Dr. Telega got to the root of a long time problem that I've been having that no other doctor was unable to diagnose. Equipment and exam is thorough. Up front pricing easily obtained if not using insurance. I would highly recommend.
Such a pleasant experience, easy to schedule a routine checkup as a new patient, easy to park, kind staff, knowledgable doctor who was efficient with my time but didn't sacrifice being thorough.
I last minute needed to bring my baby and everyone was INCREDIBLY chill about it – I was so worried and deeply appreciated the complete lack of fuss.
Looking (ha) forward to returning next year!
I began going to this practice because I was assured that a complete exam would be done. I’d been in other places that planned to measure my vision to prescribe glasses only. I do need that, but i know that there are many serious issues that can be discovered when your pupils are dilated and a complete exam is done, so I will not accept the basic exam for glasses. This may be more important as a person ages, I’m not sure, but I have family members with serious problems that I hope to avoid (or minimize, if they do become a concern.)
I’ve been very pleased with the professionalism and care that I’ve received here.
