Dr. Salib and his staff are very professional and friendly. They seem to have the latest technology and are very thorough. I did not, however, think that the first person who did my eye check was very careful or that she had even looked at my file, as she kept "forgetting" my vision issues.

He and his staff were wonderful. Perfect!
Verified patient
Because the doctor was fitting me in to his busy schedule in order to accommodate me, I had to wait about 30 minutes. He also went out of his way to accommodate me for 2 other appts. before I had to leave town: for one appt. he had to come in early and the other appt. was during his lunch time. I feel I had very good care. He's also a nice man and his staff is competent and supportive as well.
