Patient Reviews
Jul 27, 2023
Dr Garrett is the very Best! He removed my cataract on 7-25-23; I will soon have an appointment to remove the second cataract. I was very anxious. These were my EYES. Everything went beautifully. Today (the day after my surgery) I see better than I ever have seen in the operated eye. Dr Garrett is a Master at his art and science.
