Patient Reviews
May 18, 2024
After hearing good things about her, I chose Dr. Handwerger from several ophthalmologists after consulting with her about having cataract surgery. I was impressed by her professionalism and kind manner and her help with my decision-making for my best lens options. The experiences I had with Dr. Handwerger and her staff were excellent from start to finish - through consultation, testing, pre-surgery, surgery, and post-surgery. And I couldn't be happier with the outcome. I highly recommend Dr. Handwerger for ophthalmology.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
