Testimonials About Dr. Franz Marie Cruz​

Ms. Gladys Cuan Sta. Rosa Laguna

“When I visited Peregrine Eye and Laser Institute, Dr. Franz Cruz recommended that I undergo MRI Scan based on my initial eye consultation. Turns out I had a small tumor in my brain causing my right vision to be affected. I am so thankful that Dr. Franz suggested the MRI scan as it resulted into an early diagnosis of my tumor, so my left eye was salvaged. Knowledgeable, kind and very approachable. That’s how I can describe Dr. Franz Marie Cruz.”
