Dr. Howard was excellent. He explained my options and I want this cataract surgery done as soon as possible so I have to go to SPRING HILL for the three hour visit and then I have to go to Wesley Chapel for the cataract surgery. This is because I want it done very quickly and not wait.

“Great surgeon for LASIK and PRK eye surgery”

Dr. Howard is a great eye surgeon. He takes the time to explain the procedure and his thought process to you and ensures that you are well informed prior to the procedure. He makes himself available to you well after the procedure and provides great Post-op care. He was also very accommodating to my hectic schedule and I am grateful for that. I highly recommend him.
