Ethel P.

So easy to work with - many helpful ppl (from reception desk to doctor to optician). Made appointment for 2 days later. Used my VSP insurance & got glasses / lenses for ~ $140 total. 10/10 recommend!

New glasses!

Dr. Nakagawa has been an absolute saint. My son has been dealing with a horrible eye trauma. He…read morecouldn't see, the eye was supremely red and irritated, to the point where the only relief he could find was being in a totally dark room with sunglasses on. We went to see Dr. Nakagawa and were immediately given hope. He took a look as best he could since my son was in so much pain he could barely stand to open his eye. He felt fairly certain that my son had something called iritis - which is where the actual iris of the eye becomes swollen and inflamed. It's not a very common condition but my oldest son has it too. He prescribed drops and patiently explained his findings to us and asked to see him again the following week. Things have literally been looking better and better for my son under Dr. Nakagawa's care, and we have been doing weekly follow-ups until his ey completely returns to normal. The Dr. explained that it is a chronic condition with genetic markers that my son will probably have to deal with for his entire life, but that it can be managed with different eyedrops. Every time we visit, he is kind, compassionate and patient, and takes the time to thoroughly explain everything. Grateful to have found this wonderful doctor!

If you are looking for an eye doctor who truly sees you and not just a patient on a schedule, Dr…read more Nakagawa is a wonderful gift. My family--my mom, my husband, my brother, and myself--all trust him completely with our vision. What sets Dr. Nakagawa apart is his genuine, deeply caring heart. From the moment you walk in, you feel an immediate sense of peace and ease. He never rushes; instead, he gives us his full time and attention, sharing a warmth that immediately settles your heart. He truly treats us just like family. We all love him, especially my mom, who always feels so safe and cared for in his hands. It is rare to find a doctor who combines such professional excellence with a truly humble, comforting spirit. We are so grateful for his dedication and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a gentle, thorough exam, and compassionate doctor.

Now, this review is not about their Optometry team, they might be great, I have no idea. I went in with a prescription for 3 glasses, needing 5 total. There selection was pretty good, not great, but I can't see so I really needed these glasses. They are a tad pricey, but that was also okay, as they promised me these glasses would be ready in a week and a half. I said, I'll give you two weeks, can you do it. I can't drive, I can't read. They promised that 1 and a half weeks would be plenty of time. Right. Almost a month later I called them and I got the "we were just about to call you" line, which you know is always false. They said my last pair just came in. I asked why they had not called when the first pair came in as I was very clear I could not drive or read. I got silence. I went in to get my glasses and waited close to 20 minutes Just for them to be fitted and put in a case. Now when I finally saw someone she was great, thus the 3 and not a 1 rating. She took care to fit the glasses right and put them all in cases--not the cases I thought I would have like the ones with the name of these expensive designer glasses I bought, but whatever. I won't be back. Don't make promises you can't keep, if there is an issue call the customer and don't make them call you, because having my husband drive me around is just so much fun and not at all a waste if his workday.

Glad the first time I'm getting glasses was with these nice people. All the staff were really…read morehelpful and patient with me while looking for frames that fit. Dr Zelaya was patient and thorough in explaining everything - even with my clockwork orange induced, eye phobia. It's going to take a minute to get used to wearing glasses but I'll be a regular here.

Initial Review 3/5 -…read more Docs are great - professional, thorough, on time. The sales staff? I flat out told the guy I wanted the same glasses - classic Ray Ban Wayfarers in matte black - I already had and they made for me a couple years earlier. He said they no longer made them in matte black. So I asked for them in glossy. He spent another 20 minutes digging around and said they no longer made those either. Now, this set my spider sense off because Ray Ban not making classic Wayfarers is like McDonald's no longer serving hamburgers. So I politely say I'll look around and get back to them. I leave, spend two minutes on the Ray Ban website, and find the exact glasses I was asking for. I call the office back, get another sales rep, and tell him I was just in and wanted to order these glasses. He finds them instantly - same number that was on the glasses I showed the original rep. The new guy tells me I'll have to work with the original salesman - the guy who didn't really know what he was doing - and I'm kinda like "Do I have to?" He politely chuckles and assures me I'll hear back from the other guy within the day. Two days later and I never heard a peep. Get your eyes checked there but buy your glasses elsewhere. I practically spoon fed the guy a sale and couldn't even a call back. Disappointing. Updated Review 4/5 - I was contacted by Dr. Zelaya less than 24 hours after posting this review to make this situation right. I was given a quote for the order, clear communication, and assured that the consumer service issue would be addressed with the staff. I decided to order my third pair of glasses through their office.
