I recently visited the Eye Center of La Jolla for cataract surgery. While I was generally satisfied…read morewith the surgical results, the overall experience left much to be desired. On the positive side, the surgeon performed a good job. However, I encountered significant issues during the pre-operative process. The staff member responsible for my IV insertion lacked the necessary proficiency, which resulted in a painful injury to my hand; a different staff member eventually had to step in to complete the procedure. Additionally, I found the administrative process to be quite disorganized and inefficient. Having received excellent care from surgeons back home in the past, I felt the quality of support and administrative coordination here did not quite meet that same standard. I am sharing this feedback in the hope that it will help the center improve their patient care and internal processes.

I phoned for my usual spring appointment two weeks ago and was informed he was no longer practicing and calls were being routed to another ophthalmologist. No letters were dispatched from him/his office advising his practice is now closed and no one knows where he relocated. He did not renew his CA medical license when it expired this March. He was deserving of a 5 star review.

The visit was pleasant and I had all my questions answered. I really enjoyed my visit. When I paid my copay, I thought that it was rather high. I called my insurance (thinking that I should have checked to see if they were in-network, and they were). I called the office to question the discrepancy in the amount and was told that the charge was for the retina imaging. I was not informed of the additional cost. (I have not had to question additional costs at an optometry office before.) I was told that it gives the doctor a better view of the eye. I really liked the doctor and she answered all my questions. She was very thorough. I just wasn't informed of the additional service/cost.

WARNING: Patient care is not a priority here…read more Over the last three years, my husband and I have witness this office treat patients like a burden rather than people in need of care. I am appalled by the rigid, unfriendly, and frankly counter-intuitive policies of this office. As a fellow health care professional, I have never seen anything like this: Refusal of Care for Acute Symptoms: In an alarming move for an ophthalmology practice, the doctor refused to treat me when I presented with acute symptoms requiring an exam. Instead of receiving medical attention, I was told to find a different doctor. Hostile Scheduling Policies: Their rescheduling policy is punitive. My husband attempted to move an appointment ONCE providing several days' notice. He was barred from rescheduling into an open slot and told he was "relegated" to a four-month waitlist before he could even call back to try again. Unprofessional Communication: When we sought clarification on these bizarre rules, we were met with hostility from the front desk and told to find care somewhere else. Our experience is not unique. This is how the Dr operates his practice. It truly feels as though this office actively looks for reasons not to treat patients. Between the unreasonable gatekeeping at the front desk and the doctor's refusal to address urgent needs, this practice is a liability to the community. Save yourself the stress and find a provider who actually values patient health and basic professional courtesy.

My PCP recommended Dr Granet, I really didn't know what to expect but it turned out to be the best decisions I could have made.

The procedure itself was painless and fast. I no longer need to deal with prisms and can see clearly. My new prescription is where it was 20 years ago. Dr Granet is the real deal as you will discover if you read his bio and accomplishments. If you are in need of eye realignment and are able to come to San Diego this is a no brainer. I can't recommend him enough. Thank you Dr Granet!! Larry Huston Palm Springs

I was absolutely petrified to go through with eye surgery, and am generally an extremely anxious…read moreperson as it is. To know that I was considering trusting someone to shoot lasers into my eyeballs was horrifying. For this reason, I've put off LASIK and hadn't seriously considered taking the leap of faith for years. About three years ago, I was told that I could no longer wear contact lenses, or I'd risk blindness due to over a decade of wearing contacts while out surfing. I guess the combination of saltwater, sand granules, and whatever else trapped between the contact and my eye had caused severe scarring and repeated infections. Without contacts, surfing just hasn't been the same. I couldn't see well enough out in the lineup, and felt very depressed remembering what it used to be like when I was able to wear contacts out there. My only option was eye surgery, or a lifetime of squinting and not really enjoying my biggest passion in life, which I've been doing for 24 years. I came across Clearview online, and spent tens of hours, literally, researching the clinic, Dr. Sandy Feldman, reading reviews, etc. I decided to go in for a consultation, and was immediately put at ease by the friendliness, professionalism, and patience of the staff. In terms of patience, I'd especially like to thank Jared, who sat with me for over an hour answering all of my questions and addressing my concerns, never being forceful or trying to get me to sign and schedule. We discussed what type of surgery was best for me, how much it was going to cost (I received an Educator discount which was great,) and what the recovery timeline was. I ended up scheduling surgery for yesterday, 5/15, which at the time was about two weeks out. Last week, amidst another freak out about this, I called Jared and asked if it would be possible to observe a LASIK operation to settle my nerves. Sure enough, he found a patient that was kind enough to oblige and invited me in to watch. The entire operation took less than ten minutes and looked like no big deal! The patient came out smiling and said he felt fine. That really was the final piece that encouraged me to just commit and get this handled. I went in for surgery at 2:30 yesterday. I was a terrible patient, did not take things well, was not calm whatsoever, and repeatedly freaked out. I squeezed the small teddy bear they gave me as if I was a toddler, and squeezed the surgical tech's hand, asking Dr. Feldman if "everything was ok," and "did something go wrong?" She exhibited herculean levels of patience and empathy. I got through it, there was absolutely no pain, and the experience felt like something out of a science fiction movie. It was actually very cool! I went home, took the provided sleeping pills, and passed out. While I woke up intermittently throughout the night, the worst of it was just a feeling like I had sand stuck in my eyes, blurry vision, and a sensation as if I was looking through a steamed up glass. I woke up this morning around 5, (twelve hours of sleep is more than enough,) and found that the gritty sensation had since disappeared, my sight was near perfect, and I felt more or less normal. Unbelievable! I drove myself to my pre-op appointment (without glasses), met with Dr. Amir who told me that I was healing nicely, and was in and out of the office in ten minutes. I challenge others to be as freaked out and apprehensive about going through with eye surgery as I was. I was doing all of the things you shouldn't do: -Googling horror stories about LASIK going wrong -Hyperfixating on the rare low review and looking for one that stated someone had gone blind -Listened to a bunch of Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder and considered if my degree in Jazz Saxophone would be enough to make a living as a blind man All is well! My only regret, as many have stated, is not getting this done sooner. Just do it! You're going to be fine, you'll love the results, it does not hurt, and you can trust Dr. Feldman and her team. Thank you all so much for everything!

All 3 times, the staff were amazing and helpful. Everything was explained to me in detail and they made sure I was comfortable. I had very bad vision but was at ease with the surgery considering how the folks are at Gordon Schanzlin. The surgery itself was probably only 5 mins, but a lot was done to make sure I was calm and ready for it. When I was a bit nervous during surgery, they helped distract me momentarily so we could continue seamlessly. I was given clear instructions for aftercare and i had zero complications. I even drove myself to my follow up like they said id be able to! When I needed receipts to help with FSA / insurance reimbursements, I called in and was assisted upfront. I never had any issues with the office side of things either! 3 months later, i still have 20/20 vision and 0 issues. I'm very happy with my treatment and would highly recommend Dr Echegoyen and the Gordon Schanzlin Institute.
