August 24, 2023MORAN EYE CENTERExcellent. Great explanations
August 23, 2023MORAN EYE CENTERAs I said, once the assistant was done with me I sat in the damn room for about an hour before the doctor got to the room. That was way too long.
August 21, 2023MORAN EYE CENTERVery pleased! Excellent Dr.!
August 21, 2023MORAN EYE CENTERUnless I got mixed up I just made a positive post about Dr. Mamalis in the prior post. Please use that. I loved Dr. Mamalis
August 21, 2023MORAN EYE CENTERHe is efficient, knowledgeable, kind. He listens and gives feedback. He tells you what he sees. Very hyoid doctor.
August 20, 2023MORAN EYE CENTERConsistently excellent care in the years I have been his patient.
August 20, 2023MORAN EYE CENTERKnowledgeable and able to relate treatment to patients in understanding way.
