All 4 of the staff and Doctor Cotter were friendly and showed concern about caring for me in lieu of looking like they needed to rush off to the next patient. Very good experience!

He was very informed to me about my surgery, but I didn't see him in surgery. I would love to see my Dr before he does surgery but I didn't. Otherwise everything was very good. Thank you.

Dr. Cotter is very kind, gentle; extremely professional, with a wry sense of humor. Can put anyone at ease. I am receiving excellent care from him and his very congenial staff members, and highly recommend Dr. Cotter and ECVA to others in search of the best eye and vision care.
