"On the eve of my daughter's wedding in September 2006, I stuck the tip of a fern in my eye while attempting to carry it into the church.  I went to Urgent Care in Laurinburg where they flushed out my eye, but by Saturday morning I looked and felt horrible.  There were no local optometrists in town that weekend, and I didn't know how I would make it through the day without some relief.  Luckily, a "friend of a friend" offered to call Family Eye Care of the Carolinas to see if they would help.  Dr. Poindexter agreed to meet me at his office, even though it was Saturday morning and he had a previous engagement out-of-town.  My son drove me to Aberdeen, where Dr. Poindexter examined my eye and put in what he called a "bandaid" contact lens.  As soon as he put that contact in, I felt immediate relief.  He gave me a couple of prescriptions and told me to come back for a check-up on Monday.  Because of Dr. Poindexter's kindness, I was able to see and enjoy my daughter's wedding day.  I will never forget his willingness to put his plans on hold in order to help a stranger in need.  I highly recommend Family Eye Care of the Carolinas to anyone in need of eyecare.  The entire staff is friendly and I know from personal experience that they will go "above and beyond" to help." - J.H.

"To my utter surprise and delight, I received an appointment confirmation in the mail to see Dr. Kara Martin at Pinehurst Rheumatology!  You and your caring staff went ahead and did this for me!  This is way above and beyond and I cannot thank you enough!  You are truly exceptional in a world of mediocrity.  Thank you." - C.G.

"Our experience with this office, and especially with Kara Brittner, has been wonderfully positive.  Recently, we purchased a new pair of lenses for my daughter.  We had previously purchased glasses from another establishment which ended in a bad experience with both the product and service.  We came to Family Eye Care and worked with Kara to correct the problem.  Kara was not only pleasant and friendly, but very knowledgable and made us feel confident about making another purchase.  We received the new lenses today and they are working out beautifully!" - J.C.

"I actually enjoy coming here.  I know that I get the absolute best care possible.  I trust Family Eye Care of the Carolinas completely.  It's fun to come see the doctors and staff and get the best care as well as have fun and kid around at the same time!" - J.M.
