I recently attempted to schedule an appointment with Glendale Eye Medical I contacted the office…read moreNovember 12, 2025, at approximately 9 a.m., but the experience I had was extremely unsatisfactory. I called the office six times before finally reaching a live person. When I requested not to be put on hold, I was placed on hold regardless. After the individual returned to the line, I asked why, and her reply was, "What do you want, I am busy." I pointed out her rudeness, and she promptly hung up on me. My subsequent calls went unanswered. When I called later in the day, someone picked up the phone, but it seemed to be an accidental pickup, as I could hear an unrelated conversation between the receptionist and a patient, which I found odd. I have been a patient at this office for over 30 years and have never experienced any issues until now. However, I have concluded that the current frontline employees are incapable of providing professional service or even basic politeness, so I will be seeking care from a new eye provider. I attempted to call the office to speak with the office manager to request that my medical records be sent to another medical professional. I was informed the office manager was unavailable and that someone named Helen would contact me regarding my records; however, I have still received no communication from the office.

I had the good fortune of having Dr. Hovanesian perform two back-to-back eye surgeries on me. The…read morefirst one, for cataracts; the second one a vitrectomy to repair a macular hole, both on the same left eye. I felt compelled to write to you about this doctor and his professional skills. Having surgery on my eyes was something I never imagined having to do, and I was very afraid of any such surgery. You can imagine how I felt when I found out I needed to have two surgeries. However, Dr. Hovanesian made me feel safe and secure immediately. Of course, meeting the doctor and feeling this way does not necessarily translate into having a good surgery experience. Fortunately for me, that feeling was again felt when I had the cataract surgery and I sensed him in control and totally knowing what he was doing. That surgery went without a hitch, as did the recuperation. For the second surgery, 15 days later, I was a little more apprehensive because I knew it lasted much longer and I had difficulty getting sedated for the first one. Again, Dr. Hovanesian made me feel at ease and he spoke with the anesthesiologist about the need to make me feel comfortable. Surprisingly, that surgery was even easier than the first, as my sedation worked better than expected. Dr. Hovanesian gave me clear instructions about positioning and cautions, and at the one month evaluation, we were both elated that the hole had closed! I have every expectation that I will get good vision results as I'm already experiencing some of that as the gas bubble in my eye recedes. Dr. Hovanesian also has excellent bedside manners. I felt he really cared about his patients and is very compassionate. He also knows how to control people like me, who can be quite pushy at times! As if all of the foregoing were not enough, I interacted with his staff at three of his offices: Sherman Oaks, Glendale and Hollywood, and everyone was professional, courteous and friendly. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Hovanesian to anyone, and have already done so to my friends in California.

From the time we walked in it was the most amazing experience. We were graciously and warmly greeted by the front desk. There was hardly a wait and we were called in by a young gentleman, Vahon. We have never been treated so kindly and hospitably by any medical business! Never have we been offered coffee. Vahon was very professional and knowledgeable and more than competent. He took very good care of my 91 year old father. Then came Dr. Paronian! She took the time to explain in detail and in a way that we could understand the test results and future treatments! She listened to our concerns and put us at ease. My father who is hard to please was so impressed with Calif Eye Center and is looking forward to his future visits! We LOVE all of them!

Since 2019 I have been having vision issues, and Dr. Chan took good care of my process for cataract…read moresurgery this year. Dr. Chan took the time to listen to my concerns and made sure that the upcoming surgeries lead to improving my vision. His goal was for me to drive without glasses, and that means very, very good vision, if not perfect. The 1st surgery was in mid May, 2022, and I went back to see Dr. Chan to make sure everything went as planned. The 2nd surgery was in early June, 2022, and so far I can read as perfectly as anyone with excellent vision. Either day or night, driving has become so much easier now that I can see so well. Dr. Chan suggested getting reading glasses, and other recommendations to deal with my dry eyes. I would say Dr. Chan was the right doctor for me, at the right time. Of course I'll write a review for the surgeon as well.

I had an extremely disappointing experience with Dr. Ghazaryan…read more I scheduled an optometry appointment, arranged my day around it, and left my 88-year-old mother alone so I could attend. Only upon checking in was I informed of a prescription fee that had never been disclosed when the appointment was scheduled. Had I been informed of this fee when the appointment was scheduled, I could have planned accordingly. I explained that I was not refusing to pay the fee. Since I had already taken the time to come to the appointment, I respectfully asked whether the exam could proceed and would pay the prescription will pick up during my ophthalmologist appointment in a few weeks. The front desk initially indicated this might be possible. After completing the vision testing, the assistant informed me that she needed to speak with the doctor. Dr. Ghazaryan then entered the room without introducing herself or greeting me and immediately focused on the payment issue. Rather than listening to my concern regarding the lack of fee disclosure and the inconvenience it caused, her demeanor became increasingly confrontational. The disbelief I felt at the doctor's reaction is difficult to overstate. I was not refusing to pay the fee; I was simply explaining the circumstances and asking for consideration after being surprised with an undisclosed charge. To be met with such visible irritation, an elevated tone, and a refusal to continue the visit was disappointing to witness from a physician entrusted with patient care. When I attempted to explain my situation, I felt interrupted, dismissed, and rushed. Dr. Ghazaryan stated that she had other patients waiting and ultimately refused to continue the appointment. The interaction escalated unnecessarily, and I found her tone and conduct unprofessional. She then left the room in a manner that drew attention from others nearby, which was both embarrassing and upsetting. My concern is not the $50 fee itself. Medical offices have every right to charge fees and enforce their policies. My concern is that patients should be informed of those fees before they arrive for an appointment. Unexpected charges presented at check-in leave patients with no opportunity to plan financially or make an informed decision beforehand. Following the incident, I contacted the patient service call center to report my concerns because I believe both the lack of transparency regarding fees and the manner in which I was treated warrant review. Patients deserve clear communication, advance disclosure of charges, professionalism, and respect. Unfortunately, that was not my experience during this visit. What should have been a routine eye appointment became an unnecessarily stressful and confrontational encounter that left me feeling that my time, circumstances, and concerns as a patient were given little consideration.

Michael might be the most upbeat, positive, cheerful doctor I've ever met. He's like the sun and you are just drawn in by his sunny, radiant, personality. He treats you like he's known you for years and goes above and beyond to make sure he diagnoses you correctly. I've never had a doctor where I've felt that I could talk to for hours on end like this. He's very genuine and there's no BS. As other reviewers have stated, you really do feel like you're talking to an old friend. He wanted me to come back, free of charge, just to make sure my prescription had really changed. I've never had an eye doctor suggest that, and this was from a Groupon! I've never been so impressed during an eye appt. He really genuinely cares about you and wants to make sure you have the most accurate assessment.

For 2 years now, we are going through agony and all sorts of eye doctors, after Richard Havunjian…read moreperformed cataract surgery on my mom. He spoiled her eye so much that no doctor undertakes to fix it. Without asking us,he put only a distant vision crystal, put some kind of stent for glaucoma, which my mom did not have, and even managed to put the crystal displaced, and not in the center. After all this, he told my mom that the problem was in her head, and not in the way how badly he performed the surgery and just ruined my mom eye. If the light of your eyes is important to you and you want to preserve your eyesight ,Dr. Havunjian is the last person in the world to whom you can trust with your eye vision. Such doctors should be restricted from patients and from performing any kind of surgery. Vision is one of the important senses do not trust it to Havunjian.
