Karla Johns was amazing! Explained about my reading vision issue so now I understand why I I'm having issues.

The doctor is a nice person, but she did not tell me about what test was showing. Did not respond to my comments about my glasses were not the proper prescription, and I was trying to see her for over a year to get documentation of that... Had no explanation about why I could not get seen or worked in. If she wasn't retiring I would change doctors definitely. She also assumed that I knew what flashes were... I looked it up after the appointment and found I was having flashes.

There was no wait time and everyone was friendly and helpful. I cannot think of a single thing that could have been improved upon.

I have been a patient of Dr. Karla Johns for almost 40 years. She has cared for eyes and their issues as they changed throughout the years. She always listens to my concerns and answers all my questions. I have been fortunate to be under her care and a true blessing to call her my doctor.
