This is an amazing group of doctors. JBER called Alaska Retinal Consultants/ARC (while I was "in the chair" at JBER), and ARC saw me as soon as I could be driven to their office the same afternoon. They fit me in (during a very busy afternoon for their office), and was very carefully checked by staff prior to seeing a doctor (who clearly/patiently discussed my eye problem). The doctor performed an "in-house" laser procedure the same day. I was followed by these wonderful doctors for a few years for several reasons (both on base/JBER, and Alaska Retinal). The entire staff was always friendly (not superficial friendly, but honestly caring) and efficient. The doctors coordinated surgeries with both Alaska Retinal Consultants and with JBER. I feel extremely lucky to have seen the talented doctors at JBER, and for the help in getting a quick/necessary referral to this exceptional group for additional care. The knowledge, skill, and care shown by both JBER and Alaska Retinal Consultants have given me my vision. Sometimes, yes, I did need to wait. Sometimes, I know that unexpected events happen and "alter" planned schedules. I am extremely grateful to all the doctors who patiently shared their exceptional knowledge with me and helped me retain my vision. In the words of Colin Powell, "If you are going to achieve excellence in big things, you develop the habit in little matters. Excellence is not the exception, it is the prevailing attitude." That was obvious with all of the staff that helped me while being treated at both locations! read more
