An amazing doctor and an efficient and friendly staff, that's Citrus Eye Care for you! I have been under Dr. Surti's care for over 8 years now. I trust her implicitly with my eye care. Dr. Surti performed YAG laser procedures on both my eyes last year, and the results were simply great! I visited her recently for my eye check up, and as always, Dr. Surti made sure all is well with my eyes, including ordering tests for a thorough evaluation. I couldn't be happier having her as my opthalmologist!

I do not like going to the doctors like so many other people, but I do have to say, everyone that I encountered at Citrus Valley Eyecare were such nice people. I really have a thing about my eyes to the point where even putting eye drops is unpleasant for me, but Connie H. was very patience with me and understanding of how I felt. She was able to provide a calm demeanor and helped me feel safe when she knew I was uncomfortable. Connie H. is top grade in her care for her patients. When selecting frames, Patty was able to provide excellent service. It was if Patty looked at my face and knew what
