    I cannot recommend Dr. Lim highly enough!!! 17 thumbs up!!!…read more She is a miracle worker. I was the biggest scaredy cat about getting my cataract surgery done. I have been wearing glasses since the third grade and I am extremely near-sighted. One of my biggest fears is losing my sight. Dr. Lim made me feel extremely confident about getting the surgery. She explained the surgery in detail and she offered excellent advice about the right type of cataract lenses for me. The surgery itself was extremely quick and painless. I felt like I was at a Laserium show at a planetarium and not in an operating room. There are a number of follow-up appointments scheduled for the day and week after surgery. Both Dr. Chan and Dr. Zhang were caring, knowledgeable, and friendly at these follow-up appointments. The Walnut Creek office staff is also wonderful, friendly, and efficient. Being the nervous Nelly that I am, I did call them more than a few times with my worries. I am now seeing 20/15 out of my distance eye. I can read 4 point type out of my reading eye. I feel I should be on a lecture tour, wearing a Super Hero cape to match my new bionic eyes, touting the wonders of cataract surgery with Dr. Lim. The only regret I have is enduring blurry and dimming vision for a year because I put off my cataract surgery because I was so scared. If you need cataract surgery, make an appointment with Dr. Mira Lim!!! You will be so happy you did. It was the BEST DECISION I have ever made in my life.

She is a one in a million genius eye surgeon with a manner so unassuming and a hand that is so calm and self assured, you pray that she is there whenever you go under the knife. Period! Her specialty is corneal implants. She loves what she does and she loves to give the miracle of perfect sight to her patients. I'm 77 now and one day after the surgeries my eyes tested 20/20 & 20/24. Three year later they still test the same. I'm so grateful to her! It is not surprising to me that she worked with Dr Vastine, the Errol Flynn of eye surgeons. And she was referred to me by Dr Litwin, one of the best. Don't even think about it. Get on her waiting list today.

I visited the Pittsburg clinic and from start to finish an all around great experience. All the staff was friendly, professional and attentive. I was seen in a very timely manner. The physician, Dr. Wang was thorough and explained my condition very clearly to me, answering my questions. The building is older, with a shared waiting area, but it was clean and not overly crowded. I will be staying with Dr. Wang and their team for any needed follow up. I would recommend this practice.

    I had a scheduled appointment at 3:00, as I waited to be seen, I over hear Dr Meng Lee saying that…read morehe need to leave by 4p.m. because he had a date. He was already running late, it was 3:45 when I overheard him. When he finally got to my appointment it was 3:55, now he's rushed. He dilated my eyes then proceed to give me an eye exam. I knew that was incorrec since my vision was blurred from the dilation. I called them back a few weeks later and explained what happened with Dr. Meng, they scheduled another appointment with a different Dr. to double check my vision prescription. Sure enough there's a big different. Furthermore, I was charged for both appointments. When I left the office they schedule a one year follow up. A few days afterward, I called the office and canceled the appointment since I no longer trust their provider's care. Fast forward a year later, I get a call from their office to remind me of my upcoming appointment which I canceled a year ago. I missed their call and they left me a voice mail, I picked up the voice mail within seconds after missing their call and called them back, 15mins prior to closing and the incoming calls were directed to their voice mail, I get it it's Friday. I left a message explaining the appointment was canceled and request for a call back to confirm. Monday morning I called to ensure they cancel my appointment. The first time I called they informed me two calls were ahead of me and put me on hold after ten mins. I hung up. I called back several times during the day and their voice mail indicated they were busy and directed calls to call their other locations if it's an emergency. I realise cancelation is not an emergency, but I do not trust in their care/services and charge me for late cancelation. I called their other locations which directed me to an answering service. I finally called the WC location again this afternoon and left yet another message to cancel my appointment. Please do your own research for a provider that cares about your health. In the Walnut Creek area there are lots of options.

I met with Dr. Jacobs on December 12 to go over the changes so we could get the ball rolling and not have a delay in my immune treatment which I require every 3 weeks to stay healthy due to a serious immune disorder. He assured me that it would be handled well. Then almost month later I call back and find out nothing has been done. The office didn't have a new script from the Dr. The contract worker they had hired to deal with insurance benefits at the office still didn't know I had a new pharmacy benefits provider. She was trying to order the old medication from the old benefits provider. So I spent the next two weeks on the phone for entire days - leaving messages, waiting on hold, coordinating between nursing staff (bc the dr was now on vacation), the independent contractor who didn't understand my insurance change, my pharmacy benefits provider and the pharmacy filing the order. Babysitting grown adults who are getting paid to apparently not do their jobs. The office at first admitted to dropping the ball, then they each slowly started to blame other people in the office and I realized what a toxic dysfunctional mess the whole operation was. Perhaps they once were good - the vast majority of these five star reviews are many years old. Today, I think they can handle routine allergy shots. That's their bread and butter. Anything more is a deep stretch for their abilities. In the end I finally got my medication two weeks late and it would have been even later if I hadn't borrowed a medical pump to use from a complete stranger. This was an incredibly stressful process that would have been avoided if people at this office understood how to do their jobs.
