Can of you Pacenos recommend an ophthalmologist, preferably English speaking .

I'm having a dark spot on my left retina and am afraid it maybe a hemorrage or detachment.

Hate to have to go all the way to Sacramento.

The building






His sign





Phone numbers for appt




And he even has a spot reserved for his clients. Right behind this ever so slightly green curb, is a spot for us in a slightly lighter green. Our first day here, Les parked in the doc's spot, thinking it was reserved for us. Along came Mr. Cop and I see Les all flustered, talking to him loudly, running in to get the rental contract that says we have parking........calling me out to help pleeeeeez .....the cop smiles and says, no ticket today (although he did have the ticketbook in hand). Whew .... Really nice of the guy to understand that it was a legitimate mistake.
