"Dr. Ellman and the staff at Southwestern Eye institute are incredible! I recently had cataract removal surgery and astigmatism correction. The surgery was a breeze and over before I knew it! Recovery has been very easy. For the first time in over 50 years I can see clearly without wearing glasses. The service is excellent and compassionate. I gladly give my highest recommendation!"

"After suffering from cataracts for many years, my mother went here for surgery. They were attentive, kind, and gentle. My mother has gone from having seriously impaired vision and needing glasses her entire life to 20/25 vision in just over a week. My entire family is thrilled with the treatment we received here, and will trust them with any other procedures we may need in the future."

"My 90-year-old mother came here in 2015 to have cataracts removed and I was impressed with the doctors and technicians. So when I was diagnosed with possible glaucoma in 2018, I came here. Very caring and compassionate staff, knowledgeable doctors and technicians. I highly recommend Southwest Eye Institute!"
