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.

Dr Searcy is the best Dr you will ever find
Both Dr Searcy and his entire staff are the best you will ever experience. You wait and want for nothing. You will see better than you ever thought possible when he is done. Very compassionate and nice man. Thankyou, Craig Otto

Dr. Searcy performed several eye surgeries for me, both scalpel and laser. and each one went very well. His staff was kind and communicative. Dr. Searcy is a wonderful surgeon, who really knows what he's doing, and my vision is so much better now. I no longer needs glasses. In addition, Dr. Searcy is the kindest man, who really puts his patients at ease. I can recommend him highly.

My experience with Dr. Searcy was good until he was confronted with the challenge of diagnosing my eye diseases. Even though symptoms were clearly present, he was not able to diagnose the diseases on the first attempt. His subordinates presented me with diagnoses on the second attempts, which occurred just a few weeks after the first efforts. I am very disappointed with Dr. Searcy’s diagnostic capabilities and have decided to go with another primary ophthalmologist.

Referred to Dr Searcy for cateract surgery after my yearly eye appointment. I was nervous about it. Everyone I had contact was nice and professional. Dr Searcy was awesome he explained everything and assured me I was in good hands. I am very happy and pleased with process and and outcome. I had spoke caterats which made me very uncomfortable driving on brite sunny days and at night, bc oncoming headlights was almost blinding. I now have 20/20 vision. I highly recommend you make an appt. with Dr Searcy's office for your eyecare needs.

Dr. Searcy has been my doctor for well over a decade and was the surgeon who performed my cataract operations nine years ago. My surgery was a success and I have been very pleased with the care I have received. I would definitely recommend Dr Searcy to anyone looking for an experienced and compassionate doctor.

Yes, I would highly recommend Dr. Searcy. He did both of my catarac surgeries (complete with lens implants) and I see with 20/20 vision now - no glasses! So grateful and pleased that my checkups are handled with thorough testing to make sure we catch anything else that might creep up.

I highly recommend Dr Searcy. He performed my cataract surgery & successfully restored my vision to 20/20. Two years ago during my annual exam he detected an issue that was later diagnosed as macular degeneration in my left eye. Because of his attention to details the macular degeneration was caught in the early stages & with treatment I have not experienced any loss of vision. Dr Searcy would be my choice every time.

Dr. Searcy is a miracle worker. I wore glasses from 4th grade on and bifocals for to many years and going on 75. My appointment today showed 20/20 vision both eyes. My cataracts were so bad could barely see colors. Everyone that works there smiles and lets you know they're glad to see you. Can't think of enough words to describe how they treat their patients. They're very thorough and let you know every step before they do it. Can't imagine ever going anywhere else for my eyes

My annual eye exam was due during Covid-19 in 2020. The process was seamless -you wore a mask, were asked 2 questions - had you been sick or around anyone who was sick over the past 2 wks. Your temperature was taken. Social distancing. The best part was - I had schedule this appointment over 1 year ago and forgot about it. Dr. Searcy personally called and asked if I was coming. The best part about this process is.. I'm still seeing 20/20 after my basic eye surgery 19 years ago. Very grateful that I found this practice and Dr. Searcy.

Dr. Searcy has been taking care of my eyes since I moved to Central Ohio ten years ago. He removed cataracts three years ago and restored my vision to 20/20. Not bad for an 80 year old diabetic with a pacemaker! He and his staff provide excellent, professional and personable care in an efficient yet friendly manner-they are the best.

I was referred to Dr. Searcy about 10 years ago when on an exam for glasses the doctor noticed an indentation in my eye indicating glaucoma and referred me to Dr. Searcy. He has taken care of me since helping with pressures in my eyes with laser surgeries and removing the start of cataracts and implant of lenses so I do not wear glasses anymore and my vision has stayed stable since 2011 and the technicians and doctors are amazed how good my eye site is.
