I was a patient there for 15 years. They refuse to send me a letter that just lists my diagnoses. They said I need to be seen. I don’t live in Alabama and they aren’t taking new patients. The office manager was so unprofessional, she refused to even talk to me about this. I asked for Dr to call me and they said they would not even pass the message on. I have 4 surgeries with this office and they are refusing to give me access to my medical records which is illegal. I will report him to the medical board and recommend you AVOID his HIGHLY UNPROFESSIONAL staff.

I was diagnosed with shingles and it got to my eye and if it isn’t addressed immediately it can cause some sight issues(even blindness). I spend the morning calling optometrist to get worked in per my GP. None of the 8 I called would try. Dr. Whatley at Whatley Eye Care got me in right away (same day) even though he’s not excepting new patients. He said shingles on the head and especially around the eye is very serious and needs to be caught early. Thank you Dr. Whatley!

I have been to many eye doctors/optometrists, and ophthalmologists, over the last 8-10 yrs and I can honestly say that Dr Whatley and his staff are the most thorough. Very welcoming and nice form the minute you walk in. Dr Whatley is the best I've seen and is very, very thorough. I'll definitely use them only from here on out.

I absolutely love going here! I have only seen Dr. Rhyne and she is awesome. Everyone is always so nice and caring. My children and I have enjoyed going here for all of our eye care needs and I love the fact that we can all be seen in the same place. I would highly recommend this office to anyone in need a great eye doctor.
