LasikPlus Reviews on Google
I had a terrific experience each step of the way at LasikPlus Tampa. There’s such a positive, upbeat vibe from each staff member as everyone is celebrating with you as you enter the next chapter without glasses/contacts! Truly life changing.
The process was very understandable, customer service top-rate and surgery was a success! Thank you so much for giving me great vision again!
It was a great experience throughout. I had a thorough consultation, and they let me try the numbing drops so I was comfortable with how the procedure would work. One week later, I had my surgery and was in the building for less than two hours. The surgery only took 10 minutes, and you can watch other people through glass and see how excited they are afterwards. It's been about a week, and my vision is already 90% perfect (3-6 months recovery time is normal, but I was back to my day-to-day within 24 hours). I've wanted Lasik for 2 decades, so it's absolutely changed my life. For those of you who are nervous about the procedure, I can relate and will say it was definitely uncomfortable, but I never felt any pain, only pressure. Think of it like a roller coaster: you work yourself up more than you need to while you're waiting in line, then the ride happens and it's over in a matter of minutes. Except this time, you can see perfectly once you wake up the next morning. No regrets.
My experience with LasikPlus has been phenomenal! I was anxious at first, but once having the consultation with Dr. Dowding and having my questions answered, my mind was at ease. On the day of the procedure, Dr. Groden guided me through the LASIK and PRK procedures. I am almost one week post-op and I’m very pleased with the results. I would definitely recommend this practice to friends and family as the physicians and staff were very professional and caring.
