My surgeon, Vladimir Yakopson, MD, is a world-class professional. The both facilities (Puyallup &…read moreAuburn, WA) were immaculate, organized, and maintained to the highest standard of cleanliness and excellence. Every member of the staff was exceptionally courteous, attentive, compassionate, and professional, creating an atmosphere of complete confidence and comfort from start to finish. As a board-certified surgeon and Army veteran, Dr. Yakopson exemplifies integrity, discipline, precision, and selfless service. His bedside manner was remarkable--he listened carefully, explained every detail thoroughly, and treated me with genuine respect and care throughout the entire process. The surgical outcome exceeded every expectation (20 duty stations in 30+ years I and my family have experienced a lot of doctors from Germany, Italy, to Hawaii. You name it we've been there). Dr. Yakopson demonstrated the qualities universally respected among elite surgeons: extraordinary precision, exceptional clinical judgment, meticulous surgical technique, outstanding attention to detail, and an unparalleled commitment to patient outcomes. His calm confidence and mastery in surgery are evident in every aspect of his work. Because of Dr. Yakopson, I am recovering with renewed mobility and confidence. I can say without hesitation that he is among the finest surgeons imaginable. I would trust him with my health again a thousand times over and recommend him to anyone seeking the absolute best in Ophthalmology care. A. Miller

I wanted to make sure the surgeon I visited had a breath of experience and training. After the experience I can truly saw I was impressed from my initial consult all the way through surgery and after. Dr Patel does fantastic work he is great at communicating, has a wonderful bedside manner and an amazing team of support staff. I wake up daily amazed that I can now read the clock across the room without glasses or contacts!

At that…read morefirst consultation, after the exam and the doctor's assessment, I started to ask a question when Dr Patel interrupted me saying: "I've only done about 20,000 of these. But go ahead, ask your question." As if I was offending him by having concerns. As if by asking questions I was somehow challenging his expertise, rather than acknowledging it. As if this wasn't exactly the right time and place to ask questions. A bit shocked by his dismissive comment, i initially thought I should simply leave and find a different doctor. Then I thought about the weeks I had to wait just to get this appointment, and starting that process all over again, and I swallowed my pride and simply responded, "No, never-mind." But I also knew then that I would eventually write a review in which I told prospective patients this story, in case anyone preferred not to be disregarded in this way. To be fair, I am pleased with the results of my surgery. I had researched Dr Patel and never doubted his skills. But I was offended by his manner at that initial consult and believe that patients deserve to be treated better.

I wish they'd just told me at the very beginning that they couldn't see me and I would have simply gone elsewhere. Save yourself the stress and avoid this group.

I WAS SO UPSET, Something prompted me to look online for revirews , and I only saw glowing stuff AT FIRST.

Then I saw negative reviews dating back since last year And 2019. I'm not sure if that makes me feel better, because I can now accept that it was NOT JUST ME , that generated her awful attitude .

One follow up appointment the day following each of the surgeries that I was able to drive myself to. After one week my eyesight is 20/15.

The Dr and his staff are great and all about taking care of you. No arrogance or attitude, just great service from a very friendly and knowledgeable staff.

Don't wait, just get it done as it will change your life. The surgery itself was painless, even afterwards and the next day. No IV's and no starving yourself the night before. The whole process took about 15 minutes.

The woman that was to help me with my trial lenses was rude and not helpful at all. I had to find out from a co-worker that they could be inside out... and then my wife showed me how to tell!! Well, I got 2 different strengths on the trial lenses which was tough to adjust to, and I got 7 lenses and told to throw them away at the end of each day. Okay, 7 lenses are not going to last very long especially when I have 2 eyes and that equates to 3 days and one left over! This was all on the 6th of January, it is now the 20th!!

These were all paid at time of service which supposedly includes a discount. I was told previously that follow ups were free, so the added $100 after being robbed for $1300 just to toss the existing expensive lens he had (unless I wanted to buy another frame $$) was the last straw. I imagine all of the good reviews are coming from people with insurance that aren't seeing the insanely inflated costs of everything they are billing for. Absolutely insane, will not be back
