Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Post surgical results.
Had very good results with my eye surgery, everything about what to expect from my procedure was explained in detail and have been very satisfied with the outcome. He always had a positive attitude about what I should expect with the whole procedure and he was right.

The worst staff
This has to be the worst staff and doctor anyone can have, staff makes it impossible for you to get appointment, manager is so selfish and rude and staff talks to you very rude as well. no one gives their face until you have everything figured out as well. they literally do not want to work. i have no idea how they are still in buisness

Very happy with the results of my surgery
I am very happy with the results of my surgery. I developed strabismus six years ago, which got worse with time. A friend of mine recommended doctor Vazquez, and so did my ophthalmologist -whose father had been Dr Vazquez's patient-, so I knew I was in good hands when it was time for surgery. The results could not be better! I am grateful to Dr Vazquez and all his team.

Adult Strabismus
As a child, I had eye muscle surgery and unfortunately developed eye muscle issues again as an adult. Fortunately, I was referred to Dr. Vasquez. My case was difficult due to my previous eye surgery. Dr. Vasquez assured me that he would not perform surgery if he felt that nothing could be done. That eased my worries, and I had muscle surgery on both eyes. The outcome was better than anticipated. I highly recommend Dr. Vasquez. He is patient and listens to any concerns a patient may have. He is very organized and strategic regarding this type of surgery. His staff is professional and friendly—such a positive experience.

Dr. Carlos Vasquez, MD, and West Texas Eye Associates could not be more professional, have a more efficiently run office, nor have a more caring staff. This is a well-oiled machine!! I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Vasquez and West Texas Eye Associates to anyone needing general or specialized eye care.

Since June 2021, Dr. Vasquez has been treating me for an Orbital Inflammatory Pseudotumor behind my left eye. His initial treatment (5 successive slow steroid infusions) immediately reduced the pain in my eye within a week. Since then I am on prednisone which almost eliminated any pain and improved my vision. Lately, Dr. Vasquez diagnosed glaucoma in both eyes and I am scheduled for laser treatment. I am very pleased with my progress and hope it continues to improve.

Dr. Vasquez is an excellent, knowledgable eye doctor. He was recommended to me by my optician, who said he was very good with double vision, a problem that had bothered me for years. He was able to correct it with prism lenses, which have really made a difference. I definitely recommend him.

Thank you for all your support and helping me receive this amazing eye surgery I had extrophia. When I was a child my pupil tended to drift inward I was crossed eyed. My self esteem was low. I am an adult now and my eye was drifting outward. I was always really shy about looking at someone eyes. I am a case worker and help many people. Carlos W. Vazquez helped me and I am so happy I have gained self confidence. He will follow-up with me. The doctor and his staff were so patient with me and explained everything about the surgery. Thank you for being so compassionate and empathetic with your patients.

I worked with Dr. Vazquez for several months to correct a double vision issue that I have dealt with most of my adult life. He was extremely professional and thorough in his exams and assessment of the situation. His surgery was flawless and corrected this long running chronic problem. I will go no where else for eye care now and in the future.
