Dr. Severinsky & Dr. Gavin were helpful in communicating with me options to improve my vision which allowed me to make an informed decision on my next step. Which was to try a stronger prescription for my glasses vs going back to wearing contacts to improve my vision.

I recommend Dr Severinsky all the time to people who need contact lenses. He is outstanding. Certainly the best I have ever met in 60 years of dealing with keratoconus. Does this survey recognize medical terms at all.

I HAVE HAD NO BAD EXPERIENCE WHILE AT EMORY EYE CLINIC. EVERYONE HAS BEEN VERY PROFESSIONAL AND HELPFUL.
- 2 out of 5 starsReviewed on 4/27/2026
Doctor did not take the time to listen to my main reason for the visit. He seemed to "already know" what my issues were. Not the best communication- asked about the imaginary of my eyes which is the main reason I chose this specialty lens doctor. He just brushed my question off and did not discuss the imaging results with me at all.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 4/17/2026
I was very impressed with Dr. Severinsky. He was very accommodating in attempting to schedule follow-up visits due to my coming from another state. He also was very thorough in explaining his findings and treatment plan.

Dr. Severinsky, and his staff are outstanding in all of these areas.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 3/24/2025
Severinsky's a hidden gem at Emory. In a clinic full of ophthalmologists, as an optometrist I suspect he doesn't get a lot of respect. Not only does he have knowledge in his field, he's caring, empathetic, and truly concerned about improving his patients' quality of life. He has somewhat of a language barrier, but, then he speaks so many different languages, how can one complain?
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 3/21/2025
The provider understood to a higher degree my problem and seem to be a subject matter expert in this type of treatment and so with all hesitation I would recommend him to others

Primary doctor and his intern spent a lot of time being sure that I was fitted properly for a contact lens. They were not in a rush to see the next patient, and they spent quite a bit of time discussing options going forward.
