Review for Dr. Alfred
I’ve been seeing Dr. Alfred for years for various eye concerns and he is just wonderful. He is warm and friendly and takes the time to explain tests and results everything to me. I wish all doctors were like this. Highly recommend.

Review for Dr. Alfred
Dr. Alfred is professional, thorough and friendly. You have his full and calm attention. You just feel like you are in good hands, and you are! My cataract surgery was fantastic. My vision is perfect for the first time in 60 years.

Review for Dr. Alfred
Reported parents for not vaccinating their kids all while profiting from the childhood vaccine schedule. Ask him to sign a document, that if your child is harmed, he will be held personally liable. Needs to have his license taken away.
