Our Doctors
Pierre R. Alfred, MD - Ophthalmologist
Giving people a clear choice in vision care
"I was drawn to ophthalmology because it gives me the opportunity to help people improve, enhance and protect their vision. But I like the idea that I'm restoring more than patients' vision. I'm restoring their ability to interact and appreciate the world around them - their loved ones and friends, the beauty of nature and the ability to see it all clearly. And I love the fact that we offer the most advanced leading-edge technology in western Massachusetts - to give patients an even clearer choice for their total vision care."
