Patient Reviews
Mar 09, 2020
Always makes my appointment with Dr. Shettle an easy and informative visit regarding the health of my eyes and my vision testing. I have been seeing him for many years now and he performed cataract surgeries on both eyes that turned out just perfect. I would highly recommend and did to anyone looking for a great ophthalmologist.
