5 Stars from our Mt. Airy Patients

We have been seeing Dr. Schwartz for about 10 years for eye care. He is an expert in orthoK and helped my son to literally see again. I remember my son's reaction after getting the treatment.. he said everything looked like 3D and he could see the outlines of things. It was the best feeling as a parent. Since then, he has helped our whole family. He and his staff are friendly and personable. They really care about the patients and put you at ease. They even took an hour taking time to show my daughter how to put her contacts in. We never feel rushed.. very indiviualized care and expertise. Recently, my son had an eye emergency and the office was closed. Dr. Schwartz contacted me within minutes of calling, diagnosed my son through pictures, and had a treatment to him right away. He is extremely attentive and dedicated. We highly recommend Mt. Airy Medical Eye Center for all your family's eye care.

Dr. Schwartz and his staff are wonderful! Dr. Schwartz is extremely knowledgeable in his field and I was recommended to see him by my previous eye doctor who himself sees Dr. Schwartz. He is extremely patient and takes the time to explain every option available. My contacts are very specialized and Dr. Schwartz made every tweak possible to make sure they were the right fit for me. I was ready to give up on contacts before seeing Dr. Schwartz. I highly recommend him to everyone!

Dr Schwartz has been amazing in fitting my contact lenses. I've never worn contacts before and having keratoconus I was concerned going to hard contacts but a few visits he was able to get them to fit perfectly and allow me to have 20/20 vision. Highly recommend his practice for all your eye care needs.

Dr. Schwartz has gone above and beyond to be sure that my complete eye health and wellness have been made first priority. He is extremely knowledgable and personable. His clinical acumen is to be admired and respected. Just Wow. I never was made to wait. And if ever I needed to contact him or his staff, they were super speedy in responding by my inquiries. The office is inviting and his welcoming staff members are friendly and helpful in every way. Truly, I would recommend this medical office to anyone seeking answers to better their health and do so in a very personalized way. I can't stress enough how Dr. Schwartz is amazing! He is great with his patients and spends as much time as needed with you to get all questions answered and also just to get to know you. You are not just a number to him!

After having 2 cornea transplants and was still having problems seeing, I just excepted it wouldn't get any better. I warned Dr Boaz on my first visit that I'm a difficult patient because of problems with my cornea. Dr Boaz has taken time to make sure that I could see better and also is very concerned that there's no damage to my corneas. I'm wearing scleral contacts and my vision is wonderful! I'm so appreciative for the time he has taken with me and the fact that he really cares! He has done what no one else has done. He's given me 20/20 vision, which I thought I'd never get again! Not only is Dr Boaz a great eye Dr, he also has a great staff. Thank you! I can see!
