I am very fortunate to have Dr Cherney as my retinal doctor. He is the best doctor that I've ever had. He's always willing to talk about my problems for as long as I need. He has the ability to give my eye injection with a minimum amount of pain. I'm not sure I could have these injections if he was not giving them.
