Reviews
"The doctors are nice enough and the people are nice but they focus on pushing you to their glasses. Also, they hound a person to death confirming and reconfirming fees and appointments. For my recent appointment, I confirmed on the first call and then they texted and called 7 more times. Absolutely ridiculous!!!! I complained to staff and got a canned answering that they had prepared, so it was obvious that this is a common complaint. After 8 years of this annoying behavior, I’m going elsewhere with my business."
"First time patient. You know how sometimes with eye visits, you feel like it's a bunch if robots going thru the motions? Not here. Everyone from reception to testing to the doctor's time to the eyewear specialist, everybody was genuinely nice and personable and knowledgeable. Every step was thoroughly explained, every test was described well. There were options I could choose without feeling pressured. Didn't have to wait--they were waiting on me when I walked in! Never left an eye appointment feeling better than when I arrived until today."
"I recently had an appointment at Thomas Eye Center in Athens, GA, and I had a great experience. The staff was friendly and professional from the moment I walked in, and they made me feel welcome and comfortable. Dr. Vetha was amazing. She carefully listened to my concerns and explained every step of the eye examination process in detail. Her expertise and attention to detail were evident, and I felt confident in her ability to provide me with the best care possible. The office/clinic at Thomas Eye Center is modern and efficient. It was clean and well-equipped with the latest technology, and the entire process was seamless. The wide selection of eyeglasses and the staff's assistance in choosing the perfect pair further enhanced my experience. My visit to Thomas Eye Center was a positive and pleasant experience. I highly recommend Dr. Vetha and the entire team to anyone in need of eye care. I'll definitely be returning for my future eye care needs!"
"I have been Dr. Thomas and staff's patient for more than 20 years. He and they are truly wonderful! This past Friday I picked up a new pair of reading glasses. After I spent some time with them that evening and throughout the weekend I was anxious because they wouldn't stay on my face plus I couldn't see well with them unless I constantly squinted. Come Monday I called to see what could be done. A lovely young woman named Alyssa asked me to come on down to the office. I did and the first thing she said was, "Your nose pieces aren't right." She proceeded to replace them and handed the glasses back to me. Well, let's just say that now I can see you from here! I have been seeing perfectly and have not squinted even once. The whole staff at Thomas Eye Associates is outstanding! You'll get a thorough exam, excellent prescription and some of the most pleasant people around! Alyssa deserves not only a large, well deserved raise, but also at least 3 dozen of her favorite cookies. Stephanie Binkley"
"Great experience with Dr. Thomas and all of Thomas Eye Center! Felt incredibly confident in everyone that I interacted with and it was so fun to pick out new frames and lenses that worked for me. Excited to continue a relationship with my new eye doctor, highly recommend anyone go there for the best of the best! It is also a beautiful and very welcoming office. Go get your eyes checked!"
