Testimonials

Reviews From Our Satisfied Patients

    Wonderful doctor and courteous staff. Little to no wait time. Speedy delivery on glasses and contacts. Highly recommend.

    Amy R. - Google Review

    Dr. Vaught is, hands down, the best. She is thorough, knowledgeable, and compassionate. She has stayed late and opened early to accommodate me and my family when she didn’t have to. After my husband went to see her, and she recommended the perfect contacts for his dry eyes, his exact words were, “Why haven’t my past eye doctors done what she does, do they not know how?”

    Amber K. - Google Review

    I’ve never been so confident with stating how satisfied I was with a service. Dr. Vaught has superb bedside manner and can tell she’s truly passionate about what she does. She took the time to discuss the difficulties I’ve had in the past with contact lenses, and was willing to find a solution. I have followed Dr. Vaught to the few practices she has been a part of. If you’re looking for a long-term eye professional, Vaught Family Eye Care is definitely where you want to be!

    Carley H. - Google Review

    Great experience with every visit! My husband has some issues due to eye surgery years ago. Dr Vaught was referred to us for our special needs and now we wouldn’t go anywhere else. Knowledgeable, detailed and most of all caring. Highly recommend Dr. Vaught and her staff.
