"The great thing about being an eye physician is that I can help improve the lives of a high percentage of the people I see," says Dr. Crawford. "It’s important to me that every patient feels satisfied with our interaction and that they’ve had all their concerns addressed. Communication is a high priority, and I have enjoyed establishing many rewarding long term relationships with my patients.”
