Reviews

"Had an emergency with one of my eyes having a Posterior Vitirous Detachment, a PVD that started on a Sunday. Monday morning I called and they got me right in to see a wonderful young doctor, Dr. Mahood. She was thorough and succinct about what was happening and how to deal with it. The best part she has a wicked sense of humor. Some may not appropriate this, for me it works. Smart, thorough, succinct, and a sense of humor, my kind of doctor."
