Thank you for all the help you gave me

10/11/2024

I saw Dr Wynn after my ophthalmologist couldn't find the cause of my vision loss. In one visit Dr Wynn did several tests, listened carefully to my description of what I was experiencing and diagnosis the cause. He also explained the options available. He didn't schedule extra unnecessary tests. I felt very cared for and was treated respectfully. He answered all my questions and had a very pleasant manner. I would recommend him to everyone.

Dr. Wynn, is always amazingly kind and takes time to really listen to you and hear you out. When he explains things, he does it in a way that is easy to understand and I never leave his office scratching my head and wondering what was said. He is patient and always asks if I have any questions before we wrap up our visit. I never feel rushed, and it really feels and seems like he cares about what I would like to share with him.
