I've been having episodes of debilitating and extreme double vision and dizziness for four years now. For the last two years, my regular neurologist has been refusing to address my issue, saying I need to see a neuro-ophthalmologist first. I waited over 18 months to see another (more qualified) doctor, but I couldn't get an appointment. Six months later I was told about Dr. Grand by a colleague of his. I was able to see him quite quickly because of a cancellation (the only reason I'd give him one star--it was the only thing that went well). When I arrived, a nurse, assistant, or tech saw me first. She gave me a tracking exam; it was quite thorough based on other exams I've had. It probably lasted 45 seconds or so, when my other exams only lasted 10 or 15 seconds. After that exam, Dr. Grand appeared. He asked me what my issues were. I told him I was having double vision and dizziness. That's all I ever had a chance to say about my symptoms. He cut in and started looking at my chart; he looked for about 30 seconds, then said he didn't have any of my MRI images. I told him they were supposed to have been included when my doctor sent over my medical records, and I was going to offer to get them to him. He cut in again and looked around in his system for a few more seconds, saying they could be there, but he may not be looking in the right place. He shrugged it off and said he did have the MRI written report, which he read (all of this took about 1.5 minutes). He pointed out my (nearly) normal results, including the eyes themselves. He tested my depth perception, which took about five seconds. Then he examined my eyes with the prism. He took the longest there, but only because he was interested in the corneal surgery I'd had about 35 years ago. The scars from it are very noticeable, and he was fascinated by them. We talked about the four procedures I had had on my corneas. This exam (including our conversation) took about five minutes. He stopped examining my eyes, and we talked about having prisms in my glasses (I already have them). He told me to keep them and to talk to my regular ophthalmologist about it. This conversation took about one minute. Then he told me that my eyes looked and were functioning normally, so he couldn't help me. He got up and left! This declaration took about 10 seconds. In the end, I spent less than 9 minutes in Dr. Grand's company. I've waited two years for this, and he forgot about the NEURO part of his specialty. I never even got to tell him the history of my condition. I didn't get to tell him any specifics of my episodes. He didn't know how severe my symptoms are because I wasn't having trouble while I was in his office (I had one later in the day) and he didn't ask or even let me talk. He is totally incompetent and does not know how to communicate. I filed a grievance against him with my insurance company. read more

I saw this man for the first time on October 30, 2025. His bed side manner was anything but nice. He was abrupt & in a hurray. He did not even have an optical cloth to wipe off my glasses & when I reached for my purse to get mine, he abruptly said he had other patients to see & walked out. I had to wait at least 15 minutes for him to return & he acted as if my time was not just as valuable. I would never recommend him. read more

A+++quality of care & knowledge of the field, compassionate, a peacefull human. ,,................................

Specialist, Eye Doctor. A very nice man, unlike some reviews. He was prompt, greeted me friendly. He seemed thorough and knowkedgeable. I liked him! His 3 ckerks out front were not so great. Very chatty with some customers or among themselves. Dont try and stand near the counter as they will quickly point to the sign that reads "Stand Here" about 10 ft from the counter. Rude, if you want my thought. I did not feel any friendly from any of the three clerks but its unlikely i will ever see them again since this office is a specialist. I give the staff 2 stars and the Doctor 5 stars. read more

I was having issues with double vision. I saw Dr. Grand in 2024 and he wrote a prescription for prism lenses. I ended up spending $895 on glasses & sunglasses with the new prism prescription and continued having issues. When I was able to finally see another doctor, they said that Dr. Grand had written the prism prescription wrong. Now if I want to have the correct prism rx put in, I will need all new lenses. I understand everyone makes mistakes, but this is extremely frustrating and insurance will not reimburse me for any of it. read more

Alexander Grand, MD - horizontal prism should have both been written as "out" but here one was written as "in" - Ophthalmologists Near Me - Sacramento, California

My experience with Dr.Grand has consisted of two visits, which started with an exam when I was experiencing "floaters". Dr Grand was able to easily diagnose the issue and made sure to explain things thoroughly, and I got the very unique feeling this is a physician who cares, who listens and genuinely likes people. He's highly skilled, knowledgeable and a problem-solver. His staff are professional , courteous and patient. I only wish more medical professionals in my experience were as exceptional, thorough and attentive. I'd write reviews for them , too ; ) read more

Subpar care. Spends a lot of time gossiping with his staff. I do not recommend him. Find a qualified Opthalmologist.

I've had eye doctors since birth . Dr Grand Is incredible , super thorough and kind. Really understands his craft and uses every technology available to better his patients I would not want to see anyone else . I highly recommended him . Thank you Dr Grand , you work with me where I am and are truly a genius . Office staff is great too read more

I've been going to Dr. Grand since I was a kid. I have nothing but amazing things to say about him. He is personable, friendly, and really takes care of his clients. I wish I can stay with him, but I had to switch insurance for work. But if it wasn't for that, then I would be here and would recommend him to each and everyone of my friends and family members. read more

Dr. Grand is a very talented surgeon. He is not only an Ophthalmologist but he is fellowship trained in Neuro-Opthalmogy as well as Occuloplastics. He is a versatile provider who does so much more than just eye exams. I have been a patient of Dr. Grand's for several years. He has done numerous eye exams for me as my vision has changed significantly over the time I have been his patient. I had to have a surgical procedure performed by Dr. Grand where his fellowship in Occuloplastics made a huge difference in my care. I am extremely satisfied with the results of my surgery and I would recommend Dr. Grand to any and everyone I can. He has always treated me with respect and he shows concern for my well being. His office staff are always professional and courteous. I feel like this office goes above and beyond for their patients and I truly appreciate the exceptional customer service I receive each time I interact with them. I cannot say enough good things about this office. Overall I would highly recommend Dr. Grand for all of your vision care needs. read more

Dr. Grand is an awesome doctor. He was able to help me when several other doctors could not. He always listens and follows through. He is very knowledgeable, skilled and kind. I can't recommend Dr Grand enough and I'm grateful I found his care...it has made a huge difference in my quality of life! read more

Dr Grand is amazing! He has great bedside manner. I love how he takes the time to explain everything to me. All of the staff is wonderful. I would definitely recommend him. read more

Not recommended!!! He had been treating me for my eye condition for about a year and one day because i voiced my concern about my last treatment, he threw a fit and took it out on me by YELLING at me and was over aggressive on his handling of me, as a result I had more physical damage done to my eyes post treatment than I usually do. He later called to apologize for his behavior which should tell you that even he realized he was a *^#%!! But I felt that his apology was half baked to save his skin so that I wouldn't be encouraged to file a complaint against him to the medical board or to his medical affiliation. Don't trust any reviewer who has 1 or limited amount of reviews and Dr Grand is the only one they reviewed? That's called suspiciously fake reviews. read more

I have avoided returning to Dr Grand after seeing him for my last eye exam. Nothing about the visit sat well with me. The office is old and kind of gross, an "assistant" did most of the actual exam (something i have never experienced with another eye doctor), and Dr Grand was not at all helpful in addressing the issue I came for - I was told to see an ophthalmologist during a pre-employment physical. He was rudely dismissive - as if he did not hear me say (or care) that I was instructed to see an eye Dr as a condition of employment. He essentially told me, "that's just stupid". Longstory short I have put off returning for any follow ups because of his disrespectful manner, lack of concern and generally uncomfortable office vibe. I'm writing this review now, much later, because I desperately need an exam and new prescription and am looking for a new doctor. I came across these reviews and felt I ought to add my 2 cents for others who are also looking for a doc read more

I had a previous surgery, from a different surgeon, and a few weeks later my sutures completely came apart on my eyelid. I was unable to see my original surgeon in a timely manner so I reached out to Dr. Grands office to see if he might be able to help. He didn't hesitate, he made room in his schedule and had me come to his office the following day where he took immediate care of my torn eyelid by re-suturing it to the proper position. He took extreme care and sutured everything perfectly. To be sure everything was healing well he had me come back two weeks later. Upon review everything was healing well and he removed the sutures. Four months later my eye looks great! read more

Dr. Grand has been my eye doctor for 3 years now. He is knowledgeable and courteous. I've had nothing but good interaction with him. Actually I love Sutter and he is part of the Sutter Grou read more

Dr Grand requires an MRI brain scan before seeing patients with double vision (diplopia). I thought he might offer some insight into my particular diplopia so I got the MRI and scheduled an appointment My experience was more than disappointing. He said he required a brain MRI to rule out a brain tumor. I thought that was rather odd since most diplopia issues have nothing to do with bran tumors. I brought him the cd of my MRI but he was not interested in looking at it. Instead he asked to see the written report. I already knew it indicated there was no serious issues. It was disappointing that he was not interested in looking at the MRI to make sure that the report was accurate. I had recently gotten glasses with prisms from another doctor. They were effective but I was having trouble with my distance vision. I was expecting that he would give me a complete eye exam but instead he asked to see the prescription from the other doctor. I informed him I was also doing vision therapy exercises. He did not think much of that idea but instead suggested I see an eye surgeon and gave me a referral. I am not sure if it was the vision therapy or the time it took for my eyes to adjust to the glasses but I can now see clearly with no vision issues. In conclusion my experience with Dr Grand was a waste of time. If you have a double vision issue I suggest you see some other doctor. read more

This man is NOT a "good" man at all. He goes into spontaneous tirades, nervously taps and clicks and blurts out outrageous statements and then tells you about surgery as he escalates his verbiage and his talking with a cursory attitude toward you. I say Run, run as fast and as far as you can and consider yourself lucky he didn't work on your precious sight. read more

Dr. Grand is the kindest eye specialist I have been to. He treats my whole family! Some of his specialities are from what I hear are "the only" or only a few in his field in Sacramento. I feel so lucky that such a highly skilled optomophalogist has time to treat my eye condition and he was kind enough to do my prescriptions as well. You know most people get a optometrist at best. You have to check out his wall of certificates and residencies! It's impressive! read more

I highly recommend Dr. Grand, and continue to see him to this day. He was my surgeon for an urgent, cancer related eye-removal surgery I had to have done, and his team worked with me and my oncologists actively to make sure the surgery was necessary, performed correctly based on my specific needs, and expedited the procedure at my request, which was very important to me. His office even helped me identify the best provider to create my prosthetic eye after the surgery. Working with his office made a tremendously difficult and stressful situation a little easier, both on and off the operating table. read more

I am grateful to have Dr Grand as my ophthalmologist. He is outstanding, being very skilled and knowledgable in this field of medicine. It's nice to talk with a professional who really knows what he is doing. Recently I had minor eye surgery at Fort Sutter Surgery Center. It was a great success. read more

Nothing like waiting 1 hour 1/2 without seeing the doctor yet. Screwy office. Poorly trained staff.

I have been going to Dr Grand for many years. He is kind and explains all procedures completely and listens well. He is a rarity these days and I have complete trust in him. His staff is friendly and caring. read more

Wait was really long, doctor spent less then 5 mins with me and it was my first visit. I think a little more exam time for a first time patient is needed. Didn't ask about eye history at all which is weird. Also wanted contacts but someone else is calling me for that appointment. Prior experience is the doctor will fit you with contacts then and there and usually give you a trial pair. I have been in glasses/contacts since birth so this isn't my first exam. read more
