Dr. Taylor is an exceptional doctor! She takes time to answer any questions and explains everything in detail that she is checking and finds. I was a patient of Dr. Ange most of my life. He could not had anyone better to take over his patients. Dr. Taylor is amazing. I am grateful for her being my doctor now.

Dr. Caylor was very professional, extremely knowledgeable, was able to explain and answer any questions I had. Had great recommendations for help take the strain off my eyes and a good eye drop for my allergies. Definitely made the right decision by switching to this office.

5.0 · Robin Edwards · University Eye Specialists, P.C.7 months ago

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Harris and his great staff! Caring compassionate care all around. Dr. Harris eased my anxiety about my cataracts. His confidence and calming demeanor were so much appreciated. It gave me total trust. His staff was amazing too. One of my best experiences in a long time in a professionally run practice that was both friendly and warm when places seem so robotic! Would totally recommend their office.

5.0 · Gayle Crabtree · University Eye Specialists, P.C.3 months ago

Finally an eye doctor that takes the time to explain things well! Dr. Mia Taylor is thorough and compassionate. I feel like she does an excellent job on the exam. I also love that they will do the refraction and eye exam at the same time. Another large eye group required two appointments and co-pays.

5.0 · Sheila · University Eye Specialists, P.C.4 months ago

My husband and I saw Dr Rouse today for our yearly eye exam. From check in to check out we were impressed by the friendly and efficient staff! Dr. Rouse is so pleasant and caring. He explained everything clearly as we were being examined. We highly recommend Dr. Rouse and the staff at University Eye Specialists!

1.0 · Dr. Jan Moore · University Eye Specialists, P.C.2 months ago

Dr. Rouse did surgery on me. I have glaucoma. I was told he was the doctor to see! He decided to do a surgery on my left eye by putting a stent in it. During the surgery the anesthesia did not take. I was awake during the entire procedure. He treated me very rough. He did not handle me with care, especially when he was strapping my head onto the gurney. Because the anesthesia did not take, it was obvious to see that He lacked any care, any empathy, or compassion for someone in my condition.
