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 can see clearly now!!

I recently had LASIK surgery with Dr. Hodges and it is hands down one of the best decisions I've ever made! For years I had been told by other doctors/practices that surgery would be out of the picture due to the severity of my astigmatism, until Hodges Eye Care and Surgical Center did their testing and confirmed that I was in fact a candidate for the LASIK surgery. First, the people at Hodges really do care about their patients and their entire staff is highly competent and compassionate. This goes all the way from the surgery coordinator Diana, the nursing/tech staff, and all the doctors involved in my care. Dr. Hodges is very down to earth and his experience/credentials speak for themselves. I felt very confident in leaving my eyesight in his care. I extremely recommend Hodges Eye Care and Surgical Center for all of your eye care needs.

I had cataract surgery on both eyes in late January 2019. My initial consultation met all my expectations as staff and doctors were well informed and provided me with the needed information to make an informed decision. The surgery went as planned and staff and doctors walked me through the complete process with expertise. Would highly recommend.

Would give infinite star review if possible. Dr Hodges and his entire team provide professional, courteous, knowledgeable and skilled service in every regard. My cataract process and procedure was seamless and painless. I am looking forward to having my second eye done next week. Thank you for exceeding my expectations!

I have been going to Hodges since he started at Grimm many years ago. I have always been treated extremely professionally, kindly and considerately. He had taken me through multiple eye problems, surgeries and regular checkups. I wouldn't go to anyone else.

I have recommended Dr. Hodges to all my friends. I have been a patient of his for many years because of my optic atrophy and glaucoma on top of it. He is a very caring and empathetic man that listens.

I was recommended to Dr.Hodges Clinic for cataract surgery from Lens Crafter. My experience could not have been better for me. I found the staff and the Doctor very pleasant, knowledgeable and very informative. I knew the day I left when my surgery was scheduled and what type of lens I would need. I was very apprenhensive about having any type of surgery on my eyes. But I knew it had to be done. The employess went abaove and beyone makeing me feel comfortable.

Being age 74, I expect some level of communication from a doctor regarding observations, recommendations, etc. I found the entire staff including the doctor, to be lacking in basic skills of making a new patient feel welcome or that they were even present. I recently called the office to ask for a copy of my I prescription and was questioned by a clerk as to whether I had paid my copayment She said I would get a call back which I never did. I will never go back to this practice again.
