I LOVE Family Tree Eye Care! I've been a patient for many years and before I came here, I used to go to the Mall to a National chain. I decided to try a local office and WOW I'm so glad I did! The whole tone of the office is different. Relaxed, professional, and friendly - genuinely glad you're there and happy to help. The front office are welcoming and a great way to start your visit. Dr Alma is awesome and a great resource of knowledge. And last week during my annual eye exam, I had the pleasure of meeting Ashley, who did my pre work. Another awesome addition to the team! I can't say enough great things about Family Tree and I tell all my friends about this awesome facility. Also! They've expanded their office in the time I've been there and it looks amazing! We all need to take care of our eyes and this place is the perfect spot to do so. I hope you check them out! Say hi to everyone for me! read more

Doctor has helped me alot with dry eye issues and a lot of my kids eye issues as well! He knows his stuff and he genuinely cares about his patients! Never feels rushed and listens to what you have to say! I definitely recommend this place ! read more

Great optometrist! No one else could explain the problem with my right eye, except Dr. Yamamoto. Staff is super nice, and the office is cleaner than a hospital! Highly recommended! read more

My first visit to Family Tree Eye Care was encourage by my daughter who takes my younger grandson for his exams and glasses. My examination by Dr Yamamoto was a sight changer it was determined I needed a cataract evolution. I was referred to Q Vision where I did qualify for both eyes to have cataract surgery. I had the surgeries completed if it wasn't for Dr Yamamoto's finding the cataracts I would still be seeing bright white as a dingy cream along with every colored dark and dull . The surgery corrected my nearsightedness I had. Thank you so much Dr Yamamoto for leading me to a beautiful bright world of color. Teri B read more

Disclaimer: this is my forst ever experience with an eye doctor for an eye exam!! Found Family Tree Eye Care through my insurance provider. Next I search here on yelp for reviews. After reading the ratings and reviews I called to make an appointment. I was able to get in the same day due to cancellations. Front office: friendly ladies that greeted and checked me in promptly! One of the ladies did the initial testings and fitting i guess (sorry can't remember what she said ‍) . Everything she did she explained (what she doing, what i need to do and what it's for) Office: bright, clean and very welcoming! Dr . Yamamoto had excellent chair side manners He was very professional and thorough and explained everything he was going to do and what it's for! He really made me feel at ease with the whole eye test including the last test (refraction i think) He knows eyes and had gave me lots of information on what's going on with my eyes and how to help me see better. He also encouraged questions. Overall: I highly recommend Dr. Yamamoto and his office! They seem to genuinely like seeing their patients and takes their time with each one. I never felt rushed. Bonus: before you even walk in the door mat says e ko mo mai (welcome in Hawaiian) Dr. Yamamoto picked up on my lingering "Hawaii" accent and asked if I was from the islands! Ofcourse I said yes! He grew up in Oahu! Brah! Now let's share some Aloha! read more

Family Tree Eye Care - Snapped a pic before anyone can see! - Optometrists Near Me - Gilbert, Arizona

I went in to see Dr. Yamamoto for my eyes that had been red for a little over a month. I had already seen two doctors prior to this visit and received the same answers from both, that they had no idea what was wrong with my eyes but they would prescribe me some drops. Dr. Yamamoto was by far the most thorough doctor I have ever been to in my life. He was extremely helpful and knowledgeable and even went to the point of creating a referral for me to get some other testing done because he was not able to conclude exactly what the problem was based off of the tests he performed. The ladies at the front desk were very kind to me as well. I highly recommend this business and will definitely be back if I have any future eye issues and have already told my family members to switch to Family Tree Eye Care.. read more

Very easy to secure an appointment . Latest technology for eye exams . Great options for frames .

this is the best eye care place i have ever been to! i first came here in 2022 after experiencing awful headaches from fatigued eyes. Dr. Yamamoto was super kind and caring after telling him i have not had great experiences with eye care places. he helped me find the prescription that was right for me and since then i haven't had any headaches! highly recommend!! read more

Absolutely recommend Family Tree Eye Care for your entire family. This is a wonderful place. Just one doctor offering highly personalized care, skilled staff, a bright and welcoming atmosphere, and you don't have to wait weeks for an appointment. Convenient location. Doctor diagnosed my eye problem when no one else had done so over several years; my vision has now been corrected. read more

Dr Yamamoto and the office staff were very attentive and kind to each one of their patients. He gave me the opportunity to shadow this practice without hesitation and I learned so much! He keeps up with the latest equipment and provides eyecare in an accommodating manner. He made everyone feel comfortable and expressed interest in their concerns and desires. I highly recommend this practice! read more

Everyone here is super friendly and very accommodating with your schedule and needs! Prices are reasonable as well, they'll work with you even if you don't carry vision or medical insurance. Can't recommend highly enough; especially when you can feel proud supporting a local Gilbert small business :) read more

I went in with two pairs of Ray-Ban glasses and they fixed both of them on the spot for no charge! As a result they have a new customer I scheduled an eye exam which I am much overdue for cannot believe how clean and wonderful the atmosphere is the customer service is beyond off the chart highly recommend!!!!! read more

My son was suffering from horrible pain in his eye and wouldn't even get out of bed. They got me in with a same day appointment and I cannot say enough good things about this office. The staff are all amazing and the doctor was God sent. He had my sons eye back to normal within two days. We had been to so many doctors previously that never figured out a solution but I am so blessed to have found this eye doctor through Yelp and that is why I had to leave a review! read more

My favorite new place for eye care! I won't go anywhere else. They are the same price as Costco, but kindness & service that can't be beat!! And the biggest bonus no huge crowds. I have a child that is super picky about frames. And these girls went above & beyond for him! The ordered several frames- called when they came in & we ran over there to see if he liked any of them & bingo he did!!! I feel so lucky we found this little hidden gem! read more

Dr. Yamamoto was fantastic. His office was able to schedule me a same day appointment and the doctor was very thorough and had excellent bedside manner. I recommend him to anyone that needs eyecare care. read more

Dr. Yamamoto and staff (there was a woman that helped us prior to seeing him, I wish I could remember her name, she was also amazing) provided true genuine care for my 6 year old during a very last minute appointment. I was truly impressed with the entire experience and super appreciative that they were able to accommodate us on such short notice but also took their time and were so thorough with the care provided for my son. So glad to have found this office! read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Yamamoto for over 2 years now and have really enjoyed his attention to detail and how friendly his staff is! The office is clean and welcoming. I recommend FTEC to everyone! read more

Dr Yamamoto was absolutely a dream today!! He took care of my 10 year old daughters emergency eye visit with such thoroughness & grace! He found the piece stuck under her eyelid & it wasn't a traumatic experience, he just did his steps smoothly and talked to my daughter very sincerely and with compassion. I had an eye injury as a child and I was so scared to go to this visit alone with her as my husband was an hour away at work, I know my experience as a child was a traumatic one and I would not hesitate to bring your family/children to this doctor as he knows what he is doing and the steps that need to be taken!!!! He is the BEST eye doctor we have ever had, hands down!!! Thank you also to the staff for getting us practically right in, it's scary to get a call from the school that something is stuck in your child's eye--you all helped my anxiety and ultimately my child's as well making everything so smooth!!! read more

Great service, excellent care, and a very knowledgeable staff. It was very easy from the first phone call. I was able to make a same day appointment, get my prescription and glasses picked out. Doc was great and took his time to explain a number of different things to me. Couldn't have asked for more. Thank you! read more

Dr Yamamoto has been taking care of my eyes for years. He had previously been at Arizona's Vision, so when I called for an appointment and learned he went out on his own I was disappointed as I enjoyed all my experiences there. Not to worry, the doc branched out on his own and started Family Tree. I had the opportunity to get checked out in his new space. Same great doctor, in a new modern open office. I'll miss Joe and Sandy at AZ Vision, but I am confident Dr Yamamoto and his new staff have me covered at Family Tree Eye Care! read more

The staff is so friendly. Their hours work with people who can't always go to midday appointments. The optometrist is so awesome, he worked with me on finding the perfect contact lens to fit my eyes. They have top tier technology. If you're looking for an eye doctor in the Gilbert area. This is your place. I moved to Mesa and still make the 30 minute drive over here because they are fantastic. read more

I have always been terrified of going to the eye doctor. The puff of air, dilation drops...I'd rather get a shot! This was by far the BEST experience I've ever had! You can choose to do images instead of dilation drops (not covered by insurance but inexpensive) and there was a different machine instead of the puff! Dr. Yamamoto was amazing with my kids and took his time with our exams. We even learned some cool facts and had fun. I will be recommending this practice to EVERYONE! read more

Dr Yamamoto, eye doctor in Gilbert, and his staff were so kind and easy to work with. Very easy to talk too and explained everything and every test as it happened. He saw my children as well and is great with kids!! Dr. Yamamoto knows his stuff. I highly recommend him for any of your eye care needs. read more

I can't say enough good things about Family Tree Eye Care! I was so happy to find Dr. Alma Yamamoto, O.D. after he left his previous eye care facility to open his own location. His two amazing assistants, Christina R. and Ana L. are also always wonderful to work with time and time again. I have mutiple examples of just how good this team is with their personalized care every time. One example happened during the pandemic when I woke with pink eye and my regular doctor couldn't fit me in and it was a Friday. I worried about waiting until Monday to see her and I didn't want to go to an urgent care during the height of the local Covid infections (summer of 2020), so I dialed the Family Tree after hours line and Dr. Yamamoto picked right up...not an answering service. Dr. Y immediately remembered me by my name and had me text him pictures of my eye. Within two hours...on a Friday night...my eye drops were ready for pick up from the drug store! I was so appreciative! Another above-and-beyond example of how caring and wonderful Family Tree Eye Care happened when my adult son was seeing an increased amount of floaters...not something to ignore. My son is a sports reporter and had a 10 day trip scheduled to cover MLB baseball so Christina and Dr. Y fit him in last minute to be seen. I flew my son in from his home in LA and we went straight to Family Tree, all on the same day! What a relief to know that my son's eye were OK...and he finally got glasses, which he has needed for a while. Again and again, Family Tree Eye Care's attention to detail and caring team (who are all good listeners) set them apart from other eye care teams...these guys are the best in the Valley and because of that, we drive out of our way to see Dr. Y and team at Family Tree Eye Care. I truly can't sing their praises loud enough! read more

Family Tree Eye Care is the best experience I've had with an eye care center. Dr. Alma Yamamoto is very thorough and yet exceptionally personable. His staff members are very kind and professional. They were willing to customize my new glasses to my complete satisfaction. I give Family Tree Eye Care my highest recommendation. read more

Ordered glasses four months ago after exam After three attempts still can't get prescription lenses correct (they found the first error without my even trying them on). They never call; have now had my glasses since dec 31. I have used Dr. Yamamoto many times when he was in a different practice. He may be skilled but doesn't appear to know how to run a business read more

Dr. Yamamoto and his team are absolutely fantastic. He is extremely personable and truly has his patients' best interest at heart. I told my husband that if he had to wear glasses, he has to see Dr. Yamamoto! I was expecting your typical eye exam with your typical eye doctor but the office was so friendly, welcoming (not to mention super clean), and felt like you joined a family. Super excited to have found Family Tree! read more

Dr. Yamamoto and his staff are the best! I used to drive from Gilbert to Ahwatukee just to see them. Now they are just around the corner. It's worth the trip either way. read more
