Went in for a consultation and I felt it was very thorough and used advanced technology that not everyone has.
He is the absolute best, hands down. He really knows his stuff and I trust him. His staff are also the best!

Good
Do not see this doctor. He is rude, abrupt, and spent no more than two minutes with me in total. I have been to eye doctors all of my life and have never had a negative experience until today. Even though you may have to wait longer to get an appointment with another doctor, it is worth the wait Now I know why it was so easy to get an appointment with him.‘

My visit was amazing! The staff were all very friendly and made me feel at home. When I first met Dr. Christenbury he reassured me that LASIK would be effective for me and made me feel very comfortable about the procedure. Before the surgery I was 20/400 and almost legally blind! After my eyesight has never been better. It felt so great not to have to wear glasses or contacts and my eyes felt great! I enjoyed my experience and recommend Dr. Christenbury at Christenbury Eye Center to everyone!
The doctor seemed nice. However, the staff was very impersonal. The woman who took me through the tests also never changed her gloves as we went from room to room and she touched keyboards and put drops in my eyes. Also she was wiping down the equipment with alcohol but the drying it with a tissue, not allowing the alcohol to kill the germs. I think she needs a lesson in sanatation. I told her once she need bot dry it off and she said she did need too. I was put off by all of this.
My visit was great. Everyone was very nice to me and explained the procedure and how everything was going to happen. I thought it was going to take a while but not at all. It was very quick and I felt very comfortable.
Christenbury Eye Center has totally changed my outlook on life! After having lasik with Dr. Christenbury, my vision is 20/15 in both eyes, meaning I'm seeing better now than I was with my glasses and contacts. the procedure was quick and painless. I'm so glad I made the decision to have lasik with Dr. Christenbury. He's given me the chance to look at life in a whole new light!
