I was referred to TLC Madison after moving here from Iowa City. I had been looking forward to lasik…read moresince my vision had remained stable over the past few years and my home eye doctor thought I would be a good candidate at 24 years old, -2.00/-2.25 and with a slight astigmatism. I set up a hour-long consultation and they confirmed that I would be a good candidate. I travel a lot for work, but they were able to book me for an appointment a couple weeks later that fit with my travel schedule perfectly. I was pretty nervous the day of, so they let me stay until the relaxation area about an hour longer until I was ready - looking back, I had nothing to be worried about. The procedure is strange (nothing like it!) and a bit uncomfortable, but I'm writing this 2 days afterward and I CAN SEE. A couple uncomfortable seconds were absolutely worth it. I am able to get around outside with sunglasses (eyes are still a bit sensitive) and I've mastered the eye drops (something I have never been good at before now) and although I do have a little bit of redness in my left eye (from popped blood vessels) that is normal and will clear up in 2-3 weeks. I would highly recommend Dr. Probst and Dr. Kurt for anyone in the Madison area that is interested in lasik - I was treated very well and they did a thorough job of explaining what was going to happen before, during, after my surgery and why. If you have any reservations about lasik, just ask - they were able to put my mind at ease and I'm sure they'll be able to help decide if it's the right choice for you too.

Lied to about being a good candidate, lied to about not getting floaters, I'm in a lot of pain…read morenow, had to drop out of school because I cannot look at screens/projectors and be under fluorescent lights. My night vision is absolutely horrendous. If I don't sleep enough, it's extremely painful all day. My vision will get blurry if I touch my eyes. I feel like I have dried up contacts in my eyes 24/7 I also have SO MANY floaters now. It's torture. Please don't risk , your eyes are so important

Unethical and I would not recommend. Everything from wait time to bedside manner i was not a happy…read morecamper. To be honest I didn't care from any ophthalmologists at Dean in Madison. The way this clinic does things is so screwy. They won't even speak with you unless you first prove you have insurance. No males present other than physicians. You people took an oath to service medicine to those in need and you're turning folks away for multiple reasons which I think is unethical. I swear everyone at their madison locations lacks good demeanor and professionalism.

Dr. Lynda Siewert is an excellent doctor. She cares about her patients and knows who to send you…read moreto if you need an orthopedic, allergist, etc. I highly recommend Dr. Lynda. She had been my doctor for 25 years if not more. I can't say enough great things about her.
