Dr. Ashenhurst is like the Gandalf of eyeballs—wise, calm, and totally unfazed by my chaotic vision history. I came in with eyes that felt like they were auditioning for a fog machine commercial, and he handled it with the kind of precision that made me wonder if he secretly builds telescopes in his spare time. No fluff, no rush, just pure focus and a sprinkle of dry humor that made the whole thing oddly enjoyable. Calgary, you’ve got a legend. My vision’s back, and so is my ability to spot squirrels from across the park.
