"He was wonderful with my daughter. The first time she saw him, at age 7, she was "faking" to get glasses (but we didn't know it) and he took his time with her dealt with the situation patiently. The second time she went (age 10--she didn't need glasses!) he was still wonderful. Patient and knowledgable. Good manner with kids."

"Dr. Benjamin is the best. Always makes my daughter feel comfortable. I like how he shows an interest in her every day activities to create that level of comfort. Very personable. He doesn’t treat her as just a patient and insurance claim. The office staff is also very nice as well."
