“I’ve needed glasses since my college days, and they have made it more difficult to play sports and limited my life in general. I wanted to be free from the restriction of glasses! I chose Heaton Eye Associates because they had great reviews, and as a doctor myself, I trusted Dr. Muirhead – we both graduated from the same medical school!”

“After my husband had such an amazing experience with Dr. Nickel, I decided to take the leap too! From the first visit to the surgery, I’ve met some of the kindest and most professional eye care pros. As a cherry on top of a great experience, Dr. Nickel prayed with me before surgery. I highly recommend Heaton Eye Associates!”

“My experience with Heaton has been absolutely amazing! The staff and doctor made me feel like part of the family. They kept me comfortable and worry free during my procedure. Dr. Hardin walked me through all the steps while I was having my LASIK so I felt completely safe, and there was no pain at all. I’m so happy with my decision!”

Dr. Risner did a wonderful job removing my cataracts and replacing with crystal clear, top of the line lens. For the first time in my life, I can read the fine print and see small things. I can even drive without glasses or contacts. Heaton Eye Associates changed my life. After my second eye surgery, I bought a brand new pair of Maui Jim polarized sunglasses at the Heaton optician store, but I will never wear correctives lens again!

I highly recommend Dr.Dossey for eye care needs. The whole office is very professional and congenial with each patient. The office buzzes around like bees,each doing an assigned jobs to give the Queen Bee(King) his go for his last assessment for his patients. Really not slow but consistent with time,but waiting time can be running behind. Especially when there is an overload of patient's waiting for their assigned time. My waiting time was way too long,not by the associated but waiting for the Doctor. He was way overloaded because Dr. Dossey always takes the time to hear his patient's needs. So although the time was longer, I appreciated the personal touch Dr.Dossey gives his patients. My opinion would be, allowextra time for good advice from a super team and a good Doctor.
