Patient Reviews
Apr 11, 2023
I found Dr. Christian to be very professional and pleasant. There was no pressure whatsoever. I live in Oregon and wanted the best I could find on the West Coast. Dr. Christian was very thorough. I am amazed. I wore glasses for over 40 years and today I have better than 20/20 vision. Without glasses I can read, see close and far away. At night I can see depth when with glasses I could only see dark. I was measured for cataracts using 7 very sophisticated pieces of equipment. Dr. Christian removed my cataracts using a laser in a specialty cataract Center that uses only the latest equipment. If you care about your eyes why not go to the best?

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.
