Dr Contento was not only friendly, but very experienced in the exam of my eyes. She explained everything to me that was normal and not normal, and I was not rushed out for the next patient. I would highly recommend Dr Contento for regular check ups and if necessary, a visit in the event that something is wrong with your eye sight. She is very personable and she made me feel at ease with the exam.
