Vanderbilt Eye Institute: Louise Ann Mawn, MD

Ms. Mawn performed a surgery on me in 2004 and choosing her was one of the worst decisions of my life. I have spent the past two decades trying to undo the damage that resulted from that procedure. I met with two other ocularplastic surgeons soon after my procedure and they were both really surprised she ever recommended it based on my history. I was very young at the time and really trusted Vanderbilt since I had been going to them since I was a child. My advice to anyone considering her is to get multiple opinions before moving forward. Not doing this cost me thousands and impacted my self image.

Dr Stephen Kim did a great job removing the scar tissue from the retina in my right eye. I was going blind in that eye. Dr Podoll did a great job removing my cataract in left eye. With the implant I see 20/20. Am grateful for both doctors!

Dr. Louise Mawn performed my husband's Frontalis Sling surgery. He has a neuromuscular disease (OPMD) that causes droopy eyelids. Dr. Mawn and her assistants did a fabulous job! She also removed a blueberry-sized cyst from my left eye on an emergency basis. A very tricky surgery that could've gone very wrong in less skilled hands. Saved my eye and my sight!
