I had an outstanding experience with Dr. Sal on my first visit to the practice. The staff was very nice from scheduling the appointment to checkout. Dr. Sal conducted a thorough exam for my annual contact prescription. He has a nice sense of humor, a great understanding of my medical history, and optimal equipment. I highly recommend Dr. Sal.
