After filling out the paperwork, A few techs did some vision tests. Than Steven (Dr. Taban assistant) did some more tests and explained the results of the tests. Dr Taban arrived and looked into my eyes with a instrument. He had Steven record what he found in my eyes. Dr Taban said that I had some holes on my retina that need to be lasered. I need to schedule sessions to do this. Than he was finished and left the room. His visit went quick, less than 10 minutes but he was thorough. Steven explained what needed to be done. I went to the front desk and scheduled my appointments. Hopefully my insurance would pay for some of this. The entire Staff were friendly and professional. I felt that everything went pretty quick and efficient. I hope that after my 2 repair sessions, that my eyes will be good.

He also worked closely with cataract specialists so she could be seen and scheduled for surgery without unnecessary delays. He is extremely knowledgeable, attentive, and compassionate.

The entire office was organized, responsive, and focused on getting her the care she needed as soon as possible. Thank you for treating my mom with such urgency, respect, and kindness. We are very thankful for everything you and your team have done for her. SHE GAINED HER VISION BACK !!!!

The quality of medical care is exceptional! The techs in the back are wonderful as well. The front desk and check out staff do not reflect the medical team in a positive manner. Some of the front desk staff are disrespectful and dismissive. They do NOT acknowledge you standing at the desk. I have experienced this on many previous appointments but, today was the last time I would accept their behavior. I walked up to the desk and waited to be acknowledged. One woman was staring at the computer. She answered the phone once during the time I was standing there, she immediately placed the caller on hold. She was not typing. She must have been reading something. Or just ignoring me. Still never acknowledging me. The other two women had a patient in front of them. Neither one of them said anything, which is somewhat understandable. A simple, we will be right with you, from any of them, would have been great! After not being seen I asked if anyone could tell me where I was in the que. The woman looking at her computer never looked at me. One of the other ladies spoke up and checked the status for me. No one wears a name tag so no one is accountable.

I'm a big review guy…read more Before calling or going places, I try to read as many reviews as possible to ensure I'm not wasting my time or money. Dr. Liu and the team had amazing reviews online and I can confidently say that they definitely live up to the 5 star hype. I've been avoiding a consultation for probably a decade now due to my fear of anything near my eyes and undergoing a procedure like LASIK. That said, it was time I made the jump and all the reviews got me off my butt and helped me make the call. From the moment I made the appointment, I knew the service was going to be top notch. It continued on the day of my appointment from the minute I walked in to when I wrapped up and was on my way. Dr. Liu, along with everyone else on the team, was really friendly and put me at ease. She went over all my options and never did I feel pressured by her in any way. While I ultimately have a decision to make since I'm ineligible for SMILE/ LASIK, I still appreciated how thorough, patient and understanding she when explaining an alternative. If anyone is in a similar position as me, I highly recommend setting up a consultation with the team. They're the real deal!

Waiting was kind of long, 40 mins, there were two patients ahead of me. Clean office, staff are adequately polite It took them three tries to dilate my eye, the assistant commented my eye is too stubborn, ha. Since I put down yelp as my referral to the business, both the assistant and the doctor asked me, "what's yelp?" prompting me to give each of them a brife history of yelp individually. Hey, shouldn't I get paid for this? I guess he's well-established here, cause I recognize his face from back in the days when i was working in S. Bay Hospital. No hello or any pleasantry when first seeing me, but instructing me to put my purse on the chair. He seems to be a genteel person, so maybe that's the way he operates. He checked my eye with bright beam of light, and informed me that there is no tear to my retina, but he needs to see me in three weeks. I had a few questions to ask him but he gestured me to leave. Oh well, doctors are busy, I understand that. Overall, nah. I had it better

Now I will have to go somewhere else to get my contacts. I will not return. Their excuse is that sometimes they have a girl answer e phones who doesn't know all the procedures.

When he finally walks in the room he gives a little fist-bump and then immediately starts talking to his assistant as though I wasn't in the room. If I ask a question, he tells me to wait, talks to his assistant some more, "documenting" my supposed condition(s). He told me that I have macular degeneration and pushed his eye vitamins vigorously. Pushed dye tests 3-4 times a year. After years of this, I finally decided to get a second opinion. I don't have macular degeneration (the vitamins have no effect unless MD is active). The dye tests were unnecessary. I have requested that my records be sent to the new retina specialist, but none have been sent. I recommend getting a second opinion, no matter what he says. Oh, and as he leaves the room he gives another fist bump, says, "God Bless," and walks out, which I find condescending in a medical/business relationship.
