I had to redirect my niece's referral to Dr. Silverberg in Santa Barbara because the lady who answered who I had to ask for her name 3x (TERESA) was disgustingly rude and unprofessional. She kept cutting me off and disregarded that the referral was urgent. Horrible customer service. read more

The worst and most rude front office I have ever been to. She was rude all three times I spoke with her, the perfume she was wearing made me nearly vomit and the office is beyond outdated. Dr was nice but this was a big miss. read more

A great Doctor! Thorough in his exam and he explains his reasoning for his decision . He spends enough time with you to come up with a good plan that is best for the patient. I highly recommend Dr Parrett- he is the real deal. read more

Highly recommend especially if your pediatrician refers your child eye doctor. read more

Cameron Parrett, MD - Ophthalmologists Near Me - Arroyo Grande, California

Well after reading the reviews here and interacting with the doctor, I feel bad about having to leave this review...... Dr Parrett was extremely kind, attentive, -and seemed very knowledgeable. That being said I have never been in a dirtier medical office in my life! I was mildly amused by the 1990's decor in the waiting room, but upon being called back was stunned by the amount of medical equipment and stacks of papers lining both sides of the hallways and the large stains in the walkway rugs. Worse, upon entering the exam room it was clear that No One Had cleaned this room in possibly years. The counters were packed with innumerable items and various bottles of eye drops all open. The clear plastic "shield" on the eye exam device was covered with dust and hand prints and dried droplets of obviously unknown substances...... I didn't see a clear space on any counter except where the doctor writes, and beyond that the counter was covered and had not been wiped down. The trash can next to the exam chair had about 2 cm of dust on it so thick there was actually a hand print in the dust on top! This was just such an unsanitary environment that I had to warn other potential patients. Truly unbelievable. He seemed like a really nice man just NEEDS an office cleaning service and an assistant. read more

I have been going to this practice for about 10 years. Brenda has always been extremely helpful, kind and patient, whether I've needed advice on frames, or help with insurance. Dr. Parrett is unparalleled - best doctor I've ever seen. He is extremely knowledgeable and patient. I typically ask many questions, and he never hesitates to give a full explanation that I can understand. He is extremely thorough, and uses both his experience and technology during his examinations. I have come here for issues with my eyes and for standard check-ups/screenings. He is unbiased and honest. When I inquired about lasik he gave me a very honest answer as opposed to telling me what I wanted to hear. Very refreshing and very appreciated. This place is so excellent! As someone who is generally mistrusting of the medical realm, I am not often compelled to write reviews for doctors, but this practice is top notch in both service and expertise! read more

I needed a vision check and had a bump inside my eyelid. Dr Parrett was so very accommodating. I've never had such a caring, concise and thorough exam. He is the very best! I will go to him for eye care from now on. Highly recommended. read more

This is by far, the best experience I have ever had at the eye doctor. Dr. Parrrett is exceptionally knowledgeable, kind, thorough, patient and informative. He takes the time to explain everything in detail and in laymen's terms. His assistant, Brenda is extremely helpful and brings an infectious enthusiasm to this office. She is also a great resource for choosing frames. They are a GREAT team and I cannot imagine going anywhere else. A big "Thank you" to you both! read more

I was able to get a next day appointment for my first visit for problems with dry eyes. Brenda (receptionist) wasEXTRAORDINARILY friendly and personable. I filled out paperwork and was seen right away. Dr Parrott was incredibly friendly and knowledgable. He explained every step of what he was doing in thorough detail. When it came time for diagnosis, he gave me a bit of an eye anatomy lesson, and then Explained how the treatment would work and why anatomy is important. I have not seen him for glasses, but I will definitely return for my next exam. read more

My husband and I are fairly new to the Central Coast (from San Diego) and settled in Arroyo Grande. We relocated here, in our Retirement, to be closer to our daughter and family. What we didn't expect were the difficulties in finding Medical, Dental. Vision. Etc. My husband is a Diabetic Type 1, so he needs an Opthamologist - finally, we discovered Dr. Parrett and his awesome Office Manager, Brenda! If there were more stars to give we would give them!! Dr. Parrett was so thorough, patient and explained every step of the eye exam process and never rushed our questions! We are both so extremely happy we found him!

I just had my annual examination from Dr. Parrett. He is thorough, communicative, and quite knowledgeable.

Dr. Parrett is wonderful! He is very thorough and informative. I have felt heard and respected at every visit.

I couldn't recommend this office more. read more

I usually go to a different eye doctor but after three weeks of trying to get an appointment on my next day off, I gave up and started calling other places. This place was able to see me within two days, and I was super impressed with the friendly and thorough service. The doctor asked a lot of questions and really seemed to care that I had a good eye exam. It turned out that my old Rx was too strong for me. I've been able to wear my new contacts all day without a headache! I think I found my new eye doctor! read more

Dr. Parrett and Brenda are simply the best customer service experience you will find on the Central Coast. Brenda makes you feel like an old friend the moment you walk in. Dr. Parrett is no regular optometrist; he is an MD. He really knows his stuff and is friendly while explaining things. read more

I have been going to Dr. Parrett for eye exams for a couple of years and have been very impressed by his thoroughness, attention to detail and communication skills. He performs more tests than previous ophthalmologists and explains everything he is doing in clear language I can understand. It is obvious he loves his work and is extremely competent. A few weeks ago, Dr. Parrett performed cataract surgery on my first eye. The surgery went smoothly and my eye is now almost 20/20. Dr. Parrett went above and beyond to help me register at the hospital and make sure I was comfortable. He has checked my eye regularly since surgery to make sure it is healing properly (it is) and test my vision. He is meticulous in his examinations, checking and rechecking to ensure accurate measurements. In addition to his care and competence, he is very personable, as is his wonderful office manager/receptionist, Brenda. read more

I had an appointment yesterday with Dr. Parrett and was just amazed at how thorough and personable he is. He took over an hour and a half with me to check virtuallly everything and give me lots of good information and also the solution to my problem. By the time I left I was so relieved and pleased with probably the best doctor appointment I've ever had. I highly recommend him. (and Brenda the receptionist is awesome also) read more

Front office staff very kind and helpful. Dr. Parent is also very kind and explains everything along the way.

Dr Parrett's office is well run, on time and professional. Dr Parrett was thorough and did more than is required to give a person their prescription for glasses. By the time we were finished I felt much more confident in the health of my eyes and had a precise prescription for new glasses. I would recommend him and his office to anyone. read more

I will always be grateful to Dr. Parrett for getting me through a very painful case of iritis, that had been misdiagnosed by optomitrists and regular doctors. I could barely see by the time I got to him. Dr. Parrett not only treated me, he educated me on how to manage recurring symptoms while I was stationed overseas for several months. He is an excellent eye doctor and a mensch, I highly recommend him. read more

Dr.Parrett is amazing. I went there when I was new to town and he was able to get me in quickly. His exam was so thorough and even spent time going over charts of differences in allergy eye drops with me. Our daughter needed to get in immediately due to pain in her eye. He was able to fit her in the same day. He found an ulcer on her cornea and is treating it. He even told my husband to call him on Sunday if her eye was not improving. I am so glad that we found our family's ophthalmologist. Their office now takes our insurance and their front office staff is kind and hospitable. read more
