Top Ophthalmologists in Dothan
A History of Quality, All-Inclusive Eye Care
We have had the pleasure of bettering vision in the Dothan, Alabama community for almost 40 years! Drs. Marnix Heersink and John Fortin opened Eye Center South in 1980 and quickly expanded to accommodate a wide variety of eye care needs with the latest technology. Our dedication to providing unmatched health care prompted the inclusion of an outpatient surgery and hearing center.
Your Vision. Our Mission.
Situated at the corner of Fortner Street, Eye Center South specializes in the surgical and medical treatment of eye disease. We strive to provide patients with the latest in vision care and continue to focus on cutting edge technology.
