"Everyone I met at McFarland eye care was very nice and knowledgeable. Doctor Gauldin is a wonderful doctor who cares about his patients enough to pray for them if they would like. A doctor that will do that is my kind of doctor. Thank you doctor Gauldin."

"Dr. Gauldin and entire team at McFarland Eye Care were extremely professional, courteous, friendly, efficient and thorough. My first visit as a new patient (new to Arkansas) and they did a full examination, reviewed my concerns and Dr. Gauldin concluded that I needed to see a retinal specialist ….. got me an appointment within an hour with their top guy top retinal surgeon at nearby Baptist Retina Centers who scheduled me for surgery the following morning first thing!!!"
