This is a well-deserved honor for Dr. Sakovitz. He has been my optometrist for quite a few years and he is truly dedicated to helping others. And, at his own expense, I might add.

For those of you who may not be aware... the compensation that he and other optometrists receive for a complete eye exam for a medicaid patient is $28.00!!!!! $28.00!!!!

Something is drastic wrong with the way our country is headed. Does anyone else see it??

He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
