I traveled to Bradenton from Indiana in November to see Dr. Cathleen McCabe for clear lens extraction to correct my vision. I'm 48 years old and have been wearing glasses full time since I was 3. She was able to exchange my natural lens with a multifocal implant. I no longer need glasses for distance or to read. This has been life changing for me! I could not have had a better experience. Everyone was very professional and kind throughout the entire process and Dr. McCabe is a masterful surgeon. I highly recommend her for he... read more
Dr. Cathleen M McCabe is a fabulous doctor and has given me the miracle of great eyesight that I never thought I would be able to experience. She is truly a miracle worker with a kind heart!
Steer clear of this Dr. performed cataract surgery on me a year ago, I’m now seeing another Dr. who is correcting her mistakes. She made my sight worse than it was prior to seeing her. Absolutely would not recommend this eye surgeon to anyone. Please research and avoid this woman at all cost!
Wish I could give less than 1 star! Totally uncaring, gives very little time or effort. Just wants to get you in, do surgery, get money. Does NOT answer questions. Talks in medical jargon I could not understand though I am a medical professional. Does not inform you of true risks. I would never put myself in her hands.
Business response:
We're very sorry to hear about your experience. This sounds very out of character for Dr. McCabe and not the type of impression that she ever wants to leave. Her patients are extremely important to her, and she always strives to create the best possible patient experience. We could not find your name in our system as a patient, and definitely want to discuss this in more detail. Please contact Cindy at 941-792-3937 ext 2254.
DO NOT GO TO THIS DOCTOR. In 2015, I had this gray occlusion suddenly appear at the bottom of my eye. Eye Associates of SRQ insisted it was a floater. They refused to listen to me when I told them I wasn't. They sent me home for 3 weeks, during which the occlusion worsened. I was scared, and didn't know what to do. I DIDN'T EVEN GET A DIAGNOSIS UNTIL I MOVED OUT OF STATE: NAION/neuroretinitis & 1 eye dr. now is telling me I should have been given steroids right away to halt damage.
I had a cataract in my right eye in the left eye was good. She replace the lens in the right eye and it was a total breeze she is so professional and caring. She had some difficulty getting the correction that was needed due to the fact that I had Lasic surgery previously. I didn't realize that this permanently change the thickness of the cornea. She was able though to give me 2020 vision even with that complication. I was really concerned about the surgery and she made me feel at ease.
Dr. McCabe has treated my eyes for glaucoma and cataracts. She is professional, caring, and excellent at her profession. She never stops educating herself and has titles that as few as 25 doctors in the US have attained. Very informative, she answers any and all questions you ask. Surgery's a breeze with her expertise. She gave me back my eye sight! Is there anything more important than that? This is what she cares about most, Your Eye sight. I would never think of going elsewhere.
Dr McCabe came in after surgery to see my husband who had shingles on his face and going into his eye. If Dr McCabe had not seen him when she did my husband could have lost his vision. Thank you Dr McCabe for caring so much about your patients to see them after hours.
Dr McCabe is a compassionate caring doctor with excellent surgical skills.
