Where exactly do I go in Athens?
Call (800) 500-4667 and we will give you the address and directions when we book your appointment.
How often is a doctor in Athens?
Clinic days vary. Call (800) 500-4667 and we will tell you when a doctor is next in town.
Do you serve Etowah, Niota and Sweetwater?
Yes. Athens is central to McMinn County, and we regularly see patients from Etowah, Niota, Englewood, Riceville and Sweetwater.
Is this closer than driving to Chattanooga or Knoxville?
For most of McMinn County, yes. Athens sits roughly midway between Chattanooga and Knoxville, so a local clinic removes an hour of driving in either direction for routine and follow-up care.

Evaluation and follow-up can happen in Athens, with surgery arranged through our Lenoir City clinic about forty minutes north. Your records move with you between offices.
Do you accept insurance?
Yes. We accept most major medical and vision plans. Coverage varies considerably from plan to plan — particularly between medical insurance, which covers treatment of eye conditions, and vision plans, which cover routine exams and eyewear. Call the office at (800) 500-4667 before your visit and we will verify your specific benefits.
