Ratings, Reviews and Recommendations for Lasik Procedures and Optometrists

Wednesday, February 15th, 2012

Recently, we posted on our Facebook page, (click here to check it out) and asked how you conduct personal research, when looking for reviews on healthcare professionals and namely, Lasik and eye surgery procedures.  There are a lot of great sites out there that offer independent and consumer tested reviews and Commonwealth Eye Surgery is proud to be represented, on what we consider, a 5 star standard, on sites most used by consumers for their reviews.  We always say that our patients still say it best (see a few for yourself, here) and you can read or watch the many recommendations and testimonials that our patients leave for anyone looking for a similar, great experience in eye surgery.  However, we want to provide you with a complete list of sites and links so that you can check out the reviews on Commonwealth Eye Surgery along with Dr. Ferguson, and search recommended surgical centers for Lasik and Optometrists, for yourself.

Commonwealth Eye Surgery has always been highly recommended via word of mouth, family, and friends and by local community reputation for years.  Dr. Ferguson has performed over 60,000 successful ophthalmic eye surgeries, including Lasik, and serves on the Boards of both the American Board of Eye Surgery and the American College of Eye Surgeons.  He is the past President, however remains still on the board, of the American College of Eye Surgeons and serves on the Board of the Wilderness Medicine Society.  Along with the expert staff and support physicians at Commonwealth Eye Surgery, you can see why excellence is THE level of experience we seek and achieve with all our patients.
