I sought help for my dry eyes and heard excellent feedback about Dr. Sal, so I scheduled an appointment. I'm delighted I did! The entire staff was highly professional and attentive from the moment I arrived. Dr. Sal was knowledgeable, thorough, and compassionate and provided valuable advice on easing my symptoms and protecting my eyes from direct air and heat. The process can be challenging, but he made it effortless. I'm grateful to Dr. Sal and wholeheartedly recommend him to others.
