Patient Reviews
Feb 03, 2023
I was fortunate to squeeze in to see Dr Connolly after my optometrist said I may have cataracts. The physician assistant Hazel was very professional and efficient, putting me at ease while putting me through a variety of tests for my eyes. Dr Connolly then spent over a half hour walking through my history, doing a few additional tests, then sharing her opinion and making suggestions. Overall it was a perfect experience. Dr Connolly’s strong academic background (Harvard med school, residency at UCSF) combined with her 35 years of practice gave me a lot of confidence. Will return for sure, for periodic checkups.
