I was slightly late (less than 5 mins) and the intake clerk was fairly rude to me. I certainly didn't appreciate the lecture about what I should have done at that hour of the morning.

The Eye Surgery Center of East Tennessee is PHENOMENAL!!! There isn't another word to describe it! My dad is 100% disabled, and in a wheelchair! We had experiences with Dr. Taylor, and Dr. Everett, and they both were informative, attentive, and most of all KIND! I'm very cautious and protective of my Dad, who is also a Vietnam Veteran, but I felt comfortable from the time we walked in the door til the time we walked out! I just want to take this time to THANK this office, and these doctors and nurses for EVERYTHING they do!! They CARE and it SHOWS! I LOVE U GUYS!!
