Dr. Russ Van Norman

I have never had a better overall experience with any health provider and I've worked in the healthcare industry since 1975. The skill and compassion that Dr. Van Norman treats each of his patients is beyond any of my expectations. I had cataract surgery on both eyes and could see clearly without glasses or contacts for the first time in my life. No pain, no fuss it was a perfect experience start to finish. Not gonna lie, I was anxious because of floater problems I had with one eye that caused me to postpone surgery for a few months. But Dr. Van Norman was very attentive and careful, approving my surgery only when he was confident of the outcome. But it is not just his skill that I admire, it is the management of his practice. I actually look forward to my appointments because of the welcoming atmosphere in his office. I have never seen a happier staff or a more efficient practice in my life and I've seen a lot from the inside/out. These folks know what they are doing and they are doing the best job of it I have ever seen or experienced. I had no ties to this practice, just researched and ended up choosing him and I am so very very glad I did. Seriously make you life easier, if you need to see an Ophthalmologist, Van Norman is the one you want!

Dr. VanNorman is great and the whole staff there are wonderful if you have questions they don't make you feel bad for calling and asking great people at this facility I recommend the Dr to anyone needing eye surgery

Dr. Van Norman and his staff are the helpful and friendly. After my cataract surgery my life has truly changed for the better and it is all because of Dr. Van Norman. My surgery was painless and was very fast. At the office you never feel rushed through your appointment and he explaines everything in a way that you can understand. I think he's the best.

This office is amazing. I have been seeing another ophthalmologist for years and decided to get a second opinion. On the morning of my appointment with Dr Van Norman, I was having issues with being able to arrive on time. I called the office and explained that I was unable to make my appointment time, the front office staff was so very accommodating and rescheduled me for later in the day. When I arrived and was called back, every staff interaction was very friendly and professional. Dr Van Norman took extra time to explain my eye issue thoroughly and went over my options. I am very impressed with the level of care that I received and will definitely remain at this practice!

Dr Van Norman is awesome!!! He is so caring and easy to talk to and truly goes above and beyond to take care of his patients.

Absolutely one of the best Doctors I have ever had! He Went above and beyond! Everyone in his office is amazing! Best experience I have had with any doctor/office in Shreveport. Thank you Dr. Van Norman !!!
