As a new Optometrist I recommend going to one of the guys in town with a good track and long service record.
Gimble, Mitchell, Demong.... you pay a couple hundred more than with Lasik MD and other "discount" laser centers, but in my opinion it is worth it when dealing with your eyes.
If you are far-sighted, have significant astigmatism or have a high Rx you should use one of the 3 i listed above. If you just have a lowish nearsightedness.... Lasik MD should be ok... but they are a new company and their long-term success rates are not yet established.
Remember you pay for what you get..
The Majority of complications are because of non-compliance with the medications/instructions you are given after the surgery.... so follow the rules and things will work out great.
