Dr. Palmer has hands-down the best bedside manner of any doctor I’ve ever visited. I saw him for an evaluation regarding a potential eye condition, which can be a stressful experience. From the moment he walked in, he put me completely at ease. He listened attentively, answered all my questions, and handled both the examination and his explanations with genuine care and respect. I felt completely supported.

Reviews
Dr Palmer was always great, did both eyes cataracts, Staff and phone service terrible. Ileana, Front desk has a attitude problem. The information on answering service does not match information give at front desk, then Ileana wants to argue about it.
Dr. Palmer is extremely thorough, kind and gentle. I am grateful to his exemplary staff, especially Betty, the discharge receptionist/ bookkeeper and Claudia, his experienced, reassuring technician. Both women are compassionate, thoughtful and incredibly caring. I am grateful to be a patient here.
