“I had an emergency issue and booked an appointment at 2am for a 10am appointment the same day. The office was aware of my appointment and information when I arrived and I was seen almost immediately. Dr. Burmy was SO kind and understanding and went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable during an uncomfortable time. She had another doctor take a look in case she couldn’t be there for my follow-up. She was clear in my next steps and I feel 100% confident in her hands. I had a few questions for the front desk too and they were SO NICE and helpful. I’ve definitely found my new eye doctor.”

The best eye dr experience I’ve ever had
March 15, 2023James N.Verified patient
Friendly, professional, and experienced. I had a small hole in my retina and even the retina specialist was surprised that she caught the issue. Office staff have also been kind and professional and very helpful when I had to change my appointment. I once needed immediate attention for an eye infection and was seen by another doc the same day, and he was great, too. Cannot more highly recommend Dr. Burmy and her practice.
