Reviews

I have been to many eye doctors and Dr. Kuntz is the best by far. He truly cares about his patients and is very gentle. I have never met a more sincere and caring doctor, we drive over 3 hours to see him. He is the best in the dry eye field I believe as well. As a dry eye sufferer himself he totally relates to the pain that we suffer and goes over all of the different treatment options available
