Meet Dr. Whitney Welder (Waite Park, MN)

I love this place; great care and so friendly! I have significant eye phobia and the providers are s... o kind and understanding. I have also been struggling for well over a year with eye dryness, irritation/strain, and migraines. I saw Dr Paradis and he was amazing. He quickly could determine that my prescription was actually too strong. He gave me a new prescription as well as additional options to address the dry eye. I have been feeling so much better.
