I thought my visit was excellent. No waiting time, everyone very professional. Dr Potter and staff explained all procedures, friendly and didn't feel rushed. The office was also very impressive with various stations to keep exam moving along. I would highly recommend Dr. Potter. Myself and two daughters have been patients for over 10 years.

My husband and I were very pleased with Dr. Potter's examination of our son today. He was very thorough, clear, engaging and communicative. He took his time to provide us with the most comprehensive diagnosis of our son's eyes. We plan to go to Dr. Potter for our family's eye needs.
