I'm glad you do take the time to respond back, because people like this really don't deserve it.

I have a very specialized job where my eyesight is my lifeline. I've had countless frames, contact lenses, special FX lenses both standard size and sclera (prescription) always exactly what I need as my eyes changed over the years. When Dr. Gee recommended LASIK Surgery (which lasted 15 years) I still came for my regular check ups. Fast forward to today, I'm back wearing glasses and being cared for by the new Dr's now that Dr Gee is no longer with us. I'm so grateful that the team continues the same level of care and precision with their exams and all my crazy requests. Now my son, my husband and my siblings and parents come here.

Debra Alexander is a scam artist and can be vindictive. I went to see her for contacts in December…read more2025 because I wasn't given a contact exam during my regular visit. I wasn't aware that a contact visit was separate because my eye doctor in CT always did both at my yearly visit. When I came in I had my eye exam and ordered my box of contacts. Then I came back in March for my regular yearly exam. Before I came in I received many messages telling me to wear my contacts at the visit. I thought why should I? I already had my eyes checked for contacts. When Alexander came in the exam room there were no pleasantries and she just immediately sat down and started asking me how my vision was and she put the letters on the wall. She changed the letters and each time I could not see them at all. I immediately panicked because I couldn't see anything and she had flipped the letters many times. I thought I drove here and could see fine and I was sitting in the lobby reading on my phone just fine. I didn't know what was wrong with me that I couldn't see. When I asked questions, but she didn't answer she just kept on with her test. When she was done she said I had a different prescription in both eyes and that I would need two new different boxes of contacts. She had me take out my new contacts I had just worn to the office and throw them away. I refused to do that so she gave me a case to put them in and I put her contacts in she was prescribing me. I told her they were uncomfortable. She wanted me to try them for a few days and let her know as soon as possible if I liked them so I could bring my other prescription contacts in. She then took me out to the front to place an order with the tech. Mean while as I'm trying to keep up with her I'm thinking wait a minute when am I going to be checked for glasses? I wanted to use my insurance for glasses. I tried to ask her but she went back in the technician office and she said she would be back. I hoped then I would get a chance to say I want to use my insurance for my new prescription for lenses. I didn't even want to change my frames because she doesn't have a good selection or very many choices of glasses for women. The glasses selection cater more to men. The tech came out and I asked her if the doctor was coming out and she told me no and that she was seeing her next patient. Alexander told me she would be right back. The tech started talking to me about the contacts and placing my order. I was very confused and frustrated and I told the tech I feel very scammed. I told her I had just come in the office and had my eyes checked in December how is it my eyes dramatically changed in a few months and now I'm going to need two new boxes(a different prescription for each eye), which is going to cost me even more money and these are not the same brand and they probably cost more because they were a contact that dealt with stigmatism and bifocals. I told the tech I didn't come in to have my eyes check for contacts. She said well it's because it says in your records that I complained that I should have had my eyes checked for contacts during my yearly visit. I had that conversation on the phone with the receptionist and she explained that they are separate visits. I understood once she explained it but clearly I was being punished and scammed at my yearly visit. I told the tech right then that I felt scammed and that I didn't want to order the new contacts and that I would stay with the contacts that I just received in January. I was happy with them and I wanted to use my insurance for new lenses in my present frames. The tech said she would report my feeling scammed and how I was treated by Alexander to the office manager. I thought to myself what for? She works for her what is she going to do. Once I got my glasses I requested my records so I could go else where. The receptionist told me that she would let Alexander know. I said ok but why can't I just come in and pick up my records. She told me that Alexander needed to look over them and clean them up. I found that very suspicious. Why do they need to be cleaned up. I asked for the last 3 visits and it took 5 days to get them. I went in and picked them up and left. When I got home I looked at them and saw that my December visit was not included. I went back the next business day and requested my records for that visit. They then had to get permission. I told them I wanted the records for the visit but they asked me did I want my contact prescription. I said well yes I want that included but that I wanted all the information on that visit like what I had been given for my other visits and I showed them the records that I had been given. After they talked to Alexander I was only given my contact prescription and not the test records of that visit broken down. How convenient that I wasn't given those records to compare my December visit with my March visit. Very Calculating!

I left once and went to Costco but came back and now I'm done with this office. I called the other day and was on hold for 10 minutes. I am trying a new optometrist next month when my insurance is available for full exam etc. My latest glasses are horrible. Spent so much money. The anti reflection is expensive yet it doesn't look like I have it. In pictures, I look horrible. Can't see my eyes. The new doctor I got was nice but probably examined me wrong. My glasses are hard to use. The countertops and tables look curved. Also she told me the price for a contact lens exam and gave me the wrong price. If I would have known I would have said nevermind I will live without new contacts. I paid so much money for a horrible product. I told the staff and they didn't care. I was forced to pay even though she made an error and saw the wrong price. I cried and cried in my car. Melody called me and probably realized I was upset and she tried her best to make me happy and I agreed with her offer and that was that. But for the past year, I've been wearing my old prescription glasses because the new ones are simply hard to use. Plus I spent so much money on new frames and new contact lens exam that I didn't have enough money left over for new sunglasses so I've been using my sunglasses from two prescriptions ago and now I fell while running and they scratched up so I am forced to replace everything. I hope the new office that I will be trying out is good to me.

I went to Dr. Goldberg for cataract surgery and Dr. Goldberg recommended I pay for the $3,700…read morepremium care package for a premium Toric IOL lens in my left eye, to have close up vision and to correct an astigmatism. This charge was paid entirely at my own expense, since this service was considered non-medical essential and not covered by medical insurance. The surgery on my left eye did not go well. Dr. Goldberg left big pieces of cataract fragments floating around in my eye. As a result, my left eye developed a secondary infection and I was required to have a Vitrectomy surgery with Dr. Gasperini at South Coast Retina Center, on July 17th 2024, which was a very invasive surgery. Before that procedure was done, I was not able to see with my left eye. At the end of September, I was informed by Torrance Surgery Center, a refund of $1,427.24 would be credited back to me due to the fact that doctor Goldberg did not put a Toric IOL lens in my left eye, instead he inserted a standard PIECE lens, without my knowledge and my consent. This standard PIECE lens does not correct astigmatism! Dr. Goldberg's office never informed me that a standard PIECE lens had been inserted in my left eye rather than the Toric IOL lens until I confronted him with the knowledge I learned from Torrance Surgery Center in October, which is 4 months after my surgery date. The fact that Dr. Goldberg did not inform me of this is highly unprofessional and should be considered as medical fraud. Upon confrontation, Dr. Goldberg only offered me reimbursement of a fraction of the $3,700 I paid for the premium Toric IOL lens conditioned on me signing a release for all claims which I did not accept. I am requesting that Dr. Goldberg reimburse me the $3,700 for the Toric IOL lens I did not receive, until today, I still haven't got any reimbursement at all. I want to warn the other patients such despicable practice can exist in a seemingly reputable ophthalmologist such as Dr.Damien Goldberg.
