I am so grateful to be Dr Long's patient. Over the years, my issues have become more complicated and probably consume more of her time. She is patient, professional & very caring. I have complete confidence in her and don't mind waiting as long as it takes to be seen. [...]

I can't emphasize enough how much I appreciated at the time being able to see Dr. Long so quickly, as I was deeply concerned about my face shingles and, especially, my right eye. It was through her testing and exam that my glaucoma was discovered, mild in the left eye and severe in the right, so she immediately prescribed eye drops and scheduled me for laser surgery both eyes. Along with scheduling a field vision test in her office just two days later in August 19. I feel that I am in great hands with Dr. Long and her staff. I am very grateful.
