Comment - “ I hIghly recommend Dr Brien ”
I highly recommend Dr. Brien. She is very professional, helpful, caring and kind. She explains things in easy to understand terms. She keeps a close check on my eyes due to my diabetes, the steroids I have had to take for bronchitis and past eye surgeries I have had. She has helped me heal and stop the pain from dry eyes. She is working with me now to schedule cataract surgery. I am so thankful she has been there since my eye doctor of 23 years retired.
