When I was diagnosed with open-angle glaucoma I specifically came to see Dr. Lisa Rosenberg on a friend’s recommendation. Dr. Rosenberg explained to me that I would have to have a procedure called a trabeculectomy–she was very thorough and caring in her explanation of this procedure. I have been treated really well here. Dr. Rosenberg’s vast knowledge and experience along with her sensitive delicate touch will always keep me coming back. – Susan
