We had a good experience with the doctor; minus 3 stars because, as a patient we are expected to be respectful of our appointment time and arrive on time (even early); however, the respect is not given in return to the patient. We have had multiple appointments here, and have had to wait 1- 1.5 hours for every appointment in both locations. This is an unacceptable lack of respect for your patients time. Additionally, the staff go to lunch at noon, and we were left waiting in a ridiculously long line to check out, adding to the unnecessary amount of time that we had to stay.

People have other things to do with their day then sit in a doctor's office all day long. It's one thing when a doctor is running behind because something is going on, but when it is a repeated offense, this just tells me that it is a common happening at the clinic.

Let me start out by saying I have never had any operations here. But if you want the best and most ethical to let you know if you really need an operation, this is the place to go.

The guy in front desk was so rude. Talking loudly and making us feel like they don't need patients and we need them. Dr Bowman has always been very kind and professional.

In late 1965, Mick Jagger (Rolling Stones) recorded "Mother's Little Helper, the opening line of which was "What a drag it is getting old." Jagger, who was in his 20s at the time, could not have been more right. How he knew this nugget of truth in his 20s is remarkable. I went to see Dr. Nettune about eye surgery. I liked the fact that the building has huge letters on it "Eye Institute of Dallas" because frankly if you need eye surgery you can't possibly see the addresses on the buildings.

So that was a good start and much appreciated. The office was clean and modern. They practiced. social distancing in the availability of chairs, which I liked tremendously. I arrived before my appointment time but I did not have to wait too long to get started. All of the people with whom I interacted were friendly, professional, and very competent.

I went through a battery of exams to assess my situation. It was all very thorough. When I was able to see the doctor I did not feel as if he was trying to upsell me or rush me into something I did not need. I told him my situation and my end goals, and we decided on a course of action that seemed appropriate. My surgery is upcoming as this review is written but I feel confident that I have made the right decision.

Dr. Gelender performed my lasik surgery 10 years ago today and I'm happy to say I still have a 20/20 vision and this man changed my life. I love not wearing glasses and enjoying my life to the fullest. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! You are the best!

Two different eye doctors in different practices both recommended Dr. Gregory Nettune for my cataract surgery. He is absolutely outstanding and exceeded my expectations! I had a very large dense cataract that had obstructed my vision so much that I was virtually blind in one eye. He successfully removed cataracts and implanted lenses in both eyes.

I now have 20/20 vision! I am a retired Registered Nurse with an operating room background and I am very particular about surgeons and surgery centers. I received world class care with Dr. Nettune and he was very attentive to my complex health history and needs. His staff is very professional and his Dallas and Plano offices are very organized, efficient and clean. Excellent surgeon!

I visited 3 eye surgeons to get consultations before surgery. The other two were clearly just out for profits (recommended extraneous services, "coaching" me on how to lie to insurance to maximize coverage, etc.), and I was losing hope in finding a real "professional" in the field. Then I visited Luke Potts at Cornea Associates; the difference could not have been more drastic.

The entire staff was professional, the office was clean, their recommendations for services matched my situation, the visit was efficient without extravagant waiting times, etc. I cannot recommend this group more highly.

Went in for a consult. Arrived 15 min early to do my paperwork- they're 20 min late. Then I get sat in a dark room for nearly 45 min to wait for the doctor after the assistant said me. No one ever came back, no one checked up or even offered a water. Wasted two hours of my life and no one ever came. I eventually just walked out. Zero chance I'm trusting eyes to people who are either this disorganized or who care this little about their patients.

The office is beautiful and I didn't have to wait long. All the staff is attentive and caring. I am incredibly impressed with Dr. Zaffros! He is the fifth doctor I've seen regarding my eye problem and the first to be able to provide a diagnosis and treatment. Such a relief! This place is top notch.

Had cataract surgeries - each eye done months apart. First surgery a breeze. Office fantastic. Scheduling easy. Result great. Second surgery. Endless problems. Impossible scheduling - had to drive to Plano office when I live 5 minutes from Dallas office. Called a few hours before to change an appointment time. Also, results of surgery not very successful.

This doctor's office is all about the money. They are scheduling as many people as possible and care is diminished. Office staff are rude (probably overworked). My advice is to go elsewhere.

I saw Dr. Zaffos and the initial appt was ok. But they asked me to research a product by giving me a website. When I searched, it said I had to be medical staff or facility to get info. I called the number and they said you need a prescription to get this product and it is something the Dr.s office needs to order. It is not available at any pharmacy or medical supply store. Since then I have contacted the Dr.s office several times with no results. I guess since its not something they can make money on they are not going to persue it.

Dr. Gregory R.Nettune, MD was negligent and allowed right eye to leak fluid for 40 days (17JUL2019 to 27AUG2019), and I am now legally blind in right eye (worse than 20/200), and there are still 3 stitches in right eye. 04-OCT-2018: Dr. Gregory Nettune, . MD performed cornea transplant (said 18 stitches would remain in right eye for 1 year). Nettune removed the stitches too soon. 17-APR-2019: Nettune removed 10 stitches (6 months earlier than expected).

Vision worsened. 17-JUL-2019: Nettune removed last 8 stitches (3 months earlier than expected). Vision worsened, cornea came loose, eye leaked, & caused light flashes for 40 days, despite calling Dr. Nettune's office about the symptoms (excessive fluid in eye and light flashes); 25-JUL-2019: Called Nettune's office & reported symptoms mentioned above.

They said "don't worry". I still requested an appointment anyway, but was told that the soonest appointment was on 21-AUG (34 days after last 8 stitches removed); 21-AUG-2019: Nettune said cornea was loose. Eye pressure had fallen to 7mmHg (normal=12-to--22). 27-AUG-2019: Nettune performed 2nd surgery (added back 3 stitches). Eye had been leaking for 40 days.

Vision worsened. Failure to address leaking sooner risked infection, complications, & required longer use of Prednisolone, which caused and/or worsened cataracts, and may be why I am now legally blind in my R. eye. I also had to pay for 2nd surgery; 17-OCT-2019: Right eye is now legally blind (20/200) and worse than the beginning (before 4-OCT-2018); Hundreds of dollars spent on new glasses & contacts don't help; cannot read anything with right eye, and there are still 3 stitches in right eye.

The facility was clean and organized and the staff were welcoming and extremely friendly. All of my visits there were very enjoyable. There wasn't a long wait, and the staff kept me informed with all the procedures they were about to perform. Dr. Nettune was my surgeon for LASIK. Every visits to the clinic, he kept me well informed about my status, patiently answers all my questions. he even let me know that I might have a small chance of retina detachment after the final screening before the surgery day, and immediately contacted a retina specialist nearby for me to have me get checked.

He didn't have to do this since it doesn't affect my LASIK surgery, but the fact that he did showed that he cares about his patient's well-being. During the surgery day, we sat down in a small room where he went over what will happen during the surgery and try to make me less nervous. During the surgery, he tells me exactly what he's about to do and what I will feel or should be aware of.

The surgery lasted about 15 mins from start to finish, and was totally painless. I was scheduled for a checkup on my flap the very next day after the surgery, and another checkup for see my vision after a week. Both checkups were quick and painless, and I'm seeing 20/20! I'm due for another checkup 2 months from now, but my experience here has been wonderful.

I want to thank Dr. Nettune for doing a wonderful job and the facility for treating me so nicely. Instead of treating patients like cattle calls, they showed care and diligence. I would wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone!

I had cataract surgery on both eyes by Walter Beebe one of the doctors at Cornea Associate of Dallas. I am 100% satisfied as I had no problems at all. I felt like he & his staff at the Spring Creek location listened to me & cared about meeting my expectations. The surgery center in Dallas was the same. From the check-in staff at the surgery center to the nurses in the operating room everyone made me feel comfortable. All positive five star care!

It's been a year since I had LASIK. I wanted to post an update to report that I am still 100% pleased with the results and have no regrets about having this surgery. With a small child and a very active lifestyle, it has been so freeing to not have contacts or glasses to mess with. Traveling is also a joy knowing I don't have to pack eyewear. I've referred several friends and family members to this practice.

Dr. Bowman and Corrine and the entire team at Cornea Associates of Texas are amazing! I had my LASIK procedure done one year ago and my vision is perfect. This has been life changing as I had terrible vision and could not see without glasses. This procedure was worth every penny and I would do it one hundred times over. Simple easy efficient painless and life changing. Thank you Dr. Bowman and team. You are incredible!

I would not recommend any other team to handle your Lasik other than this team of professionals. From the (free) consultation to the follow up appointments, I was so impressed. They are so helpful and kind throughout the whole process. I felt so relieved, every question I had, they answered confidently and accurately. I am blown away with how smooth the whole process went and their professionalism.

Truly the best experience I've had with medical professionals ever. They were so calm during the procedure, I never once felt unprepared for any aspect of this experience. Rest assured you are choosing the best when you choose Cornea Associates to handle your Lasik surgery.

Dr. Bowman performed my husband's surgery. He is a great Dr. Made sure that we had everything we needed before and after. After surgey he repeatedly asked If we had any questions or concerns instead of making us feel like we were rushed. I would recommendhim to anyone having a corneal transplant.

Despite the long waits like every doctors office, Dr. Bowman and Dr. BeBe are pretty decent. I'm only giving three stars because of the wait time, and the fact that Bowman really just rushes and doesn't spend to much time with you. Yes, of course he as other patience to see, but my visit time with him is only 10 minutes tops. He's a very good Dr. and has healed me through my long 1.5 year cornea ulcer accident, but I just wish he spent more time with his patients. The front desk ladies and nurses are always nice. Friendly Drs. and Nurses through out the entire building.

I was scheduled for surgery this morning to fix a detached retina. My surgery was scheduled for 6:30 am I got there at 5:30 I checked in they they prepped me for surgery, gown, cap set the iv in my hand I was laying on the bed for over an hour waiting for my surgery to begin finally my Doctor ones in and says The facility doesn't have any oxygen I'm going to have to cancel your surgery. Whet kind of surgical center runs out of oxygen before their first surgery?

So I get dressed and go the the front desk by now there's over 50 people waiting. I ask the lady in front what are my options? She said you need to talk to the lead Dr, so she come. To the front and I tell her I have a detached retina I need to get it fixed quickly. She looked at me and rudely said you need to go back to your Doctor and reschedule I wouldn't ever come back nor would I recommend anyone go to this place It's a total cluster!

Dr. Alexander and Mira are very professional, thoughtful, and have exceptionally wonderful beside manner. We started seeing Dr. Alexander as patients of Dr. Bowman, and the level of care has only increased. I'm very fond of this strong female team we trust with our vision.

Dr. Nettune has been a HUGE blessing to my wife and I. We Had a life changing event in which my wife received a cornea transplant. She had extreme sensitivity to light, redness, shooting pain and not to mention she could not see at all. We were referred to Dr. Nettune and he took all proper measures in finding out the cause He even had his other associates Jamie Alexander and Tyrone McCall come in for their opinions.

After many prescription drops and follow-up appointments he recommended that she get a cornea transplant. Dr. Nettune performed a seamless surgery and was able to save her right eye! It's great to see my wife back to her normal self! Long story short Dr. Nettune is a BADASS! We highly recommend going to see him!

Dr. Bowman and his team are very professional while also being very friendly, upbeat, and very caring. I went in to have Lasik on both eyes, but due to the suction not working on my right eye (due to my eye's shape/size) Dr. Bowman let me know mid-procedure that they would need to do PRK on my right eye instead of Lasik. I was a bit thrown off at first, as recovery for PRK takes longer than lasik, but Dr. Bowman was very reassuring and even invited my mom to come in and give me some encouragement.

Although I would've loved to have been able to get lasik on both eyes as planned, Dr. Bowman was encouraging throughout the process and let me know that although my specific situation doesn't happen often, that it was completely fine and that I would still get great results. Additionally, Dr. Bowman and his team have been very accommodating with my follow-up appointments, as I was scheduled to move to Houston a week after my surgery.

He even offered to connect me with a contact of his in Houston who could see me there if needed, once I move. The only issue I had was some confusion with the prescribed eye drops I was given, as some of the names of the drops were different than listed on my post-op sheets, and having had a different procedure on each eye didn't make it easier. We called the after hours emergency line to be sure we had the correct drops, and received a response promptly. Thank you Dr. Bowman and Cornea Associates!

Both my wife and I needed cataract surgery. After a super positive referral from friends in Mineral Wells who drove over to let Dr McCall perform their surgeries, we checked in to Cornea Associates of Texas. I was first impressed with the efficiency of the patient process. I have worked with doctors and doctor's offices for over thirty years and CAT's total processing is one of the best I have seen.

Wait times were minimal, and the explanations throughout the process were exceptional. The communication in and out of the office were great by using their online secure email system. I was the guinea pig in our process and had my eyes done first. I opted for the most expensive lenses which would allow me to cast the trifocals away. Except for extremely small print, like the ingredients on a prescription bottle, I can use my computer, watch tv, or read a magazine without assistance. WOW! 20/15 in both eyes.

It is terrible to have to be so old to see this good :- My wife, whose eyes were much worse than mine, had her surgery done in October. Due to a disadvantage in her eyes, she could not be fitted with the best lenses, but she still corrected to 20/20. The care and treatment by Dr. McCall and his staff was exemplary.

I can't speak highly enough of this office and Dr. McCall. 10 years ago I had LASIK here. I just had a PRK enhancement in my right eye sure to my astigmatism returning too much for comfort. I've never had my doctor/surgeon call me the night of a procedure to see if I had questions. Dr. McCall has done that twice. They are super efficient in the office never leaving you waiting long and everyone is friendly.

There is personalized attention and service at Cornea Associates that I can't imagine anywhere else. No chop shop here. Glad I've entrusted my eyes to Dr. McCall. -Kristy McCoy

Excellent experience from the moment we walked in, greeted by a receptionist, Jeanette, who looks happy to see you. And she is. Every time so far. Overall, the CAT staff has been very responsive and knowledgeable. Left message with a question, and tech Jennifer returned the call within five minutes with the answers I needed. When I had complicated question between visits, Karoline was able to get a helpful answer to me from Dr. Nettune quickly, contacting the pharmacy with the information they needed, encouraging me to contact her with any further questions.

You get a definite feeling that Karoline, Jeanette, Jennifer, and the other members of the team are looking out for you. (Yes, Karoline spells her name with a "K.") Dr. Nettune is excellent. His answers are clear, helpful, and practical. He's careful to detail the pluses and minuses of possible procedures. He listens to be sure he's answered all my questions. Beyond my take, other practitioners speak highly of Dr. Nettune and the Cornea Associates of Texas.

It's only been a few days since Dr. Bowman performed my Lasik surgery, but I can safely say that I am very pleased with the results. I was happy with the level of care that I received from my consultation to my post-operative appointment. I was also very impressed with the bedside manner of Dr. Bowman and his assistants. This was my first surgery, and they calmly walked me through the entire procedure, completely putting me at ease. I live out of state, but chose to have my Lasik performed here because of the reputation of Cornea Associates, and I am glad that I did! I would highly recommend them.
