Physician not engaged in my concerns. Spent little time with me and dismissive of my comments. Nurse on the other hand listened and made me feel comfortable.

Excellent care from my technician and doctor.

Aug 27, 2026
I was seen promptly, tested several different ways, Dr V talked to me about my tests and I had no change in my eyes from my last appt. My eyes were completely checked out. With not many Dr's like Dr V, my time felt rushed, I do understand why. I'll see y'all next year

Very nice facility. Very polite & helpful staff. Excellent care from Dr. V. Worth the wait & drive.

Dr. V is extremely intelligent but yet personable! I am a unique patient as I am monocular, he ran all the needed test on me in addition to what the Dr’s at Callahan eye ER performed. He contacted me personally with my lab results and that he was sending me on to a neurologist who specializes in immunology. He is outstanding and I cannot say enough about his compassion. Truly a gem!

We really appreciate Dr. Vaphiades and his staff. The only negative was waiting an hour and a half in waiting room to be called back. Other than that everything was great.

Every one seemed liked they really cared about what is going on with eyes. They seem like they really want to figure it all out and make it better.
