Our Story
For more than 65 years, West Georgia Eye Care Center has been serving the Columbus community with exceptional eye care. Dr. Floyd C. Jarrell, Jr. established the practice in 1951 as a solo practice. The clinic has since grown to the area’s only multispecialty practice with three locations. We are a team of 16 providers: 11 Ophthamologists • a Nurse Practitioner • a Physician Assistant • 2 Optometrists • a Dermatologist and a staff of over 100 professionals.
The ophthalmic subspecialty care represented in our practice includes fellowship trained physicians in cornea and refractive surgery, glaucoma and anterior segment, retina, and oculoplastic and reconstruction surgery.
West Georgia physicians are passionate about the health of your eyes and the success of your surgery. They continue to stay up to date with the latest technology and advancements in eye care. In keeping with their goal of providing superior eye care, the physicians of West Georgia Eye Care Center were the first to perform Clear Lens Exchange and we are the only providers in the region for Corneal Cross Linking. Our North Office also contains a state of the art Laser Vision Center where our ophthalmologists perform all of the LASIK and refractive procedures.
Included on-site at our Main Office is a surgical suite which allows our physicians to perform minor surgical procedures in the office. West Georgia Eye Care Center is conveniently located on Warm Springs Road.
Patients may be seen Monday thru Friday 8:30 am-5:30 pm and 8:30am-1:00 pm on Saturdays.
Physicians rotate these Saturday hours to accommodate patients who may not be able to be seen during traditional working hours.
