The amount of time the doctors and the assistant spent with me was truly exceptional. I left my visit armed with real solutions to my problem and knowledge of how to proceed.. I am truly grateful for the knowledge and expertise they shared with me and the amount of care shown.

The appointment felt off as if it was an interrogation. It felt like my current diagnoses were being questioned which was not the intent of the visit.

It was extremely frustrating to me that Dr Seay did not take the time to review my chart before coming in, especially after having waited so long for her to come in the room. she showed very little concern and was not personable at all. She did not know anything about my case.

Everyone was very friendly except Dr Seay. The nurse that took me back to the room, the intern that came in were exceptional. The doctor came in for a brief visit and said nice to meet you. She didn't introduce herself or acknowledge me by name. she seemed very cold. I had just been through a horrific accident and she didn't acknowledge that at all or even seem to care. she spoke mostly to to the intern did her quick exam. Not a doctor who I feel comfortable with or even feel like she cared. No bedside manner.

Not a very good experience. The doctor didn't spend much time with me and didn't seem especially interested in any of my problems.......nor did she encourage me or imply that I may get a little better with exercise and/or physical therapy. She did recommend PT. She didn't ask about my health history form (which she never saw).

The resident doctor working under Dr. Sea did a phenomenal job. Not only did she review his history prior to asking questions, she had a great bedside manner and was concerned about his comfort in the exam. This is a great compliment considering how many doctors we see due to his chronic migraines.

I had been to several specialists about my condition who refused or couldnt treat me. My current doctor was not completely treating me or listening to me. I was a hot mess and Dr Seay got me in asap and jumped into action to get my condition under control and save my vision. She also changed my medication. The medicine I was on was making me so sick and I was so miserable, I was suicidal. Dr Seay saved my life and gave me my life back.

As this was my first encounter with Dr. Seay I found it disconcerting that upon entering the room she directed all of her questions to the PA regarding the reason for my appointment, what led to the episodes and the testing of the eyes thus far. I felt that that the PA was far too removed from the emotional aspect of the experiences and left out some crucial and descriptive information that was involved during the episodes of double vision and gradual blindness. It wasn't until after much of the testing had been completed that she addressed me with results and explanation of the various tests with a recommendation for a MRI and CatScan at my own healthcare center. Perhaps this is her style but I am accustomed to being more engaged and am highly pro-active in my own healthcare. Now that I have seen her "style" with patients I will know what to expect in the future as I do value her as a trustworthy physician and specialist in her chosen field. And more importantly for relieving some of the incredible stress that I had been under not knowing the cause of the episodes of the eyes. I still don't know and the stress is still there but at least I had a specialist reassure me that my eyes were not the source of the problem. So onward we go.

Dr. Seay is very knowledgeable. She isn't very talkative, which is fine, but sometimes it feels like an interrogation instead of an appointment. I like how direct she is on what's going on with you.

this was a second opinion and clarification visit, so we were not making specific decisions about proposed treatment, although there was mention of serious treatment options if the condition does not go away. Dr. Seay verified what I had previously been told, that I must wait 3 months to a year before considering anything else. There are no neuro ophthalmologists where I live, so this visit was very important for me.

I was very impressed with Dr. Seay. She's all about business, but understood my concerns and addressed them fully. She had high expectations of her student, showed respect to get, and was great at educating rather than to talk down. At first she appeared intense and quiet. But she was simply taking out all in, evaluating internally, accepting of input and questions, touching on other variables that may be addressed later on, and thoroughly answering questions i had. I wad impressed with her!

the moment "Dr. Meagan" walked in, she asked where we lived in preperation to tell us she wasn't the doctor we should be seeing. Salt eye crystals had been forming and we were expecting her to help urgently with getting these removed as they were feeling like glass cutting through the eye. she lacked basic empathy and compassion and was just trying to send us on our way. had to go to the emergency room afterwards.
