I've been coming to this practice prior to Dr. Spellman, and feel like this has been very smooth. My children came here from birth into adulthood and have been well cared for.

Dr. Spellman quickly identified the problem with vision in my right eye. He proposed a Yag Capsulotomy to correct the blurry vision and then preformed the procedure
