My parents are under their care for years. Very effective team. We deply appreciate Dr. Han and Dr. Liu for their professional services. Dr. Han is the best eye surgeon we met. Great skills and detailed after surgery caring. In addition, the lady Yesenia in the Optical Department is a great plus for the facility. My father has prism, and often need adjustment for his glasses. Yesenia has been patient and helpful. She has a Great taste to pick up the glasses frame meeting my father's expectations, very thoughtful. read more

The (I think she was the manager, I think she is called Ruth) lady at the front desk (who answers calls) was rude (not the other nice ladies). She literally got mad at me for not knowing the difference between ophthalmology and optometry. I'm sorry, but I am a patient who has not gone there before, so I have no knowledge of all this. She hung up on me after all the time I waited for her after putting me on hold. Hopefully that lady gets fired because that is no way to treat a person, much less a client, who has only been respectful. She was so condescending and unprofessional. She also had commentary on the fact that I had no insurance (maybe I don't know, just give me the appointment and save us both time because no one cares about your commentary). It cost $205 in case you are wondering for a first time visit (w/o insurance). read more

Update: 03/28/22 Okay first off, this is not for Dr. taban. His eye exams are always efficient and professional. This updated 2 stars is for the fee of a record request which I (required for application to graduate school) have already half way filled out. I received an eye exam about 2 weeks ago so it was recent. I think $15 is a bit excessive as quoted over the phone before I went. Not only that, Diana, the person who helped at the front desk said the fee was $21 dollars when I came in person. I had to tell her it was 15 to which she asked who I spoke to on the phone and it was corrected to 15. I was worried that there isn't a set policy hence I asked for a receipt to keep everything official, paper trail, and book keeping purposes. I understand there is a fee for the doctor to take his time to fill out but it should be a more reasonable $5. 15 dollars is excessive for something that could be gotten from a patient portal but include the doctors signature. I also had a more extensive medical request form for my dental and primary care doctor but none of them charged a fee. There is also a lack of communication WITHIN the office as everyone is confused when I first came and ask even though I called beforehand. I had to explain myself about 3 times every time I was told to go to another person. I'm just including this review in here to keep everyone ACCOUNTABLE and for FULL TRANSPARENCY of the office as well as leaving a paper trail of where funds are going. read more

Dr. Taban is the best. He's very knowledgeable, professional and did my eye surgery. Thank you Sir.

the doctors and staff except one person, I think is their manager/supervisor named ruth? is amazing. ruth is terrible. she is rude and i overheard her yelling and was very condescending to the staff. not sure if she is the best to run the place as I a patient, do not feel safe. read more

OCO is a professional Team who has their processes well tuned. Dr. Taban was my doctor for both the left and right eyes. From the first appointment until the final visit, the office, and nurses work closely with the Medical Staff and surgeons. OCO has a process that is defined, professional, and delivers results. They use technology to its fullest by reminding you via text for appointments, scheduling all pre-op, outside doctor visits, pharmacy call ins for prescriptions, your day of surgery, and all follow-ups. I am very happy with the outcome of the surgeries. I now enjoy the vision of a teenager. Great people who are friendly and supportive. read more

We have been getting treatment from this center over 9 years, they are the best team with very professional and top doctors.

Dr. Liu did a great job on both of my cataract eyes! Anesthesiologists and staffs were all professional and caring. I would highly recommend Orange County Opthalmology!!! read more

I have been going to Dr Taban for years. He really takes the time to answer any and all questions completely and plainly. I have recommended him to many friends and family whole heartedly. He is a great eye roc- gentle, patient, thorough, and kind hearted. The staff are also top notch- easy to deal with, have a customer friendly system, and are also kind and patient. Overall- go see Dr Taban! He rocks! read more

When I first coming coming here things were better. Now it's rotten. I was told that no one but the patient could be in the waiting room despite groups of patients with entourages read more

There is a reason why this medical office has a 3.5 stars. I needed an emergency refill to hold me over until we can schedule an appointment, but the office doesn't care. If they can't even do something this simple, especially when there's an urgent matter, what type of care do you think they'll give? What was the point of establishing care when I had told them there's a chance in the future I'll need the medication asap. It is not illegal to provide a simple 30 days supply while the medical office requests for an authorization for to me to be seen. Absolutely BS... read more

It was very difficult in getting a referral than making an appointment, however my family doctor's office and insurance and is also to blame for that. The appointment was pretty fast as in later on that week, however the medical assistant asked me some rather personal questions than I'd rather not answer like, "Are you employed?" what does that have to do with anything? Dr. Boyce was an older ophthalmologist but very nice person. He answered all of my questions and didn't push me into doing the surgery for profits as some other places might do. Though I was a bit concerned about coming in for multiple visits when it should really be done in one. I also saw Dr. Roh and he seemed nice and professional, however he is only there 2 days a week so time is very limited for him. I also got some pushiness from him to do the surgery, which kind of made me feel uncomfortable. So in the end, it was determined that I didn't need any retina surgery done so I thought that was the end of that but he wanted me to make another appointment with him, what? If I didn't need any retina work done than why am I making another appointment with him? He never explained why, though I'm pretty sure it was profit driven and I opted not to. In the end, it's difficult to find a good ophthalmologist who puts patients first over profits. Make sure you get a 2nd opinion or even 3rd to determine if a surgery is right for you. read more

Orange County Opthalmology - Waiting area chairs, seems a bit old. - Laser Eye Surgery/Lasik Near Me - Garden Grove, California

I'm still young in my 40s but already diagnosed with advanced glaucoma a few years ago. Earlier this year even max eye drops cannot control my pressures and my original ophthalmologist referred me to Dr. Taban. and He did surgery on my eyes and my pressure is now in the low teens! He's very experienced and very patient to answer any questions I have. With him I know my eyes are in the good hands! Also Nadia and Ruth are very helpful, they helped me to make surgery appointments in time and wrote down all the details I need to follow. Without a doubt I will stick with them for all my following eye needs! read more

The doctors here are doing great job, the only thing I would like to add it's that they should implement the "no cellphone policy" at the reception, my mom is coming after having her Dialisis and it was really irritating hear other patient talking about her personal life for almost 20 minutes and when I approached to the receptionist she just said that there was nothing they can do since their cellphone poly only applies to no cellphone use in the rooms, I think this is ridiculous since it's a medical office. read more

Good service,great staff.recomened to everyone. The technician knew what she was doing gave me a more than normal I exam than I've ever had before I recommend this place to everyone professional. read more

Orange County Opthalmology - These are the glasses I ordered. - Laser Eye Surgery/Lasik Near Me - Garden Grove, California

I have had surgery on both my eyes and they have healed just fine so I would like to thank Dr. Liu for they excellent job that he has done.

This week my husband was seen by Dr. Norman Liu for a foreign body in his eye. This was our first visit to this office. The front office staff was very friendly, helpful and accommodating. Dr. Liu was very professional and has a great personality. He took time with my husband and took care of his issue with precision and care! We will now be patients here permanently!! We would highly recommend Orange County Ophthalmology to our family and friends!!! read more

Dr. Ryan Taban and his team did excellent work during my two cataract surgeries. The results of the surgeries have been great! My highest compliments to Dr. Taban and his team!! read more

It's hard to do reviews for medical groups. Are you reviewing the front office staff, the nurses, the facilities, or the doctors? The facility is in the 4th floor of a dingy building filled with medical offices. The waiting room has old worn chairs and low cruddy fluorescent lighting; the bathroom may not have TP or be very clean. I've never been seen on time except for a 7:15 surgery, even when I'm supposedly the first appointment of the day. On my pre-op appointment, it was 40 minutes before I was seen because the front desk "forgot" to notify the nurse. Neither the nurse nor front staff apologized. Your time is less important theirs in the world of medicine divorced from customer service ideas. On the medical front, Dr. Samimi is top-notch. He has a degree from the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA and completed his ophthalmology residency at the University of Miami's Bascom Palmer Eye Institute. Dr. Samimi currently teaches oculofacial plastic surgery as a clinical instructor at the Keck School of Medicine at USC. He answers all the questions you have clearly and welcomes patients with an informed interest in their procedures. He's approachable and clear in his explanations of procedures. I felt fortunate to have a doctor of his caliber available to see me. Again, you'll probably never have an appointment that is on time here. The horrible TV in the waiting room blares religious propaganda. Check back in every 30 minutes to minimize your chances of being forgotten. Allow 1 hour of waiting time plus appt time if you're planning your day because you work or have other things to do besides waiting in an ugly medical office. read more

Everyone is always so nice and friendly. I was seeing a new doctor because Dr Boyce has retired and I saw a Dr Taban. He was was friendly and explained everything thoroughly and informed me that I was able to have a full exam to get new lenses and frames. Thanks so much and I will be back for that appointment. read more

I've been coming here for almost a year and have always been impressed with the efficiency of this large practice (3 doctors). From the friendly receptionist Gnok to the highly qualifued Dr. Boyce, they clear their full waiting room with reasonable speed. The parking lot, shared with Garden Grove Hoapital has signs showing you must pay the parking fee, but don't worry and don't pay (unless you are here for an extended period). The signs don't tell you about the grace period which I think is 2 hours. Highly recommended. read more

The wait time was super long for the doctor to tell me to come back! Very disappointing

This place is the best very friendly and professional doctor very professiona how you doing recommend this place to anyone with problem on their eyes or just to check up this is the where is best place to go read more

Came 1stt time this Doctor. My wife had a appointment at 10:30. Took us in side around 10:45. Alexa is beyond and above very helpful. But wait time in room is almost two hours. I thinks they can do better than this. Looks like it pure business than seeing a patient. read more

Older building for sure, but the service has always been great to me. The front desk to the medical assistants, appointment scheduler and doctors. I guess a lot of people have bad experiences because of they have to deal with insurance and whatnot. Also, signs say you have to pay for parking but the front desk says you don't have to. Just park normally and go in. If they give you a ticket, bring it up to the front desk. That's what I'm told. I've been here 5x in 2019 and never had an issue with parking. read more

I was a first-time patient two days ago. I felt very well cared for, and I felt like Dr. Taban really made time to listen to any of my concerns and questions, which I very much appreciated. I highly recommend Dr. Taban. read more

Very satisfied with the efficient work of their staff and the ophthalmologist, in particular.

First time here and I have an appointment with Dr. Taban. I have glaucoma and have to check every 4 months to check my eye pressure. My previous ophthalmologist didn't accept my insurance. I am so glad Dr. Taban accepted my insurance. He is such a caring person and made me feel so comfortable. I would highly recommend him. read more

Never go back there they wanted me to go back to charge me more money call my insurance company and they told I didn't need a referral. Lies

I called to make my appointment I spoke to Samantha she was so sweet and very helpful with me! She was able to provide with me with some appointment information that I needed to know! Thank you very much read more

It's hard to even put one star. Front office are insensitive especially the office manager Ruth. She has no empathy. It's bad enough you have to wait long but because they can't figure out how insurance works the patient has to suffer and wait even longer. You can't see the Doctor until they all meet with Ruth and figure out what to do. They say I'm impatient. Well after waiting long because they can't figure out something I should not be penalized. Then Ruth said she will ask the doctor to send me home. Ruth does not even know my condition. She's a manager for Walmart material. Update: Not sure yet what to put. Love Metra and Arianna. Visit yesterday was good news but new issues arose. will come back to this read more

Waited for 1hr after appointment time. When confronted they simply said , you will be in next as i sat there and watched 3 other people who came after got in first. Some of the MA were rude to patient. I talked to the manager and she apologized but I am not coming back. read more

i'm happy with this place after 3 visits. The wait wasn't bad. They take patients as Urgent walk in if you are in pain. making sure call them first. The only thing they need to care is wipe clean the equipment after each use at least the chin and forehead part. read more

Dr Liu was great, friendly, easy to talk with. He gave me excellent advice. The wait time was very little. The office team was nice and they took care of everything very quickly. read more

I waited over an hour past my appointment time while I watched others come in after me be seen first. Their staff are so loud I heard every detail about these other patients. Patient confidentiality does not exist here! Each of them had higher paying insurances than me....expalains why they didn't want to waste time with me. Their staff are rude and condescending. read more

I have only had one eye operation, so I cannot compare this to any other Dr, but what I can say is that I could have had a much better experience elsewhere. Do your homework. After my cataract surgery early September, my eye is tender, and something just doesn't feel right. Now that they have their money, they are done with their patients. I wont go back. Ever. read more

The doctors are great but staff is a bit slow. Haven't been rude but just a bit slow in patient prep & processing paperwork. A doctor is only as good as their staff. So it's recommended that you arrive very early & arm yourself with patience, lots of patience. read more

This place is a joke, cant say anything about the doctors because i never made it past the front door, but i was on the phone with them trying to make an appointment for an hr, because they had trouble finding my referral, finally make the appointment and 30 mins before my appointment they tell me my insurance isn't covered....they had a whole month to figure that out...didnt even apologize or offer any compensation for wasting my time, all they told me was "we left a message at 5pm yesterday" oh im sorry i was more busy getting my paperwork together and what happened to the other 29 days you had to figure that out, wish there was an option to leave zero stars read more

I love this place. Mostly old people come here so I guess I can see why people are so grumpy. Staff is very professional and explain things well. Great selection of frames and they take VSP and other insurances. This place is awesome read more
