Dr. Haller and his staff were amazing! They saw me as an emergency basis and were so good about squeezing me in. Dr. Haller was perfect from the first visit and the treatment. The drops he gave worked like a charm and I felt better immediately. He was also so nice to my son and my mom as well and he is now the doctor for all three of us. He and his staff are extremely caring and knowledgeable. The office has a homie feeling to it and the staff is so kind.
