"I’ve worked as a nurse anesthetist for 20 years, the last 12 concentrating on ophthalmology and cosmetic surgery procedures. Over that time I’ve worked with many talented surgeons, so when my glasses started to become an annoyance I knew what I was looking for in a surgeon to perform my Lasik. Dr. Newsom was clearly my one and only choice. Having witnessed first-hand his extraordinary surgical talent coupled with a very unusual ability to remain calm, cool and collected during even the most challenging cataract cases, I knew that he was my man! The procedure took about 10 minutes during which I felt calm and had no discomfort. The recovery was easy, requiring some eye drops but no pain. My vision (corrected for mono-vision) is 20/20 and I only use reading glasses to start IV’s on patients so as not to feel insecure. Otherwise my vision is perfect for reading, watching TV, and driving, even at night! My confidence in Dr. Newsom was well founded."

"Excellent. Extremely happy with the results of surgery. Very professional and efficient staff. Very important was that there was never a long wait for scheduled appointments. Will and have referred to others."

"I would definitely recommend Dr. Newsom and his clinic to my friends, patients, and colleagues. Everything went well, as expected. Dr. Newsom, the Patient Coordinator, and all of the staff members did an excellent job!"

"..Thank you so much for the excellent LASIK experience. I love my "new" eyes. I can not tell you how much of a life changing experience this has been. No glasses, no contacts, no nothing!. In fact, 3 days after my surgery I was buzzing your house in my plane. Again, I would like to thank your wonderful staff for all their encouragement and support I am very pleased and I will send all my friends and family to see you"

..Thanks to Dr. Newsom's friendly and caring staff, I felt extremely comfortable on the day of the surgery. The procedure itself was painless and lasted only about 12 minutes from start to finish. I was amazed that it was done so quickly. After the procedure, they asked me to go home and rest my eyes for a couple of hours. I'll never forget waking up from an afternoon nap and saying to myself "I can see clearly..already". I haven't said that in 20 years! It was as though I have a fresh set of contact lenses in, and my vision is crisp and clear, without the hassle. Additionally, my night vision and reading vision is great. I couldn't be more satisfied with the results..."

"I am amazed at the difference in my eyes. I can see better than I thought possible. Dr. Newsom & his staff were wonderful . The people at work say that I'm a walking billboard. I've been telling everyone about it."

"Everything went perfectly! Dr. Newsom, Dr. Bucci, and the staff were extremely helpful and professional before, during, and after the surgery. Dr. Newsom's experience was evident and I would certainly recommend Newsom Eye & Laser Center to anyone looking to have LASIK."

"The staff and Dr. Newsom were informative, courteous, and overall outstanding throughout the whole process. I would highly recommend Dr. Newsom to anyone wishing to pursue LASIK."

"..It has been nearly a week now and my eyesight improves every day. I am completely satisfied with the results of my lasik surgery experience and I would recommend anyone looking for this type of vision correction to contact Dr. Hunter Newsom and his staff to schedule a screening. I can truly say that Dr. Hunter Newsom and his professional staff have changed my life."

"..Dr Newsom and his entire staff are friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and extremely professional. Highlands County is fortunate to have Dr. Newsom and his professional staff Anyone who has ever considered LASIK eye surgery should definitely come see Dr. Newsom and his staff.."

"Very pleased with surgery, no problems at all. After 20 years I am seeing 20/20 again. Best decision I ever made. Staff always friendly & helpful. Dr. Newsom is great!"
