REVIEWS OF Newsom Eye IN Florida

Nancy Del Rosal

Amanda at front desk was excellent and friendly! The eye glass staff should be acknowledged also! Great experience....

Without getting into too much detail, I would caution all to be very careful in going to Newsom Eye without getting a 2nd opinion. From top to bottom, it was a disappointing experience, but the biggest problem I had was the Doctor recommending surgery "within a week" after meeting with me for 10 minutes (after I waited for 2 hours in the dark eyes dilated). I got a 2nd opinion at a different retina specialist who found the same problems in my eye but told me it was 1/5,000 chance of ever becoming an issue. I feel bad for people who do not have the time or money to get a 2nd opinion and would have followed this Doctor's advice of an expensive, urgent surgery that is a 1 in 5,000 chance of becoming an issue. If you are recommended a surgery, I would get a 2nd opinion outside of Newsom Eye. With that said, the office manager was very nice and helpful in addressing my concerns.

Cynthia Hager

I was recently seen at Newsome Eyes in South Tampa. I was treated very well by Michelle B. and Nevi. They were very professional and made my visit enjoyable.

Lauren Betancourt

Priscilla at the front desk is extremely friendly and personable.

Karen Thompson

Ashley Kennedy

The staff and doctors were very professional and I was pleased with how knowledgeable and informative everyone was.

Milagros Cummins

Going to the Newsom Eye center is truly a pleasure. The doctors are excellent and the staff is wonderful. In particular, Priscilla is especially attentive and caring. I highly recommend Dr. Newsom and his staff for any of your optical needs.

David Salvador

Priscilla provided a great check-in experience for my first eye examination at this location

Holly Hollenbeck

Dr.Guggino did a great job on my 4 year olds strabismus surgery. His eyes are perfect! Seeing these other posts, it looks like the office has come a long way. I have never hardly had to wait anytime at all. Appointments seemed to move as scheduled and we have been in an out. The staff is friendly and everything flowed smoothly. We have been there 4 times this year for my 4 year old and my experience has been great every time! :-)

Joseph Dituri

I am a retired military guy. They told me NO PROBLEM...they would bill through tricare...then they set it up and billed...Then THEY BILLED ME TOO. When it all came down they overcharged tricare AND me and then BLAMED ME. Billing people just DO NOT CARE. Doctor was OK at best...but nothing to scream about.

Teresa Lea B

The staff is very professional, welcoming, and keeps patient flow smooth. Priscilla is very warm and nurturing to the patients and helps in any way she can to help people feel comfortable. Sarah has a personality that is very comforting to my kids, who tend to be a little shy during the exam. The optometrists have always been very charismatic and jovial like Dr. Petit. Thank you always Newsome eye.

Chrissy Garcia

Friendly staff but there were so many people in the lobby I had nowhere to sit (its a very large lobby) then waited 45 minutes, was taken back by the tech, eyes were dilated, then brought back out to the lobby to wait another 45 minutes, then brought back in again and waited another 25 minutes alone in an exam room for the doctor to examine my eyes, I will most likey never come back here again! What a waste of a good day off of work!

Deg'er Saner

I am so happy that I get my eyes taken care of at Newsomeye! I am one of those people who's had 20/20 vision when I was younger and it's been difficult to fit me with contact lenses...I am "a problem child" so to speak but Dr. Petit is one of the best opthalmologists I've ever been to. His enthusiasm and solutions he comes up with are excellent, especially for my contact lenses! In addition, the friendly staff and technicians like Nevi and Alex know what they are doing and are very helpful in every way. I also like their optical department with a lot of choices for frames and lenses! I'll be going there for a long time. Thank you NewsomEye!

David Johnson

Amy and Devin were awesome. Fantastic people and fantastic results.

ardyn '

Meh - Not great.

Ashley Lacombe

Priscilla is absolutely amazing, professional, and caring of the customer. I came into the office today to pick up my glasses, and to schedule my sons eye exam. Due To the current availability, she got him in Today. The team is great and professional! I love this place!

Devon McEndree

Jacob Flynn

I was a little concerned after reading some of the other reviews but my visit was great. Dr. Petit was fantastic and the office staff was friendly. I will be back and would recommend to anyone.

Melanie Margolese

Staff was great and I had a wonderful experience but when I arrived for my eye exam, I was told co-pay would be $60 with my insurance. I paid the $60 and after my exam they told me it was a mistake and charged me $245. If I knew it wasn’t going be that price with my insurance, I wouldn’t have gone there in the first place.

Lisa Evas

Last week I needed to bring my mom in for an emergency visit after a failed visit at USF. Michelle did what she does best and took care of us immediately by telling me to just start driving to the SouthTampa location. to see Dr. Srivastiva. Scared, we walked into the office and was greeted at the front desk with a warm smile. I was immediately put at ease that mom was going to be treated good. (Yes I was scared, it was a Friday at the end of the day AND we were keeping them late) from start to finish the entire team was FANTASTIC! Huge shout out to the entire SOUTH TAMPA team for your kindness, professionalism and knowledge. THANK YOU!!!!

Karin Martin

Karin Martin-South Tampa Newsome Eye- has absolutely awesome doctors, and nurses. I want to say THANK YOU!!!!!

Brandy Williams

Don't do it! Go somewhere else.... wait time ridiculous, staff unorganized rude and unprofessional.

Walter Miller

The whole staff (Gina, Amanda, Alex, Priscilla, Dr. Petit) was so kind and friendly it made our visit a pleasure.

Ngoc Jade Dong

Dr Petit is amazing! Listens and is very attentive to problems. Priscilla is very fast and helpful! Staffs are great here. Highly recommended. Everyone is helpful and fun to talk to.

geratt evans

SO glad that Newsom bought out Guggino Eye. I couldn't be happier with my experience at Newsom Eye.

Tara Larabee

I had a wonderful experience! Doctor Srivastava was very professional, intelligent, and put me at ease right away. Nevi was extremely friendly and knowledgeable and made my visit that much better!

coreyendo Cam

Dr Newsome, Dr Fazio and staff have changed my life for the better. I went from blurry vision to vision that I never thought I could have with LASIK. It's an amazing feeling to be able to see without glasses or contacts. My nurse Enza and crew made me feel so comfortable that I never had a doubt in my mind about anything. Highly recommended!!!!

Tammy Kerr

Staff is always friendly. Priscilla was great with my teenage son

Dawna Rae Lazo

I desperately needed to see an Opthomoligist and I called and got a same day appointment . I was treated with such kindness , respect and professional , which was so greatly appreciated! The staff at the front office are simply amazing and I would recommend Newsom Eye in South Tampa to anyone who needs excelllence in care ! Thank you so much!!!

Stephanie Ferber

We recently moved to Tampa and had a visit with Dr. Grimm and her assistant Paloma today. The office is beautiful and we felt very welcomed from the moment we stepped inside. Paloma was very personable and efficient in gathering information and made my teen daughter feel at ease. Dr. Grimm is AMAZING! She is very knowledgeable, was very thorough and spent a lot of time with us and was so kind! We feel very fortunate to have found Newsome Eye and I made an appointment for my husband before we even left! I'll recommend Newsome Eye to everyone I know who is looking for an eye care provider!

Patricia Beacham

New some doctors and staff: Thanks for all you do. Your office climate is so great and comfortable. Thanks Amanda, now I have email. I’ve tried all year to establish email and you did it in 10 minute. The age of technology t is not kind to me. Thank you Kim too.

Mia Adamoni

The worst ! The staff is rude and all they care about is making money. Doctor newsome could care less about his patients. I’ve been to him Numerous times and he permanently ruined my vision and can’t even take a phone call to address the situation. Stay away from this con artist

Shermaine

Priscilla at the front desk was really nice and funny

Jaime Dixon

The doctors are amazing in this office. They spend time with their patients and provide good information. The staff is patient and friendly. I'm thankful to be a patient and to receive such great care.

Mary Long

This was my first time at Newsom Eye. It was a second opinion from St. Luke's. St. Luke's herded me in like cattle and was quick and not helpful with questions. They gave me a cataract exam, not an eye exam. Newsom was a WONDERFUL experience, The staff was well trained and completed a excellent exam and much better in the first 5 minutes of my exam. Dr. Garruto, spent a lot of time and answered a lot of questions. I do not have just cataracts, I have a lot going on and feel like I was well taken care of. You do not need a second opinion if you start at Newsom Eye. Thank you Michelle and Dr. Garruto and all the other staff.

SHELLEIGH HALL

I met Michele B. at the South Tampa office.. She was professional, friendly and courteous. I was very comfortable. She is a testament to her profession. Good job Newsom for finding and hiring her.

Elmer Schrader

I recently saw Dr. Hodges for a hearing exam and she was so helpful and kind. I can't wait to get my new hearing aids in!

don muray

The whole apt for my 15 yr old son was amazing. In/out in less than 45 mins starting w/ Amanda at the front desk who helped facilitate initial paperwork easily and quickly...2 THUMBS UP. Made the eye doctor hassle a pleasure for my son. We'll be COMING BACK.

Mike Callahan

Paloma was great. Handled everything very professional and fast. Can't say enough about her or Dr El-Jabali.

Donna McGowan

Had my first visit for an eye problem at the South Tampa location today. What a wonderful experience. Everyone was friendly, professional, knowledgeable, encouraging and explained every phase and test. I highly recommend Newsom Eye of South Tampa.

cortney bates

1 star is to much. I have been here for 1 hr 45 min and still have yet to see a Dr. It's been like 45 min since my daughter's eyes were dilated and we are still waiting

S Brill

Friendly staff --no long wait --Dr. Petit very professional and willing to answer questions

Qualia Turner

Newsom eye is a wonderful eye clinic. I came in there due to eye pain and they had me seen immediately. I barely had to wait, the longest part of the process was filling out paperwork which only took about five minutes. I was brought back very fast by one nurse who did a very thorough check up and asked about my complaints. Then I was put into a room to wait for the doctor. About a minute later, another nurse named Brittany came in and introduced herself, asked how I was, cleaned all the equipment in front of me, then let me know the doctor would be in to see me in a few minutes, he just had to look at my chart. After a couple of minutes, Dr. Petit and his assistant Brittany came in to do the exam. Both of them were extremely pleasant and professional, a great duo of healthcare professionals. After Dr. Petit left, his assistant made sure I had everything I needed and gave me my first dose of medicine. She was kind enough to give me her email in case there were any issues with my prescriptions. Cvs told me they were on back order so I called Brittany and she got right on it & stayed in contact with me to make sure I got my meds. Dr. Petit also made a follow up call to me a couple of days later to see how I was feeling, which I thought was amazing, not many doctors do that. All and all, they went above and beyond to make sure my needs were met. I then came back about a week and a half later for a full eye exam to get glasses and again, had a wonderful experience from beginning to end. These people truly care about their patients and it shows! Thank you again Newsom Eye, Dr. Petit, and Brittany.

Carmen Brache

I highly recommend Newsome Eyes South Tampa. Staff is very nice and professional specially the assistant Kimberly who treat patient in courtesy above and beyond.

Linda shaw-williams

Yolanda at this location was extremely helpful to me and made my experience today great!

CA Medic 436

I love the staff! Awesome doctors, perfect staff. I just had my R eye cataract surgically one, in Carrollwood. Both Tampa offices are PHENOMINAL!!! If you do surgery, these doctors and staff are IT!!!!

Jomon Kulappurackal

Kristi Akans

I had a great exam and wanted lasik. The technology is amazing and one of the most up to date I've offices I've been to! I can't wait for Dr. Newsom to do my lasik!

Tim McGaughey

Update: Reviews have been so bad that employees and their relatives (Hi Kristi and Garett!) now write fake 5 star reviews! Previos comments: Poorly run. Since acquired, my visits have taken 2+ hours. Other customers in the lobby report similar (or worse) experience. The staff is always complaining about the processes and systems. Nobody can find records. My bills have been wrong, and prices have gone up. Newsom has had plenty of time to figure out how to run an office and clearly doesn't care about their patients' time enough to make it work. I will be finding someplace better and you should too.

kayphia syblies

The staff and doctors at newsome eye south tampa and they are the BEST

Jon Economou

I highly recommend Newsom Eye to anyone looking for a new eye clinic in the South Tampa or Carrolwood area. Dr. Grimm is amazing at what she does and puts the Patients needs first, you can see her passion for what she does and makes you feel comfortable throughout any process in the clinic, she is awesome! Her staff and assistant Reese is extremely caring and knowledgeable and guides you through every process with ease. Very friendly and comfortable atmosphere!

Robert Carpenter

My experiences with Newsome Eye South has always been positive, but particular note should be a Technician named Paloma is is always up beat, the absolute best

DR KATHERINE DAVIS

I AM ALWAYS SO BLESSED TO SEE GINA WHEN I COME INTO THE OFFICE!!! SHE MAKES ME FEEL SO VERY SPECIAL. HER ATTITUDE IS SO POSITIVE AND UPBEAT . GINA IS KIND, PATIENT AND THOUGHTFUL . I ALWAYS MAKE EARLY APPOINTMENTS AND GINA SET THE TONE FOR THE REST OF MY DAY!!! SHE IS DEFINITELY AN ASSET TO THE SOUTH TAMPA OFFICE.

Austin Spradlin

Ive heard a lot about this office since i've lived in Tampa my whole life. It was time to get an eye exam and I called to make an apt and to ask if my insurance was in their network... The apt went well and everything was great, aside from the rude morning front desk staff. I was hit with a bill at the end that was over 200$ for a normal eye exam, which is way more than what insurance covers. So I guess I'm not in their network, but was told otherwise. They said I would receive everything in the mail. Fast forward to now, and I'm receiving a call from collections. After talking to the collections office I called Newsom Eye's billing department. The woman I talked to was just as rude as the person who checked me in the day I went in for my apt. After realizing they had the wrong apartment number for my address, she said "sorry we sent you mail and it was never returned so you'll just stay in collections."

Brenda Siegle

Awesome experience. Great doctor and staff is very professional. The technology is the best I've ever experienced. I highly recommend.

Tashi Wangmo

Although it nearly took me two hours before I was done getting my eye examined, (I think they only had one glaucoma specialist)all staff were nice and efficient, especially Priscilla in the front desk was super helpful!

Stephen Sukel

Great work. Long wait, if you make an appointment here bring yourself lunch and take the day off.

Chris Ingram

Terrible. Billing department is completely incompetent. They are potentially running a scam. They initially didn't take our insurance, though they took all our insurance info even though we paid out of pocket. Upon follow-up with our insurance co. to seek reimbursement, we discovered Newsome had been paid by our insurance co. (and, remember, had ALSO taken our money for full amount weeks earlier). Three months later, they never informed us of this, or returned our money. My wife called and they said we had a "credit." Thanks but no thanks! Give us our money. We will never be coming back to this place which is run by people who don't have good/fair/ethical business practices. Total scumbags! Get your eyes checked somewhere else where you won't be ripped off by unethical business practices.

Joseph Kuss

I have been a patient for several years. I continue to be a patient because of the extraordinary level of service by all of the employees. Special kudos to Sam, Priscilla, Michelle, Janelle, and of course, Dr. Petit. Thank you for your excellent customer service!

G Perez

Paloma and Dr. Garruto were awesome!

Erica Bader

Priscilla, was extremely helpful with a very smooth check in. The office was welcoming, clean and friendly. Great experience.

Rodney Garris

Dr Garruto and staff are like family! I love this place. Always a great Experience.

Harleyman Tampa

I was a patient of Dr. Green the audiologist at Newsome Eyes south Tampa location, and spent nearly $6,000 on hearing aids, from my own pocket. She left in May, and I was never even notified that she left and, isn't being replaced. I found out by calling after I didn't hear about an expected folowup from Dr. Green. I would think it a courtesy to at least email patients or drop a form letter notice in the mail. Very unprofessional. I won't be using this business for future eye surgery down the road.

D Gadson

I highly recommend Newsom eye, The staff was amazing Mrs Priscilla greeted my 5 year old grand-daughter with kindness also my family and I could pick a better place. I would highly recommend this staff and doctors Thank you for doing a out standing job, with courteous and prompt. Mrs. CP

Jennifer Smith

Just great!!

Debra Andrade

I had a bad experience with the front office about 2 years ago and went to another Dr. They were rude and unfriendly. I have now come back to Newsome Eye and Amanda and Priscilla were just wonderful!! Very attentive, professional and friendly. They are a breath of fresh air and make you feel so welcome and with a smile!!!! Thank you girls!!!!! I also want to share that Dr. Petit is just wonderful!! He makes you feel very comfortable and takes the time to explain what he is doing and answer your questions. Alex and Nevi work side by side with Dr. Petit and are just as wonderful!! Michelle completes the whole package. I can't say enough that I am so happy to be back at Newsome Eye in South Tampa!!

Tina Piboolnuruk

Even one star is too many stars for this place! It takes hours to actually be seeing by the doctor. It doesn't matter what time your appointment is, really! I had 2 appointments scheduled for my kids, both were cancelled for no reason. No one there was able to explain why. People in the waiting room have all been there for at least an hour and it was a zoo! After spending an hour at the counter, I am taking my business elsewhere. This place was recently purchased by Newsome Eyes. If you think change is good, think again. Customer service has NOT improved. If you are thinking about making an appointment here, take my advice: DO NOT DO IT! Take your business somewhere else!

Ivy is the Sweetest ever very nice place everyone here is wonderful

zahraa fawzi

Garett Siegle

The employees are very hepful and I had a good exam. I was also educated on my eye issues that I've always heard of, but no on has ever explained.

Eric Scott

The staff here is very friendly

Kevin Melendez

Loved my experience here. Lifetime patient!!

Kathleen Rios

Very professional office.

rubin saigal

A wonderful experience to be treated at Newsom eye. I have nothing but praise for staff and Dr. Newsom.

Hunter Hamrick

Won't see me going back to Newsom Eye. I guess I'll have to cut my losses at $398 for 2 pairs of contacts I paid for and never received, despite having receipt and payment info. The physician was fine...but it would seem the clerical staff or optical department are inept. Worst experience I've ever had....a waste of time and money. .

Jenny Parker

Office is run VERY poorly, think twice before coming here. Dr. is nice but didn't call when said he would. After I get contacts figured out, I won't be back.

Pauline Wacaser

Horrible, Unprofessional, Run!!!

Michelle Champagne

Took my 17 year old daughter to Newsom Eye today and could not have asked for a better experience!! Dr. Garruto and his assistant Paloma were amazing! They addressed our reason for the visit in a very competent and professional manner...but the best part was how personable they both were with my daughter! Dr. Garruto took a few moments out of his demanding schedule to answer my soon-to-be college student’s questions about his major and path during his college years. This duo went above and beyond today! I highly recommend them!!!

Terry B

Came here for a second opinion and ultimately laser eye surgery. Dr Srivastava was wonderful! From the consultation to the eye surgery itself. Great bedside manner - explained everything, took her time answering questions and very thorough. However, the support staff is another story. Had one eye done and the second eye 2 weeks later. Someone had charted the first procedure for the wrong eye and when I went in for the second eye they were ready to do the same eye twice. On the 2nd eye - Tech upstairs put a picture over my eye (indicates which procedure you are having) and put a different pic than I had the first time. I questioned it and was told the pictures were only for which eye and not procedure specific. Thankfully the tech in the surgery area realized the issue and changed the picture before I saw the doc for the laser procedure. Then at final follow up appointment they didn't have my paper chart. Nowhere to be found. Glad the procedures went well and didn't have any notes of importance the doc might need to see on follow-up! Order of which eye was done first/second was still wrong in computer. Then at checkout of follow-up I was billed my co-pay after being told prior that it was included in what I paid upfront. Problem is that they only have a 10 day window for surgery follow-up and my procedure mandates a 2 week waiting period so not included in the initial amount paid. Seems as if procedure would have a unique follow up period vs 10 day across the board. Overall, happy with Dr. S, but feel like the support staff either needs more training or better leadership.

Jane Mcilvaine

Dr. Grimm was very thorough and competent. I had a terrific experience and would highly recommend her.

Jonathan Economou

As a new resident in the south Tampa community, I was in need of a local eye clinic and I found newsom eye to be relatively close to my house. Needless to say my first couple of visits have been very unfortunate and unorganized. Extremely long visits on top of an unorganized staff. Every staff member you talk to tells you something completely different from the other staff member. Not only is their miscommunication but a LOT of lack of communication. Nobody even called me to tell me my Contact lenses were ready, I had to call to find out my self, of course they tell me they will call me back yet nobody calls back, making me call back to figure out what’s going on. I can imagine the doctors are excellent at what they do, but an office staff is crucial to making the visits efficient and convenient for the customer. This was the opposite of my first two visits. Every time I call I can’t get a hold of the office at all and than end up talking to someone new who is unaware of what is going on, which leads to being on hold for 20 minutes. Really disappointed. Choose your eye doctors wisely.

Dylan Carissimo

After years of dealing with contacts and glasses, it was time for me to get Lasik. I researched doctors all over Florida and didn't find anyone I liked UNTIL I discovered Dr. Newsom. When I heard about Dr. Newsom and Newsom eye, I knew found the person I could trust with my eyes with. The entire Lasik experience was first class. The day after surgery I had better vision than I ever did with contacts or glasses. Thank you Dr. Newsom. You are truly the best at what you do.

Paula M

Very pleased with the service I received for both my office visit and eye glass purchase. I saw Dr. Grimm and her Technician, Reese. Reese was awesome, making me feel at ease and explaining the process. Dr. Grimm was very thorough and knowledgeable. I am a happy Newsom Eye patient!

Lauren Rodriguez

Very friendly and nice staff and they explain everything to you step by step. Lissette was great and made the the whole process much easier!:)

Robert Webb

DO NOT GO HERE! My daughter had what we thought was a stye on her eye, DR. Guggino diagnosed it as a chalazion, which was correct. My issue stems from the recommend treatment. He told my wife and I to hold down our two year old daughter and rub the chalazion with a q tip with medicine he prescribed on it in hopes that it would rupture. If this didn't work he was recommending surgery! You can imagine how hard it was to restrain our daughter to do this. When we had followed his direction for a month and saw NO improvement we went to Tampa Eye Clinic for a second opinion. When the doctor heard what we were doing he looked at us as though we had lost our minds! He recommended warm compresses and a prescription eye drop. Guggino is a QUACK! Do yourself a favor and go to Tampa eye clinic.

Tania Horst

I've been going to Newsom Eye for three years now. Everyone has always been professional and incredibly friendly. Priscilla up front and Michelle B. in the back are wonderful. I'd highly recommend going to Newsom Eye!

Kurtis Kelly

Perfect experience! People were curteous, doctor was prompt and courteous. Dr. Do Jabali and Paloma were great. Recommend Newsom Eyes to everyone!!

Ann Andersen

I was very nervous, the very first person at the reception desk was so nice that I started to relax. Paloma took me back and did all the pre work up and she was so reassuring and calm, funny and just NICE, that by the time I saw Dr.S I was all good. Dr.S answered all my questions no matter how insignificant they may have been to someone else. Then I met with Arlene and she again was reassuring and knowledgeable about everything I asked. The atmosphere of the entire office was relaxed enough so that you felt free to ask questions and be confident in the procedure and Medical staff. This was the best Medical appointment I have ever had, Physicians on all medical levels should model their offices/staff after this office.

Roshal Robince

the worst! people are so rude

Laura Smith

This Eye clinic is awesome!! I hardly waited for my appointment and Dr. Newsom is so handsome and funny!!! All of the staff was friendly and knew what they were doing. I won't go anywhere else!

Mrs. Domi

I’ve been coming to Newsomeye for 2 Years now. The ONLY eye doctor I’ll visit in Florida. Today Priscilla at the front desk took care of my insurance information & getting me checked in. Priscilla performed excellent customer service, fast service, very friendly and very knowledgeable. When your the face of the company and you go over and beyond for your patients, it means a lot. Thank you

Glam Nea

Yolanda, Gina and Arlene are the best staff members to work with at Newsome eye. Professional and conscientious and timely of requests and assistance. Much appreciated! R.E. South tampa patient

Cindy Pelley

Jim Hunter

Great place for total eye care! My wife and I have been going here for many years. Dr. Petit is awesome and their supporting case Gina & Nevi (and others) make you feel at home too. Their optical center is where we get our glasses and Sam and crew help us pick and fit the right glasses for our needs every time.

Crystal Mcintyre

Very caring staff and advanced technology!! I love my "Newsom Eyes"!!

BERK GUMUS

Randy Kennedy

All of these negative reviews are total malarkey!!! I had a great experience at Newsom Eye and Dr. Alejandro gave me the best diabetic eye exam I've ever had!

lee anne wojtkowski

Mary Beth Buskey

I was Leary after reading reviews to go here. The office is excellent and they were able to squeeze me as a new patient. They also helped me make sure I had the eye med I needed to start right away . Quick call backs and professionalism I am now a forever patient to Newsome eye.

Lisa Pantaline

The staff at The South Tampa office is friendly and helpful! I am happy I have NEWSOM eyes!

Roberta Richmond

Dr.Faynberg at the Newsome Eye Center on Swan is the best of the best. On Thursday I thought that I had a scratch on my eye. The pain level was severe and I knew I needed to see a doctor as soon as possible. The Newsome Eye Center took me in right away. They gave me drops for pain and introduced me to Dr.Faynberg..She diagnosed the problem as Herpes Simplex Keratitis Corneal Ulcer which can be very painful. ,She gave me eye ointment to use as well as let me know which pharmacy might have the medicine I needed. Since I was out of town, she suggested that I see my regular doctor the next day. I was able to see my doctor the next day. I was impressed that Dr, Faynberg called me 24 hours later to see how I was doing, check my pain level and ask how I was feeling.

Ariel Fisher

I was in the office with my mom last week and the staff is amazing. Dr.Petit, Nevi, and Lissete were amazing. Thank you so much for taking care of my mom.

Joshua Ladd

Best Doctors and Staff!!! Very friendly and helpful...

Suzanne Ensmann

Awesome! Great people! Dr Petite, Alena, Nevi & Pricilla Rock!

david gorden

Priscilla and Sherri that work in optical at the south tampa / Swann location were fabulous and a pleasure to deal with. Every time I come in for my appointment in-the last three years Sherri has been the most pleasant person to deal with. Helped me Choose a pair of glasses and will spend the time you need to get a pair you like. She is as Patient as they come. Priscilla has a great sense of humor and was proficient at her job and made my visit today great. I would recommend this eye doctor and his staff if you are looking for a professional group of people to deal with. David

Steve Solano

Everyone was very helpful and professional. Special thanks to Lissette, Nevi and Paloma as well as the ladies at the front desk. Great job!
