His expertise and skills are excellent unfortunately, my insurance is an HMO and Harvard Eye no longer accepts HMO insurance. ONLY PPOs. I tried to get a PPO at any price, but PPOss are not accepting patients with Macula Degeneration. Only healthy applicants. The new law allows them to screen patients with Macaular Degeneration. As nice as it has been, i had to find a doctor who accepts my Hmo. RETINA Associates in Laguna Hills welcomes me. Not sure if this helps others in my predicament, without a PPO. As the new law discrimination creates a delusion of HEALTHCARE!

I highly recommend Dr Salib. His staff are all nice and courteous - good customer service.

The letter speaks highly of Dr Salib and his office. Again, I highly recommend Dr Salib!

From my first visit in the Newport office, through my exam in Laguna Hills, and finally the surgery, it was clear that Dr. Pirnazar truly cares about his patients and their goals. Ultimately, LASIK wasn't the best fit for me, and Dr. Pirnazar recommended a different procedure. Thanks to his expert guidance, I'm now seeing perfectly without glasses just one week after surgery! He performed the procedure on my right eye on a Monday, followed by my other eye a week later, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Dr. Pirnazar's professionalism, warm demeanor, and genuine care exceeded all my expectations. Life couldn't be sweeter!

I now need a similar procedure on my other eye. After 5 attempts to contact Denisse and being unable to contact Dr. Raoof directly, I wrote the following email to Dr. Raoof. I have not received a response from either of them after several weeks trying. This lack of customer/patient service is unprofessional and is forcing me to seek another doctor. "Dear Dr. Raoof, I have made five attempts to contact Denisse Brito and left messages each time. She returned one call, but unfortunately, I was unavailable, and no further follow-up was made. Given the lack of communication, my wife and I have decided to seek cataract/lens replacement surgery elsewhere. I believe it's important for you to be aware that this breakdown in follow-up is resulting in the loss of your patients. Sincerely, Jack Likins

I rarely leave negative reviews, but my experience with South Coast Eye Care Center has been…read moreincredibly disappointing and a major waste of time. I booked an eye exam specifically for contact lenses. When I arrived, they told me my appointment had been scheduled the previous week -- despite never receiving any reminder, call, or notification. Mistakes happen, so I rescheduled for the next day. When I came back, I was told (same-day) that the appointment was not for contacts, even though that's exactly what I requested when booking. They proceeded to do a regular exam and dilated my eyes without confirming the appointment purpose or telling me it wouldn't include contacts. Then they scheduled yet another appointment -- supposedly to actually handle the contact lens portion. Fast forward to today: I drove to their Laguna Hills office, checked in, waited ~20 minutes, and then was told the doctor "doesn't have time to see me today." No call, no heads-up, nothing. I took time off work for each of these visits, yet after three appointments, I still do not have my contacts. To make it worse, when I called after leaving, the best they could offer was to reschedule me with the same doctor who canceled on me today -- again, no acknowledgment of all the time wasted or effort to accommodate. This office has major scheduling, communication, and customer care issues. After multiple missed notifications, incorrect appointments, and last-minute cancellations, I'll be taking my business elsewhere.

In 2021 Kersten Diana, MD insisted I needed Cataract surgery for both of my eyes. Just prior to…read moreKersten Diana, MD performing Cataract surgery to my Right Eye my vision was 20/30 (R) & 20/40 (L). And, just prior to Kersten Diana, MD performing this surgery I was able to clearly see our distant Saddleback mountains. And clearly read the small print on vitamin bottles, all without glasses. Yet, Kersten Diana, MD insisted she begin Cataract Surgery with my right eye. I was reassured,"THIS IS TO PROTECT YOUR FUTURE VISION." I went along with Kersten Diana, MD's recommendation. (Kersten Diana, MD, Ophthalmologist @ Harvard Eye Associates in Laguna Hills, CA). I found out after the Cataract Surgery of my right eye that it was absolutely UNNECESSARY. MOST IMPORTANTLY, KERSTEN DIANA, MD'S CATARACT SURGERY TO MY RIGHT EYE MADE ME LEGALLY BLIND (20/200) IN MY RIGHT EYE. MAKING ME FOREVER LEGALLY BLIND. Imagine, KERSTEN DIANA, MD had planned next to perform Cataract Surgery to my left eye. Also, after this unnecessary life altering Cataract Surgery given by KERSTEN DIANA, MD I had an appointment to see KERSTEN DIANA, MD at her office where she had a huge desk. I sat across from her with my Husband. By then the after surgery cotton eye patch was off and I had just recently seen a highly respected Ophthalmologist who had my right eyesight tested. It had become 20/60 and steadily worsened. As I sat across from KERSTEN DIANA, MD in her office at her huge desk I said to her, "I had an Optometrist test my eyesight just after I followed your directions in caring for my right eye after your Cataract Surgery to my right eye. My right eye vision was 20/30 just before your surgery, it is now 20/60 and worsening. KERSTEN DIANA, MD looked at me but said nothing. She squeezed both her hands into fists and pounced each one twice on her desk as she raised her body from her huge desk. She, KERSTEN DIANA, MD then STOMPED OUT OF HER OFFICE. She never made any effort to contact me. I never saw her again. P.S. The severe damage resulting from the unnecessary cataract surgery to my right eye became 20/200 one month or so after the one year deadline to file a Malpractice Lawsuit. She lost nothing for unnecessarily blinding me. The Medical Board and general public are not aware of Kersten Diana, MD's willful medical neglect and unapologetic medical behavior.

This is the first optometrist we've seen since moving to Orange County, and I would recommend them to everyone I know.
