Patient Reviews
Oct 13, 2021
I saw Dr. Erik Sweet for what turned out to be a minor eye problem. He readily identified the cause of the problem, explained it to me, and provided written instructions of care. He had a gentle, patient-oriened approach and an excellent professional manner. I would be happy to see Dr. Sweet again if the need arises.
