Patient Testimonials

Dr. Walrath is an amazing doctor. Not only is he friendly and courteous, he also informs you every step of the way. He and his staff are very patient. They understand the anxiety that comes with surgery, and they accommodate you. I went to Dr. Walrath for eye surgery needed due to a rare genetic disease, and he was knowledgeable about it, although I had met with several other doctors who were unaware of the disease. Several of my relatives and family have had similar eye surgery, and I can say with 100% accuracy that they did not have similar results. They did not have the outcome that comes only with a very skilled surgeon that Dr. Walrath can achieve, and in some of their cases, there was almost no change at all in their eyesight or appearance. In my case, the results have been amazing. If you are looking for the best, you have found him. He is Dr Walrath. – Yvonne Pysh

I recently had Dr. Liou perform and upper bleph (eyelid) surgery. I have to say I was petrified by both the procedure and the horror stories of people that look weird as they did not have someone who understands “eyes” perform their surgery. I am one week out and absolutely thrilled. I did this as an “in office” procedure and truly was so easy. His staff is amazing and I was totally at ease as Dr. Liou is renowned for his lid reconstruction. My results are absolutely fabulous and I am extremely happy. If you are considering having this done he really is the best! – LeeAnn Swift

Fantastic surgeon and team. Can’t say enough great things about him. Fixed some longstanding problems related to childhood athletic injuries that were not totally corrected by earlier surgeries. I know it sounds hard to believe, but my vision improved and it resulted in a lower golf score, especially in putting. No hassles, no surprises, except for the great outcome. Really a specialist!

Dr Walrath has a way of putting his patients at ease with humor and confidence. My eye lift surgery was necessary due to experiencing vision problems, so it was covered by Medicare. He, along with his staff, was reassuring and efficient throughout the entire procedure. He put me at ease from the first visit through the 3-month follow-up visit. I highly recommend and confidently trust Dr Walrath. You can, too!

Before deciding on a doctor to perform upper and lower blepharoplasty, I had done so much research. I live in the middle GA area, and my insurance inquired why I would go 2 hours away to get the surgery. This surgery is so important because this is your face (eyes). Dr. Walrath is amazing! I am so happy with the results. I was very nervous, but Dr. Walrath answered all my weird questions that I had even before the surgery date. I would recommend him 100%. When you are getting blepharoplasty, you want to make sure it's a doctor that knows EYES, not just a regular plastic surgeon that might give you a facelift

Dr. Liou is amazing, from the office visit, surgery thru followup! I felt like he totally listened and addressed my concerns. Since I had other pre-existing health issues, he also made sure that my surgery was at a hospital. Even called me from out-of-town to check on me. Such a pleasant, caring individual. My eyes are now open and look perfect! I am so very grateful!

Dr. Walrath performed a blepharoplasty procedure (eyelid excess skin removal) on both eyes for me, and I'm extremely happy with the results. He has a great demeanor and was very happy to explain all of my options and the pros and cons of each. Most importantly, he's an experienced and highly skilled surgeon that consistently produces great outcomes like mine. I was very lucky to be referred to him, and I can personally recommend him unreservedly.

My surgery was in July, 2022 and I am totally satisfied with Dr. Walrath and my experience with Woolfson. Dr. Walrath talked me through my surgery telling me step by step what he was about to do which helped me to stay relaxed during the procedure. I love the results! I highly recommend him!

Dr. Victor Liou is the BEST! He explained every step of my procedure. Going as far as to draw and show me pictures of my surgical procedure. He made sure I knew what to expect and felt comfortable with it. He is the best at what he does, and cares about his patients. What more can you ask for. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

I am thrilled with my experience at Woolfson Eye Institute and especially Dr. Liou. He was very informative at my initial consultation, answered all of my questions, and seemed genuinely interested in my concerns and questions. On the day of surgery he was very reassuring and explained the process in detail. At my one week follow-up visit both he and I were both pleased with my progress. I realize it will still take some time for everything to completely heal, but I am truly excited to see the final results.

As a retired nurse, I've seen a fair number of doctors in my life, some as a nurse some as a patient. First let me say, a doctor is your choice not your insurance companies, yes you have to work within the confines of those accepting your insurance but seek out the best you can. For me Dr Walrath was exactly that.It starts with the efficiency of his office and staff, all of whom are knowledgeable and gets the job done. I never waited more than 5-7 minutes except once and that was because of a language barrier with a patient.Next, Dr. Walrath's knowledge is exceptional and he speaks to you like a person and explains things in detail, no question from you the patient is unacceptable to him. His skills are exceptional and to put the icing on the cake his bedside manner and sense of humor are wonderfulI would absolutely recommend him to my close family and friends. I won't go back....because I won't need to, his work is amazing

I would highly recommend Dr. Walrath and his team for your eye surgery needs. I was very impressed with his knowledge on where he could make adjustments to my upper and lower lids. He was very honest about where he was not sure it would work. He was extremely personable and checked in with me personally before the surgery, and then when I had questions I would contact him and he would call me back in a very short time span. The final product is amazing. I have had people notice from across the room how refreshed I look and really the only change was Dr. Walrath's great work. I have recommended him to everyone who asked. If you want a doctor who really cares about what you are wanting, someone who is personable and interested in your recovery as well, this is your doctor.

Friendly staff. My first appointment was quick, surprisingly. I went in for a chalazion excision and Dr. Walrath was done in 10 minutes. He is funny, comforting and personable. I felt at ease during the whole process.

Dr Walrath is amazing! I had upper bleph with him a couple months ago, love my results! Some key takeaways for me: 1) during the consultation, he was extremely thorough, listened to my concerns and addressed every one of them, confidently. Additionally, he won't sell you a procedure you don't need and he's realistic about attainable results. 2) During the procedure, which was my first under local anesthesia, he was calming and reassuring. I was very nervous and he truly made it a pleasant experience. 3) After the procedure, he called himself the next day to check on me and not only did he allow me to ask any questions, he asked his own to make sure things were going okay. All this to say, I've had other consultations and other cosmetic surgeries, Dr Walrath's bedside manner and level of care and concern is far above the rest. Planning a lower bleph with him next!

Had sagging upper eye lid. Was referred from my optometrist. Upon consultation, Dr. Walrath conducted a test and explained a simple procedure to lift eyelid for correction.Surgery was schedule at my availability. A quick and easy 10 min surgery fixed my problem. Virtually pain free and minimal swelling and bruising. He and his wonderful team made me comfortable and walked me through every step.He called the next day (Saturday) to check on me which brought the patient care to the next level.Highly recommend him as his knowledge and expertise in this field is like no other!

Dr. Walrath is amazing! He repaired my damaged right eye after decades of me believing nothing could be done to restore it to its original condition. He has an encouraging attitude, and a professional confidence that put me completely at ease. Anyone considering corrective surgery to their eyes should absolutely make an appointment to see him!

I cannot recommend Dr. Walrath enough. I had a very intense issue with my eye that required a nuanced, complicated surgery, and Dr. Walrath really came through for me. He has a positive, straight-forward & friendly demeanor that put me at ease every step of the way. His staff at Woolfson Eye Center are always personable and friendly as well. He clearly knows his stuff, and it's no wonder he's an expert in his field.

Dr. Walrath performed eye lid surgery on my Mom and made her very comfortable before surgery and during surgery and performed excellent after care by calling her the day after surgery and his office called the third day after surgery and then he called again a week later and she is very pleased.

Dr Walrath is a highly skilled surgeon and I couldn't be happier with the results of my surgery. The surgery was relatively painless and Dr Walrath called me personally to check how I was feeling the next day. My vision is improved and my eyes look so much better. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr Walrath.

I am so greatful for Dr Walrath. I had been through multiple eye surgeries that continued to leave me with a lazy eye. I would have it fixed again and again (so expensive) but within a few months I was back where I started and so disappointed.Dr Walrath took a completely different approach...He listened to and addresses all of my concerns and I could not be more pleased with the my results.Though I think the other surgeons I had visited were very competant, their specialties were broad and not focused completely on the eyes. Thank you Dr. Walrath for giving me the confidence to pose for picruess again with my family and friends. I had been avoiding cameras for almost 3 years. I now jump at the chance to join in a group photo. Thank you so much for giving me my confidence back!~Sonja
