"Dr. Thomas provides exceptional, dedicated patient care. She is very knowledgeable offering expertise in eye care. She takes her time to explain things, in a manner that is easy to understand."

— Healthgrades patient review (Dr. Tincy Thomas)

"I was at the office for over 3 hours for a simple exam. The only explanation given was “it’s crazy here on Tuesdays”... The care is fine. The office management needs improvement. They don't respect your time."

— LocalityBiz patient review (Lakeland Eye Clinic)

"If you want the BEST eye exam you will ever have, you must go to Dr. Trawick. Not only is he the kindest man, he does the best exam."
