“The office called me prior to the appointment made through Zocdoc to tell me the time I chose wasn't available. Another (better) time was available the same day, so I booked the new time. The office was clean, the staff was efficient and friendly. The doctor was an excellent listener and extremely knowledgable about my problem. A thorough eye exam and an explanation of a course of treatment for me was provided by the doctor. He told me to call him a few days later to give him an update of my condition. I highly recommend Dr. Mark Bitton!”
