It WAS EXCELLENT. DOCTOR FINLAY ALONG WITH THE ENTIRE STAFF IN PARTICULAR, VINCENT, WERE COURTEOUS AND ACCOMMODATING. DR. FINLAY HAS AN INORDINATE HAVE 'PINPOINT' A PATIENT'S EYEGLASS AND CONTACT LENS PRESCRIPTIONS WITH COMPLETE PRECISION. HER ARRAY OF TECHNOLOGICAL EQUIPMENT ALSO ENABLES HER TO GLAUCOMA OR PROBLEM MORE QUICKLY THAN ANY OTHER OPHTHALMOLOGIST WHO HAS TREATED ME. ONLY SUPERLATIVES APPLY TO DR. FINLAY'S PRACTICE.
I APOLOGIZE FOR THE POOR PENMANSHIP. I WAS DILATED WHILE FILLING OUT HIS FORM.
