We are pleased to announce that Dr Katherine Pratt is seeing patients on Thursdays at the West Coast Glaucoma Centre for optometric assessments. She is available for patients who do not already have an optometrist for general eye care needs.
Thanks to the help of Dr Robert Woods seeing glaucoma follow-up patients one day per week, we are now able to see all our glaucoma patients in a timely manner.
