Paul C. Kang, M.D. - Gives FREE Consultations!
Come See What You've Been Missing. You Won't Believe Your Eyes!
When I went in for my LASIK consultation, I was understandably nervous. But, within the first few minutes, the staff at EDOW put me completely at ease. Not by blindly assuring me everything would be just fine, but by knowledgeably explaining exactly what the procedure entailed and what I would expect before, during and after the surgery. By explaining the risks and how they combat them, and just generally displaying their knowledge on the subject in a way that the common "lay person" could understand (without all the medical gobbledy-gook!), I felt I was making the best choice about who I was trusting with my eyes and my vision. The doctor and staff took the time to make sure all my questions were answered and made themselves available should any arise between my consultation and surgery.
During the actual procedure, the surgeon explained what he was doing step-by-step, how much longer it would take and what to expect... the Valium helped, too! But mostly, I simply felt that I was in very capable hands, and being operated on by a person who truly cared about what was best for me and my eyes.
