I remember my first visit and how I was surprised at all the things they do as they examine your eyes. It was an amazing experience and all the people were all very professional and friendly. If you have issues with your eyes I recommend you chose this doctor. I had a brow and lid repair done and they did a great job. This doctor is good. I trust him with my vision and I feel comfortable that I will always have good vision by staying a patient at this office. Good service, busy office and very clean. The scheduler for surgery has your dates and all info for you and it makes it nice to have everything prearranged. No guess work it's all on paper so you don't forget. Thanks Southside Eye, you are a great place for good vision.

The tech was very cool, he likes to whistles, he was sing whistling the entire time during my son appointment. Equipment are all high tech and clean. Dr. Pham was straight forward, she explained that they do medical care also not just for eye exams. So if you have eye infection or something you can go to them. Easy to set appointment or we just got lucky. But overall its been great. Cons: Need to rearrange the sitting. It was by the glass window and in the morning it was very hot behind your back. Maybe move some chair to the other side of the walls.

Her husband told me he thought I'd have no problem with contact lenses. I paid in full upfront and when it was determined I was not going to receive them I was not reimbursed. When I asked was told they might give me a $20 discount off a future appointment but no reimbursement for the money I gave her upfront, in full for a service that was never rendered. I paid $110 or $120 and felt uncomfortable even being asked to pay in advance.

I've never even been inside this business, but that's not for lack of trying…read more I moved here from San Diego 6 months ago, along with my children and pets, leaving my active duty husband behind to finish his TOD there. Rent for a family of 5 was costing us 50% of our income. A few months after we arrived I noticed that there was an eye care center next to my local Walmart, so I Googled "Walmart with eye care center near me" when I returned home. I wear glasses and contacts, and all 3 of my children wear glasses, and our insurance provides us with yearly exams. This center was indicated to be the closest. It took me at least 2 calls to get through to someone to make an appointment, and even at that point they were scheduling 4 months out, so I made appointments only for myself and my youngest child. I was told that I would receive paperwork to fill out ahead of time, but I never did, despite checking my spam email regularly. When I asked about their location they confirmed that they were "between the Sams and the Walmart". Today my son and I arrived for the appt. And, as instructed, I called to let them know we were there. The receptionist asked me to pick up the paperwork and fill it out in my car. I'm sure this is a covid related measure, but since I am vaccinated I did not see why it was necessary. Nevertheless, I proceeded to the door, but no answer came when I knocked, and the hours indicated that they were closed. Someone working at Sam's Club said I could ask at the eye care sales dept., and when I did they indicated that the optometrist only scheduled appointments on weekends. When I explained my situation she told me that the optometry office I was looking for was between ANOTHER Walmart and Sam's Club that was also in Chesapeake. At that point I recalled that I had never been given an address for the location. I could never have known or guessed that Chesapeake would have 2 different Walmarts and Sam's Clubs, located together, in 2 different locations, and both with an optometry center in between, having only lived here a few months. But since I spoke with the office staff several times, you'd think they would have mentioned it to a new patient looking to schedule appointments for 4 people. Nope. Maybe if they'd sent me the paperwork as promised that would have let me know, but they didn't do that either. I did call back and explain that I did not have the correct location, but I was informed that, because of the time I'd spent trying to determine the problem, I would need to reschedule. Nope. Taking my business elsewhere.

He made remarkable suggestions to improve my quality of life and eye health, which I am eternally grateful for.

I have been using an optometrist in Texas because I have had quite a bit of difficulty finding a good optometrist in Hampton Roads who is also in-network with my vision insurance carrier. However, my search is over. Dr. Dragon and his staff are highly competent and an overall pleasure to work with. Not only is Dr. Dragon very pleasant to work with, but he is extremely knowledgeable about a variety of option to benefit those with difficult vision needs. In addition, both his nursing staff and office staff have been an outstanding team with which to work. Most understand that you can have a good physician, but we know how the staff can ruin the experience. However, with Southern Eye Care, this is not the case. I am extremely satisfied with the care I have received through Dr. Dragon and his team, and I highly recommend them!

I work in software near Tidewater Drive, and with my company's provided Cigna/VSP health and vision insurance I wanted to visit a new doctor to do my eye inspection, as my last was rather basic at the nearby Walmart. Given that I scheduled my appointment for 8:45 AM right after they opened the lobby was not very busy. I recommend calling to schedule an appointment for an eye exam, as it can save you a hassle from driving and arriving in person only to just be given some paperwork before leaving. I drove there first to find it in person from Google Maps; Suite 41 where you can find him is directly next to a T-Mobile. The paperwork was easy enough and I felt in good company with the kindly receptionists and saleswomen showing me the different brands of glasses and helping with my examination. The wait was relatively quick at only ~30 minutes, and the exam itself was only about another 45 of inspection work with an assistant and waiting for Dr. Dragon himself to come in to help. It all went well and felt smooth, and really I think the longest part may have just been me digging through the different brands and trying some on to find the best "style" for my face! 10/10
