Dr. Chaum explained my eye condition well. He provided his own opinion so that an unnecessary procedure did not have to be done.

I did not see Dr. Chaum. The person I saw did not identify herself. She was very abrupt and brushed off the concerns I had.

I had a few questions and comments about my condition and Dr Chaum took his time to explain some very important information that after 57 years of care no one had previously shared with me before. I believe it's information was helpful and I am going to use it to the best of my ability

I appreciate thorough explanations. If I don't understand I feel free to ask questions. I was given easily understood answers to my questions.
