Del Rey Optometry - Dr. Kris and I! Awesome office and great experience - Optometrists Near Me - Marina Del Rey, California

Great experience! Just bought a new pair of prescription sunglasses from here and they were very knowledgeable about all the different frame styles and what is best fit-wise for my face shape. Made the decision easier! They also have free parking. read more

I've been to this optometrist twice and each time have been given great treatment and excellent customer service. Office is clean and they're very quick with seeing you and helping you. 10/10 recommend Dr. Rinaldi is great! read more

Dr. Rinaldi and the entire staff at Del Rey Optometry are fantastic. The doctor spent so much time reassuring my teenage son and even helping him to pick out frames. The staff is very supportive and personable. I love this office so much I keep coming here even after my insurance changed and I'm not covered. read more

Almost every time I go to the optometrist, I am never quite happy with my prescription. Until I went and visited this location and met with Dr. Kristine Kobayashi. I love both sets of prescriptions that she sent me out of there with and her staff are always so helpful and friendly. read more

I've been going to Marina Del Rey Optometry for years. Everyone there has always been helpful and friendly, and they really care care about my eye care. Excellent! read more

Highly recommend Dr Rinaldi. Great experience at the office for an eye exam. He's smart, professional, and genuinely cares. The entire staff took the time to explain everything clearly and made the whole process comfortable. They're incredibly helpful and attentive! read more

I went to Del Rey optometry and saw Dr. Rinaldi for a new prescription. When I received my glasses, I felt over corrected and like I was looking through a fishbowl, like warped vision. I came back to explain this, he took down my correction but despite my explaining that my vision also felt warped he did not address that. When I received my glasses again I felt like the edges of my sight felt warped. I have been wearing glasses since my teens so I know the difference between corrected vision and when something is off. I then went back to the same optometrist I went to a few years back and she corrected the axis for my astigmatism. Thankfully the place I got my glasses from allowed me one more set of lenses so I didn't have to pay extra on top of the two months it took to figure this out. I can now see normally. I tried to call Del Rey optometry twice today to give them this feedback, but no one answered the phone, so I'm leaving it here. read more

They send out an email that says don't lose your insurance benefits this year. I called and a person named Carson says they have no availability until the 23rd of December. I told him I'm traveling for the holidays and I've been a regular there for years. I always enjoyed my experience there and all the optometrist and support staff so I was really surprised when this person didn't offer to help me find an appointment or put me on a wait list or say let me see what we can do. Obviously I'll find a new optometrist office that hopefully values loyalty. What a let down. Next time don't send an email saying lets us your benefits before next year. Do better. read more

The team is awesome, but the doctor is fantastic :) I always am pleased by my experience at MDR Optometry

Dr. Rinaldi is a wonderful optometrist. I've been his patient for a few years and he always takes time and care and answers all questions thoroughly. The office team is great too. read more

It was the first time seeing Dr Renaldi for my eye exam and he was terrific. Very knowledgeable re my unique situation and very helpful. The staff is always very kind and don't pressure to buy the most expensive glasses. I will always return. read more

We have been seeing Dr. Rinaldi and couldn't be happier. The exam is thorough, professional and recommendations are evidence based. Newer tests eliminate the need for dilated pupils and there is often no need for additional ophthalmology visits if the patient does not have a condition requiring additional care and follow up. VSP covers most of our exam costs. There's free parking in the lot and underground. read more

I have been a patient here since 2015. I must say the service that's rendered is extremely professional and friendly ALWAYS. My favorite was Oscar, he is no longer there, has moved to a larger company. I called for an appointment the same day and was able to get in to be seen. The staff Lefty and Kayden was absolutely amazing with great patience. I highly recommend this place for excellence exam performed by a new doctor(I've misplaced his business card). He explained everything to me and answered a lot of questions I had for him. He was well knowledgeable about the concerns I had that needed to be addressed. I will return to get my frames because they have the BEST selections. Thanks to all the staff who assisted me yesterday Sandra read more

I needed the fit of my eyeglasses adjusted and went to Marina del Rey Optometry (4266 Lincoln corner of Maxella). Although I was not a client of this business, they were incredibly helpful and took care of my problem completely. This was not the first time they did so for me. This time Paola Arias helped me and she was courteous, sweet and efficient. I'd recommend them highly. read more

Had an appointment for contact lenses this time and Customer service is consistently impeccable! everybody is friendly, loves what they do and very knowledgeable! I love my previous optometrist but I found Marina Del Rey Optometry more accessible! Their office is spotless and i highly recommend them! Parking is a bit tricky, drive slow and find underground parking and you should be ok. Take the elevator to 2nd floor and turn left. :) read more

Dr. Rinaldi and the whole staff are amazing. They are thoughtful, thorough, and actually care about you. I've been wearing glasses and contacts for decades now and can confidently say this has been one of the top eye doctor experiences I've had. Definitely go. read more

I usually go to the playa office, but I came to Marina to look for some more options for glasses and sunglasses. They have a lot! My sister ended up getting 3 pairs. Dr Jenny Sung was also available that day to help us, and she is my usual opto at the other locations. Everybody is super nice and helpful. Parking can be a bit of a chore surface level, but they also have underground parking.. read more

I have been going to this optometry for three years now and I really love the service. Front desk is very welcoming and kind. I've had appointments with both Dr. Kobayashi and Dr. Rinaldi. I've had a great experience with both. They're very thorough and very helpful. I feel at ease during my appointments and get all my questions answered. Highly recommend!!! read more

Had a great experience with Marina del Rey Optometry! My glasses arrived early and it fit perfectly with out any adjustment other than to tighten it a little. read more

Follow up: after I picked up my glasses, optician David did a great job adjusting for my crooked nose bridge that makes every pair of glasses tilt. He took the tilt out and made them so they were the right length, not to tight, etc.. Dr Rinaldi also made sure I was comfortable with the prescription when it arrived. A+ read more

Del Rey Optometry - Optometrists Near Me - Marina Del Rey, California

Great staff. Super friendly and helpful. My go to eye people now.

Office advertises open hours on Sunday starting at 8am. I called at 8am on Sunday for an issue to speak to an optometrist and voicemail said the on call optometrist would call within 30 minutes. I got a call back 24 hours later. Just for good measure we drove there since that's our optometry office. That's where we spend our money for prescription glasses and there wasn't anyone there. The office was closed even though it advertised open hours. I would've appreciated a call to let me know no one was calling us back. Ended up going to ER for our issue; who knows what that bill will look like. ER's recommendation - after taking drops go see an Optometrist. This is definitely an office we won't be going back to. read more

Absolutely amazing experience. Friendly office, attentive personal. Doctor is absolutely knowledgeable and very interesting on her patients. I had a wonderful time and all my questions and concerns were answered. Very much recommend this place. I speak from experience, where last two places were not near as good as this one. read more

Everyone in the office is very helpful and friendly. I had 30 day insurance and changed out my frame selection as I was not as happy with it as I thought I would be. They helped me select a second frame which I love and made sure the prescription was exactly what I needed. read more

I love Domenico, he is nice, friendly, professional, informative, knowledgable, all the things you want in a Doctor. He is one of my favorite Doctors ever. read more

I tried to order contacts over the phone. They informed me I had to come in person for a new appointment in case my prescription had changed over the last year. I told them that I'm at risk for COVID, that I'd like to wait until I was fully vaccinated, and asked if I could get a short term supply in the meantime (1-2 months). They refused. I told them that I cannot do my job without contacts. They still refused. Sending me a short term supply of contacts is something they could easily do, but did not presumably because they want me to pay the full fee for an appointment, instead of just ordering contacts. Their stated rationale does not make sense: The risk of wearing of wearing slightly outdated contacts for a couple of months does not outweigh the risk of contracting severe COVID. I should note that the receptionist was nice and sympathetic, this decision came from the staff there and not her. I ultimately found another source for contacts, and will not be going back to Marina Optometry ever again. read more

The service was excellent from greeting at reception to having eyes tested to visiting w/the optometrist. I was given a thorough exam and the Dr took his time & was patient w/me when discussing my various options. read more

I've been seeing Dr. Kobayashi since I first moved back to LA in 2012. She's very personable, fun and she really knows her stuff. I think the worst thing about all the visits is that eye-puff test. You just can't get around how that startles. Haha Even though I've moved to Burbank, Silverlake, etc, I still make my way to Marina del Rey to see Dr. Kobayashi. I have a controllable exotropia (like a controllable outward lazy eye) and she teaches real simple exercises to help strengthen those muscles to keep my eyes straight. Personally, I love how laid back the team is. Often, my cheeks hurt from smiling and laughing. Dr. Kobayashi also remembers stuff from previous visits that normal doctors forget. Even though we only see each other once a year (with the pandemic it was a couple years.) I do wish there was more selection for petite frames in their office, but they're really good about doing the appointment and giving my prescription to order glasses elsewhere. Previously I was always made to feel bad by optometrists if I didn't order in-house. I'll keep going to Marina Del Rey Optometry as long as I need glasses. read more

Wonderful staff and doctors. I have seen Dr Rinaldi several times and he is kind and very knowledgeable. They are able to accommodate your schedule and the staff is quick, efficient, and friendly. Highly recommend!!! read more

These guys are great. I'm not a patient or client. I walked in cause I'd bent the frame on my Dita stunner shades. They fixed and cleaned and didn't charge. Classy joint. Good peoples read more

Terrible service. Dr. Kris Kobayashi made my day harder. Letty at the front desk was nice and professional, however Dr. Kobayashi did not provide the medical service I needed. Will be finding another optometrist! read more

So I went here this week to get an exam and to get new glasses. I don't think the office is called Nankas Ernest though. The sign outside just says Optometry, and Dr Nankas is one of the main doctors there.. but there are actually 2 more. I originally went into the office because it was close and to get my brother soem glasses. The office looked really nice so I decided to get my eyes checked there. Charisse the assistant was was very laid back and helpful. She even liked helping me pick out my glasses and told me when one didn't really fit well. And she didn't have any attitudes or give off the impression that I was wasting her time. The doctor I saw was Dr Huang. I don't have anything bad or good to say about him... but he kind of smelled like ass. Could have been something he ate. The exam went well, but I ended up with no glasses. I couldn't really find one that fit too well. I'm probably going to go somewhere else to find glasses. Oh yeah, and Dr Nankas is pictured in the first picture. .. standing off to the side. read more

It is so hard to find a doctor who treats you like a human being. A doctor, you can talk to and explain what is going on with you and he has the time to listen. Dr. Rinaldi is a true professional and he really cares for his patients. After going to two optometrists, one who gave me the wrong contact lens to wear, and the other optometrist refused to give me a peripheral eye test, it is so refreshing to meet an optometrist that believes in a full eye examination. I truly believe a doctor's front office is so important in a business. Dr.Rinaldi staff was very courteous and professional. From the person who gave the eye examination to the person who sat you down to go over your insurance and costs,it was a very good experience. Thank you. Please keep up the work. This is how you honor your oath to humanity. read more
