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.
I was very impressed with Dr. Parisi. He was thorough, and saw the area I was concerned about. Dr. Parisi offered laser treatment and I can already tell a difference. Thank you Dr. Parisi..

Dr. Parisi was great at informing me about my lasik surgery. He was very patient with me during surgery and even called on Saturday to follow up and make sure all was well.

I was ready for cataract surgery. My case was complicated by the fact that I had Lasik surgery several years earlier. They did extensive evaluation and then Dr. Parisi explained the issues to me about the increased difficulty of estimating what lens implant strength would be correct, and gave me his recommendations regarding my surgery.
All went well, and I ended up with exactly the outcome for which I had been hoping. I had to use just 1 prescription eyedrop once per day post-op! Easy!

Dr. Parisi performed my LASIK surgery on 8/4 and I could not be happier! You can tell he knows what he's doing and his confidence is very comforting! My actual surgery took 5-10 minutes and it was easily the best thing I have ever done for myself! I will be back this Friday For my Husband to have his Surgery.
*Note. The wait time listed is only as high as it is because it was on Surgery day. The staff did a WONDERFUL job of keeping all patients rotating through each pre-op phase smoothly.

I would recommend Dr. Parisi to anyone who wants to have Lasik done. I recently had Lasik done at Clemson Eye and Dr. Parisi worked on me. He performed the surgery so fast that the time seemed to fly by. And he answered all of my questions following my surgery.

Dr. Parisi provided excellent care. My lasik surgery went extremely well. I was nervous about the procedure. However, staff at CLEMSON EYE (Greenville), were very kind and eased my worries.
Dr. Parisi answered my questions, was polite and knowledgable.
Thank you all,

Dr. Parisi was great! LASIK can be scary to think about, so I appreciated how professional he was with me. I genuinely felt calm while I was having surgery. My eyes feel so much better, and I love having no contacts or glasses in my life. If you are on the fence, just do it!

The 5 minutes I spent with the Doctor was not worth the 2 hours and 15 minute wait. I'm sure he's a good doctor based on other reviews but I cannot believe I had to wait over 2 hours. What's worse are other patients freely stated they typically wait 1 1/2 to 3 hours to see the doctors at Clemson Eye.
