Super grateful and impressed! Three days post op and am at 20/20! The staff here is phenomenal. Everyone was so nice from the second I walked in. The doctor was great, explained exactly what he was doing, as he did it, in the calmest voice. That stuffed animal I held got some good snuggles for the couple minutes I was in there. In and out in no time, and loving the result! Thanks guys!
I was nervous going in for sure. Read enough online and anyone would be scared the lasik wouldn’t work. I can say though that the staff is all very friendly and helpful. They answer your questions and want you to experience the best outcome. And after 46k procedures Dr. Allen has done—you’d think reviews would be bad if they weren’t doing things right here. But they are doing it right and awesome! I had the lasik procedure a few weeks back. I’m sitting in the office for my check up with 20/20 vision. You know how amazing it is to not be wearing glasses or contacts!!?!! I’m not searching for my glasses anymore wondering where I put them down. I feel my eyes can better handle stress as well...long days or looking at computer screens for long hours. They used to feel tired and dry—now it’s not a problem. If you do decide to get it done and they can do it for you—plan to have it done that month. That’s how you get the best pricing.
Best day ever! Dr. Allen was great. Made me feel super comfortable and safe. The surgery was better than I expected. I’m so happy I did this. Now I have 20/20 vision. Thank you Dr. Allen.
Dr.Allen was very calming and reassuring during the procedure, it really kept me calm. He also called me before and after the procedure to make sure i was doing good which was much appreciated! The whole staff was very nice and welcoming as well! Highly recommend!
Thank you to ALL the staff members at LasikPlus. You truly work as a TEAM! You take that time to answer questions with care. Most importantly, during the procedure you continue to reassure and make the client aware of the time remaining. Thank you!
