Patient Reviews
Mar 02, 2021
Oh, no! I can't see; oops, I had my eyes closed! Just kidding! Dr. Wendel did an outstanding job! He explained everything very well on both cataract surgeries, which were not identical. Both surgeries went extremely well and he is a caring and understanding ophthalmologist! He answered any and all questions I had before, during and after the surgeries. I would highly recommend Dr. Wendel for any eye problems; he is an outstanding person as well as an outstanding ophthalmologist!
