“I am most gratified by the ability to fulfill God’s desire in my life to help others see. I am happiest when those who can hardly see come out of surgery giving thanks to God for their new vision. I always try to be friendly, compassionate and caring toward my patients. My hope is to give them the best vision possible to meet their daily needs. I believe my best quality as a practitioner is my faith and belief that I am doing God’s will.”
