I' ve seen Dr. Harris for at least ten years. He is careful and thorough and very competent, one of the best. He caught my macular degeneration onset and this year caught an acceleration in my left eye. He immediately referred me to a retinologist. who is now treating that eye. I will see him again next spring and will get his opinion about both eyes.

Dr Harris is an exceptional dr. He’s very good at what he does. The reason I’m writing this review however is because of the long wait times when you have an appointment. I found out he books 3-4 patients for the same time. We have had to sit in the waiting room up to 2 plus hours past our appointment time. The wait once you get back there is just as bad. We had a 9 am appointment today and by the time Dr Harris came in to the exam room it was 12:50pm. It’s like this every single time you go. So if you have to see him, be pr... read more

First visit to Dr. Harris. I waited almost a year to make this review to make sure that I was looking at the visit logically and still felt the same way. Dr. Harris came to the small room with 3 attendees. As he did his exam, he used some terminology with which I was not familiar. I asked him to explain; he ignored me and talked to the attendees. He only spoke to me briefly, and spoke mainly with the attendees that he brought with him, using medical speak and ignoring me. I asked again, and he told me he would explain at the... read more

Wait is too long, 1 to 3 hours each appointment. After having a corneal transplant, my eye is worse.

I have been seeing Dr Harris for over 20 years. I had Fuch’s Dystrophy, and have had several transplants. There have been complications (due to my own issues, not his), and he has diagnosed them and turned things around each time. The best testimony I can give is that I CAN SEE!

Dr Harris is an exceptional doctor. And I would not go to anyone else. The only complaint I have is about the length of time spent in the waiting room. It has been anywhere between one and three hours I understand that he is popular and busy, but why book three patients for every appointment slot?

I had a cornea transplant a year ago by Dr. Harris. He is the most professional and most courteous gentleman you will ever meet. He is the best. I am certainly glad to be under his care. I highly recommend him. My transplant was flawless, and I am doing really well. He is a very thorough and detailed doctor.

I suffer from a severe alkali burn to my left eye I obtained from an injury at work. Dr. Harris and his staff have been very kind and very professional in all aspects of their duties. I personally have never experienced such good attitudes and intelligence at any other medical facility. If anyone ever has a major eye injury, I highly recommend Dr. Harris and his staff.
