Patient Reviews
May 04, 2019
I have seen Dr Scher several times regarding my double-vision. I liked him immediately. He is very friendly, cordial & answered all my questions each visit. I am preparing for “alignment surgery” now. I am happy & excitedly looking forward to the relief from prisms in my glasses.
