It is my distinct pleasure to recommend Dr. Philip Haiman for the Doctor’s Choice Award. I have known Dr. Haiman personally and professionally since completing our residency together in 2001. Over the years we have collaborated on cases, and I can say with no uncertainty that he is clinically competent, and provides excellent patient care. In 2002, Dr. Haiman founded Sunrise Eye Care, where he is adept with multi-system eye disease, dry eye management, and difficult contact lens fittings. Dr. Haiman continually strives for excellence, by staying current with research, evolving technologies, and practice guidelines. Personally, Dr. Haiman’s work ethic is unquestionable. His demeanor is pleasant and is well received by those he has works with. It is therefore with my upmost pleasure, that I recommend Dr. Haiman. Combining his talents, know how, creativity, and clinical expertise he would be an exceptional recipient of this award.
