LasikPlus Reviews on Google
The only regret was not doing this sooner. Wonderful staff. Knowledgeable, kind, welcoming and overall helpful. The actual process of the procedure was definitely different. However the staff has a great system to calm you down. They make sure you are ready and they take very good care of you the whole time. I absolutely loved the entire process and highly recommend LasikPlus to anyone curious.
Super fast easy and convenient! I can see better after 4 days than I ever could with contacts or glasses, and I never need to wear them again! All of the staff is phenomenal and great bedside manner. I recommend this for everybody who is active or gets headaches from glasses. Can't wait to fully heal and go rafting and not have to worry about losing a contact again LOL
I couldn't be happier with LasikPlus Denver! I felt at home from the first visit with Giovanna to my procedure on Friday where she was in the room with me. Everyone there has been amazing but Giovanna was something special. My vision is amazing already only 3 days out! I would recommend anyone wanting to get lasik to check out LasikPlus Denver, I'm glad I did!
They were absolutely amazing! The whole process was efficient and painless. The techs and doctors explained everything wonderfully and I could not have been better prepared. JOANNA and GIOVANNA are absolute gems and made me feel so supported and at peace. 11 outta 10!
Feels great to wake up in the morning without the need of contacts or glasses. The procedure was painless and fast, the staff here it's very welcoming and friendly. I have been able to wake up happy knowing my vision isn't limited to 1 to 2 feet ahead of me. Overall I'm glad I came in.
