Was seen promptly. Very thorough exam and complete explanation of condition and treatment options. Could not have asked for a better experience.
Love Dr. Barker & his staff. They are warm and welcoming, as well as making sure you understand what’s going on with your diagnosis & treatment. Awesome group of people!! Even the people at the front desk are so sweet & welcoming!
Dr. Weiss and his team listened to my concerns and addressed each of them. I have had other doctors just put an excuse for my eye issues. Dr. Weiss gave me solutions.
Dr. Barker is an excellent Retina specialist. The journey is not almost 10 years and under Dr. Barker’s care my eyes are doing great.
My first visit was today and I had a great experience. I saw Dr. Edward Crosswell. The nurse was great and understanding as I told her about my family history. Dr. Crosswell was also great and understanding. The whole staff was pleasant. I would recommend him to anybody looking for an ophthalmologist
For the past year I have been blinded by my cataracts in both eyes. Dr. Nunn removed my cataract in my right eye- it was very dense and like cement he later told me. I NOW CAN SEE perfectly out of my right eye. I am having my cataract removed from my left eye, which I am confident will go as good as my right eye did. Thanks to Dr. Nunn I can see my own face in a mirror, other people’s faces and even the green grass outside! In short Dr. Nunn gave me sight again. He is a GREAT and wonderful Dr. I recommend him highly for anyone who has a cataract that needs removal. There really are no words to express my gratitude, and joy at how happy I am now after my surgery. Dr. Nunn thank you so SO very much.
Dr. Cross restored my eyesight in my left eye by removing scar tissue on my cornea. Thank you Dr. Cross.
My appointment was pleasant and informative. The staff were efficient and pleasant while doing their jobs. This was the first time I met Dr. Nunn. He was very clear in his explanations regarding the procedures I will be having. He also was patient in answering my and my daughter’s questions. My daughter commented on the fact that he didn’t try to hurry us through the appointment. I feel much less apprehensive about the surgical procedures that I’ll be having soon.
Dr. Heroman was very thorough giving me peace of mind after my examination. I highly recommend Dr. Heroman.
Excellent and professional medical care by a very knowledgeable provider.
Dr. Wild was amazing. She did a thorough exam and answered all my questions. I left there very relieved. I really liked her.
My experience at Columbia eye has always been one of total confidence in the staff and doctors who are caring and courteous at all times.
I had first hand experience 13 years ago at CEC as a caregiver and then a patient. I was and still am impressed by the quality of care they offer especially with patients with diabetes…I find myself recommending it to others. Dr. Hal H. Crosswell, Jr. is so patient and kind to my foster sister due to her mental disability. His entire staff is excellent in their field. I just wanted to say thank you so much.
Minimal wait time. The Dr. was personable, friendly, knowledgeable, and experienced. The best eye Dr. visit ever.
Dr. Cross and his staff are knowledgeable, courteous, and professional. Dr. Cross carefully explained various treatment options, and together we arrived at the best surgical option given my situation. In addition to my assessment of his abilities, his medical field peers speak highly of his skills and efficiency. He comes highly recommended.
My husband’s experience with Columbia Eye Clinic has been wonderful. They are experts in their field. When you combine this expertise with a caring staff…it’s impossible to compare them to anyone else. Thank you for everything you do Columbia Eye Clinic.
Columbia Eye Clinic is the best place to go if you have vision problems. Dr. William Cain, Jr. performed my Visian ICL surgery, and it was one the best experiences of my life. My eyes were considerably past the point for Lasik surgery, and Dr. Cain met with me over and over, collecting data and running tests, to find the best fit for the surgery. Boy, he was completely accurate! I’ve never been able to see this well in my life. No glasses or contacts since the surgery, almost 2 years ago.
Their drs are awesome.
When I met Dr. Stephen Cross it was hard to believe what this young doctor was telling me– I was not going to need to wear glasses anymore. Keep in mind that I wore glasses all my life, and here I am at 71 years young with cataracts. Dr. Cross was the answer to my prayers. This young doctor was very professional and did my eye surgery with confidence. His surgery coordinator Mrs. Kelsey was also very professional and helpful. Overall, I am very impressed with the professionalism of Dr. Cross and his team. My quality of life has changed dramatically and I am very grateful!
Dr. Nunn is awesome! He has given me my eyesight back I will forever be grateful. He removed my cataracts in both eyes recently, I couldn’t be happier. All the staff here has been wonderful!
Had a wonderful experience with surgery. The staff and Dr. Johnson took such good care of me and could not be happier with the results. I highly recommend Dr. Johnson. Thanks to him and the wonderful staff at the eye surgery center!
Dr. Newman diagnosed my husband’s facial tremors as Meiges disease. He’s now getting injections that enable him to keep his eyelids from blinking so rapidly. Its been like a miracle. Dr. Newman is the BEST!
Dr. Snoddy and her assistant did a great job making sure I was able to find contacts and readers to make sure my vision is where I want it to be. The receptionist and my check out person were friendly. See you next year.
Very professional staff and great doctors.
Dr. Wild did cataract surgery on one eye in August and the other eye in October. She is wonderful and I would recommend her highly to anyone. I can see and read without glasses! And most of my friends who have had this done was not nearly as successful – Dr. Wild is the greatest!, my sight is perfect! Thank you Dr. Wild!
Dr. Cain is highly skilled and professional. My particular eye issues were a tough case. He went above and beyond to restore my sight! Best Ever!
Best eye doctor I have ever had. She makes you feel like you matter, she listens, she explains everything very thoroughly and is very skillful at performing the required procedure.
I was very pleased with the cataract surgery performed by Dr. Cross. He patiently addressed all my concerns and questions. Surgery was successful and I had no issues. I highly recommend Dr. Cross.
