"Happy I went to Wang Vision - I had a wonderful experience at Wang Vision. I was very nervous about SMILE but was walked through every step of the process and felt comfortable going forward. All members of the team are experienced, helpful, and patient. Cameron, Dr. Guduru, Gabby, and Dr. Zimmerman were excellent! "

"Just had my SMILE procedure done at Wang Vision Institute yesterday 07/10/24. And it is incredible how quickly my eyes are healing and vision is improving! I had my post-op appointment today and I am already seeing 20/20 less than 24 hours after surgery! The surgery was done by Dr. Guduru. He did a great job. He was very calm and gave great instructions of what to do during surgery. I highly recommend him. The surgery was intense and definitely not something I want to do everyday haha, but Dr. Guduru did a fantastic job. Gabby was with me for most of the day before my surgery doing eye tests and talking me through what the day would look like. She also assisted Dr. Guduru during surgery. She has a beautiful personality and is an incredible sweet and genuine woman. She helped make my experience better. I also saw Dr. Zimmerman for my consultation before surgery. He was very personable and informative. He explained everything and answered all my question. I appreciated him taking his time and not rushing the consultation. I also worked with Ashley over the phone to set my initial appointment up. She is incredibly sweet and very informative. She helped get all my appointments set up and let me know what to expect. If you are considering any type of eye procedure, I would highly recommend seeing Wang Vision Institute."

"I'm so happy I went to Wang Vision Institute my experience here has been great! I was recommended by my dad who also had PRK done through them. The people at the front desk are so sweet and love their energy :). When I arrived for my appointment I was welcomed and instructed to fill out some paperwork. The waiting room is nice and has snacks // drinks for you as well as Wi-Fi. Jamie did my initial screening as well as my eyelid cleaning for the procedure. She was super friendly and gave me warnings before doing something so I was informed during the entire process. Dr. Zimmerman did my consultation and recommended PRK for me. He also answered any questions I had and was very thorough when explaining the process and what the recovery period would look like. After my consultation I met with Cameron to discuss pricing and different plans. Cameron is also great!! and I've been able to contact him with any additional questions I've had. I came back the following week for my surgery. Dr. Jones did my procedure and it lasted about 2 minutes total it was super quick and I've had great results so far. Thank you everyone!!!"

"I’ve been wanting to get LASIK for years and was always too nervous. Once I was ready, I chose Wang Vision Institute because of the really high reviews and I’m so glad I did. They were able to get me in very quickly for a consultation and allowed me to do my surgery on the same day. I had a strong prescription and my vision was almost perfect the very next day when I woke up. They have a free consultation and great financing plans. All the staff were very friendly and went above and beyond. I have really bad anxiety and the staff really helped me feel at ease and like I was in good hands. Big thank you to Cameron, Scott, and Dr. Zimmerman and all the other employees. Everyone was happy to answer any questions you have. Dr. Jones did my surgery and talked me through the whole thing. The surgery was painless and so quick. Would definitely recommend to do a consultation if you’re on the fence!"

"I had the SMILE procedure done at the Wang Vision Institute by Dr. Jones. Both Dr. Jones and Dr. Zimmerman were great to work with and extremely thorough. I couldn’t be more pleased with the results or the process. I should have done the procedure 10 years ago. I couldn’t recommend this place enough."
