It hasn't even been 24 hours yet and my vision is so clear. I'm experiencing very minimal discomfort and I feel fully ready to take on the world. Thank you! The place is clean, too, and the process is quick! Be sure to ask about additional discounts when you go in for your consultation!

    Very disappointing experience overall.

What's concerning is that this only happened after I specifically asked them to review my scans again. Had I not pushed for a second review, I genuinely worry they may have proceeded with surgery despite the risks. I also requested a direct explanation from the doctor and never received one. Instead, I had to repeatedly call the office just to get basic answers and speak with someone knowledgeable. My impression is that the process felt far more focused on moving patients through surgery than on patient safety and communication. I would strongly encourage anyone considering a procedure here to ask detailed questions, seek a second opinion, and carefully review whether they are truly a good candidate before moving forward. I also felt the recovery expectations were presented in a way that understated how difficult and lengthy recovery can actually be.

They gave me a plan for the Surgury. I feel that they did. not tell me in layman's term's; as I am not a Doctor. Their Recomendations veried. My eye site was very good for long distances. Up close Vision; I wore dollar glasses for reading purposes. I told them I do not want to have to wear glasses to read up close. THEY ALSO OFFEREED ANOTHER WAY; but I would need to pay out of pocket $5000. Dollars for.. I said, No. Another Eye Doctor gave me another option that they did not offer. They could do two different solutions; one for the left eye, one for my right eye. BEP DID NOT OFFER ME THIS OPTION. Dr. Williamson set me up for the Surgery. I told them that due to my bad Anxiety, I needed to wear my Wireless Ear Buds so I could use my wireless ear Buds. They said no, they would not let me do it. I Needed it due to my Bad Anxiety. They said NO!WHAT DOES WIRELESS EAR BUDS HAVE TO DO WITH EYE SURGERY. After arguing they finally said OK, reluctantly. Long story short, I had the Surgery. It seemed like a long process for many months. When I told them, when they asked me, I did not feel I got what I was expecting at all. In the end, they said i would still need to wear glasses everytime I read! I was in total shock! They agreed to not need Eye glasses to Read up close. This WAS NOT WHAT WE AGREED TO. HAD If THIS WOULD BE THE OUTCOME; I would not have had the Surgery at all! They argued with me! I would not have had the Surgery! I already had great long distant vidion. The only thing I wanted was Not to wear eye glasses!at all! They were not forthcoming with me. Worse yet, when I asked to Speak with Dr. Williamson to call me on numerous occassions . Over a period of two months, she did not call me back. Just missed calls! I called my Attorney. A lady in the office named Tina, was not nice She argued with me and she seemed to act like a Lawyer! She denied everything I said! I Cannot even believe what she told me. The only advantage I received, seems to be somewhat brighter vision; Nothing more. In the End, My wife & I were very dissappointed in the Results. I just did not get what We expected, at all. I had also asked them to send me the paperwork which they never sent to me either. They just ignored everything we said. It looks as though. We need to Contact Our Lawyer. Do not Trust this Staff!

    It's officially my one-year anniversary since having LASIK (specifically the SMILE procedure) at…read moreEnvue, and I couldn't be happier with the results! From my very first initial contact, the staff was quick to respond, was warm, professional, and so patient in answering every question. They explained the entire process in plain language so I felt informed and comfortable before even stepping foot in the office. When I came in for my consultation, Dr. Rivers was just as kind, personable, and friendly as everyone had described. He walked me through the different vision correction options, explained the pros and cons of each, and made recommendations based on my needs -- without ever making me feel pressured. I ended up choosing the SMILE procedure, which was offered at a flat, affordable cost for both eyes (no hidden fees or "per eye" surprises that I was seeing everywhere). The procedure itself was fast and smooth. Dr. Rivers has such a calming presence he talked me through every step, making sure I was comfortable and fear-free. There's even a waiting area where your family or friends can watch the procedure if they'd like, which I thought was a cool touch. I noticed a difference in my vision immediately after the procedure -- I could read the time on the digital clock in the wall right away! By the next day, my vision was perfectly clear. They sent me home with everything I needed: eyedrops for moisture, antibiotic drops, sunglasses, coupons!!! and clear instructions for aftercare. I experienced only minimal discomfort in the days following. The office is beautiful!!! It's modern, great views, clean, and spacious, with plenty of comfortable seating. The location is super convenient, and I loved that there was garage parking with an exterior door that led directly into their office (no awkward walking around a building post-procedure!). Now, a year later, my vision is still perfect. The best part? Waking up and not needing to reach for glasses or think about contact lenses at all. It's been truly life-changing. If you've been on the fence about LASIK or SMILE, I can't recommend Dr. Rivers and the Envue team enough. They made the entire process easy, comfortable, and -- best of all -- successful!

    5 stars isn't enough. No words can reflect the gratitude and joy I feel rn. I just got SMILE done…read moretoday by Dr. Rivers and his staff and I cannot speak highly enough of them! I have never had a doctor care so much about the well-being of his patients. All of the staff are so knowledgeable and kind. You can tell that they all love what they do by the way they interact with each other and most importantly with you. It truly reflects in their craft. On top of their decades of experience and time working as a team together, the facility is stunning. Everything was spotless, the equipment is all brand new, there's parking, and the staff themselves are all extremely sanitary! I wouldn't want anyone else working on my eyes and I would go back again in a heartbeat. BEST DECISION I HAVE EVER MADE IN MY LIFE!! *Yelp didn't log me in when I made the first review so I'm making it again + adding pictures! THANK YOU DR. RIVERS + TEAM! You are all truly a blessing

    Procedure performed on the wrong eye.I had my first LASIK procedure with Dr. Mark Whitten in 2005…read morefor vision correction. Naturally, about 15 years later, I needed another correction and returned to Dr. Whitten for a consultation. During that visit, he recommended monovision, given my age at the time (late 40s). He explained that this approach would allow me to balance both near- and far-sighted vision without needing reading glasses, which many people begin using in their 50s. However, after the procedure I immediately noticed difficulty seeing clearly. Over the following year, I continued to struggle with my vision--particularly problematic in my work as a professional photographer--and sought evaluations from multiple optometrists and ophthalmologists. I then discovered that the LASIK procedure had been performed on the wrong eye. When I returned to see Dr. Whitten, I learned that neither he nor his staff had ever determined my dominant eye prior to surgery. In fact, my old patient notes from 2020 confirm that no such test was performed. Despite this, no apology was offered for the mistake. During that visit, I was seen by John Rogers, a technician and former Senior Surgical Consultant at TLC Vision. His background includes attending Computer Tech of Pittsburgh, but he has no formal education or degree in optometry or ophthalmology. He suggested inappropriate options such as cataract surgery (for which I am not a candidate) and during the same visit Dr. Whitten suggested undergoing yet another LASIK procedure (a third) to correct the issue or resorting to contact lenses--the very reason I had LASIK in the first place. This experience left me with the strong impression that the practice prioritizes business and profit over genuine patient care and vision correction. I regret not doing more thorough research before returning for a second procedure, as I have since learned of multiple malpractice lawsuits filed against Dr. Whitten, including Jamie Domeier vs. Mark Whitten, David Cantalupo vs. Mark Whitten, and Liesl Nichols vs. Mark Whitten. I also couldn't help but notice the promotional posters displayed across his offices, highlighting his LASIK surgery on Tiger Woods in 1999 as a marketing tool to brand himself as a "celebrity" doctor. Unfortunately, beyond the image, his apparent lack of attention and care for patients has led to a troubling number of lawsuits.

    My recent experience here was incredibly disappointing. I received Lasik surgery when I was an…read moreolder teenager (college age). At that time, my mom handled most of the paperwork/scheduling etc. The surgery went well, and 10 years later I started experienced some vision changes. I recalled that there was a "Lifetime Guarantee," so recently I followed up and requested a consultation for an enhancement. My mother recently passed away, and I haven't been able to find any paperwork for my procedure (which was 15 years ago). I called the office, and they were able to find my file. They asked me how long I'd been going to the eye doctor, and I said about 5 years (since I had a baby and my vision declined). I arrived at the consultation, and it went well. Friendly office staff, etc. I was excited to find out that I was eligible for an enhancement in both eyes. As I was about to leave the appointment, they sat me down with someone to "review paperwork," which is when she informed me that since I hadn't had a full vision evaluation annually since my surgery, I wasn't eligible for the "Lifetime Guarantee" and that I would be charged $3,000 for the enhancement. I asked why it was expected to go to vision appointments annually when you have perfect vision, and she said "company policy." I understand that they are legally in the right, and I'm sure I was informed of this as a teenager; however, I feel taken advantage of. It felt like an ethically ambiguous money-grabbing situation. The surgery went well and I'm sure Dr. Whitten is very skilled; however, the follow-up experience was poor. Be cautious.
