Fifteen years ago, I was referred to Dr. Dornic by a coworker who was highly pleased with his experience. I discovered I had Kerataconus and Dr. Dornic waa the doctor who had the experience of stabilizing my eyes with intacs. Since then, i have moved to Georgia, but each year I will travel ALL the way to Cary, NC just to see my eye doctor, Dr. Dornic. I have never had a bad experience in his office. His team operates in a smooth systematic way that keeps his patients from waiting too long to be seen. His staff has always been professional, polite, and ...
Have had awesome experience w/ Dr. Dornic he has performed cataract surgery on my dad and a couple other family members and is awesome at what he does. Most of his staff is also very friendly and helpful, my only issue is they older lady at the front desk, she is absolutely rude and dismissive. When she feels like she finished speaking to you she will start doing something else and just leave you there like an idiot. She knows nothing about insurance and will never help you get any questions answered. She picks and chooses who she treats this way and I ...
It's been 15 years since my Lasik procedure with Dr. Dornic and I still believe it's the best thing I've ever done for myself! I had it in both eyes in the summer of 2011. Still have great vision. Loved my experience and still refer people to this practice.
Had cataract surgery by Dr Dornic on November 24th 2025. Very pleased with outcome. He is very professional and skilled. Staff is great. I will recommend him to anyone.
Very good experience, four different times. Dr. Dornic is very confident in his expertise, and made me feel confident, prior to my procedures, PRK, Cateract surgery x2, with PRK after surgery to the R eye (prk) for tweeking d/t cataract removal. Wonderful results. I have switched my eyecare services, and total eyecare over to Dr Dornic, and his staff d/t the kind and caring services, and the wonderful outcome Everytime. Each patient receives as much time as necessary, for questions/ concerns, with genuine kindness, and care.
