Reviews
I was so pleased to receive such a quick response to check both of my eyes for torn retinas on same day. I have been going to Dr. Doering since 2015. He has been thorough and accommodating. I realize he has alot of patients and performs many surgeries daily, which causes sometime a delay for those waiting. This is not a criticism for it can't be helped. Thank you, Dr. Doering for your giving me your time to ask you questions when I need an answer.

Dr. Doering has treated me for retinal tears and angle closure glaucoma in both eyes. I am very grateful to Dr. Doering and his nurse, Brenda for their kindness and expertise in recognizing and treating my eye problems, thus protecting my eyesight..
I was new to the area thought it was an emergency I was given an appointment the same day within an hour experience was exceptional
I have been seeing Dr. Hazelton for several years. All of my visits have been informative.
Great service
Makes complex issues understandable.
Magnificent. I would highly recommend to my family and friends.
Has performed several procedures on my eyes. The most recent was for a detached retina. Always excellent experiences
Because of a bad auto accident years ago, I get very nervous and tense when It is an eye doctor I am going to see. Dr. Doerning and his nurses made me un-tense and relax. They explained each little detail and allowed me the time I needed to relax. I love Dr. D’s humor!!
Great staff, friendly professional diagnosed the issue and corrected it in the office.
I am grateful for the practices on call physician, Dr Hazelton who consulted with my son on the phone with the concern of a possible detached retina. The staff accommodated me by working me into the next day schedule where I was seen by Dr Doering. He was able to immediately allay any concern about a detached retina. He did diagnose narrow-angle glaucoma and explained how it was occurring and a plan for treatment. Again, thankful for his expertise and time given to see me.
