“I will definitely be taking my grandmother back to this office. With all the difficulties that I have endured since I was granted guardianship of my grandmother has been very challenging and her sudden dementia diagnosis. Office staff was so kind and patient with her. Communication means so much to me and I really appreciate how the physician and staff explained everything so well for you to understand. Thank you for making our first visit with your office an experience to remember. If you are looking for someone to listen to you, some who cares about your health, someone who is willing to accommodate and go above and beyond for you, then Michigan Eye Care Institute is the place. ”
