Was under the care of Zelina Correa who I feel is a good ophthalmologist. My issue lies with whoever does her scheduling. Be aware, you may have VERY lengthy wait times (5 hrs in not uncommon). I eventually gave up on U of M when someone cancelled the appointment Dr Correa made for me and failed to notify me. Never again...
