Patient Reviews
Jan 24, 2020
Dr. Brightwell is a fabulous doctor. He has been spot on with his diagnosis. He has done my cataract surgery and repaired tendons in my eyelid. I have been going to him for over 10 years. I have recommended him to a number of family members and friends. I wouldn't go to anyone else. The staff is so nice and helpful.
