RONALD D. ZUBA, OD - PALMETTO EYE CARE REVIEWS
I appreciate Dr. Zuba taking his time with me and doing a thorough job of explaining everything about my eye health so that I can understand it. I've been going to his practice for two years now. I just had my annual appt in June of this year. The ladies up front are very friendly as well.
Recently had my eye exam with Dr. Zuba to order some more contacts. He is very knowledgeably and professional! He is also down to earth and very personable! I always enjoy my visit at Palmetto Eye Care! The staff there are amazing as well.
Everyone in the office is super friendly. I was able to book my appointment online which was very easy and convenient. I love that it’s a smaller office, it’s more laid back and has a more family friendly feeling when you visit. Dr. Zuba was very knowledgeable and just so easy to talk to.

JOHN MASON, OD - MASON FAMILY VISION REVIEWS
This practice is very professional and competent from the staff, the optometrists--Dr. John Mason and Dr. Katie Mason-- to the opticians. I have been a patient of Dr. John for over 20 years. And, I have seen Dr. Katie as well. They are very detailed in explaining the exams and results. What also distinguishes their practice is that they stay up-to-date on new technologies and upgrade their equipment accordingly. They also treat both adults and children, so your entire family can be treated in the same practice. Their office is modern and attractive with lots of windows at the front of the building allowing for natural light. They are conveniently located in a standalone office building in northeast Columbia.
My husband and I have been patients for 15+ years and the care from Dr. John has always been stellar. If I had any recommendation for improvement it would be their text notifications of cancellation. Both my husband and I have responded quickly to those texts only to be told the appt is no longer available. Today I responded literally within 5 seconds of the text hitting my phone, called in, was given the spot & *confirmed* it with the desk, only to be called back & told the appt was already taken. If the person on the desk could get the appt in the system, how was it already taken? It's disappointing, and I hope the practice will improve their processes with this.
Dr. John Mason is wonderful!! He's thorough and attentive to his patients. Highly recommend him to anyone.

KRISTY HEATH, OD - APEX EYE CARE REVIEWS
My experience today was awesome! Dr Heath is new for me and she went above my expectations to make me feel comfortable. Especially when it came time for my fittings for contacts. Kalia was great with the customer service upon entry. Chris the optician was fabulous. You have to come in and let the entire staff service you. Chris will have me Gucci down by end of Summer with my new glasses. Pics to come soon! Thanks Apex eye are you rock.
The new eye doctor, Dr. Heath saw my daughter recently and she was great! She is very calming, efficient and thorough, which was perfect since it was my daughter's first eye exam. The other staff in the office are friendly and professional. I never have to wait long to be seen. I definitely recommend!
This was my first appointment with Dr. Heath and I really liked her. She answered my questions, made suggestions and I could tell she cared. The office staff was friendly, prepared for my visit (my records and benefits) and welcoming. I look forward to next year’s visit.
