“I chose Whitten Laser Eye because I would not trust my eyes to anyone but the best! Dr. Whitten is a
pioneer in the field with an excellent reputation. I knew that he performed hundreds (maybe more) of
successful procedures and that sport celebrities trusted their eyes to Whitten Laser Eye. They took the
time, both before and after my procedure, to answer my questions and to put me at ease. Because of
the value they place on their patients, I knew what to expect all the way through the entire experience. I
couldn’t have hoped for better bedside manner and such great results.”

“I gave up my eyeglasses and contact lenses completely. I was amazed that the evening after my
procedure I was able to read the channels on my cable TV box. Within a few days I played golf, without
glasses, and was able to see the ball better than I had in a decade. I enjoy excellent vision, even at night
when driving. I can read the time on the clock radio, watch the flight of my golf ball off of the tee box
and read beltway signs from hundreds of yards away. I happily donated my glasses and threw away my
contacts! Without reservation I recommended Whitten Laser Eye to my family and friends. I couldn’t
imagine trusting my eyes to anyone else.”

“Dr. Whitten has done a lot of successful eye surgery, and has a good reputation as a personable M.D. His confidence throughout the experience helped assure me that this was the right thing to do. Because of this surgery, I only need to use reading glasses for small, printed material. Otherwise, I do not need any type of external corrective eye care. This procedure has left me free to enjoy any and all types of activities with perfect vision. Now, I enjoy all types of sports in any kind of weather with no more fogged up glasses. Distance viewing of nature, wildlife, and sporting events has become more clear and less distorted. It is easier to use field glasses, spotting scopes and cameras. Driving a car on long trips creates less eye strain, especially at night. There is less glare to deal with since there are no corrective eye lenses needed. Peripheral vision has improved enhancing that safety factor while driving. I do not know why I didn’t have this done earlier. As dependable as this procedure is currently, everyone should at least consider having it done. The last five years have been the best because of my carefree eye care.”

“I wanted the best! If Tiger Woods and other athletes trusted Dr. Whitten, I knew I could. It tremendously corrected my distance vision and with monovision correction I can read without reading glasses. There’s no more hassle with contact lenses and glasses and no more irritated eyes from contact lenses.”

“I’m enjoying golf, yoga and walking more since I’ve had LASIK. It was great through pre- and post-op care. The procedure was incredibly fast, and I was driving the next day.”

“When my eyes started going bad, I did not have to look far for the perfect eye surgeon. My husband had surgery with Dr. Whitten 13 years ago, and his eye sight is still 20/20. Doc has the experience along with professionalism to make my decision an easy one. I have the freedom to see without glasses! Before, my eyes would be tired and strained by the end of the day. Driving was difficult and now it’s a breeze! I also enjoy golf and reading more. I would highly recommend Dr. Whitten!”

“My Dad’s the BEST! Everyone was amazing from start to finish. I was very nervous, and everyone who works with Dr. Whitten is not only calm, but incredibly attentive and caring. I have to say, I was really impressed with my Dad. He was so calm from the moment I walked into the building- and he was going to do surgery on his DAUGHTER!?! As I laid down for the procedure, he verbally walked me through moment to moment and was so encouraging at the same time. All I had to do was lie there, but when I got up, I left feeling like I had done good work. Go Dad! And everyone at Whitten Laser Eye! I can do anything without glasses or contacts… including acting! I enjoy acting, watching movies and driving more now. It has been five years since I had the surgery, and my eyesight is STILL perfect!”

“Through my research, I found Dr. Whitten to be the most experienced professional eye surgeon. In 1997, I could see the big “E” on the eye chart. After a quick, painless surgery by Dr. Whitten, I achieved 20/20 vision. Thirteen years later, I still maintain that perfect vision! I am enjoying life in general as I’m able to see clearly. My eyes are not tired anymore. I enjoy golf, fishing and driving more. The ability to get rid of my contact lenses (especially during allergy season) was definitely a bonus!”

“I chose Whitten Laser Eye as I am a friend of Dr. Whitten’s daughter, Bayla, giving me complete confidence in the procedure. They corrected my eyesight whilst making me feel at ease and completely reassured throughout the procedure and during the aftercare. “

“I am very much enjoying not having to wear contact lenses every day. I went traveling after the surgery without the worry of dust from the desert getting in my contacts or having to put my contacts in and out on overnight flights and train journeys. I hope to do more of this in the future. I also enjoy swimming more without the worry of getting water on my lenses. I am very grateful to Dr. Whitten for everything he has done for me. Thank you.”

“Dr. Whitten is my father, and I knew as a parent that he would not perform surgery on his child if he did not think himself to be fully capable and the best. I knew he was the best and would have trusted no one else. He has been a part of LASIK surgery since the beginning- helping to pioneer the process.”

“Whitten Laser Eye gave me all of the information I needed to help me feel calm and knowledgeable about the procedure. I never wondered what would happen next. Dr. Whitten also spoke calmly the entire time, telling me what he was doing next and what I could expect to see and feel. This was the BEST choice I have made in my life and would do it 10 times over if I had to. I can now go to sleep when I’m tired and not have to re-wake myself to take out my contacts. I can roll over in the morning and see the clock. I can wear sunglasses of any style. My eyes don’t feel dry and exhausted by the end of the day. I don’t have to worry about my contacts falling out or tearing. No more buying contact solution or carrying my lens case with me when I travel.”

“Now that I’ve had LASIK, I can swim AND open my eyes in the water AND see while doing it. I can watch TV and movies comfortable without my eyes getting tired. Also, I can be outside without worrying that my eyes will dry out in the wind or that something will fly in my eye and irritate my contacts.”

“I truly believe Dr. Whitten to be the best doctor performing LASIK today. I am not biased because I am his daughter. In fact, I feel I hold him to a higher standard because he is my father. He is unlike any doctor I know. He does not take risks with your health. If you are not a good candidate, he will not do your surgery. He is not in it for the money. He loves helping people and isn’t going to gamble your eye sight for an extra buck. I am extremely squeamish when it comes to “surgeries,” and I can confidently say that this was the easiest procedure I have ever undergone. I would even do it again if my eyes worsened. I had LASIK five years ago and still see 20/20.”

“Dr. Whitten performed LASIK procedures on several of my friends and my mother. All, including myself, had an amazing experience. I was extremely anxious going into the procedure, but Dr. Whitten made it seem like a walk in the park.”

“For the first time in my life I have 20/20 vision. Simple experiences, such as being able to see the clock in the middle of the night, changed my entire life’s perspective. The greatest benefit is that I am no longer slowed down by the constant maintenance of glasses and contacts. I will enjoy riding roller coasters, fitness activities and nights out with my friends more now. Friends, family and even other doctors told me Dr. Whitten was the best, and after my experience I wholeheartedly agree!”

“I wanted to take the time to thank you for my LASIK surgery performed in 2003. Being in the military requires me to work in all types of environments. I recently spent time in Afghanistan, where the weather was hot and the environment was very sandy. Through those harsh conditions, I never experienced any problems relating to my vision. In fact, I was able to focus more clearly on the task at hand, since I didn’t have to worry about it. I am very pleased with my vision and with the care and professionalism the doctors and staff of Whitten Laser Eye has provided me.”
