She is a class act, trust me you will be happy! read more

Dr Kaestner has been keeping my wrinkles at bay for years and I've recommended her to multiple friends. She has never been heavy handed with the Botox and I walk out of her office happy every time. So did my friends by the way. Anne her receptionist is lovely and always quick to respond when I'm looking to make an appointment. read more

Dr. Kaestner is the best. She always ensures that injections look natural and are placed well. I have never had any issues with numbness or feeling like I can't move any part of my face. She's very skilled and I highly recommend her. read more

Dr. Kaestner is extremely knowledgeable and excellent with her work in aesthetic injections. She has been doing it longer than anyone in the business I know of. I wouldn't go to anyone else for botox! If it is your first time trying out injections, she is great at walking through what you want to achieve and getting those results. I have referred many people to her and they are always happy with her work. read more

I've had Botox done by many injectors over the years. Dr Kaestner is simply the best!!! I trust her completely!

Writing this review 5-7 days after my Botox injections & I see 5 star results! First time Botox & Dr.Kaestner made my experience so pleasant. She explained & I learned what to expect. She was so delicate with my face, all I can say is I've found my Botox Expert. For all of you young women like me- I would recommend Dr.Kaestner look no where else. read more

You need Botox et al? She has it all! I always judge a plastic surgeon, or someone who administers these types of meds by how they look. This is one stunning woman. SHe has a great soft touch as well. Simply the best. read more

My experience with Joan was wonderful! I received Botox treatments and Joan knew exactly how to fix my problem areas without any pain. Results were fantastic! I highly recommend! read more

I gotta say, "What a pleasant experience." I haven't been to an eye doctor in many years so was anticipating getting prescription glasses, as I'm heavily dependent on readers for any kind of detail work or reading. Dr. Louie did a thorough, lengthy, exam, asked lots of questions, looked at my readers and told me I don't need prescription glasses. My eyes are just "over 40" but in great shape. (Huh?) Dr.Kaestner followed up with more questions and her own exam and pretty much assured me my eyes are aging just fine. Both doctors were attentive, seemed quite knowledgeable and clearly enjoyed their work. How delightful to be treated in such a positive, professional environment and not "sold" a thing. Yup, I'll be back. read more

I had to book an eye appointment since 1-800 Contacts caught me forging my old one. What can I say? I've never been a guy that didn't want to bend the rules. And it's not like they're painkillers, they're just contact lenses. So no one would have gotten killed :) Anyway, I have VPS insurance, and one of the closest optometrists in their network was Dr. Jeanne Louie. It was literally the best eye exam experience I ever had. The girls at the front desk were very professional, but also very personable...and downright hilarious. I moved to SD in 2003 from the east coast. Californians are usually too cool and self absorbed to joke around. Not these folks. It was great and made me feel right at home. From there I went in for the exam. Though I only wanted a contact prescription, I did have some burning and irritation that was bothering me. Dr Louie told me in a like 20 seconds what the problem was and how to fix it. In short, don't buy super cheap contact solution from Target. I was allergic to the preservatives. The exam rolled right along and she busted my chops about the forgery too. Not in a mean way, it was also very funny. She fixed my problem with the burning, gave me a very thorough exam, a new set of contacts, solution, and some eye drops to put in. All for a $5 copay. The kicker was that I got a year's supply of new contacts for $2.50. Wayyyyyy better than I was going to get with 1-800 Contacts. I think their deal was $50 for a 6 month supply. So I did things the right way, and it worked out. All for a grand total of 7.50. I spend more than that at McDonald's. Dr Louie and the girls were great, and I can't believe I'm saying this - but I'm looking forward to the next exam! We even joked about my Disney character credit card and goofy sunglasses inserts I had to wear since my pupils were dilated. It was like I was hanging out with friends the whole time. I'd definitely recommend this place to anyone. read more

Every single time I've had Botox in the past I get numbing around my right eye ... until now. I love Dr. Kaestner. She knows the right was to inject and it's virtually pain free. People keep asking me if I've had work done (I'm 47). I highly recommend her. read more

Meeting Doctors Louie and Kaestner yesterday for the first time was an absolutely distinct pleasure. They were amazingly cordial, considerate and attentive. They patiently explained the details of my examination and answered all of my questions. Their professionalism was outstanding. Their office atmosphere is tranquil, and the receptionists are extremely pleasant. (I am delighted that I chose to make the move from the Morris Eye Center.) Don Davidson Carlsbad read more

Go to Doctor Louie for all your eye care needs! I've been having some problem with my eyes and wanted to get in quickly. She was so sweet and stayed late to see me. She was so patient and never rushed me and spent quite a while going over all the issues. It turns out I'm just getting old, LOL, so my fears were unfounded. I was still appreciate of her time and expertise. She also suggested contacts for reading. The non-dominant eye contains a reading contact and the dominant eye contains nothing or a far vision contact. You brain adapts and allows you to see far with one eye and close with the other. I was skeptical but she talked me into it. I'm in my trial period, but it feels nice to be able to read without glasses. For now, I have a little nausea but she said that's to be expected while my body adapts. I would highly recommend Dr. Louie!!! read more

I had a sore left eye that just wouldn't go away. I booked an appt. with Dr. Kaestner and got in immediately. Turned out if was just an irritated eye that needed constant eye drops to soothe my dry eyes. But, if you want someone who is attentive, kind and professional look no further than Dr. Joan Kaestner. She made me feel at home and spent as much time with me as I wanted. Her warm approach to her patients is rare among doctors these days. You won't find a better doctor in San Diego. read more

Dr Jeanne Louie is excellent! She is extremely knowledgeable and takes as much time as needed to make sure you end out with the right prescription. Needless to say I was quite impressed and so glad I tried this office. Thanks Esther Nelson read more

Finally, in Encinitas an eye-care office that's as kind as it is professional. I've tried many in this area over the years, but Drs. Louie and Kaestner are the best. For me, eyes are so important and can be quite delicate (cataracts, macular degeneration, etc). The right correction, and the right medical attention can make a huge difference in keeping good eyesight. I'll bring my whole family here, where there's personal treatment, lens correction (contacts/glasses) and full medical care available. Everyone in the office is friendly and super-knowledgable. read more

Dr. Iyengar He is nothing short of a miracle worker in my humble opinion. Last October my lower eyelid was almost completely ripped off and my upper eyelid was sliced through from a surfing accident where the fin of my son's surfboard sliced up both of my eyelids of my left eye. His skilled surgery and confident reassurances and follow up during the recovery process have left me today with no visible difference from before this accident happened. I would recommend him to anyone! read more

I have been going to Joan Kaestner, M.D. now for about seven years (at least!) and would not think of going anywhere else for my Botox, Restylane or other services. Joan is concise, professional, listens well, and is an expert in her field. I always feel that with Joan and with Anne (her lovely assistant) I am in excellent hands and that they will put my needs ahead of any other consideration. It is nice to have such an excellent service available in North County. Thank you, Joan and Anne! -- Kathryn vM. read more

Dr. Kaestner is extremely professional and able to provide a wide array of services. She and her office have taken care of my eye sight needs for a number of years. More recently I have gone to her for Botox and consultation on the many treatments available to combat the effects of aging. She has training and knowledge that many doctors do not. She also truly has your needs and well being as her goal. She does not try to market any particular product or service --- which is such a refreshing approach. Her office staff reflects her warmth and caring attitude which is another plus. All of this service and reasonable prices too!! A combination that is rare these days and one I truly appreciate and recommend highly. read more

If you want real botox that lasts and takes effect shortly after administration this is the place for you. Expertly applied. I never feel hurried. My results are always excellent. read more

Dr. Kaestner is the best at all types of procedures! Thank you on behalf of the Rancho Santa Fe Unit of Rady Children's Hospital.

I have been going to Dr. Kaestner for over a decade. She is the best there is when it comes Botox, Restylane, Voluma......all the names I cannot remember. She is great administering injections but, most importantly, has that "woman's touch". She will guide you to better understand your needs and takes your budget into consideration. She and Annie are the best in terms of the office atmosphere, overall kindness, and attention to you....the patient. I couldn't recommend anyone more..... read more

I have been fortunate to never wear glasses until my mid 40's. Unfortunately that meant that I also hated glasses! I had struggled for years with getting a good contact lens prescription. No matter what my previous eye doctor put me in, I was always sacrificing something whether it be my distance, computer, or close vision. Two years ago, I had had it. I decided to find a female optometrist and came across the reviews for Dr. Louie. She listened to me and fitted me with mono vision contact lenses that have allowed me to see at all focal points, something my previous eye doctor told me could not be accomplished. I am THRILLED. This year I went into daily wear disposables and I could not be happier. No more solutions, no more cleaning. Just apply in the morning and toss in the evening. Being able to see clearly without having to hunt for a pair of readers to put over my contacts has been life changing. If you are hard to fit (or easy to fit) contact lens wearer and want someone who will listen, work with you, and is caring and compassionate, you definitely want to see Dr. Louie. As long as she is working there, I will be her patient for life. Thanks Dr. Louie read more

I LOVE Dr. Kaestner. I have been getting dysport and botox for the last 14 years. It lasts, and the results have always been great. I am always so nervous about needles and she makes me feel very comfortable and spends a lot of time with me and doesn't rush me in and out. I have also gotten an eye lift by her. My eyes look so natural. The eye lift was smooth and easy it was the best thing I've done yet! I look fresh and well rested still ,and i got the eye lift done over 12 years ago! I would highly recommend Dr. Kaestner if you want great results that last. read more
