I recently had cataract surgery performed by Dr. Shih. Before surgery members of the PAMF…read moreophthalmology team spent a bit over an hour doing measurements on my eyes. Then Dr. Shih spent some time reviewing those results before coming in to look at my eyes. Long discussion about pros and cons of different solutions, what I could expect from the surgery and next steps. I asked why she wanted to do surgery on each eye on different dates. Basic answer - it's rare that something goes wrong but if it does we don't want you to have two eyes possibly damaged. Made a lot of sense to me. I was back in the office a few days later to have my eyes measured with different machines to identify the best lens for my eyes. I was a bit apprehensive about the first surgery but it wasn't scary at all. Second eye done two weeks later. Follow up next day after each surgery and then again 1 week later. The results have been amazing. Everything is so much clearer, brighter and less yellow. So glad I had this done. Dr. Shih's skill and professionalism - along with her support team, were important to that success.

My primary care doctor wanted me to see an ophthalmologist and submitted a referral to PAMF. The…read morereferral specified that I should see an ophthalmologist. I've verified this with my doctors office. Upon receiving the referral, PAMF called me to say they saw the referral and would have me meet with a doctor here. I discovered upon check-in (several weeks later) that the doctor I'm waiting to see (it's already half an hour past my appointment start time and no one has even brought me into the appointment room) is an optometrist. The receptionist told me that PAMF doesn't let patients meet with ophthalmologists unless they're having surgery. I'm incredibly frustrated at the misleading appointment booking practices and the long wait as well. I took the afternoon off of work to come here and it's clear that not only do appointments not start anywhere near on time, but that the entire 1.5 hours I'm supposed to spend here once I'm seen is going to be a waste of both a lot of my time, and some unknown amount of money. I don't like getting my eyes poked and dilated for no reason and losing valuable vacation time to boot. It's incredibly dishonest for PAMF to book revenue for a visit that is literally not what the doctor ordered. The bait and switch attempt should require patient approval. If you've also been referred here for specialty care, beware and keep looking.

I would not recommend Dr. Shiuey unless you are already certain you need a specific eye procedure…read more Based on my experience, I would not go to him for a diagnosis. During my follow-up appointment for my eye infection, Dr. Shiuey told me that I would never be able to wear contact lenses again and that, if I didn't want to wear glasses, my only option was LASIK or PRK. I made it very clear that I was not interested in any type of eye surgery and that I was completely fine wearing glasses if necessary. Despite that, the conversation continued to focus on surgery rather than trying to determine the cause of my remaining symptoms. He even discussed the cost of LASIK, explaining that it would be around $5,000, after I had already told him I did not want eye surgery. At the end of the appointment, he handed me his associate's business card so I could schedule a LASIK consultation. This left me feeling that my preferences were not being respected. Because I was uncomfortable with the recommendation, I sought a second opinion from my regular eye doctor. She determined that my eye infection had completely healed and that my remaining discomfort was actually caused by allergies, not an active infection. She prescribed allergy eye drops and told me I could safely return to wearing contact lenses as long as I followed proper hygiene, including not sleeping or showering in them, cleaning my eyelids regularly, and using eye drops as needed. The difference between these two evaluations was significant. Instead of receiving an accurate diagnosis and treatment for my symptoms, I was told I could never wear contacts again and was repeatedly encouraged to consider elective eye surgery. Had I not sought a second opinion, I may have believed I had permanently lost the ability to wear contact lenses and that surgery was my only option. If you receive a permanent recommendation like "you can never wear contacts again" or are told that surgery is your only option, I strongly encourage you to seek a second opinion. I'm very glad I did.

Over the last 6-1/2 weeks, I had my LAL cataract surgery on both eyes, two adjustments in right eye and one adjustment in left eye, and did my second and final lock in two days ago.

My father saw Dr. Hu for an appointment that was scheduled as a glaucoma screening. He also reported a persistent foreign body sensation in his right eye that had been causing pain for some time. During the visit, Dr. Hu took a quick look and told him there was nothing, but she did not evert his eyelid to check under the lid. When my father asked for eye drops to help with the pain, Dr. Hu became impatient and said the appointment was "for glaucoma screening only." She added that she was an "ophthalmologist," that she had "a lot of patients," and instructed us to make a separate appointment with an optometrist for the foreign body concern. The glaucoma screening portion also felt rushed and poorly explained. Tests were performed without any clear explanation of what they were for, and the results were not interpreted for us. For example, when I asked about my father's eye pressure, Dr. Hu answered "17" but did not explain whether that number was normal or what it meant in context. We were ushered out of the exam room while we still had unanswered questions. My father mentioned that he had used artificial tears for five days without relief. Dr. Hu responded in a dismissive manner that he should use them for "weeks or months, not days," then handed us several printouts about dry eye and told us to read them and follow the steps before seeing an optometrist. Five days later, my father saw Dr. Catherine Wang at the same clinic. Dr. Wang examined him and removed the source of his foreign body sensation from his right eye. He felt immediate relief and has not had the painful sensation since. Based on this outcome, I am very disappointed that my father's discomfort lasted longer than it needed to, and that his concern was not addressed more carefully during the first visit. If my father had followed Dr. Hu's instruction to wait "weeks or months" before seeking further care, I cannot imagine how much worse his condition might have become. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend Dr. Wanda Hu, and I hope the clinic will review this incident to ensure future patients receive thorough examinations, clear explanations, and respectful care.
