“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!”

Everyone was really attentive and explained things well. The wait was minimal. Their system they have down gave me access sense of comfort in knowing they are so organized. Dr. Nickle answered all my questions and he. didn't make me feel pressured or rushed. I appreciate this for of care.

The Heaton Clinic here in Athens is aesthetically lovely. The giant aquarium brings tranquility to the waiting room. The entire staff is friendly and welcoming. The principal asset is Dr. Hardin with his Knowledge and his compassionate attention to all his patients.

They did a fantastic and thorough job for me and explained everything really well. I wanted to mentioned Stephanie specifically because she allowed me to pump in the room and was patient with me. Everything was very clean upkept. My only complaint is the amount of time it took. I was there for almost three hours, but I honestly haven't been to many eye dr offices where it doesn't take that long. Dr. Heaton was very kind and really listened to what I had to say.
