Posted by Margaret Schenck. Dr. Benson was wonderful to work with. She performed cataract surgery on both my left and right eyes. She recommended a special lens for my left eye to correct the astigmatism and that has worked out very well. Dr. Benson is knowledgeable explaining all procedures in an understandable way. She was through and extremely competent, patient and caring. I cannot say enough positive things about her. We will be returning to her when my husband requires cataract surgery.

Dr Benson is the best. She is skilled and takes time to listen. My spouse also sees her and agrees. She has done surgery on both of us with great success and no complications

Sometimes, when choosing a health practitioner, you have to choose between competence and character. With Dr. Christy Benson, you get the utmost in both. She is an extremely talented surgeon, and also one of the most caring doctors we have ever encountered. In addition, her surgical staff was attentive and caring. If you need eye surgery, Dr. Benson is the physician I would highly recommend.

Dr Benson is without a doubt thee most amazing cataract surgeon there is. Christy is so kind and caring. She was so empathetic to my situation. She took time to actually listen to me unlike my optometrist and assured me she would be there and fix what needed fixed. She did just that. The cataracts are out of both eyes now and I no longer need glasses. A blessing I just cannot begin to explain. If you are having eye issues please call and get an appt with Dr. Christy Benson. I guarantee you, she will do everything in her power to help you. I am forever grateful to her and will never forget how wonderful she was to me. Now I get to spend all my hubbys money on fun sunglasses.

Dr Christy Benson diagnosed my Occult Macular Degeneration very early, (which often goes undetected) and was able to treat it effectively. She also was the only one to diagnose that I had cataracts, (this after years of seeing another professional) and even took care of one of them on her birthday. (!) Dr Benson has provided me with the best of care over the years, explaining everything thoroughly, and my options moving forward. She has earned my trust. I would recommend Dr. Benson to anyone that is looking for one of the best in her discipline. Brian L Millard

Dr Benson is excellent surgeon and caring doctor. She was recommended to me when my sight was failing and the doctor I went to could not figure it out. She recommended cataract surgery and I am so glad she did. The surgery center is one of the best in the Midwest. The surgery went well and I can see great! Dr Benson is a expert in cataracts and glaucoma. She is world lecturer in glaucoma. She is amazing and you can trust her!

Dr. Benson is amazing! She took the time to listen about my eye issue and was able to correct it after a specialist basically dismissed me. She went above and beyond to figure it out and I am so thankful for her patience and expertise! I have referred many of my friends to her who have been equally as pleased as me!
