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.

Great Experience
Everyone was so friendly and explained everything. I am amazed at the difference in my vision after cataract surgery. I thank God for Dr. Bierly and the staff! They even call a few days later to check on you and your healing. I definitely would recommend them.

Dad's cataract surgery

Excellent Care!
Dr. Bierly did my husband's cataract surgeries. He did such an excellent job that my husband's vision is now back to 20/20 after many many years of poor vision. He has given my husband a new lease on life. Dr. Bierly has a great bedside manner and is very professional. His staff are top-notch, professional, friendly, caring and knowledgeable. The office is extremely efficient. Dr. Bierly came highly recommended and we will pass along the recommendation. If you are in need of eye surgery I wouldn't hesitate to use him. Thank you Dr. Bierly!

Wonderful Experience
I could not have asked for a better experience. Dr. Bierly performed cataract surgery on both my eyes. Both surgeries went better than I expected. He came to talk to me before both surgeries and explained things to me. He and his team worked so well together. The atmosphere at the surgery center is wonderful. Highly recommend.

Professional and experienced
Dr. Bierly did my cataract surgeries in February and March of 2023. I had a GREAT experience with great results. I found him to be personable and professional. He is kind and listens. He answered all my questions. I saw him before and after both surgeries. He is experienced in cataract surgery (which is what you want!) The staff at Southeast Eye was very good - attentive, kind, happy, and felt like a family of caregivers. Would go there again.

Still seeing great after cataract surgery
Dr. Bierly did my cataract surgery almost 15 years ago and later did my YAG capsulotomies. I see 20/20 uncorrected. He does a great job.

Never get to see Dr. Bierly Before or after the clowns that work for him send you to him, talking about the other Dr.'s they are the most unprofessional people you will ever run into in a Dr. OFFICE, WOULD Not ever recommend Dr. Bierly because of the people he surrounds himself with ,they tell you what you are seeing out of your eyes and if you try to tell them something different they go nuts, just guessing but don't think they learned this behavior at College. Ps: the staff seem to care and are professional.

PLEASE READ IF OVER 50 YEARS OLD!!! prior to cataract surgery I had 20/20 vision with glasses, I now have torn retina and PVD. My eye doctor stated I had cataracts. had scan of both eyes and was told they were healthy and was assured by the Southeast Eye Specialist they had a 99% success rate. Okay...this is were there cover-up begins to fall apart. Their "success rate" is only good for a few hours following surgery and if you are under 50 years old! I'm now told I'm blind because of my age.
