Every staff member was helpful, courteous and kind. Dr. Cervantes immediately made me feel comfortable, gave me ample opportunity to ask questions and did not make me feel like he was in a hurry to see his next patient.

I very highly recommend Dr. Cervantes and his professional staff! read less

Recently I noticed the lights at home being dimmer than I remember. At the same time I was having difficulty driving at night. The staff at CT EYE SPECIALISTS are all friendly and very caring. DR Cervantes gave me confidence in him that I could trust him with my eyes. He explained the different lenses,and procedures as well as the expected results. I am super happy. For the first time since I was 12 I don't need glasses. The astigmatism is gone, and everything is bright the way it should be. I can't believe I waited so long to have it done. I am driving at night again with no problem. Dr Cervantes did my surgery perfectly and I am forever grateful. If you have Cataracts or other eye problems this is who to see. As a side note I had the surgery at GRIFFIN hospital, which I found to be efficient and extremely well staffed with super nice people. If you are lucky enough to have Adrienne as your nurse she is the best. read less
