Patient Reviews
Apr 01, 2020
I called Dr Gillies after receiving a recommendation for his practice. My kindergartener had accidentally stabbed me in the eye with a sharp object. I was in pain and it was in the midst of the MA business shut down due to coronavirus. Even though the office was technically closed, Dr Gillies called me back quickly asked me a series of questions and agreed to drive over an hour to get into the office that evening to make sure my eye was okay. He was smart, kind and reassuring and gave me recommendations to follow and medicine to relieve the inflammation in my eye. It speaks volumes that he would come in after hours during the middle of a massive health crisis to make sure I was okay. I would highly recommend him and will be back again for all of my annual eye Exams!
