It was an amazing journey back to being able to see better than I have since childhood!

Dr. Murphy made me feel comfortable in proceeding with cataract surgery on both eyes. She took the time to explain everything and did thorough examinations on my eyes. I felt very secure and certain that my result would be good. They were actually amazing and I am thankful to have had her take care of me.

she seems to be very knowledgeable and extremely confident in her abilities. Explains what she is going to do and why she is doing it. Both pre-op and post-op. Both Dr Murphy and her staff have pleasant and upbeat personalities.

I can see clearly, for once in my life, without glasses!

I have worn glasses since I was 9 years old. Within a hour after cataract surgery I could see great. I had almost no down time, too. Also the staff at Tucson Surgery Center was caring and attentive. I whole heartedly recommend Dr. Murphy if you are in need of this surgery. It has been a fabulous success!

Outstanding Cataract Surgeon

I did extensive research on Tucson ophthalmologists before I decided Dr Murphy would be my cataract surgeon. She communicated extremely well and I felt very confident going into the surgery. Prior to surgery, I was very near-sighted and post surgery I'm 20/20 in both eyes and glasses free! The entire experience from beginning to end was wonderful and I would highly recommend Dr. Murphy and her staff.

Genius! Eyesight is better than ever!

Dr. Murphy was meticulous in her exam on my eyes. The first surgery on my left eye yesterday was a success. I can now see my computer screen clearly! I call it miraculous compared to what my vision was in that eye only two days ago.

Very pleased with her be very thorough examination.

I will refer all my friends and family to her. I am so pleased and blessed to have chosen her to take care of my visual needs. I forgot how clear the world looks and now everything is so bright and clear. Never felt any pain after surgery both times I had to go in for surgery. Great job.

Wonderful, felt very comfortable through the entire process

I very rarely rate this high, but I was so pleased with the entire process. I was with another physician service and was not comfortable with their process. I highly recommend Alma Murphy

very happy with new vision

Dr. Murphy performed cataract surgery on both eyes and I am thrilled with results. She spent a lot of time explaining the difference between mono-vision lenses and blended vision lenses, and why blended vision would be a better choice for me. I like that she asked about my career, lifestyle, and activities when assessing my vision. The staff is also very friendly and efficient. Convenient midtown office location and I never spent an inordinate amount of time waiting in office.

Excellent Doctor! A Keeper!

Dr. Murphy was wonderful. I couldn't believe her kindness and caring over and above my eye issues. I have a very bad back and need a special brace as well as position for surgery. Dr Murphy went out of her way to make sure I was comfortable during my surgery, using extra things to make me comfortable.

Her office staff was wonderful, very polite and friendly, willing to help. They changed one of my appts, when I needed a different day, no questions asked!

I would recommend Dr Murphy to anyone. You won't be disappointed if you decide to go there;.

Dr Murphy is kind, considerate, willing to listen closely, and brilliant. I have never experienced such a world class, worry-free and reassuring medical experience in my life. It is hard to imagine anyone delivering a better more wholesome medical experience than Dr Murphy and her team. Thank you!
