    Dr. George is a very thorough and professional opthamologist. I trust his judgment and counsel.

    I was a patient of Dr. Singh for five years, but my experience with his office ended on an…read moreextremely disappointing note. After questioning an extra charge for an eye exam during a full exam, I was abruptly dropped as a patient. Apparently, Dr. Singh does not believe in prioritizing patient care over billing disputes. When this happened, I repeatedly requested my medical records, but his office refused to provide them. Recently, I began experiencing severe pain behind my eyes and needed either to see Dr. Singh or obtain my records so I could go elsewhere. After multiple calls, it took them 10 days to respond--only to tell me that Dr. Singh still refused to see me. However, they finally decided to release my medical records after all this unnecessary back-and-forth. It is appalling that a doctor would allow his ego to interfere with patient care to this extent. A simple misunderstanding about billing should not have resulted in being dismissed as a patient, especially when I made an effort to move past it. If you want a doctor who can drop you on a whim, ignore your medical needs, and delay providing essential records, then Dr. Singh might be the right choice. Otherwise, I strongly suggest finding a physician who actually prioritizes patient health over personal grievances.

    The office overbooks patients. I arrived 8 minutes early for an 11:30AM appointment. The waiting…read moreroom had three patients who were sequentially called in to the treatment area. An older couple arrvied at 11:50AM and were called in at noon. 30+ minutes waiting, still not called in - that was it! I informed the front desk that I was leaving. They certainly wasted my time. Wish I could ding them for $50.

    The staff is the biggest joke I have ever encountered…read more FIRST They provided me with the wrong appointment time. Told me 2 pm and when I arrived said it wasn't until 2:45. SECOND I sat and waited until my 2:45 time because I didn't want to reschedule, but I didn't get seen until 3:30. What is the point of making an appointment when you don't even get seen for 45 minutes? THIRD the nurse was rude to me and got mad at me for not bringing in my contact lenses when I was never told to bring them in. And LAST the front desk girl is rude as well. Has a bad attitude that needs to leave her personal issues at home. And then I got an email 2 days late saying I missed my appointment?? What the heck are they running over there? I will NOT be coming back to that office and I do not recommend this place to anyone. It's a real shame because Dr. Yeh is actually a good and thorough doctor.

    Dr Yeh is definitively intelligent, knowledgeable, methodical and detailed about his visits. He…read moretakes the time w each patient. Very straightforward also. I made a last minute appointment and waited about an hour. I couldn't be too upset though since I was new and they did their best to fit me in. The followup was more-so on time. Could the front desk stand to be more professional and perhaps put away the candy crush app on her phone and be a bit more in tune with the practice? Yes! But, that shouldn't be a reflection on Dr Yeh's services. Good help is hard to find. Just my two cents. I'd recommend his practice based on the service. Also great he was conveniently located and accepted my insurance. The office is also really nice and well kept. Hope that helps with your decision on the practice. I don't think the 1-stars are a proper representation of his practice overall.

    I don't review often but wanted to add one here because both my wife and I made eye exam…read moreappointments this year, (it was time) and after going through the initial eye tests, checks and pictures (without dilation), we then saw Gabriela Miller, O.D. for review, discussion and additional testing. We were both happy with what she did, and how everything was explained clearly. Prescription eyewear selection followed and that was fairly smooth as well. I thought the frames selection was somewhat limited but I don't have anything to compare to currently. Overall happy with everything, and will return in the future.

    Dr. Rubin is an amazing ophthalmologist whom I've been seeing for eye exams for many years…read more However, in the last couple of years, there have been changes in the office and it starts to feel different. I went in again and there was this one lady at the front desk who was extremely rude and unprofessional. When I approached the front desk to request a printout of my contact lens prescription as suggested by Dr. Rubin, she insisted I had to pay for both a contact lens exam and a glasses exam, even though I hadn't requested a glasses exam, and my glasses prescription was still valid from four months ago. I paid, but requested explanations. Despite explaining my insurance coverage and situation, she remained adamant, refusing to listen and even declined to provide my prescription print out, citing distraction from billing inquiries. She then callously added, "You contact your insurance. If nothing else I can help you. You can be out of here." When I suggested Dr. Rubin come out to explain, the lady at the front desk callously retorted, "Dr. Rubin doesn't own the business. It is what it is; you have to pay for two exams." This further added to my disappointment and frustration, as it seemed to dismiss my concerns entirely. Feeling frustrated and disappointed, I requested Dr. Rubin's presence myself, and he and another front desk staff member clarified the billing procedure and explained changes in my insurance policy. Despite this, I still questioned the necessity of double exams, especially given the recent glasses exam. While Dr. Rubin is excellent, the behavior of one team member left me feeling disrespected and dismissed, tarnishing the overall experience.
