As this was my first eye exam, I was pretty anxious, and Dr. Latter and his team were professional, patient, and reassuring in their office practices. Dr. Latter has a calming presence, explains extremely well, and made sure all my questions were clearly answered. I'd recommend him to others without any reservations.

He had all the high tech equipment not always seen at other eye doctor's offices for conditions like dry eye. You get seen on a timely basis. He is knowledgable and approachable and I enjoyed my experience being evaluated for cataracts immensely. I'm in good hands.

Since it was not your typical day, with a Dr preparing for vacation, I wouldn't be giving a fair evaluation. The office staff seemed under staffed first thing in the morning though it got better while I was inside with the doctor. The doctor seemed a little rushed that morning as I was told patience were pushing to see him before his vacation. I am hoping that the atmosphere will seem less rushed when the doctor returns and full staff will be in the office and that they will not overbook patients in a day.
