My wife and I both had our vision corrected with Dr. Pankhurst and his modern LASIK procedure. I had high expectations going into the procedure and am happy to say the high expectations were exceeded on every level. From the minute you walk in the door you are greeted by an extremely welcoming and service oriented staff. From the consultation appointment to the the one month post op appointment, the experience was amazing. Thank you Dr. Parkurst and Parkhurst NuVision for providing our freedom from placing plastic in my eyes each morning and/or glasses!
