    I absolutely love this office! I was referred by my doctor to come here & was a bit nervous but right when I arrived I was greeted and welcomed by the staff. The girls in the front (Yolanda and Irene) are amazing. So personable. Very polite & welcoming! I really appreciated their kindness. They treated every patient before and after me the same. (That's not something you see everyday) The office is clean and has a good selection of glasses. Of course you are able to get different frames else where if the selection isn't what you want but overall it's a great place. I arrived right on time and filled out some quick paperwork. I then took three quick tests with Yolanda & she walked me through them and let me know what to expect. (I appreciated this. Some offices won't even let you know what you're doing or why) She was extremely thorough. My eye exam was quick and Dr.Lee made me very comfortable. Thank you Dr.Lee I will be back! This office is great! Thank you to Yolanda & Irene for providing such great service. And best of all- once I get my glasses I will be able to see again So thank you to the entire office! Don't see why anyone wouldn't like this place. It is amazing!

    This place was great for an eye exam. I was in within 20 mins of my appointment. Try to book an…read moreappointment at least a week in advance. They take Medicaid vision insurance but the glasses will come in after a month or two according to the last who works with the glasses so make sure to order the glasses early. Dr. Le was very nice and through. She was quick and efficient at her job but more importantly was nice and easy going. She did not make me feel uncomfortable. She also made sure to describe my eye health to me and how to keep its health up. She also told me at what age my eyes might start having trouble.

    I want to be clear that this review is not about the doctors. Dr. Suk have been excellent, and I…read moretruly appreciate the care he have provided. Unfortunately, my experience with the front desk staff named Susanna at the Downey office has been very disappointing. On two consecutive days, I had interactions with the same staff member, Susanna, and both experiences left me feeling dismissed and disrespected. The first time, I called with a simple question about the insurance authorization process for an upcoming procedure because I genuinely didn't know how it worked. Instead of politely explaining the process, I was spoken to in a rude, impatient tone that made me feel as though I shouldn't have asked the question. The following day, I called to ask if my appointment could be moved from 9:40 AM to an earlier 8:30 AM slot because I was concerned about Friday morning traffic. I was immediately told there was no availability. I could totally tell that she wasn't checking. So I called the Arcadia call center just a few minutes later, they found the 8:30 AM appointment without any problem and changed it for me. When I called the Downey office back Susanna to ask about the discrepancy, I received different explanations, "Maybe someone just canceled it" and instead of a sincere apology, I was told, "My bad." Everyone can make mistakes. That wasn't what upset me the most. It was the repeated dismissive attitude, lack of professionalism, and feeling that my concerns as a patient were not taken seriously. I hope management addresses this because the doctors provide excellent care, and patients deserve to be treated with the same level of courtesy and respect by the front office staff

    I've been coming to Total Vision Optometry for years. The staff is always welcoming and helpful. I…read morewould like to say that my last experience, about a week ago, was the best I've had there. Typically, I was use to waiting a bit to be seen and to pick my frames. This time, I was called in right away and luckily the last staff member saved the frame style into my profile so that saved a bunch of time. My appointment was for 5p, they actually accommodated for an earlier 3pm visit since I was already in the area. I went with a pair of Dita frames and they called me to tell me they were ready in about a week. Overall, they get 5 stars from me because they have the speed of service down now and it doesn't feel like I'm spending too much time there. The frames were perfect as well.

    Dr. Sanchez is polite enough however clarified he is incapable of treating my needs of vision care…read more As a result, he offered me a full refund of my glasses and contacts. However, please note that he did not examine me with the second pair of contacts that he had me try on after I stated that those were not as good as the ones he previously prescribed. This lack of willingness to work with patients is highly disappointing when needing care. He simply didn't want to take the time. What is surprising is that he and the staff deleted my medical file WITHOUT my consent. Under California law this is illegal!! I believe the refund is a tactic of his to not tie him to my care. Please do not go to him if you have even the slightest notion of complexity. The review has 0 stars.
