Patient Reviews
May 06, 2022
Patient since early 2000s (family and personal care) Respectful practitioner. Attentive to urgencies. Open to any questions. I find it unusual to meet a doctor interested in visual health beyond prescribing visual aides such as glasses. For example, he might look at vision therapy for strengthening weak coordination between the two eyes. When I was experiencing strange flashing (like a snowfall on a clear night), he immediately referred me to a practice that could address the issues head-on. I make an effort to ask Dr. Sherman to repeat himself if I don't understand something or can't hear his words (tends to drop the end of sentences--or maybe my hearing is weak?). A minor effort compared to how I benefit from his work.
