I’ve been a patient of University Optometric Group Uab since 1982. 40 years later, I am a patient of my Original doctor. She steered me through more attempts to try contacts than I can remember and was always patient with me. She has talked me through radial keratotomy And why I will still need to wear glasses after the procedure. She also cared for my mother, father, brother, niece, wife, husband (Yes, you have read that correctly), and both of my sons. At one point in my life two years back, Rather than see my regular doc associated with Uab and still teaching, I was examined by an optometrist associated with a high-end eyewear shop which I thought would be just fine. It wasn’t fine. Ending up with a $1200 pair of glasses I could only read my computer. I realized that eye exam had actually led me down a road Towards purchasing eyewear which was really worthless to me for seeing almost anything else. I could not read road signs. Lesson learned. Big mistake. Now I know why my regular eye doctor would always ask if what A was clearer or just smaller and darker then B? I don’t think I’m gonna trust my eyes, as I age to anyone outside of Uab optometric. I appreciate all of the excellent care provided these 40 years. Thank you! and Rosa, you run the whole place and always have! We all love you!
