DCA/IAD/BWI AME recommendation?
 
Just moved here, looking for an AME.

Preferably I'd like to go to a one that uses the old eye chart on the wall vs the machine. Hate those things.

Thanks for the info. I live in Maryland, but would go anywhere for the right guy.

Avon Grove Medical Center in Avondale Pennsylvania. I’ve been going there for over a decade. Great people. I live just outside of Baltimore.

Dr. Comunale (aka, the cat doctor) over in McLean VA just inside the 495... he's what your looking for.

Is Comunale still doing FC? Is he still good to go to?

Anyone know if Dr. Comunale uses the floating E, open circles, or standard letters for vision? Also, How does he conduct the hearing test? Please advise. Thanks.
