Dr. Zaina Al-Mohtaseb is a "life & vision saver". Being one of the very few Neuro-Ophthalmologists to perfect the DMEK transplant to treat Fuchs disorder; I am blessed to be the recipient of a very successful transplant on August 6, 2026. Today, September 8, 2026, I am writing this review with clear vision, so grateful to Dr. Al-Mohtaseb and the Whitsett team! Robert (Bob) Unanue read more

I had cataract surgery in May 2026 all went well with the surgery. The complications I had was cloudy vision. They do give you eye drops that contain steriods before and after the surgery. My issue is my folow up appointments after surgery were there optometrist. They do not have the Doctor who did the surgery(ophthalmologist) do the follow up. I'am a long time patient and in the past allways seen an ophthalmologist. All my follow has been with there CEO an optometrist. I'm a long time patient, I desereved more, still have cloudy vision in one eye. read more

Called me to move my 1:30 appointment 30 minutes earlier which I could not do, continued to move it up and hour anyway without even informing me and declared a no show. Have never had this happen to me at a professional doctors office before. Highly unprofessional and didn't even think twice about messing up my schedule in order to make theirs more accommodating. Would highly suggest visiting any of the other places within walking distance of them read more

Today I received from Dr. Woon (and Victoria) what I think is probably the most thorough eye exam I've ever had in my life. She was patient, she explained everything to me, she listened to every piece of information I gave her and folded it in. She explained to me about the occipital nerve and the stretches that I can do and also what kind of pillow I should use! So if her mother is reading this, I want to just say one thing, no she didn't save my life but she did reassure me that I wasn't losing my eyesight and that is plenty good . She's terrific. Thank you DrWoon. read more

I had a fabulous experience getting laser eye surgery! The staff was super friendly and helpful. Dr. Whitsett has the best personality and is super talented. Highly recommended! read more

Went very smoothly. I had an allergic reaction to meds for cataract surgery and Whitsett handled it superbly. Changed meds and safely replaced both eye cataracts without a hitch. Can see like a hawk now. Would highly recommend read more

I don't believe that Dr. Whitsett needs more reviews because this medical professional is the best there is people, including my brother-in-law travel from all over the globe to see him and I personally unfortunate enough to live in Houston and therefore I'm able to see him regularly. read more

I did a lot of leg work before selecting Whitsett Vision for my cataract surgery and I am glad I did. Dr. Zaina Al-Mohtaseb helped me work through the process to get my eyes properly measured for lenses, helped me understand the different options and delivered amazing results in the end. The whole process took time, but was well worth the wait. I had the adjustable lens put in and Dr. Woon also took the time needed to get my lens dialed in for my personal needs. If I could give six stars I would and I'd recommend Whitsett Vision to anyone looking to get a sensitive surgery like cataract surgery done. All-star team! read more

Zero customer service, left messages for 4 days with no return calls, left message for office manager and still no return call. This was to schedule cataract surgery. Paying $8,400 alone just for the lenses. If they are this unresponsive before surgery I am sure afterwards they would really ghost me. I am searching for another provider that actually cares about the patient. Jennifer the surgery coordinator has never returned a call after several messages, maybe she should look for another profession that does not require contact with the public or customer service! read more

Staff is very caring. I would recommend you interview the doctors before treatment to determine their level of care for the patient and their willingness to explain patient condition. Would not recommend if you have any concern about your eyes. read more

Dr. Whitsett did my Lasik, which I have been extremely happy with thus far. I would say, though that his staff is less impressive at the Katy location. For the price that I paid for an eye exam well over $300 with insurance, I would expect the front staff to be a bit more kind and understanding. read more

worst experience ever ! after a visit in march doctor prescribed Vuity eye drop .used it for almost 2 month that caused floaters and retina tear .the day i call after i start having the floaters couldn't get anyone to answer the phone left multiple messages for 2 days .very unprofessional ,had to go through different doctor were they rushed me to a lasik procedure to correct the tear . read more

They are constantly ignoring my calls I have been calling for hours my mother had surgery with them. They have awful, awful, awful customer service the doctor is never available to answer any questions I can't seem to get any response form anyone. Just save your money and go to people that care. read more

I made a mistake having my cataract done by Jeff Whitsett. The first visit was in time and he was patient explaining the process. He did not show up for the third and fourth follow up visits and I was seen by different doctors each time. I had to wait two hours to see him on the fifth visit. He finally showed up. He said to go back to him in a month. I asked him if I have to wait two hours again. His response was yes. I'm not going back there ever. He is full of negative energy Erich translates throughout his office which is visible by looking at everyone working there. I never saw a smile on any of the office staff faces except Hannah. Jeff Whitsett needs to get back down in earth and remember his oath read more

Corrected cataract in both eyes. Although the drive was a bit longer, the procedure and follow up were well performed.

When and IF you can reach somebody the Dr's there are amazing. Sure wish they would fix their call in situation.

Couldn't be more disappointed!!! Waited 2 months for an appointment. Within 2 weeks of that appointment they called and changed the date to a day I couldn't go. Told me I would have to wait another 3 months. That's taking care of your repeat clients. The girl on the phone didn't care less. Kirk 713-882-5766 read more

I had a great experience with Lasik at Whitsett vision. Starting from the Lasik consultation everyone I met at Whitsett vision was very knowledgeable, kind, and compassionate. I was so nervous to get lasik and I felt like my fears and questions were addressed in a very understanding and compassionate way. Dr. McKey did my lasik and the procedure really was easy and painless. My vision had already improved close to 20/20 at my follow up appointment the next day. Now, almost 4 months later I have perfect 20/20 vision and have had no problems or side effects after Lasik. It has been an absolute dream waking up every day and not having to put in contacts to be able to see. My experience at Whitsett with Dr. McKey really exceeded my expectations. read more

They contacted me after the 7/25/2023 review I posted. Like they would take care of things. I called them 7 days ago, with a question, they don't call back. All they have is voice automated answering, and ignore you. Nothing changed, very bad service. read more

Simple but through exams with effective and efficient treatment for cloudiness in my eye. I was surprised at how fast I could see again. And, there was no additional Urgent Care charge like at my last provider. $300.00 down the tubes) read more

I arrived to my appointment only to get a call as I open the door to the office that the doctor is in traffic. My appointment is at 9am they call me at 8:51 and I'm already here! Now I'm inconvenienced and I have to come another day? Unacceptable. No thanks. Katy location read more

These are probably great doctors but the office staff and schedulers are terrible and deceitful. They are rude and do not portray the actually appointment times. We have gone to Baylor instead. read more

I got a procedure back in September of 2023 for my degenerative eye condition. The surgeon was great, and the process went smoothly, as did the follow-up visits. Fast forward to now, and I called on 12/19 due to my insurance letting me know there was a discrepancy with my billing. I called the billing department with insurance on the phone and was greeted by Debbie in billing. As I explained the situation with the insurance on the phone while speaking with Debbie in billing, she quickly deflected and stated she couldn't answer our question due to her manager not being present. I asked Debbie if the billing supervisor was the only one to speak with regarding the critical matter. Debbie responded, "You can't wait until tomorrow"? I then responded and said, "No, I can't." Debbie then placed the insurance agent and me on a long hold to come back and state that she spoke with the operations manager, but no one could answer the question until 12/20. At 8 AM on 12/20, Shellie, the billing manager, called and was extremely hostile and stated that I was not owed a refund because I signed a waiver. I needed clarification on the approach and the tone, and I asked for a breakdown of the charges to ensure everything was in place. As I started explaining the background of the costs, Shellie interrupted me and stated, "If you have all the answers, why am I on the phone?". I then let the billing manager, Shellie, know that her speaking to me that way would not be accepted and asked for a manager. Shellie proceeded to tell me that "she heard that I yelled at everyone that I spoke to yesterday." I informed her that I felt as if she was attacking my character and painting an angry black woman picture because my voice was not raised. I let her know that I did know how to conduct myself in conversation. I once again asked for the manager's name, and Shellie gave me the wrong number and threatened to hang up the phone in my face too. I called the number she provided and received a rude answer from the front desk staff. I asked to speak with Dave, and Shahliq came to the line and said she was a manager. I explained the situation. She then said, "If that occurred, then it shouldn't have." I let her know there are no "ifs" about the situation because that is what happened. She took my information and said she would call me back in half an hour. Two hours passed, and I have not received communication from Shaliq. I called back to get placed on another 20-minute hold and speak with the operations manager, Monica. I told Monica who I was, and she immediately told me, " I am not due for a refund," when she came on the phone. As I told the previous representative, I sought an understanding and itemized receipt with a breakdown of all the charges. I then stated that my problem was with the billing manager, Shellie, and the hostile, racist environment that she created during a simple follow-up conversation. I expressed my discomfort about attending the practice. Monica, the Operations Manager, stated that she has been friends with Shellie, Debbie, and Shahliq for a long time and hopes they aren't racist. I told her that I didn't feel comfortable with her having a conversation to ensure that this wouldn't happen again because of the close nature of their relationship. She stated that there was nothing that she could do about that, and I informed her that I would be filing a complaint. read more

Can't say enough good things about the doctors who work here. I was absolutely terrified of having lasik eye surgery- not to mention that I have general anxiety and panic attacks, but Dr. Mckeeassured me everything would be fine all the way though. He worked with me with my anxiety medications and cheered me on through the whole surgery, honestly could not have done it without him. Afterwards, I was shocked that I had absolutely no pain and discomfort just tired eyes so I slept most of the day. Now I can see and I am so happy I finally did it! And I definitely have Dr. McKee to thank for it. read more

I have listened to Michael for years and listened to him brag on the businesses that advertise with him. Just thought it was promotional talk, but I have had the opportunity to use two of his preferred companies, and I am amazed at the service I received! My wife was referred to Doctor Whitsett and the Whitsett Vision Group and my wife, and I have never been treated more professionally!!! These people are amazing; the offices are not just adequate, they are almost elegant. Doctor Whitsett is like working with an old friend and is amazingly masterful in his skilled treatment!!! Got to watch my wifes surgery and I was amazed. Go to this group for your eye treatments! read more

I can't even begin to say how much I love and appreciate Dr. Woon. I have a rare neurological condition and went through a plethora of rude and/or incompent Drs before I found her. She really listens and works with you to get a treatment plan that works. She has a specialty in neuro-optomology, but she treats my mom for regular vision checkups and issues. All I can say is I'd best lost without her, and I am forever grateful for her. Even if I leave Houston I'll come back to her for my check ups for as long as she has a practice. read more

Whitsett Vision Group - Memorial - Moving one but not both locations. - Laser Eye Surgery/Lasik Near Me - Houston, Texas

Saw Dr. Woon as an emergency referral, blown away by the professional staff, the uber cleanliness encountered and the positive upbeat help with her assistant, Christie. No nonsense, the facts of what a treatment plan needed to be was not diagosed with concussion or TBI as other docs had done. Shot my head full of steroids, not a panacea yet, but will continue to see her until the headaches are gone permanently. Confident in her treatmen and I don't say that lightly after the past two weeks from hell. She is aware that I don't have vision insurance and is working on getting billing run through BC/BS, fingers crossed. Will shoot my jaws with Botox to relieve the pain from TMJ, if that works, a miracle has occurred. Hopeful is my outlook. read more

I was referred to Whitsett Vision by my eye doctor as I had blurry vision in left eye, common after effect of cataract surgery I had in another state 4 years ago. Saw Dr. Wu for the diagnosis and Dr. McKey for laser surgery . Both treated me with kit gloves. Vison problems are very scary. Walked out seeing 100% better. All happened very quickly and painlessly. read more

I was referred to Dr. Whitsett after learning that I was not a candidate for LASIK due to my extreme nearsightedness. From my first appointment for a consultation through my two surgeries and follow ups, I have been treated with the utmost care from every member of the staff at both locations. I went from being legally blind to perfect eyesight and I could NOT be happier!!! I drive two hours to see this staff and I have ZERO regrets and would do it all again, over and over. read more

I had iLasik with Dr. Whitsett and am blown away by the results. Dr. Whitsett is very courteous, prompt with appointment times and really listens and takes time to answer all questions. I'm also a big fan of Dr. Fu who handled all of my pre-op testing. He was very thorough and patient with me. A big THANK YOU to the friendly, knowledgable staff -- Eileen and Kelly are the best! Thank you, Whitsett Vision Group! read more

Jess McKey, MD, was my ophthalmologist/surgeon for bilateral cataract surgery, the second eye surgery being one week after the first surgery. First of all, I was astounded how professional, warm and genuinely caring Dr McKey was all through the process. I have been involved with the medical profession in a university setting my entire life and this group is outstanding! Efficient, honest and always on time. A real treat; but the best part was the outcome which, if I'd known how pain-free and how wonderful the colors appeared even the next day were, I would have been there a lot sooner. Kudos to the Whitsett Vision Group. All medical practices in Houston could take a lesson from them. Love, love this office! read more

LOVE Dr. Woon!!! I was referred to her on emergency and she had been phenomenal! She is very personable and her staff has been SO accommodating! She personally called me with test results and talked me through some issues over the phone and was quick to bump up my appointment to survey the situation for herself. So impressed with how she and Whitsett Vision have performed and helped me!! read more

I needed a cataract surgeon and used Angie's list, which had served me well for electrical and plumbing work, but my experience with my cataract surgeon has been a nightmare. In writing this review I hope I can spare others from the consequences of using Dr. Whitsitt as a surgeon. I needed a cataract surgeon for congenital cataracts that made it close to impossible to pass a DMV test at age 58. I had the cataract surgery with Dr. Whitsett and it was the worst surgery I have ever experienced. I have had a double mastectomy, spinal laminectomies, hysterectomy, gallbladder removal, etc but this was the most unpleasant surgery ever. (When I mentioned this to Dr. Whitsell he was angry - not sympathetic. They would not sedate me sufficiently so I experienced pain and anxiety throughout. In the next few hours I was in a lot of pain and could not see to read or even watch TV. At my 1 day follow up I had my eyes tested and when Dr. Whitsett saw the results he said "That can't be right!" But it was. I had a surgically induced astigmatism that was not there before my surgery. He said "You're young - maybe it will heal" and walked out of the room. A month later, there was no change. Dr. Fu said my vision is stable and will not get better. I have terrible headaches (never had them before), no depth perception (stairs are a nightmare), can't read or view my computer monitor without covering my surgical eye. They said see you in two months!!!!! I am so disgusted with this practice. From now on I will only rely on friend's recommendations, not Angie's list for Medical referrals. read more

This place is great. The doctors are very personable and friendly. The staff is excellent. I got a contact here and then had lasix surgery on both eyes. I liked the results (20/20 vision) so much, I gave my kids lasix for graduation. No more glasses or contacts for us. Eight years later, just had my check up and my eyes are still great. Can't recommend them highly enough. read more

The staff is very low quality. The doctor's are fine, but the staff does not listen and pushes the Katy office - even when it was stated that I could not go out to the Katy office. They offered me an appointment for 1 week later when the manager told me an eye infection needed to be seen as soon as possilbe. When I said something about it being a week away and my eye hurt - she pushed the Katy office on me. read more

What a practice! I was so impressed with this doctors office when I was referred to them for an emergent eye condition. It was late in the afternoon when I discovered I had a very dangerous virus in my eye. My primary care MD called this group, and they fit me into their day without hesitation. Thirty minutes later, I was in Dr. Woon's office receiving an eye exam. She was very professional and approachable, while immediately putting me at ease. The front office staff were friendly and effecient, as well. I would highly recommend Whitsett Vision Group to anyone needing medical help with their vision needs. You won't be dissappointed! read more

I had LASIK vision correction surgery with Dr. Whitsett and it was an amazing experience from start to finish! The office staff and nurses are extremely competent and kind. Dr. Whitsett and Dr. Fu are the best! They made me feel at ease during the surgery and I came out with amazing vision!! I can't say enough about this office. If you are considering LASIK this is the place to go! read more

My wife had her multifocal procedure 3 and 4 weeks ago, she can not see longdistance for driving and the when she was checked by Dr. Whitsett he keep saying "Let's wait and see". She is very frustated with the procedure. read more

check other dr, that do this ,dr whitset talked me into a dual lens replacement in one eye , he said all will be fine and he would be with me all the way.well i started seeing halos all around the red tail lights at night and starburst from the headlights coming at me as well ,he acted like i was ceazy and got very arrogant, i told him to take it out.he did not want to he said i should live with it.he said if he took it out is was not reccomending it ,and that i would have 20/40 vision at best. and i PAID HIM$5000.00 cash if if he put the single lens in he wanted to charge me another $1000.00 to rent out the surgery center he uses .he does not only have his own surgury center! i knew he was lying on several of his statements,i lost all credibility with whitset. went to berkley had it re-done and all is much better, now. 20/20 vision and no halos ! i wasted 5000.00 dollars at whitset plz you dont do this to yourself money is hard to make and throw away like i did going to whitset !!!! read more
