I Can See!!! After…read moredecades of wearing glasses and my old man eyes finally getting to the point of being absolutely done with buying glasses every year I decided to do something about it. I haven't known many people who have had eye surgery and I was slightly hesitant since they are my eyes after all. After reading the countless google reviews for Dr. Woolfson praising his work and the experience overall I decided it was time. I met first with Dr. Burns and some assistants and everyone was friendly and professional. I was super excited to get scheduled for a week or two later! Day of surgery I showed up with my eye drops and only a tiny bit of anxiety because again it's my eyes after all. The procedure really is only a couple minutes long. You don't really feel much other than a slight pressure and you see a bunch of lights. Once it's done it's hard to imagine why I waited so long to get it done! Tips: go home to a dark relaxing place so try all your eye drops right after surgery. An hour or so later your eyes want to rest and a nap is good. Eye drops are more important than you can imagine! After surgery you can already read! I haven't been able to read without glasses in decades! A week later you cannot believe you can read with no glasses, but distance is weird. A month later distance is now getting better and better. My eyes are so much better it's amazing. I mean literally amazing and such a change for my life! I definitely recommend seeing Dr. Woolfson and his associates!

I will say the procedure day was longer than I anticipated, but they even found me snacks to eat while I was still waiting. Dr. Woolfson was friendly and I was very impressed with the handwritten note I received after my procedure. Also I was planning on getting PRK before the day of the procedure and had already picked up my eye drop prescriptions for that procedure. Since that changed they saved me another trip to the pharmacy and gave me the other drops I needed. Definitely would recommend if you're tired of wearing glasses or contacts and want a great place to do it!!

I called immediately, the female phone person said, "a Tech will get back to you." That did not happen for a WEEK - SEVEN DAYS despite my MANY phone calls and email. Finally me "loosing it" on the phone a week later - demanding I speak with a doctor, got Dr DiStefano's attention and she referred me to a Retina Specialist for surgery. It was TOO late for my retina and macula. In the ensuing 18 months, I've had: laser retina repair (referral) - worsening cloudy vision - multiple eyedrops - eye injections - a Vitrectomy to repair the Macula Hole that developed - and Scleral Buckle surgery when my retina detached a month after the Vitrectomy Have YOU ever experienced lying face down, 20 hours per day, for 7 days straight - twice in two months? This is what is required with both surgeries! I have LOST functionality of my left eye - FOREVER. This means CLOSING my eye to read, write, watch TV, etc. for the rest of my life. I request ALL Tech's and Female phone personnel who worked for DiStefano and Ridner during April 2023 be Terminated and never allowed to work in an field that involves the human body. I've LOST a functional eye. Do YOU really want to chance it???

Dr Stewart and his staff made me feel comfortable throughout my time at the clinic while also explaining clearly what to expect, and now I have better than 20/20 vision. I'm a student here in knoxville, 25, my eyes were -4ish. I found Tennessee lasik through researching different facilities for the most experienced doctor. It's my eyesight so I obviously wanted the best. I thought about making a trip to Nashville but after seeing the cost difference, and how they have the same top of the line equipment here in knox, as well as the amount of experience of Dr Stewart, I decided on Tennessee Lasik for the procedure. I would recommend Dr. Colby Stewart to everyone, but especially anyone who might be scared of having lasik done. The lasik procedure seems scary when researching but the staff truly did a great job. I have never had such a wonderful experience at any medical facility before now.

The initial assessment was very nice, there were only a few people there (went to Dunwoody location), and the doctor that did the assessment was extremely knowledgeable and wonderful at explaining everything. I had to go to the Galleria location because they had the more specialized laser for my horrible prescription. I wasn't really nervous, but excited to finally have the procedure. I was a bit put off at first (not to the point I'd reconsider) by the sheer amount of people there for Lasik-- and ONE doctor. It's definitely a mill. They must make a fortune. Second, I was put off by the doctor. He looked really rough-- like a homicide detective or military captain. Like he's been beat up a lot and doesn't shy away from a good fist fight (LOL). He smiled a lot, to make me feel more comfortable, but he didn't really try to answer my questions and seemed annoyed (some of the things he said to expect were NOT what the doctor who did the assessment said-- he didn't have any interest in hearing it). All said, he did know how to use the laser and corrected my vision just fine. The surgeon is just one of many of the cogs in the wheel, there is no patient-doctor relationship, and they make it very impersonal and sterile to manage expectations (IMO).
