I was there for a very specific single reason - referred by my optometrist to have Dr Kim look at a stye to assess if it needed treatment. Instead I was made to complete numerous pages of unrelated paperwork by the front desk (despite all my data in the system being current)...& then pushed to have a full vision exam/assessment (despite not being there for that purpose and just recently having had one by my outside optometrist). The assistant attempting to proceed with the latter was very irritated when I refused & stormed off. Dr Kim, who has zero bedside manner & mandates you wear a mask to see him, completed his analysis of my 8 week long stye in about 30 seconds with no advice. I will not be back.

Dr. Cox is professional in everything she does. I had both an upper blepharoplasty and a lower…read moreblepharoplasty with her separately. The upper blepharoplasty was performed under local anesthetic and felt effortless! I have recommended Dr. Cox and the procedure to many of my friends who are apprehensive about surgery. The lower blepharoplasty required general anesthesia, which I was dreading, but everything worked out like magic. I woke up from the anesthesia as if I were emerging from a nap. After the bruising subsided in about two weeks, I noticed a significant change--from my eyes looking tired and droopy to appearing energetic and youthful. I'm thrilled with the results and would recommend (and have recommended) Dr. Cox to anyone considering eye surgery. She is the best!

She clearly knows all the tricks of how to put a baby at ease, and she also moved through the appointment efficiently which I appreciated. She explained everything in easy terms for us, instead of medical jargon. I wish all doctors were this wonderful to interact with.

A Life-Changing Experience…read more I recently underwent cataract surgery with Dr. Najafi where she expertly replaced my cataracts with intraocular lenses (IOLs). I will admit I was hesitate and concerned about anything relating to my eyes. I have had other surgeries but anything to do with my eyes are different. Dr. Najafi is very conservative. She did surgery and replaced my cataract with an IOL in the first eye. We then waited over 2 weeks to determine the results...which were excellent. Then we replaced the cataract with and IOL in the 2nd eye...with the same excellent results. I couldn't be happier. From the very first consultation to the post-operative follow-ups, Dr. Najafi and her amazing team made me feel informed, comfortable and genuinely cared for. The entire process was smooth and reassuring. Dr. Najafi took the time to explain every step, answer all my questions, and ensure that I felt at ease throughout the procedure. Her attention to detail and expertise truly shone through, and the improvement in my vision has been nothing short of life-changing. I can now drive at night! Her professionalism, compassion and skill have given me a new lease on life, and for that, I am forever grateful to Dr. Najafi, for giving me the gift of clear vision! Thank You, Dr. Najafi
