This place is always busy. I came in because I was referred to the ophthalmologist by my rheumatologist. I have dry eyes naturally that maybe got worse after LASIK, but also, I'm on medication that may negatively affect the eyes, so I have to get routinely checked. I came in for Dr Jennifer Lee. She's amazing! She did my punctal plugs. Appointment was at 9:40, and I was out by 10:30 Super quick. Anesthesia eye drops. Quick plug insertion. Left eye kept sticking out and popped out completely. Came back the next day right when they opened. Quick and easy. They're always super nice and friendly even though they see tons of people everyday. I would recommend this place, but it won't be the fastest appointment read more

Went to pick up daughter's glasses on Jan 6, 2025 was told at ordering time that hours are M-F 8am-4pm and they are closed from 12:00-1:00pm for lunch. Arrived at 8:00 greeted with a smirking Iris. She informs me that they don't come in until 8:30. I wouldn't be so disappointed if I didn't have the hours on the pick up receipt from their office with the office hours. Also this is now the second time their hours are not correct. When we came to select frames same thing. Iris could not tell me the person to speak too in regards to this constant issue. Also no Office manager onsite at opening of office??? read more

It was my first visit for a routine eye exam & I was out within an hour. The staff covered all the bases with no lag time. Even when dealing with all the Co-Vid precautions, the team kept the different eye tests & time in between at a normal pace. Everyone was professional & friendly. Dr. Lee was as well. She was informative & easy to talk with. I saved a ton of time by filling out the paperwork they emailed to me in advance. I'll be going back soon to see about getting new glasses but won't need another exam until next year. There's a large parking lot so finding a spot wasn't a problem. read more

I really enjoyed coming to this location. I had 5 breaks in my retina that required surgery. Receptionists Iris and Paola were very courteous and extremely professional. My questions and concerns were answered in great detail. They clearly understand their assignments here. Dr Tarek Alasil, also answered my questions and concerns in great detail. He performed the surgery on my right eye and I really think that he has to be considered one of the best. I said to him that he must be a great person outside of his work because I believe he is an amazing doctor. He really seemed to take great pride in his work as he also displays an excellent bedside manner towards his patients (I could hear him speaking with other patients as well). I had previously had laser surgery for a retina tear (same eye) from another doctor prior to Dr Alasil preforming the vitrectomy surgery on my eye. His concern for my eye health was unmatched in my personal opinion. I'm really very happy that I ended up here to have the surgery. read more

Doctors seem friendly but staff and management seem incompetent. Customer service is completely lacking. They over book appointments, cancel appointments and don't seem to know what's going on in their own office. Also be prepared to wait. Very few times are they actually on time with your appointment. I can't imagine elderly patients dealing with this office. Luckily for my mom, my sisters and I dealt with the appointments and rebooting and rescheduling. They even made us an appointment when no doctor was available. The inconvenience was ridiculous. read more

I was billed for contact lens fitting even though the optometrist never assessed my eyes with contacts on. She had told me to come back so we can do the fitting. My insurance changed so I couldn't come back to do it. I found out they charged me anyways. I tried to fight this because of the principle, but then just paid it because I didnt want to waste any more of my time on this shitty office. Be careful about them charging you for things that were not done. read more

Use to deal with provider that no longer there - Lee -was great. She was great - and office was good busy- but sadly she left - and that office's waiting room is a hot mess. I came twice - never seen a provider after a waiting an hour - than left stunned by the state of disorganization there. Was never spoken with.... Not enough comfortable seating for their schedule, after an hour - not everyone sitting there when I arrived was called, little kids climbing walls or singing along with video. If you like to be treated like cattle - run- dont walk - to that office. read more

Excellent place to have your eyes checked. Had my yearly check up done here. The clinic assistants were polite and friendly. Doctor Jennifer Lee is wonderful and attentive. Very fast service even though the place was fully packed with patients. read more

My eternal doctor Dr. Jenifer Lee and her team were very friendly and professional. I would highly recommend Dr. Lee as your primary eye doctor! read more

i went to get my first pair of glasses, the process with the doctor was easy and she was wonderful. however the promise date for my glasses was October 10th. I've tried calling the office several times during open hours, but they is always someone else on the line, and when I try to leave my name and number in the voicemail box (as the automated answering machine directs me to do), I'm unable to because the voicemail-box is full! I've been trying to get glasses for over a month now with no success. read more

Dr Jennifer Lee is great Office staff is welcoming and efficient Wait times are ok read more

Only reason this place did not get a one star is the staff is extremely polite, warm and competent. As for the optomologist I was sent to Dr. Tarek Alasil here is my opinion. If you are looking for a doctor that will look you in the eye and ask what is your problem and here is what I am going to do to help.... then stay the hell away. This clown of a doctor walked to where I was waiting did not introduce himself , did not acknowledge himself to me or my daughter and went right to his computer. With his back turned to me he stated "unfortunately your eye is irreversible". Nice way to tell a patient that your eye is irreversible. I tried to tell him the problems I am having and the different treatments I have taken and he paid ZERO attention to anything I said. Then he said see me in two weeks and when walking out my daughter said why does he want to see you in two weeks when he offered no reason to come back??? Finally he stated he would send a prescription to my pharmacy which after 6 days he still has not done even after I repeatedly call his office. Nice job Doc. In closing this place is an assembly line of how many patients can they squeeze into in as little time as necessary. Its corporate America folks as they just do not care about their patients. Its all about the bottom line so I don't blame this doctor for that. My suggestion....STAY CLEAR OF THIS PLACE AND ESPECIALLY DR. ALASIL. HE WILL NOT REALLY CARE FOR YOU LIKE HE DIDN'T CARE FOR ME. We all need better!!!!!!!!!!!!! Robert L read more

PART 2: This doctor made me cry So the bump where I had gotten the steroid shot came back 3 months later. Same exact spot, same size, despite keeping up with the warm compress, hygiene and fish oil. It becomes stressful to keep getting something like that on your face. It wasn't getting any better so after 2 weeks I call to schedule an appointment. I tell the person on the phone I think I need another steroid shot because the chalazion came back. The soonest they could get me in was in another 2 weeks. My appointment was for 1pm on 5/26 and I didn't get seen by Dr. Grant until about 2:30pm. He comes in and asks what I am there for, so I tell him because the bump came back. He looks over the notes from the last visit and turns to me and says "Ok, so what do you want me to do?" I was caught off guard by this question because I am here to see the "specialist" about a reoccurring problem. Someone who last time told me it was incredible to him how people will wait until a chalazion is a big problem before they go see him. I told him he gave me a steroid shot last time which helped. He said it helped because the bump had been there for a long time and asked how long this one had been going on. I said 2 weeks, not realizing it was actually almost a month already. He said ok, but this is like a pimple, people get pimples and they often go away on their own, so I could also wait and see what it does or he could "cut it open," but it is too soon since it's only been there 2 wks. I said I don't know what the best choice is for me then. This is why I came to see him. He looked up at the ceiling and back down at me (an impatient gesture). I asked him if this was just a waste of time because he was speaking to me like this time I came to see him too soon. He shrugged his shoulders and said "it's not a waste of MY time, l'm here." I asked if he would be able to cut it open today and he said he'd have to check his schedule, but I should have told the person I scheduled with that I needed an appointment for a surgical procedure, not a routine visit. I told him I thought he was being rude because I am being told I should have done things differently and how was I supposed to know what to do when he is the specialist who should know what is best for my eye. I said I have followed all of your orders but it still came back. He said "part of that is on me because I see people with this same problem ALL THE TIME." He said his job was to educate me and empower me to make my own decision and said "so again, what do you want me to do?" | grabbed my purse and said "it's ok, nothing I guess." Dr. Grant said "good!" as he opened the door signaling for me to walk out. I said "no, it isn't good that I have to leave with no help. You are incredibly rude." At no point did I raise my voice at him. There were other patients and assistants in the waiting area and the ophthalmic assistant who checked me in was walking by at which point Dr. Grant told her to see me to the front desk and schedule me with another doctor for any other appointments going forward. I felt so humiliated, belittled, and disregarded. I said "yes, please schedule me with anyone else. He is completely rude." I have never been treated with such lack of courtesy and professionalism by a medical provider. Dr. Grant treated me like I was unworthy of respect or medical attention and he was dismissive in the way that he got up immediately to open the door for me to leave. What was his reason for telling the assistant, with other people around, to schedule me with another doctor going forward? He made it seem like I was a problematic patient. I could not help but cry uncontrollably in the lobby as the very kind person at the front desk apologized to me over and over and handed me tissue. She was very comforting and saw how terribly upset I was. I was shaking and so embarrassed in front of so many people waiting. If you have a chalazion, Dr. Grant will not try to help you because what he's basically saying is that he is tired of being referred patients with that issue when they should just have better hygiene. Avoid him at all costs if you don't want a very unpleasant experience. Management at this office need to have a conversation with him about the way he talks to and treats his patients with this particular issue. READ THE OTHER REVIEWS on people with chalazions. He treats them the same way. He doesn't want these cases and is handing us off to another doctor. We are ALL worthy of care regardless of what he thinks is worth his time or not. He's still getting paid to do his job and that's what he should do. read more

My husband had an appointment for 9:50. It's now almost 2 hrs later and they are just call him in. What's the use having appointment. If we were late they'd cancel. We go to the Torrance office usually and have never had this happen. At the Torrance office much more professional and know how to schedule and space out patients so this doesn't happen. Very disappointed in how they handled time of wait for this appointment! read more

Just wanted to share that my experience with Acuity - Long Beach was top notch! Dr Lee was knowledgeable and efficient. She provided professional care combined with a personalized touch. Although my doctor visit currently only occurs once a year, Dr Lee and her staff makes me feel that l'm a regular. Their familiarity with me , both as a patient and as an individual, is strong and consistent. I highly recommend this medical office. Thank you very much Acuity Eye Group - Long Beach. read more

Dr. Lee was very friendly and personable. She explained in details what is going on and options . The staff are friendly as well , I highly recommend her if you are looking for an eye specialist read more

This has to be the best run office I've ever been too. Everyone is so nice and Dr. Lee is AWESOME!

My wife broke her glasses. I took them to location on Woodruff in Long Beach before Christmas. The receptionist told me I couldn't drop them off to be repaired because an optometrist had to be there on duty. All I wanted was to have the glasses repaired. The receptionist told me I could come back December 27th, and there would be someone there to handle my issue. What kind of business can't send glasses for repair without seeing an Optometrist? So... on the 27th I called. There was no answer on their automated phone system. I couldn't leave a message because their voicemail system was full. I finally got through to the switchboard and she was unable to get anyone to answer and was also unable to leave a message on my behalf. I decided to drive over there because I couldn't get through to them on the phone. The receptionist told me that I couldn't drop the glasses off to be repaired. She said that there was no one there that could do it. She said I could call them after the New Year. I explained that I couldn't get through to them using the automated phone service and that I was unable to leave a message because their voicemail was full. I really have a problem believing that no one can send glasses to the manufacturer to have them fixed without an optometrist being present. The temple had broken, it didn't require an eye exam. I'm really upset that you have such poor customer service and also that your phone system doesn't work properly. read more

Not a very professional office most staff are extremely hurried and rude. They treat the patients like cattle. Was told I needed surgery and was told I would be contacted by someone in scheduling. Weeks went by and no call so I called them. They said the person that did the scheduling was not around but they could see what surgery times were available. I said whatever was available the soonest. I was then told my tentative surgery date would be three months out and I would be contacted for details at a later date. Well that was months ago and no call or email. Not a good way to follow up on someone's health when it involves whether they will be able to see or not. Went elsewhere and glad I did, as I would still be waiting! read more

Too many people, 45 minute wait past my appointment time plus got there 15 minutes earlier

I've been seen by Dr. Alisil for more than five months now, I couldn't ask for a better ophthalmologist or clinic. But the doctor and the staff care very much about their patients at least I felt so, not being able to see is very difficult and can be somewhat depressing even but it's time I go they lift my spirit and I know with my doctor doing everything you can to restore my vision I have nothing but good things to say about him and all his wonderful staff! God bless them all Tiffany Rivera Long Beach CA read more

Service was very good. The problem was the strong food smell coming as there was restaurant in same building. I am the patient of Asthma the restaurant smell triggered me my breathing a lot. Lot of sick people visits there and I believe those thing that triggers patient health should not be allowed in same building or the restaurant should operate without bothering other people health. read more

This office has poor customer service. The staff does not even introduce themselves. Dr Alasil did not even introduce himself when my dad met him for the first time. Of course, I'm the daughter, I had to ask him who he was. Then the second appt for my dad, he did not even tell us anything about his left eye. I had to ask him and he said nothing can be done about it and I'll see you in a year. He didn't even explain why! The doctor is very unprofessional. This is the worst service my dad ever had. read more

It was a great experience. Dr. Grant and the staff were very professional, informative and pleasant. They took care of my son who is four and is scared of any doctor appointments. My son will need to wear glasses for a little bit but will see Dr. Grant in four months to see if it's improved. read more

This was my first time at the Acuity Eye Group Long Beach facility. The office was cheery and the staff was kind and accommodating. I had all the tests I needed to be taken right away. Doctor Grant was thorough and asked me if I had any other questions/concerns and stuck around to hear them. I didn't feel like a number! There was plenty of parking and signage. I would recommend this facility. read more

Just had to walk out of office. I arrived at my time 310 at the office. Once inside the packed full office I asked if doctor was running behind. Where I was told an hour and 20 minutes behind schedule. Every seat full and hot. How id the acceptable. They could've at least called and told me they were running behind schedule. But they only called to get my update insurance but forgot to mention Dr. running behind. It's amazing what a front office staff can do to an entire office doctors are fantastic just can't get to them. read more

First time visit, from the minute I walked thru the door. I received a warm welcome, the office was clean and comfortable. My appointment was 2pm, I was called in a free minutes later. The assistant got me started, on my appointment and answer several questions I had regarding my eyes and glasses. Then after given a customer ahead of me help with her mother's prescription. Doctor J Lee provided Excellent help with my eye care. We talk her schooling and visit to Boston. She's a fantastic doctor and person. Matter of fact the whole staff there is Great! I hope I didn't offend her my by saying, she was Beautiful. And looked like, no better then one of my favorite actress from the Bond move and Crazy Rich AsiansONE OF MY FAVORITE MOVIES-MICHELLE YEOH.

I really don't like this place at all but I just go there to help my parents with their appts etc. 80% of the people who work at this location act like they don't want to work there or act like they hate people. I think I only came across 2 workers who I adore because they really care for the patients. Everyone else needs to find another job that fits their stinky personality. If you don't like working with people, then don't work in a field where you are helping people. Geez! read more
