Cannot say enough good things about this place! Dr Munger is AMAZING! He restored my dogs eyesight after being told by my regular vet that there was nothing that could be done.

Report
I went to this ophthalmology group on May 3, 2022. My vet referred me to Dr. Munger but he no longer works in this office since he is in the Grapevine office now. They made my appointment with Dr. Ratner. Little did I know but she wasn't even board-certified and was inexperienced. My dog is 12 years old and it seemed like he lost his vision rather quickly. She did an exam on him and proceeded to tell me that he either had sards or a brain tumor and there was nothing they could do for him.
She gave me no hope at all and she hadn't even done the sards test! They scheduled the test for the next week but I canceled it because this doctor gave me a very uneasy feeling and I do not want her touching my dog ever again. I'm going to another ophthalmology group in Dallas to have him tested because the doctor there has over 20 years experience.

Dr. Jeff Studer, is really wonderful and caring. He crated a good plan for my Cockapoo's only remaining eye when he lens detached likely due to old age.
