Not Your Average Eye Care Center

We wanted to learn a little more about Wesson & Mothershed Eye Center and their fantastic online reputation, so we took a few minutes to talk with one of the four owners, Dr. Dax Eckard.

The first question we had for Dr. Eckard was what is it that sets Wesson & Mothershed Eye Center apart from their competition in Mississippi. Dr. Eckard points to the fact that all of the doctors and staff members are friendly and up to date on the latest technology, ensuring that their patients always get top-notch customer service. He told us that it’s a blend of the technology they use and their customer-oriented staff that make them stand out the most.

We also wanted to know what their mission is at Wesson & Mothershed Eye Center is and how they work to make the world a better place. Dr. Eckard told us that their aim is to provide continued education for both their team and their patients.

Building Success by Asking for Reviews

Dr. Eckard attributes Wesson & Mothershed Eye Center’s strong online reputation to the fact that they ask their patients for reviews and give them the opportunity to do so.
Dr. Eckard added:

“We have really nice reviews from the friendliness of the staff…”

Outside of building a powerful online reputation, Wesson & Mothershed Eye Center has gotten their name out there by working with a company that designs their website, by being active on social media, advertising on Facebook and running promotions. Community involvement is also huge for Wesson & Mothershed Eye Center, and they collect glasses twice a year to give to a community outreach program, called A Tree of Life, and do eye care and eye exams for the Samaritan Clinic.


Congratulations to the team at Wesson & Mothershed Eye Center for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and thank you so much, Dr. Eckard, for taking the time to speak with us!
