I came to the doctor for my annual eye appointment. When talking to the lady, I told her they were…read morevision differences in my right eye. After she went over my medical conditions she asked me if I wanted my eyeglasses checked but if I do, I have to charge you. I said don't know why check my eyeglasses it's the same prescription you wrote me last year. So she dilated my eyes. When I asked why they didn't check my vision, they said I chose not to. No I didn't. That's the whole reason I came here was to have my vision checked. Now I have to miss work again to come in for their mistake to get my eyes checked for my yearly exam.. Don't waste your time!

Dr. Yablick at the Chattanooga Eye Institute performed cataract surgery on him a few weeks ago, and has given him no less than a miracle. For decades his eyesight has worsened due to macular degeneration. After receiving treatment for that and surgery for cataracts, his vision in the eye that received treatment is almost 20/20!! He is happier than I can remember and is so very thankful for Dr. Yablick and the entire staff at the Chattanooga Eye Institute, and he HIGHLY RECOMMENDS!

No feed back for me and he actually appeared angry that I had a concern. He walked from the room without out a Thank you, or good bye'. He 'usually' would lead us to check out area. He Left us in the exam room and went to front desk. We came on but he was gone had vanished. And left the info sheet with the clerk. It took my husband and I just a second to gather my purse and walk to from by and he had left us. The receptionist area had two cubicles. The first one was unoccupied because she was assisting with front counter but returning to her area when she could. We were waiting on her.

Having been referred in years past to Southeast Eye Specialists (SEES) and having received…read moreexcellent care for retinal evaluations, and cataract surgeries with lens implants, I a familiar with the superior optometrists and specialist opthalmologists at SEES. The staff are caring and thorough in guiding you through the building, explaining their billing policies and procedures along with your treatment options. The doctors are caring, and thorough in explaining their diagnoses and their recommended treatment options. Years after my cataract implants, I developed "secondary cataracts" which is not an unusual nor unexpected occurrence, as I had been counseled at SEES at the time of my cataract surgery that this might well happen. I now live 600 miles from Chattanooga, but having complete confidence in Dr. Bierly and SEES, I decided to return to have him perform the 2 minute laser procedure. Being the expert that he is, Dr. Bierly does not perform this, or most other surgeries or treatments, on both eyes on the same day. As expected, this treatment (YAG capsulotomy) went quite well, and I plan to return to SEES to have the same procedure done on my other eye.

There are moments in life when you find yourself completely out of your element, far from home, and…read moregenuinely scared. That was me. I live in Northern California, and I was in Tennessee when my retina detached. The thought of potentially losing vision in one of my eyes, while being 2,000 miles from my doctors, my people, and my comfort zone, was terrifying. Southeastern Retina Associates was exactly what I needed when I needed it most. From the moment I walked in, something shifted. The receptionist set the tone immediately. Warm, grounded, no pretense. That feeling carried through every single person I encountered, right up to the doctor. This wasn't a place where staff are just doing their jobs. These are people who genuinely seem to understand that the person sitting across from them is scared and needs more than clinical competence. They need to feel safe. And I did. The care was top-notch, but honestly, it was the humanity behind it that I will remember. When you're far from home and your eyesight is on the line, trust is everything. I trusted every person in that office. If you are visiting from out of state, or even if you are local and need a retina specialist, I cannot recommend this practice highly enough. They showed up for me in a way I won't forget

The staff is very kind. It isn't hard to get an appointment or speak to someone directly. The ONLY negative is - it's an all day event. It takes forever! The waiting room always is comfy. They have coffee, water, candy and flat screens with HGTV. It's never hot or stuffy. Front desk staff keeps us laughing. I wouldn't go anywhere else. On a personal side note-i was working a great job when I came in EMERGENCY. It was then I learned I would not drive or work and was going blind. My whole world changed. I lost my job and insurance. Dr G said my eyes were more important than money and they would work with me. His bedside manor is unlike any other.
