The office was very clean.comfortable. Everyone was pleasant and explained what they were doing. Since I have not had any surgery on my eyes before they put me at ease.

Carolina Eye Associates is a very busy place, but extremely efficient. Very impressive and all associates were very polite and and helpful.

I recently had Dr Fakadej do my cataract surgery and she was fantastic. Took the time to explain my options in great detail. Highly trained and did excellent work.If this was just a review of Dr Fakadej I would give her 5 stars. I give Carolina Eye Associates 4 stars because while they have an outstanding team, offering high quality care- this is a high volume operation so you need to be prepared for extensive wait times as you are shuffled from one waiting room to the the next.I was told this was how it was, so I was prepared with work and reading materials.Their phone answering system is terrible, and they rarely return calls. I had an enormously difficult time getting my surgery scheduled after the initial evaluation, but persistence paid off.Would I recommend them? Yes I would based on the quality of the physicians. However, go into this realizing that it will be an extremely slow process once you are there.

DrThornberg was great.

Carolina Eye Associates take very good care of their patients. The only issue I would have with them is the waiting times. Patients have to wait to see the nurse/technician who takes initial information, then wait for a room, then wait for the doctor, then wait to check out at the end of the visit. This is somewhat frustrating!
