Interesting experiences with Dr. Huang. Over 20 years ago, I accompanied for ophthalmologic…read moreappointments, two senior friends, each with serious eye problems. In one friend's case, Dr. Huang was not able to remedy his long-held retina injury. In the other gentleman's case, Dr. Huang gave my friend the miracle of better sight with glaucoma surgery. You've given a gift to an 87 -year old who worked hard all his life, when you've improved his vision. I'll always be grateful to Dr. Huang for his expert care to my two friends. So now I've developed a vision challenge of my own. I started out at another ophthalmologist practice because the office was 'closer'. Yeahright. I had a reaction to the dilation fluid and a test that they sent me to take. I should have gone to Dr. Huang in the first place, I wouldn't have needed those tests... The question was, is an eye lift considered necessary, as in covered by medical insurance, or cosmetic, which is not. Dr. Huang knowledgeably said: it would be considered cosmetic because the eyelid is not covering half the eye. I don't recommend you get it anyway, because you have dry eyes now. "Oh".......so I might have saved those multiple appointments had I asked the expert? May I say to the other reviewers here...have patience....it is the nature of a busy office. There are several tests, a patient is going room to room, some patients are of advanced age. It's a busy office because they're good. When you find an excellent handyman or painter, mechanic or surgeon, you're going to have a wait....it's because he or she is good. Dr. Huang's office opens at 7 a.m., I still can't believe it and I've been there twice at that time. If you're tight for time, consider that first appointment. I must say, though, the office needs space management work. There must be computer-assisted design for medical offices, find it and use it, the office can have better flow. As one reviewer stated, one of the test machines is in the thruway. C'mon. The office is spacious, use the space better. Now, please, Soapbox Time. Each of us has a job to do with medical billing. It's changing, it's in flux, but we'll all wind up in a better place if we learn, and teach what we have learned. Why do I need this test? What is it? Do you have a list of the associated costs on your website? Had I a list of the test names, I could have called my hospitalization myself to see what was covered. I'll bring it up when I go back. Learn and teach. In my unfortunate "first ophthalmologist" case...I guesssssss they told me to bring sunglasses for the test. In Dr. Huang's office, there's a box of sunglasses there, need a pair---take 'em. I think a lot of medical offices need feedback and suggestions. With eyecare, with the tests, we're all new at it. Some people are Mr. Magoo without their glasses. All of us are briefly disoriented with eye tests. Patience. Learn. Teach. Be thou Grateful. Dr. Huang is a highly trained specialist. I have firsthand experience with the seniors I brought to Dr. Huang, and now, twenty years later--for me. He's the best.

I don't know what Dr. Hyang did, but my eyes are worse than before. I still need glasses for distance and they are drier than ever before and often cloudy. Also, Dr. Huang took to giving me hugs when he saw me for follow up visits, I think to mollify me. I do not recommend him. I think his son is much better.

Yau does not discuss things with you; he simply dictates. He takes no questions. He explains nothing. He rushes you in and rushes you out.

Dr. Chu is an outstanding doctor! I've been going to eye doctors for more than 60 years, and Dr…read more Chu is the very best. I chose him because my sister (a nurse) has been going for years, and recommended him highly; and because of his professional expertise. From the moment I met Dr. Chu, I was so impressed. Everything about the entire experience was truly professional and first-class, including Dr. Chu's staff and state-of-the-art equipment. Dr. Chu's expertise and experience speak for themselves - he's brilliant and skilled, yet kind and even humble. He educated me about cataracts, and later performed cataract surgery on each eye. All easy & seamless. Dr. Chu not only restored my vision - it is better than it has ever been! I am overjoyed and grateful every day - I recommend Dr. Chu whole-heartedly~

I have been seeing Dr Chu for many years. At one point I felt he was pushing the laser cataract…read moresurgery even though the knife is just as accurate, but the laser costs over $3000 out of pocket. So I went to another eye doc, who was a crook. Suddenly I was developing a new eye disease every time I went for a check up. Went back to Chu, only to find out I did not have any of those eye diseases. So, back to Chu, who over time has become very short tempered, impatient and rude. He did my cataract surgery, which went fine. But if I have more than one or two questions he becomes very disagreeable. My distance vision since cataracts has NOT been corrected by glasses using his prescriptions. Last he told me there was nothing he could do and walked out of the room. If there is a vision issue, the doctor should want to find the problem and correct it. He did not. So, no more Dr Chu. Whenever I had an appointment I did not look forward to his moodiness. It has gotten worse over the years and many of his staff acknowledge this.

My experience with Dr. Ephraim was 5-stars across the board! He was timely, there was never any waiting, and it was overall an extremely pleasant, easy process. There was no puff of air (argh! thank goodness), yet he had technology that I've never had used on me from other places that was able to show detailed digital images of my eyes and its cones, etc. He prioritized both the health aspect of my eyes as well as the accuracy and optimization of the prescription which was exactly what I was hoping for. There was no pressure to buy glasses or contacts from them, which I appreciated. Dr. Ephraim was also super-personable and funny, and his staff was efficient and professional. I paid out of pocket because I didn't like the experience I had elsewhere, and it was worth it, but he does take multiple vision insurance providers. Note: I did originally have trouble connecting with them for an appointment and didn't get an answer the first couple times. I called a bit earlier and that helped to finally connect.
