Dr. Mines and the staff have been very kind and attentive as I managed an unexpected need for several eye treatments. I would highly recommend him! He is very attentive, listens to your concerns, and is authentically invested in your healing process. I am thankful to each staff member for their level of professionalism.

Dr. Mines is a top notch practitioner. Yes, sometimes the wait times are long. However, I was one of the emergencies he worked into his schedule— so I understand that situations present themselves which he does not have control over. Extremely attentive to patients; you get 100 per cent of his time and attention. He is always so courteous-apologized and thanks you for waiting. How many physicians do that. So grateful a practitioner with his experience is local to our atea

Dr Mines is the best doctor I have seen. He is very caring and concerned about how you feel. I would trust him with any surgery. His staff is friendly and well trained. Sometimes the wait is long but you are never rushed when talking with the doctor. Highly recommend.

I would agree with one of the other reviews concerning wait time - too long, however, once you are in the chair you will get 110% of his attention and answers to any questions - especially if they are related to tennis.....

The longest waiting times EVER. No concern for the patients time. I could see maybe once or twice, but EVERY appointment, nobody is that busy, he should be on time! Or give patients their money back!!!

Dr. Mines operated on my husband who was very apprehensive about the vision in his left eye. Dr. Mines was so thorough, professional, kind, and reassuring. His office staff is pleasant to work with. The surgery went well. Dr. Mines called me as soon as it was done then met me personally in the lobby while my husband was in recovery. I would definitely recommend.

I was referred to Dr. Mines because I could not see out of my left eye. I thought he got the best recommendation; he sent his Mom to Dr. Mines and wouldn't have sent her anywhere else. .After examination, testing, and conversation, Dr..Mines told me what was wrong, how he was going to fix it, and the estimated recovery period. I felt very confident in his skill, and he has never disappointed me. His manner is gentle and honest, and comforting. I would send my mother to him too.

My husband has been treated by several doctors for his diabetic retinopathy. Until we met Dr. Mines, all of the doctors were taking a reactive approach - waiting until bleeding occurs and then treating. As these bleeds were unpredictable, he was missing a lot of work and in danger of losing his job. It was a constant worry over whether he would wake up and be able to see. Dr. Mines is the first ophthalmologist we have seen that wanted to take a more proactive approach to his care.
