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.

Fabulous doctor and staff

After almost more than 10 years dealing with Emory Eye center in Atlanta, I was referred to Dr. Reynolds and I can’t believe less than few months finally I can enjoy my eyesight again. I’m lucky to find such a knowledgeable professional eye care center right in our city.

Just recovering
Dr Reynolds and his team are top notch. He’s the quarterback and all the other members of his team have their positions down. My eyes after Cataract surgery are better than expected ,highly recommend.

Thank God for Dr Reynolds!
I had put off cataract surgery for years because of retina issues in the past. My world had become much darker and I could no longer read or drive at night. God led me to Dr Reynolds. Dr Reynolds was confident and assured me he could give me my sight again and he did! Colors are vivid! I can see distance clearer than I ever have in my life. I can drive at night! I’ve never reviewed a doctor before , but I had to share my experience. I’m so thankful for God’s leading me to Dr Reynolds!

I CAN SEE AGAIN!
I had cataract surgery on both eyes and now have the clearest sight I've ever had! He explained what needed to be done with clear, simple-to-understand answers to the many questions I had. I also appreciate his sense of humor! While he is not Bo Derek, he is most certainly a 10! P.S. To The Covidiots: A face diaper won't protect you. Covidiocy and Mon(k)eyPox (the K is silent) will continue until there is mass non-compilence...

Best Eye Doctor
I have been a patient of Dr. Reynolds for close to 30 years. He has taken care of everyone in my family and my husband’s family. Dr. Reynolds has always been professional at every visit, and is in my opinion the best opthamologist in Chattanooga. He reviews each chart the night before surgery and is a perfectionist, which is what I want in a doctor. I would rather have quality care than anything else, and he provides that to his patients.

Need long lead time to get appt. but I've been seeing him most of the time over 20 years. (Sometimes I see one of his associates rather than waiting a few months; they too have been good.). His patience is variable but I trust him and found he went way out of his way to help me with extremely high eye pressure on a Sat. Had to perform some kind of surgery and admitted me to Erlanger for 1 night. One does not forget such kindness!

Dr. Reynolds has been our ophthalmologist since he went into private practice. He did several surgies on my parents, in-laws, sister and my husband and I. We've only had wonder experiences with every one. He, his office staff and surgical staff are wonderful. We highly recommend him! Thanks to them all!

Dr. Reynolds has been my optolmoglist for 30 years and is tops in his profession. He has remained on the cutting edge of eye care and is a top notch eye surgeon improving the vision of thousands. His office is among the best run offices I have seen. He is committed to taking whatever action necessary to mitigate the spread of Covid 19 and any reviews to the contrary are baseless.
