Visited to determine which ILE lenses were appropriate for me. He and his entire staff were friendly, knowledgeable and thorough. He answered all questions fully and made a recommendation based on prior eye surgery. Now I just am waiting to get the surgery!
The staff were very kind and professional, I was given some unexpected news about my vision and Dr. Hollingshead explained my diagnosis and what needed to be done in a very calm and easy to understand manner. I feel very confident that he will restore my vision with the most positive outcome. His staff were all kind an pleasant, a very positive atmosphere.
From the appointment desk, waiting time, various personnel visits, to Dr HOLLINGSHEAD check up was a delightful, easy, comfortable experience. I would most certainly, Highly Recommend this Doctor. Thank For Your Caring!
A truly remarkable experience from start to finish. The staff was attentive and compassionate, and the surgeon's expertise was evident throughout the process. My vision is now perfect, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome.
