Dr. Pace was great. They in the exam room quickly. Before my appointment time. His assistant was very friendly and professional. They took care of my issue. Got me on my way within an hour. Very professional friendly staff. This was my first visit but if I need an ophthalmologist again I will definitely use Baptist eye surgeons.
I had apraxia of the eyes and went for two yrs trying to get help. The surgeon at Vanderbilt would not touch me. I was recommended by dr graham Taylor in greeneville and dr A performed surgery and I am seeing better than I have for years. Hoping for full vision. The fact that he was willing to help makes me forever grateful. Thank you Dr A

Baptist Eye Surgeons - Dr Darin Smith is an excellent doctor. Very thorough, professional, and caring. He took care of my elderly mother and was so good to her that I decided to start using him myself. He's been my eye doctor for 20 years and I highly recommend Dr Smith and the staff at Baptist Eye Center. All are very friendly and professional. Never had a bad experience. Five star.
