Witlin Center For Advanced Eyecare
This is by far the best place to go for your eye care. Office staff are all wonderful and I can't speak highly enough of all the doctors there especially Dr. Hanna. She really helped with my dry eye and eye allergies. HIGHLY recommend this office! Dr. Hanna is a wonderful physician. She takes her time with the patient.

She ensures that her patients are diagnosed correctly and treats them with the best care possible. I received LASIK surgery last week from Doctor Witlin and John, they made the experience sooooo smooth. I highly recommend getting it done here. The surgery went great and I am seeing better then ever, best decision of my life!

I recently had an infection in my eye and called all over to get an emergency appointment. I called Witlin and the person who answered the phone, Alex, was extremely nice and helpful. After being turned down by 5-6 other practices, Alex was pleasant, patient and helpful. She booked an appointment for me that same day and I was seen a few hours later. Dr Worthington was very helpful! Highly recommend!

Getting PRK surgery was one of the best decisions I made regarding self care! My journey started over 3 years ago when I went to visit Dr. Worthington for serious dry eye issues to the point that I could not wear contacts for an entire day. She was super friendly and wonderful bedside manner. I had follow up visits with Dr Gershenbaum who then suggested I was eligible to get PRK surgery and that would resolve my issue with wearing contacts. He explained the procedure to me. I kept in touch with the office and its staff specifically Kim Ettenhuber who gave me all the details from the surgery and

We had a great experience. Ashley was extremely thorough, kind and patient with my sister during the initial eye exam. She explained what each step was to make her comfortable with the process. Dr. Worthington provided the same care for the more complex part of the eye exam she conducted. I was very pleased with way this office operates and would highly recommend these employees and Witlin Center for Advanced Eye Care.

Dr. Hanna is very knowledgeable! She accurately diagnosed my retinal problem and guided me to a retinal specialist who performed injections in my eye. She explained everything very clearly and helped me understand everything that was going on in my eyes. I would recommend her to anyone
