Doctor seemed very knowledgeable, very confident in his diagnosis. Took the time to explain glaucoma causes and effects to my mother and myself. Went in thinking it was a simple eye infection and left with a very serious diagnosis that might have been overlooked otherwise. Both Dr. Hauser and Dr. Helsing saw my mother. Both were very nice, and Alexis (their assistant) was wonderful and friendly.
