Cataract & Eye Care Center of Dickson

These people are liars! Avoid at all costs. They lied about the cost of a glaucoma exam. Charged me double what they said. The exam was a joke. They did less than my optometrist does! All they did was take a picture of my eyes, check my pressure, and Dr. Porter looked in my eyes with a light. That's it! And then charged me a cash price of $400!Then said they wanted another appointment for a visual field test and another appointment for a pressure test. All this just because my eye pressure is somewhat high, but no sign of optic nerve damage. I wouldn't trust these people with anything. Huge waste of time and money. The Dr. didn't ask about my health, family history, diet, or anything. He didn't give any detailed description of what he saw in my eyes. I'm there because I'm worried and nervous about my eyes and this Dr. actually made an inconsiderate joke when I ask if a laser treatment would be painful! He said, "not to me." I found that comment rude and not funny at all. He also told me to go watch a YouTube video about a laser treatment instead of explaining it to me or even giving me a basic overview of the procedure! Dr. Porter only spent around 5 to 8 minutes in the room and most of that time was spent talking about where he went to college and how he was in the same dorm, only separated by years, as another doctor who developed the laser treatment for glaucoma. Who cares? I'm there to learn about eye pressure and glaucoma, and I learned absolutely zero there! Nothing! I also asked Proter about checking my cornea thickness because that could cause a higher pressure reading. He rejected my request and said that a nearsighted person wouldn't have a thick cornea, which is not true. Nearsightedness and a thick cornea can exist at the same time. Another lie they told me was that my dilated eyes would only last around 30 minutes. Bunk! It's been hours and still dialated. And they didn't even offer me any dark glasses for my eyes! Porter actually recommended a laser surgery for a disease that I don't even have! These people are scam artists Terrible experience. I'd give a negative star if possible. Avoid!!!

I've wore glasses since I was 18 months old. The Dr mentioned that I may not even need glasses after the surgery. I blew it off and was like yeah whatever. I'm still in shock of the fact I haven't put them on in months. This place I would highly recommend.

Staff goes out of their way to make everything smooth and flawless. Dr. W is wonderful and was very caring about my surgeries. He did a great job on both eyes.

JUST WOW. Our family has never experienced better medical care than what Dr. Porter and his amazing staff delivers. They operate as 'family' and are incredibly in sync and harmonious. It shows from beginning to end.
