What Our Patients Say

I visited due to a friends recommendation and was extremely impressed with the quality of service from the front line staff, to the Dr. himself. Dr. Benjamin Paxton was absolutely wonderful and took the time to educate me about everything he was doing. The professional staff that did the work prior to the doctor walking in were out of this world. I really couldn't imagine a better place to go now that I've been. Also, if you need to get your eye's checked, consider the Optomap instead of getting your eyes dilated. It was worth the convenience in my opinion. I was reminded 4 times of my appointment and when I arrived 5min before I was to be seen in less than 10min and I was done in about 40min

I was extremely impressed with the entire staff’s attention to Covid safety. I almost decided to skip an appointment this year, due to being at high risk for the virus. However, I felt extremely comfortable with their precautions (more so than at my own doctors office). The receptionist and my doctor were both fantastic but a special shout out to Nicole for her help with the selection of glasses. She was very friendly and extremely helpful!

I had an intense pain in my eye and had a hard time sleeping the night before. I called the following morning and explained my situation and how much pain I was in. They worked me in quickly and were so considerate and kind. After prescribing what I believe was a magic potion for my eye, I was seen the next day and felt 10 thousand times better-- turned out to be a corneal abrasion. I would give them five stars all day long and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great eye doctor! That was my first experience with them but it most definitely won't be my last (let's just hope my next visit is routine, lol). Thanks so much to the wonderful doctors and staff that handled a terrible and somewhat scary situation in a way that made me feel more at ease and overall very happy with my experience.

Overall, I like Gaddie Eye Center fine. I was able to get in fairly quickly for an unexpected issue. Dr. Bassett is super sweet and even did extra research for an issue I was having. I really appreciated that. I do, however, wish they would be more upfront about the cost of appointments before being seen, rather than telling me the cost after the appointment when I don't have a choice but to pay. I also wish they would inform patients of additional costs of certain things they do during an appointment (such as taking pictures). I was not aware it was an additional charge until I checked out. Otherwise, I think it's a good place for general eye care.

I had a wonderful experience. I have been to competitors and the level of service at Gaddie Eye Centers vs. the others can't be measured accurately with stars. I would highly recommend these physicians and their staff.
