Professional staff and assistance. My questions were answered and look forward to next visit.

I had an eye examination with Dr.Wild. She was very thorough and professIonal. I would highly recommend her.
The Crosswell family came highly recommended. I wouldn’t trust me eyes with anyone else. I am a patient of Dr. Edward Crosswell (top notch) and when I wanted laser correction I was introduced to Dr. Holland Crosswell (class act). My whole …
I’m posting a review about service I had 7 years ago but I hope it still counts. I had recurrent corneal erosion and my doctor was Dr. H. Holland Crosswell. After a few weeks of other treatment we eventually did a stromal puncture and it …

I must say that Dr. Cain and his staff are amazing. My surgery went exceptionally well, everyone in the office was so nice.
The waiting time was more than one hour. Dr. Naan’s attitude towards patients is borderline disrespectful and rude. I recommend you find another practice in Columbia where you can actually feel the physician cares for you and does not have a “god like” complex.
I had a scary development with red eyes, and Dr Huey, and his staff were kind enough to work me in. Dr Huey seems very knowledgeable and experienced, as well as welcoming snd professional.

Dr. Croswell is excellent!
His assistant was very thorough and kind.
Also, I didn’t have the long wait I have experienced in the past.
The care is excellent but each time I go for an appointment, the wait time is 2 plus hours. Every time! No one apologizes or recognizes the fact that the wait time is excessive, it seems to be standard.
From the clerical staff at the front desk to my physician were excellent. Their courtesy were exceptional. I couldn’t improve one on anything this visit. Thanks to all the staff.

I have been going to CEC for about 25 years. Love it. Would not go anywhere lease. I went Dr Johnson Sr. And now I am with Dr. Johnson the son. Both are great Ophthalmologist.
If you’re in pain and missing work and needing a referral to be seen to get some help this is NOT the place. Referral specialist has been on lunch for 3 hours now and I was trying to get in for the appointment at 2:30. Just skip this place lunch is more important, googling somewhere else now.
My appointments are always conducted in a very professional manner. I am confident I am receiving the best care as I monitor my eye health.
Dr. Newman and the staff are very professional. You are treat as if you’re special. Everyone was polite and eager to help. The exam process goes un-interrupted. Of course it’s a few minutes delay only for dilation. You’re in and out; no more two hour visits.
i’ve been a patient of Columbia eye clinic for almost 30 years… And I understand doctors leave and you get new ones and they do things differently but what I don’t understand is why the staff had to be so rude about it… I went to the summit …
Dr. Cross is absolutely top notch. He’s genuinely concerned with preserving the vision of his patients. I’m very lucky to have my eye care in his hands.
Columbia Eye Clinic has been safeguarding my vision since 1993, with rescues of a detached retina,cataract surgeries in both eyes, and long term glaucoma treatment. I have complete faith in their professionalism, clinical ability, and state of the art treatments.
The care from ‘Dr. Barker has been excellent. He explains the procedures and outcomes clearly.
My only downside is the wait time. It appears as if the scheduling of patients is very crowded.
Everyone is efficient, courteous, and knowledgeable. Their optical shop offers an affordable selection of top name frames top quality lenses with coatings that don’t deteriorate over time.
For over two years I have had a great experience at Columbia Eye. Dr. Cross and his staff have always been professional and first class. I have recommended them to many of my friends.
I have been a patient of Dr Holland Crosswell for a number of years and have felt very blessed with his services. He performed Cataract surgery several years back and my vision is now excellent.
Do mintz was very nice. His team needs to make sure paper work goes through to other places.I ended up having to try and get paper they didn’t send what should have took about ending up taking 4hours. Please make sure paperwork goes better.
Dr Cain is the best. I have all the confidence in the world in him. I could never find a better eye Dr than Dr Cain. I could never find a better office or staff than what Dr Cain has they are very caring.

Suddenly I needed to see my eye dr at Columbia Eye Clinic, but he was booked so I was given a work in appt with Dr. Cain. I expected at least an hour or more wait because I was worked in. …
The care I received at Columbia Eye Clinic was spectacular. Dr. Nunn performed miracles with my left eye cataract surgery and I can’t wait for the surgery on the right eye! Shout out to Kelsey, also!
I was seen December 29, 2022 by Dr. Mitchell Newman. He is fantastic, very patient and takes the time to answer any questions and explain your eye conditions. HOWEVER, on this visit the assistant whom was to call in my eye drop …
I have been a patient with Columbia Eye Clinic for 35 years. They have been very professional and thorough. Dr Nunn performed my Cataract surgery. He explained the process and took the time for me to ask any questions. My surgery went well and the aftercare was exceptional. Dr Nunn is a wonderful surgeron and eye care professional.
Dr Edward Crosswell is very pleasant, knowledgeable and caring. He provided two solutions to a current eye problem I have. I am happy to trust the health of my eyes to him!

I had 2 cataract surgeries performed by Dr. Mintz in September. I had great results with both. The staff made me feel that I was in good hands. Dr. Mintz took the time to explain all the details which gave me comfort in my decision.
Staff were friendly and competent. The time waiting to see be taken back to prepare to see the physician was far to long. I had a 9:30 appointment but nearly 11:00. I understand this is not unusual.
Dr. Cain and the team of professionals at Cola Eye have been my eye specialists for 66 years. They are caring and have vast knowledge of visual needs. They treat me like a person and not a chart number and I appreciate that.
How do you put a price on sight? How can you really describe what it means to any one individual? And how do you say thank you to a team who have devoted their life toward making your eyesight better? I can only say that there is not a …

Dr. Barker and his team are amazing. Every single visit you know how much he cares about his patients. He is a blessing to so many and saved my husbands eye site.
I love dr. Barker and his team. My only complaint is the scheduling. Waiting 90 minutes past your scheduled time is a little ridiculous. Scheduling too many patients 15 minutes apart is not very fair to the patient. There should be a better Scheduling plan or a limit on doctor’s patients.
Had cataract surgery two years ago.
Dr.Cain is the best.Had routine appointment last Thursday. Unfortunately left before I saw the Doctor. Waiting in the chair for 30 minutes is to long to wait. No one came in to say how much longer I would be waiting.

I was seeing another eye doctor and felt I was being over-charged for services. I requested to be referred to Dr. Barker at Columbia Eye Clinic and I am glad I did. The cost of services is reasonable and my eye injections are much less painful. He also took the time to explain everything in detail.
