Patient Reviews
Mar 07, 2024
Dr. Destafeno did corrective eye surgery on my son and cataract surgery on me. His level of confidence in what he does is beyond reassuring. Not only is he attentive to you during each visit, and surgery, his staff is by far one of the best! The office staff and surgical staff are professional and down to earth. They call you back in a timely manner and answer all questions, and I had alot, which put me at ease. I wish I found them sooner!!! Thank you for all you have done for my family.
