My name is Linda Smith and I have AMD. My right eye turned wet in November 2019! Dr. MCGregor Lott was recommended by a friend since we were new to the area! I made an appointment and started treatments! The left eye went wet in 2022! Treatment (injections now in both eyes) continued! In November 2025, he suggested that I have a cataract removed from the right eye! I was skeptical, but I trusted his judgment! He was absolutely correct! He did the surgery and the sight in my right eye improved significantly! Needless to say I am scheduled for surgery on my left eye this month! He is brilliant,caring and dedicated to his profession and his patients! He also has a wonderful, caring, compassionate and competent team as well! I think very highly of all of them ❤️
Dr. Lott and his assistants are highly skilled and professional. I would recommend this business to anyone who wants trusted eye care.
Had my first appointment today. The staff was friendly and professional. Dr K was very knowledgeable and took the necessary time to explain my results of my tests. I was impressed with every aspect of the visit. I will be back for my annual visit next year. Thank you Dr K
