Dr. Hershberger has been treating me for the past 3.5 years. She is an amazing specialist treating my macular degeneration. I truly appreciate what Dr. H and her team have done for my vision.

I was a participant in a drug trial for four years under the care of Dr Hershberger and her wonderful staff. I had gone in for my routine eye appointment when it was discovered that I had severe wet macular degeneration. This is when I first met Yvonne and Dr. Hershberger. They explained the severity of my problem to me. Showed me scans. Showed me what was normal and what was not. Everything was explained in a manner so that I could understand the situation and what I would need to do. They answered all my questions and calmed any fears that I had. I was offered a chance to participate in a drug trial if I met the criteria. Fortunately for me I did. For the next two years I had monthly visits. Elisabeth tested my eyes. Allison would administer eye drops and do mounds of paperwork to manage my case in the study. Dr. Parihar with Tracy’s assistance would do my eye injections. The first few times were scary but the staff always helped me to relax. The final two years of the study I would have injections every two months. Over those four years other staff members would be involved in my case. Joanne would do scans and Danny would help with injections. Elizabeth remained a constant and I was always grateful for her care. She would be the first staff member to care for me each visit and she is a warm and caring person. Raymond and Joanne put me at ease during the scans. They were always friendly and would always greet me when the saw me waiting in the halls. Tracy and Dr. Parihar took the fear out of my injections. That part of the visit almost became the easiest. Dr Hershberger was there for all my visits. Checking my eyes, reviewing my scans and making sure all the endless paper work was correct. She kept me informed of my progress after every visit and because of her, the staff, and the studies she is dedicated to, my vision has improved immensely. I am very grateful to Dr. Hershberger, Dr Parihar, Yvonne, Elizabeth, Raymond, Joanne, Tracy, Danny, Erin, Allison and all the other staff members who took such good care of me during these past for years.

Dr. Hershberger has been an outstanding doctor. She has got a great crew around her. I like her direct, forward, and thorough care because I always know how my eyes are doing.
