“Dr. Pizio was great. I had retina surgery in January, and my doctor referred me to her. He could not have recommended a better doctor. She made the surgery effortless for me, and the results are amazing. Her offce is professional, well run, and exudes a sense of care and interest lacking at other places. All my questions and concerns were handled professionally, and I was made to feel important. I would recommend her to anyone seeking cataract surgery.”
