Dr. Brar performed cataract surgery on my left eye in October of 2018, and when I went to write…read morethis positive review I noticed that a previous reviewer "Bill L." had taken the words out of my mouth. I can't improve upon what he wrote, so here's a recap of what he said in 3 bullet points: (1) I got a really good feeling about him at the initial consultation because, among other things, he dismissed the 'need' for the fancy (and expensive, w/ extra out-of-pocket cost) accommodating and multi-focal IOLs. He said that all I needed were regular IOLs (which are also the cheapest). (2) Dr. Brar performed the surgery at the South Bay Surgical Center (a stones throw from nVision's Torrance office), and the results have been the best vision I've ever had in years (for me, just my left eye) with no complications and no pain. (3) Just as importantly, Dr. Brar has a quiet confidence about him and an unmistakable sense of doing what is best for the patient. He knows what he's doing, and you can sense it . . . all without any arrogance or bragging on his part. I couldn't have put it better. Thanks to Dr. Brar for the great work, and Bill for the words.

I didn't want to make the drive to my eye doctor in OC so I contacted this office and they were able to squeeze me in the same day. Thank you so much!! The staff was friendly, patient and professional. I have PPO insurance so I was able to go with whomever so that helped. In keeping with the friendly and approachable theme - Doctor Florister was also very friendly, patient and professional. And quite funny. She was a bit alarmed that I had rinsed off the top layer of my eye but reassured me that the eye will heal itself in a day or two if I stopped rinsing. The moral of the story I learned is that if something gets caught in your eyes- just rinse continuously for the first 15 minutes and then stop - whatever is in there would come out by then if not then no amount of continued rinsing would help. Don't be an idiot like me and rinse every two hours ! ‍‍ My eyes are back to normal now with the use of eye ointment and gel drops. No prescription medication needed and not antibiotics because she didn't think it was infected. Overall I was very happy with my experience with Eye Care Riviera and highly recommend it! Cheers!

My name is Kemp Massengill, MD, and my medical background is that of a practicing Eye Surgeon for…read more25 years specializing only in cataract and lens implant surgery. As a senior citizen, I developed cataracts myself and needed to select an Eye Surgeon for my own visual rehabilitation requirements. Having practiced cataract and lens implant surgery for decades in Southern California, I personally know many qualified Eye Surgeons who would operate on my eyes and do a nice job. What I was looking for, however, was not only an Eye Surgeon with outstanding surgical talent - but also an Eye Surgeon who treats patients with genuine caring and respect, as I did for my own cataract and lens implant surgery patients. I found this Eye Surgeon - Patrick Yeh, MD. Doctor Yeh was referred by my wife's Family Doctor at UCLA Health, even though Doctor Yeh was in the Torrance (Cedars Sinai) group, rather than UCLA. Patrick Yeh, MD, is the most conscientious Eye Surgeon I have personally met, and now I have had both cataracts removed - AND I AM DELIGHTED! Doctor Yeh's practice is NOT a Medicare-cataract surgery mill - with such doctors churning through 80-100 patients a day. In my opinion, it is impossible to be truly thorough in these high-volume situations. Doctor Yeh's practice is medium-sized, and it is obvious that he likes it that way - as then he can thoroughly examine each patient, using not only his excellent medical/surgical skills, but using the very latest in ocular test equipment. I believe that in my own cataract and lens implant surgical practice that I was the most thorough surgeon I know (please don't take this as arrogance: patients told me this over and over) - but Doctor Yeh is even more thorough even than I was. This is very impressive to me, and I cannot overstate how very fortunate I am that I chose Doctor Yeh. Also, there is no such thing as cataract and lens implant surgery being a 'simple' procedure. This is marketing 'hype' to lure patients in the door. This is NOT a 'simple' procedure, and serious complications can occur, although it is not lengthy surgery, such as a heart transplant would be. Also again, many patients have co-existing retinal problems, such as macular degeneration, retinal wrinkling, macular edema, branch vein or branch artery occlusions, and other problems, such as glaucoma, which limit the final vision, even with perfectly executed small-incision cataract and lens implant surgery. Patients are sometimes in denial regarding what are called co-morbidities. And retinal problems are difficult to diagnose in advance of cataract surgery - because the view of the retina (the back of the eye) is obscured by the cloudiness of the cataract in front of the retina. It is like looking through a foggy windshield and trying to clearly read distant signs. In fact, denial is a normal human trait. For instance: Why would someone who has had a coronary bypass procedure and a bad heart frequently eat a double cheeseburger with extra bacon and extra cheese? Or 3 doughnuts? The reason can only be denial of the damage from this diet (tasty as it is!). Again, it is a normal human trait to be in denial of risk. And it has been demonstrated over and over - such as in very compelling videotaped risk discussions of patients undergoing very serious, life-threatening, heart surgery - that after the surgery, many patients will be adamant that the risks were never discussed. When shown the videotape of such discussions of risks, they are truly amazed, as they had complete amnesia for ANY discussion of risks. I myself have a little wrinkling of my left retina, and this affects my vision a little bit - again, because of my retinal pathology. The cataract surgery did not cause this! In summary, the cataracts are gone, and the surgery performed by Doctor Yeh was absolutely pristine! Doctor Patrick Yeh truly knows what he is doing, and is a very caring and deeply concerned human being (in a world where caring is all too often a missing ingredient). And if I you wish to discuss any of this with me, please send me an email to kemp.massengill@gmail.com, and be sure to put on the subject line : Regarding Patrick Yeh, MD. AS A CATARACT/LENS IMPLANT SURGEON MYSELF, I GIVE PATRICK YEH, MD, THE VERY HIGHEST 5-STAR RATING POSSIBLE. THANK YOU, DOCTOR YEH!!

You can tell he genuinely cares about helping his patients. I also had a great experience with his staff. It was my first visit, and while I was sitting on the sofa waiting for my appointment, a staff member, I believe her name was Bree, came over to apologize for the delay and explain why things were taking a little longer than usual. I appreciated her thoughtfulness. Sheryl was also kind and helpful with my insurance, handling everything in a respectful manner. A few days later, when I called about my prescription, Lisa took care of it and was so thorough and attentive. They treat you with respect and make you feel cared for.
