What Patients Say About Dr. Hershkin

I would definitely recommend Dr Hershkin, she is the best of the best. I have been her patient for fourteen years and she has managed my glaucoma pressure to a good level.
Dr. Hershkin is professional, knowledgeable, friendly and extremely caring. Thank you Dr Hershkin, you are awesome!
The office staff are friendly and professional, as is Dr. Hershkin. She is very thorough and concerned.
Glad to have changed my old doctor to Dr. Hershkin
Dr. Hershkin was also very nice and she was super thorough. She took her time with the exam and didn't push me to do anything unnecessary (more tests, purchase glasses, etc.) Maybe I lived in NYC too long but between the cleanliness, thoroughness, and kind demeanor of all staff, I would highly recommend Dr. Hershkin and her office!
