I recently had lasik eye surgery on 3/29. From the consultation visit to the actual day of surgery Wilmington Eye and their staff go above and beyond. If you are thinking about having Lasik done take this review as your sign to go forward with the procedure. It is truly life changing. Dr.Leone, Kelly, and Missy thank you for the compassionate care you provide before, during and after surgery. I will forever be grateful for you all and the staff at Wilmington Eye.
“My sight is now 20/20 in both eyes. Thank you for making it so. I am grateful for your expertise in performing my cataract surgery. My entire experience with Wilmington Eye…was as stress-free and pleasant as possible. Now I look forward to brighter vision for a long time.”
A belated thank you for giving my bride her new vision. It’s been a whole new world for her, seeing the best since childhood. You and your staff are the best. The process was very easy. Once again, thank you….
I want to thank you for being such an integral part of correcting my vision. It has been, and will continue to be a process, but I’m thankful for your expertise.
“I never dreamed in a million years that after this
“With my first eye, I noticed the next day the vibrant colors! I didn’t realize that my vision had gotten so bad. It’s only been a week out from my second eye and my vision is 100%! I’m a retired nurse so I’ve witnessed cataract surgery a long time ago and I knew that it was kind of a big deal. But this was the easiest thing I have ever been through.”
I was so thrilled to receive wonderful treatment and care through you. I do not have the appropriate words to express my deepest gratitude to you.
“Although I was nervous going in, I’ve had a positive experience. The staff was helpful and I am absolutely thrilled with my results! I can read and I can see the flight of a golf ball down the fairway!”
“Dear Dr. Leone and staff, I am so thankful for my new sight; words cannot describe the joy of actually being able to see the world again! Your staff kept reassuring me that I would not feel a thing and they were right! The surgery and recuperation afterwards was a breeze. My quality of life has improved more than I could ever imagine, no more squinting, rubbing the eyes, headaches or doing the far away close up maneuver of reading the restaurant menus! Thank you for making the world a better place to see!”
“Last month my grandparents surprised me with the gift of corrective eye surgery (Implantable Collamer Lens). Today I had my procedure done and in only one hour after surgery I had 20/15 vision (almost 20/10)!!! I can’t stop looking at things around me. I’ve never seen with such clarity… I never knew such clarity existed! Now my wedding day will be even more beautiful than I imagined (literally) not to mention every day for the rest of my life.”
“Since age 10 I have worn contacts and glasses to correct severe nearsightedness. Recently I decided to have ICL corrective vision surgery, and am simply amazed at my results. My quality of life through vision has unquestionably improved. I can see clearly day and night, in and out of water, and in the comfort of my natural eye. I look forward to experiencing all my passions (swimming, surfing, snow skiing, tennis) with clear ICL vision. I would highly recommend Wilmington Eye… professional, personable, quality results.”
“At my age I have been to a number of different doctors. Dr. Leone rates in the very top. She explains everything completely and listens carefully. I never felt rushed with her. Her friendliness is a welcome change from many doctors! She knows how to relate to people. I felt she saw me as not just another patient but also as a person. Her confidence and calm manner in explaining the surgery allowed me to go into it with no concerns or unnecessary worries. I can not recommend her enough!”
“Excellent staff! Overall great experience! Thanks again Wilmington Eye!”
“We love the staff at WE. They took time to carefully explain hubby’s procedure fully. Thank you all for the extra measure of kindness you give!”
“I loved the experience I had going through LASIK here! Wonderful staff, great service and excellent results!! Thank you all so much!!”
“Compassionate providers and staff!! We have had daily visits and they are consistently caring and wonderful to say the least!”
“Dr. Shipley is a wonderful doctor & person. A doctor who cares deeply for her patients. She is an awesome surgeon – my eyesight is no longer doubled!”
“All my life, I’ve had an issue with double vision and a noticeable lazy eye. I just kind of put up with it because I’ve heard that this condition in adults was not able to be corrected. Recently, I heard from a friend about Dr. Melissa Shipley who was very experienced in correcting this issue even in adults. I’m happy to say I had the surgery done and my eyes are perfect aligned and NO DOUBLE VISON! It’s still so new but has really changed my life over night and given me a new confidence in myself. Also Dr. Cox was a great help during the recovery process. If you are an adult with a similar issues as me, go see Dr. Shipley! Completely satisfied!”
“Everyone was so friendly. Dr. Cox really showed me that she cared about my situation and took the time to answer all of my questions. I highly recommend this place!”
“This is one of the best run practices I have ever used and puts other practices to shame. They have always been responsive, caring and professional in my care and I am eternally grateful for the care I received when I was in so much pain. Dr. Cox and all the supporting staff were so caring and responsive to me and gave me just what I needed to make me feel better and heal my eye.”
“We love Dr. Geerts. She thoroughly explains everything and answers all your questions. She takes time and never hurries. Dr. Geerts and her staff provide the most thorough eye exam I’ve ever hard, and I’ve had eye problems for over 50 years. The reception staff is also very kind and helpful!”
“Dr. Travis Pickens worked me in even though he was already running behind because his wife had just had a baby, even though I was an out of town urgent care patient. Thank God he did because he made a huge difference in not only my eye health but my whole body health. He questioned me thoroughly and added up all my symptoms to suggest I be tested for auto immune disease. He was right!!! Now I am being treated and in much better overall physical health. I owe him a lot! Thank you so much Dr. Pickens for superb care. You really made a difference in my life!!!”
“Just completed cataract removal surgery, first my left eye and then my right. I am very happy with the results of the work done by Dr. Travis Jenkins and his professional and personable team. I have not experienced even a moment’s discomfort! I am pleased with the brightness and the clarity of my vision. I am even more pleased to be able to read with relative ease on the day after surgery. If you should need eye care, consider the services of Wilmington Eye.”
“Had both eyes done by Dr. Jenkins. Did a great job. The staff is awesome and can’t say enough about Dr. Jenkins. First time since I was 16 yrs old and don’t have to wear glasses. I’m in my 70’s and it feels great. Thanks!”
“Dr. Oester is the best! Very caring and extremely knowledgeable. Always puts his patients first and the staff reflects his passion to excellence.”
“Dr. Oester and his team are absolutely wonderful! I left the office in tears today because of the genuine care and compassion they showed my 12 year old son! If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I’m still in shock over their kindness after my son’s eyelid procedure! Thank you!”
“Dr. Polomsky is an amazing surgeon. He did both of my cataracts. He has an amazing bedside manner and you can tell he really cares. I recommend him for any eye surgery!”
“Dear Dr. Polomsky, It’s been nearly 6 months since you removed the cataract in my eyes (graciously coming in on your vacation to help me) and I just wanted you to know that hardly a day goes by that I don’t whisper a silent “thank you” to you for my eyesight. I cannot tell you how grateful I am. Thank you, Dr.!”
“I had called last minute due to losing sight in my left eye. Dr. Covington cared enough to see me the next day. He diagnosed my problem and took time out of his busy schedule. He and his staff were courteous and efficient. Thank you Dr. Covington!”
“This is the second cataract surgery I have had within the last month. Dr. Covington and the entire staff have been most helpful, polite and professional. I feel all of my questions have been answered and reassuring. From the minute I check in to be seen, the entire staff has been courteous and welcoming. I would highly recommend Dr. Covington and his staff!”
“Dear Dr. Leone and staff,
I cannot thank you enough for all of your help over the past year. I know that I had one of the stranger cases that you’ve seen in quite a while. You always had a plan, and I never once felt like I was alone, or that we wouldn’t be able to resolve the problems. I think it says a lot about a doctor when she gives me her personal cell phone number in case of emergencies, and calls to check up on me when she’s on vacation!
I’ve worn glasses and contacts since I was six years old, and despite all of the complications, I still can’t quite get over the fact that I went from contacts with a prescription of -10.00 (what is that, somewhere in the range of 20/1,000?) to 20/15 vision! It’s amazing to be able to roll out of bed in the morning and not have to reach for glasses. ????
You are all wonderful, caring, talented people and I am truly grateful for all you’ve done for me. May God bless you, your families, and all of the people you will help in the future!”
