Great experience
I go here for glaucoma treatment and I think Dr. Hickman is a good doctor.
Dr Hickman is the best Doctor I ever seen. He is super knowledgeable and professional, patient to listen to my concerns and willing to explain to me the medical terms, always has empathy. The entire team in the office are super nice, patient, and helpful.
Great Doctor! Great Staff! Medical and billing procedures are explained clearly and calmly. Smiles are given freely by all. Nice office with Bob Ross painting a picture while you wait. Thanks for taking care of my eyes!
Dr. Scott Hickman and his staff were a genuine joy to interact with throughout my entire procedure of cataract removal and sight adjustment, and I'm very happy with the results I received. At 78 I can now drive without corrective lenses, and need readers only for close work. I would unreservedly recommend Ad Astra Eye to anyone needing the medical services they provide.
Response from the ownerThank you Mrs Judy. Still young at 78!My husband had cataract surgery at the age of 62. They did a wonderful job. Staff and doctor are caring and make the scariness not so scary. I would recommend them 100% to anyone needing eye surgery.
Thanks to Dr. Hickman and the adjustable procedure I am now able to see spring in a new light, A light with spectacular clarity. I can read again without having to bend my neck in a position that causes harm to my back. I especially wanted to take the opportunity to thank Dr. Hickman for accommodating my special needs by showing me around the Surgery area which helped reassure me that my spinal condition would not be jeopardized by the pre-or post surgery procedures. The process seemed long and arduous, but the outcome was definitely worth it.
I can't praise enough the surgery Dr. Hickman performed on both of my eyes recently . I highly recommend him and his assistants.
Best eye dr and best team
Dr. Hickman and his team were outstanding. My vision was very poor prior to my cataract surgery and today....no eyewear or contacts!!!!! My results exceeded my expectations.
