Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Thank you Dr. Nethery, my experience was great!
I was there for cataract surgery and there were several visits in order to prepare. Each one went well and the staff was very professional. I'm very happy with the results. I now have 'brand new' eyes.

The worst Doctor experience
This Dr was hostile and disrespectful to me. Thankfully, he canceled my surgery because of how he treated me. I am also a health professional and have advanced degrees. On the very rushed first visit, we discussed that I wanted mono vision cataract surgery. On the second visit with has staff (measurements) I asked what implants he would use. The response was "Dr. Nethery knows what he is doing." I came for surgery, and made the mistake of asking the nurse how strong the close eye lens would be. The next thing I know dr Nethery is standing next to me with hands on hips "WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM!!! When I tried to reply, the nurse took us in a private room. I tried to tell him I needed close vision because I tied flys & I fly fished. He said "YOU ALREADY TOLD ME THAT. OH, YOU WOULDN'T REMEMBER, YOU ARE 78 YEARS OLD." He said I would not have surgery that day. I have NEVER forgotten this disrespectful way he treated me. Yes I am elderly, but I still have a brain.

excellent
Dr Nethery and his staff are wonderful cataract surgery 3 years ago has been a blessing and no effort was made to "sell" the type of lens I needed... in fact, I was given clear understanding as to why I should not entertain or attempt a more sophisticated lens, and he explained why my particular history required the simple lens which was completely covered by Medicare. My ability to perceive color accurately was restored which has been a great blessing, as I am a portrait artist whose career has spanned 45 years Only praise for my experience with Dr Nethery and his staff (Kate. the new assistant was delightful and easy to talk to..

Excellent visit
Saw Dr Nethery last week for possible cataracts. I was ready for the chance I might be sold cataract surgery, but that wasn't the case at all. Dr Nethery and his staff were very friendly and informative and I was actually told I didn't need surgery yet. He recommended I follow-up with him in the next 6 mos - 1 yr, whichever I felt comfortable with. Great visti!!

Rude, arrogant and inappropriate.
Saw Dr. Nethery for a routine eye exam. Gave me a hard time about wearing a mask into the office and being concerned about covid. Brought politics in the appointment. Lectured me and was incredibly rude, arrogant and misinformed. Will never go back.

I had cataract surgery on my eyes here in Hurst several years ago before I knew about Dr. Neathery. Nothing but problems. Wish I had known about him then. I think one of the worst decisions people make is to go to a particular doctor because "he is close." That's not a good reason to choose a doctor. Dr. Neathery is a fine doctor and very caring.

I had both eyes done, one in late November, and one in early December 2019. I chose the PanOptic multi focal lens after the rave reviews the doctors staff gave them. This was a$3300 per eye upgrade. I was told that I was an excellent candidate for them and would absolutely love them. My experience has been less than described. I recently made an appointment to get checked to see if there was a problem. I was told by the doctor I was old and needed to manage my expectations, I am 68 in in excellent overall health. He went onto say elderly people should realize that they are old and they are just not going to get great results. The surgery and the staff are good, I would never recommend Doctor Nethery.
