Dr. Murri is an excellent doctor. He made my entire LASIK experience go smoothly. I was a little nervous before my initial appointments. Dr. Murri listened to me and acknowledged my concerns. He took the time to answer all of my questions and made sure LASIK was the right option for me. He then talked me through everything that would happen.
I felt well prepared on the actual day. I had complete confidence in Dr. Murri. Before and during the surgery he made sure I was at ease. I was even provided with a blanket so I wouldn’t get cold. The surgery itself was short. I only felt some mild discomfort, which was to be expected.
My recovery went exactly as Dr. Murri said it would. My vision is better now than it has ever been in my life. I am constantly amazed at how well I can see without having to deal with contacts or glasses.
I am glad I trusted Dr. Murri with my eyes. He is professional, knowledgeable, and skilled. I have recommended him to many of my friends and colleagues.
Love working with Dr Murri. He is caring and empathetic.
