We’re incredibly grateful to Cathy S. for sharing these kind words about his recent visit to our Lady Lake, Florida, location: “The practice is very patient oriented, they make you feel welcome - it starts with the front desk. Very friendly staff, they always take the time to explain procedures and answer questions. Wait times are not too long, in and out in an hour with all the testing and injections. Dr. Campagnoli, is very knowledgable and I feel very comfortable with my vision in his hands. I switched from another practice and found my home here.”
