Excellent care. Office staff very professional and friendly. Explanations of treatment and medications. Clear.

Dr Le was very professional and knowledgeable. All the tests and the office staff were fast and efficient with many tests taken. I came back a second time to see if I had glaucoma for another test and there was no extra charge which I was happy about after seeing the doctor, he said I was borderline for glaucoma and I should come back in six months to check it again. I was thrilled because they were on time, Efficient , and I got a great news outcome. I'm going back in six months. read more

Very professional office. Dr. Le is very good and thorough. Have had cataract surgery and eyesight much improved.

The doctor was dismissive, argued and I am fairly positive he did not read the notes from my doctors had taken lots of time to faxed to explain what the concerns were. The assistant also strongly suggested an additional service not cover by insurance. She said it was the best way to get an accurate diagnosis. I have had many surgeries and eye appointments this year. Never been charged extra for a service. But since I needed the best service, I paid for it. The reason for my visit was to check eye pressure due to steriod drops and to check a Macular Pucker. Left the exam with him dismissing the steriods, telling me that I could possibly have glaucoma (which I do not. Temporary due to the steriods in 1 eye), and he wouldn't comment or review the macular pucker with me. The whole experience was a waste of my doctors and my time plus the expense. Maybe he's a good surgeon. I did not like his office behavior or diagnosis. I'm used to very skilled professionals who listen, show me the test results, and communicate with respect. read more

My husband and I started going to Dr. Le a few years ago. Our exams have always been very thorough. Recently, I needed cataract surgery in both eyes. I had the surgeries done two weeks apart. I have only positive words about both of the experiences. The surgery center that Dr. Le uses had phenomenal care before and after the surgeries both times. Dr. Le is an outstanding physician and surgeon. My vision has vastly improved. I followed the detailed instructions that I was given, and I'm very satisfied with my results. A definite plus is Dr. Le's office staff is wonderful! They are friendly, helpful and caring. I would definitely recommend Dr. Le! read more

Amazing results!!! Very thorough and professional. I would give Dr Hal Le my highest recommendation!

I went to Dr. Le after having problems with my night vision. I went to a very clean office and was greeted by his staff. At my appointment time, I was taken back for an initial screening. The woman who helped me was friendly and very helpful with my questions. Dr. Le was friendly and explained that I had cataracts and how he could correct my vision issues. He reiterated the whole process and I elected for a lens that would allow me to read my phone without glasses. I was then scheduled for surgery on the left eye. The staff at the surgery center made me feel very comfortable. I met with Dr. Le and he was very helpful with my questions. I went to his office the next day and he removed my eye patch. I was able to read email on my phone without glasses for the first time in many years. He and his staff instructed me on the use of the eye drop medications and there importance. The right eye was just as smooth and pain-free as the left eye. I used the medication as directed and I am very satisfied with the results. I freely recommend Dr. Le and his exceptional skills to those seeking eye care. I am a satisfied patient. Thank you, Dr. Le and his incredible staff. read more

I went to Dr. Le for many years and was 100% satisfied! He did cataract surgery on both of my eyes. I had lasik surgery many years ago and I understand that makes the cataract surgery somewhat more challenging. I have almost perfect vision and do not need to wear glasses except for reading glasses for very small print in a dark room, like Some restaurant menus. Unfortunately, I changed to a new insurance and Dr. Le is not in that plan so I had to change eye doctors. Would highly recommend Dr. Le. read more

Dr. Le is the best! He just did my cataract surgery and everything went smoothly. His office staff is great. They are friendly and very efficient at their jobs. The surgery was done at the El Mirador Surgery Center in Palm Springs. That facility is great! Everyone that I was in contact with was friendly, knowledgeable and made me feel at ease. I even received a call from Dr. Le in the early evening of my surgery checking to see how I was doing! Great place to go for eye care. They do a very thorough exam which is important for senior citizens. read more

Dr. Le has proven his dedication to taking the best care of his clients as I have experienced the best in class service. When I needed emergency assistance with a sight issue I was able to visit his office the very same day and received a review of the condition. I have to say in this day it is rare that a doctor can see you right away and guide you through the recovery process. I am blessed to have Dr. Le on my side and his staff is top notch as well. read more

If I could leave 10 stars I would. First, Dr. Le is professional and excellent at his work. I completed cataract surgery one week ago and I am thrilled will the result. Second, after surgery, you see him constantly and have your eyes checked and rechecked. There is nothing left to chance. And, lastly Dr. Le is a kind and thoughtful human being. I was having health problems NOT related to the eye surgery but he gave me helpful advice from one kind person to another in need. One of my friends witnessed the level of care I received and said, "I don't have cataracts, but if I ever get them I know I'll go to Dr. Le." Eye surgery is serious business. Don't trust your eyes to anyone who places an ad online. Go to the best. And that world be Dr. Le. read more

Dr. Le did a fabulous job on my cataract surgery! I had no idea that it was possible to see this well! He is very professional and answered all my questions. His office staff are also very professional. I am so glad that I went to him for my cataract surgery! read more

I have been to Desert Eye and Laser on two occasions and both times, the doctor misdiagnosed my condition ! The first time was for a pain in my eye. It became so intense at times, it woke me up in the middle of the night. The doctor's diagnosis was an infection and he prescribed some drops. The problem did not go away so I saw a different doctor. He described the problem as epithelium wrinkling and prescribed Muro 128. The problem and pain quickly dissipated. I went to the doctor at Desert Eye and laser a second time with multiple symptoms. Flashes in the corner of my eye, a sudden increase in floaters, a blurry spot in my vision and several tiny black dots which would come and go. After the doctors exam, his explanation was that he didn't see anything wrong with my eye and these symptoms are not uncommon as we age. Hearing his diagnosis, I asked.... all of these symptoms will start at the same time due to age? One day I wake up and my body and eye decides I'm getting old and all these symptoms start simultaneously? His reply was yes, it can happen and he walked out of the room . This made no sense to me at all, so about a week later, I saw a different doctor. This doctor took great care during the examination and saw what she thought was a possible hole or tear in the retina. She called a retina specialist and the specialist said I should come to her office right away. After being examined by the specialist, it was confirmed that I had a torn retina and if not addressed immediately, it could lead to a detached retina. I then underwent emergency laser surgery to repair the tear. Needless to say, I will NOT be going to this eye doctor again !!!!! read more

I have been seeing Dr. Le for two years for regular exams for eye health. He advised me a few months ago that I should start thinking about having cataract surgery in both eyes as the cataracts were slowly progressing. Early this month I had the first cataract surgery for my right eye which was amazingly easy and this week I had my left eye done. Dr. Le is the consummate professional, making sure I understood the procedures, checking on me that afternoon after surgery and again the next day. The staff at his surgery center and the staff at his office are all wonderful. I would highly recommend Dr. Le to anyone looking for a great ophthalmologist. read more

Dr Le removed my cataracts in February 2021. Results were amazing -- I could see distances without glasses, my night vision came back for driving at night, and I only use readers for the newspaper and computer. His office staff and procedures were professional and every effort was made to keep things clean and Covid safe. The clinic where the actual surgery was done was up to his standards, and they treated me like visiting royalty. Since when does a nurse bring you a cup of coffee just the way you like it after a procedure? Dr Le is good at what he does. I recommend him. read more

Great doctor always on time and thorough. Staff and facilities are wonders. Highly recommend.

My husband and I both go to Dr. Le. My husband, sister-in-law and a friend have all had cataract surgery by him, all are happy with their results. My husbands in particular was difficult because of a LASIK surgery performed by another Doctor that was not successful to say the least. I went to him for a regular exam and a contact fitting. I don't think he does that. When I asked him to rewrite my prescription he told me to bring the box from my current prescription and just rewrote what was on the box. I never could seem to make him understand I wanted one written from the exam that he just did. Very confusing. Still I believe he is good at laser surgeries and serious eye problems. read more

My primary care physician referred me to Dr. Le. The staff was welcoming and prompt. My exam was thorough and I was very happy with the professional and friendly manner of Dr. Le. read more

I went to an OD for an update to my glasses scrip. I was having trouble seeing small print and couldn't read road signs. OD said my scrip was fine, but I had cataracts and wouldn't pass my next driving test (this year!). He gave me a referral but, I did my own research and decided to see Dr. Le. Best decision! On March 20th I had cataract surgery my right eye and two weeks later the left eye. The surgery was quick and painless. Dr. Le and his staff are very efficient and professional. I would wholeheartedly recommend Desert Eye and Laser for any eye care needs. Mike P. Rancho Mirage read more

I've been under the care of Dr. Le since moving to The Valley in 2012. It is a pleasure to continue to give him and his staff an excellent review. The doctor is personable, totally professional, and very thorough, examining all aspects of your eyes. The staff is equally outstanding, friendly, and very helpful. The facility itself is immaculate and state of the art. It is a pleasure to visit this office. All explain everything in great detail. Recently, Dr. Le removed a secondary cataract from my left eye via laser treatment which turned out to be extremely successful. His practice is where you want to go for the best eye care in The Valley. read more

I have lived in the Coachella Valley for 6 years and a patient of 3 different ophthalmologists--none of whom I would recommend. I was happily surprised when I went to Dr Le. His office staff was very friendly and professional. My vision was very blurry even with my glasses. Dr Le informed me that I needed cataract surgery. He went in great detail about the procedure and what to expect during the recovery. I was amazed how clear my vision was after having surgery on one eye. 2 weeks later I had surgery on the other eye which improved my vision even more. I am very pleased with the results and would highly recommend Dr Le. read more

I am one week post cataract removal with Dr. Le and have already had 2 post op visits. Dr Le didn't fantastic job restoring my vision and has made this a much easier process than I anticipated. His explanation of the procedure, recovery and result was clear and concise and allowed me to manage my expectations. His staff is pleasant and knowledgeable and always on time! I highly recommend Dr. Le and appreciate the personalized care that I received from a one practitioner office. As a retired RN I would not hesitate to refer friends and family to Dr Le.

It is such a pleasure to give an excellent review to Dr. Le and his staff. I have just completed my second eye for cataract surgery. Both surgeries for left and then right eyes went smooth, organized and with brilliant results. I am so pleased and as always I felt well taken care of by Doctor and his team at the surgery center and at the office. Adding the extra level of concern due to the COVID-19 virus, the Surgery Center and Doctor Le's Office were 110%. I highly recommend Desert Eye and Laser for ALL eye care. They are the best. read more

I have been a patient at Desert Eye & Laser for the last 4 years. I have always been very satisfied with the operation and the staff. Dr Le is excellent.

I have multiple eye issues including cataracts, glaucoma, AMD and a permanently dilated pupil. Needless to say, it was imperative I found an eye doctor who not only understood all these problems, but how best to maintain my eyesight. Having had experience with other MD's in Palm Springs, I chose to drive what, for me, is a significant distance relative to other options. He is worth it! In addition to the high quality of care (and the confidence I have in him), Dr. Le's office is incredibly efficient. I despise having a set appointment, only to wait for protracted periods of time before you are called back to a room to sit even longer. I believe Dr. Le respects my time as much as I respect his. I never wait and he always spends whatever time necessary so I feel comfortable about my exam. I higlly recommend his practice. read more

Dr Hal Le was rude and disrespectful to my mother who had to visit him today because her eye was really red and she was having pain. Let me just cut to the chance, if you speak little or no English do NOT visit this doctor. He was very annoying that my mother required a translator (which by the way she was lovely and very helpful). Either way, will not be returning. read more

My husband and I both use Dr Le and are very satisfied with the care we receive. He and the office staff are knowledgeable, efficient, and friendly. My husband's eyes were bothering him and Dr. Le was able to pinpoint the problem quickly and efficiently. read more
