Your Child’s Pink Eye May Not Need an Antibiotic
Most cases of pink eye, or conjunctivitis, do not require antibiotics but are often misdiagnosed, making the infection worse.

Cataract Surgery Restores Vision Clarity
June is Cataract Awareness Month. About 24 million Americans 40 or older have cataracts, and surgery is the only effective treatment.
This facility is staffed with professional, caring, knowledgeable individuals who are always friendly, helpful and kind! They definitely get a 5 star review! The reason I gave 4 stars was because of the waiting involved in getting a procedure done at this facility. At least 5 people are scheduled to arrive at the same time which puts you in a pecking order for when your procedure will be done. If you get there first at say 8am, then most likely you will have your procedure done first before the other 4 people that arrived at the same time, if all goes well. At other facilities, you have your own scheduled appointment time, so a lot less waiting. But overall I was very satisfied with the care I received! Great people working there!
