Customer Reviews
Based on 5 reviews
"I recently had eye surgery with Dr. Barrett Eubanks at Herzig Eye Institute, and I am extremely happy with the results. My vision is now clear and sharp—I can see small details that I couldn’t see before, and I no longer need reading glasses. The improvement has truly made a big difference in my daily life. Dr. Eubanks was incredibly professional, caring, and reassuring throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I felt comfortable before and after the procedure. He also followed up personally to check on my recovery, which shows how dedicated he is to his patients. The staff at Herzig Eye Institute were also wonderful—kind, organized, and very supportive from start to finish. I highly recommend Dr. Eubanks to anyone considering eye surgery. I am very grateful for his expertise and the excellent care I received."
"I received an appointment the day after my optometrist referred me to Herzig for cataract surgery. They gave me a survey of what I was looking for, and what was most important for me, and discussed the options available. I had laser surgery to implant extended depth of focus lenses. Multiple measurements of my eyes were taken the week before surgery to determine the correct prescription to implant. The measurements were double checked in the operating room. I had a follow up appointment the following day, and was cleared to drive. There were no problems during the recovery, following the prescribed procedures is very important. A follow up with my optometrist confirmed that my vision is 20:20. I am able to use my phone an computer without glasses. Reading glasses are only needed for small print. After surgery my vision was so sharp that things seemed artificial compared to what I was used to. I am very happy with my results and highly recommend Herzog."
"From the moment I walked in the door until the process was complete I received the absolute best care from everyone I met. Stephanie was amazing as she walked me thru the paperwork and procedure. I was extremely nervous, but she was repeatedly available to answer my questions and reassure me about everything. Then I met Dr Eubanks, and I immediately felt at ease. He is truly a caring, dedicated, and skilled surgeon who took the time to answer my questions and explain the entire procedure of refractive lens exchange surgery. Surgery day was a breeze, he was calm and chatted with me through the entire procedure. I only required one adjustment after surgery and again, lots of explanation and info. To the final lock in Dr Eubanks was right there with me, reassuring and answering my questions. I have now received three emails from him checking in on how I’m doing, and I am only two months post surgery. Thank you Dr Eubanks for giving me the best vision I’ve had in 40+ years. Dr Eubanks, Stephanie and the whole team at Herzig you deserve far more than the five stars. Truly appreciate you all!"
"I had an amazing experience with Dr. Eubanks for my SMILE surgery! He is very knowledgeable and made sure the entire procedure was comfortable for me. The results are even better than I expected. I used to have dry eyes from excessive contact lens wear, but now my eyes feel much less dry and my vision is bright and clear. I believe this is because of how precise and careful he was, which made my recovery go so smoothly."
"After a frustrating experience at a large eye clinic in Brampton, we moved my partner's cataract surgery to Herzig Eye Institute and couldn't be happier. The other clinic felt like a factory assembly line—packed waiting rooms with hundreds of people, multiple unnecessary appointments, and constant pressure to upgrade lenses and spend more money. After four appointments and several half-days off work to drive my partner, we still didn't have a surgery date. Herzig was the complete opposite. From the first appointment, the focus was on patient care, not sales. The process was efficient, professional, and respectful of our time. After one consultation and a follow-up for testing, surgery was scheduled and everything went smoothly. Dr. Barrett Eubanks was exceptional—caring, knowledgeable, and reassuring throughout the entire process. The staff treated my partner like a valued patient, not just another number. They even arranged for follow-up care with our local optometrist since we live a considerable distance away. Today, my partner has 20/20 vision. If you're choosing where to have cataract surgery, Herzig is worth every penny. The cost was comparable to the other clinic, but the experience was worlds apart. Thank you, Dr. Eubanks and the entire Herzig team. Five stars isn't enough!"
