LasikPlus Reviews on Google
Very impressed with the service at LasikPlus. Everyone very friendly and eager to answer questions or to address concerns. Everyone was very upbeat, positive, and seemed to genuinely enjoy their jobs – a hard culture to maintain sometimes. Procedure was smooth and received communication the whole way through, didn’t feel rushed. Dr. Ellis seemed to be teaching while doing the procedure which I actually loved. (He did the full procedure) After the fact, Dr. Gaines was especially kind, helpful, and flexible with requests. Would definitely recommend.
I'm still surprised how quick the surgery went. I'm an out in less than 30 minutes. Staff was professional. I was nervous at the time of surgery. They started asking questions about my kids and before I knew it we were done. Great experience. Highly recommend!
Amazing service. These people make you feel very at home. I cant explain how happy I am with my vision. All around I give them 10 out of 10! Go SEE these people!
I had nothing but a wonderful experience with the entire staff and doctors at LasikPlus. Everyone was very nice and extremely helpful and knowledgeable with any questions or concerns I had. The process was quite shocking with how smooth and fast everything was along with being treated so well. I highly recommend if your considering Lasik that you go and see this group of wonderful people at LasikPlus. One of the best things I've ever done and so simple with no aggravation. Thank you so much for changing my life and making it so easy and affordable along with being awesome people.
I just want to tell everyone that this is the best decision you will ever make. I am the happiest I have been and I can see perfectly. LasikPlus is a life changer!
