Dr. Ryan Walsh is a superb ophthalmologist, in fact I'd even say he's the best of several different eye specialists I've seen since Jan. 2024. All of his staff (and an assisting Resident) were exceptional.
Dr Walsh was one of the best specialists I have encountered in my 77 years of experience, from both a clinical and customer standpoint.
