It was my first visit with University Eye Specialists and I was very impressed. The building, both inside and out, was very clean and well kept. The initial check in at the front desk went smoothly, no issues at all, and the receptionist was friendly and welcoming. I was then seen by Ashley, also friendly and professional, who gathered my medical history information, current medications, and a description of the issue I was experiencing. I was then seen by Dr. Gill, who was very nice and professional. She examined my eyes thoroughly and reassured me that there was no damage. She recommended, and wrote down for me, some over the counter medications that should correct my issue in a week or so. I will definitely make my future eye care appointments with University Eye Specialists going forward. I definitely recommend them!

This place is a joke they are not professional at all. If you go here plan on a 3 to 5 hour visit. It is ridiculous. They have no clue how to run this place. I do not recommend this place to anyone.

Dr. Watkins is an excellent provider and very pleasant to deal with. She always has a smile and is very engaging. She explains medical terminology clearly and concisely. I would recommend her to anyone.

My visit on 9/17/24 was excellent. I checked in with Robin at front desk, very pleasant and friendly. Hannah took me back and did the initial work up, very nice and pleasant also. Then Dr Watkins came in and did my exam, I usually see her for my exams. Dr Watkins is so nice and very professional, she was very thorough and I trust her. I feel I’m in good hands. Thank you.
