Im very pleased with SEES! I primarily saw Dr. McCarty, who was fantastic. I totally recommend doing the light adjustable lenses of youre a canidate. Dr. Bierly did the actual surgery and he was fantastic as well. Felt confident that I was in good hands the entire time. Paige and Tara (helped with light adjustable lens) were great Staff members. 5 stars!
I was very impressed with the staff @ SEES! I normally have good eye sight but suddenly I couldn’t see out of my right eye. Donita was so kind and got me an appointment quickly. Dr Previl spent a considerable amount of time examining my eye and was very thorough. He prescribed a medication that that my insurance didn’t want to pay for. But he, along with his office staff, was diligent to get to it approved. My eye has healed & my vision returned. Also Lexy was very helpful in her examination. I highly recommend Dr. Previl and his staff.
Everyone at Southeast Eye Specialists was amazing. From the moment I walked in the door, until I left the facility. The staff is incredible and so nice. I felt very comfortable, even though I was a bit nervous. The front desk staff, my nurses, Dr. Bierly (who did my surgery), the anesthesiologist, and everyone else were so kind, and kept making sure I was comfortable. My surgery was super fast, recovery room nurse was a sweetheart and made sure I was comfortable and ok. Thank you ALL for making this such a great experience!
The best thing I can say is "Thank you everyone at SouthEast Eye Specialists! They are all amazing and they are able to give you back your 20/20 vision while making it seem so easy. If you need their help, don't put it off and you'll be so glad you did
Everyone was very nice, and the practice was clean , and everything was done like a well oiled machine. Looking forward to. s e e i n g them again after surgery, I am having cataract surgery in both eye's and I can't wait to see how far I can see in a few days.
