Dr Marianna is very professional and thoughtful. I didn't think I needed glasses and after the exam I was recommended reading glasses and I'm so happy I got them.

The office was clean, organized, and the process from check-in to the exam was smooth and efficient. A special shoutout to Angela, whose customer service was truly exceptional. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of and made the whole experience stress-free. Angela was patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly kind while helping me with my questions and making sure I found exactly what I needed. It's rare to come across someone who clearly cares about the patients the way she does. The doctor was thorough and took the time to explain everything clearly, which I really appreciated. I never felt rushed and left feeling confident about my eye health and my new prescription. Overall, Sylmar Vision Center provides top-notch care and outstanding customer service. Thanks again to Angela and the entire team for making this such a positive experience. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great eye care provider!

I've been a patient here for many years and have consistently had positive experiences in the past…read more The staff--especially Olga--were always friendly, attentive, and helpful. Olga took the time to explain insurance versus out-of-pocket options and made sure patients felt comfortable and cared for. The doctors have also always been kind and professional. Unfortunately, my recent experiences have been disappointing. Between my annual exam, multiple return visits for contacts and glasses, and several phone calls, the level of service has noticeably declined. I understand there is a new owner, who I believe is one of the doctors that was already there and is very nice, but the overall atmosphere has changed. Olga used to be the first point of contact, and her presence seemed to set the tone for a higher level of patient care. Without her, the front desk experience feels less welcoming, and the staff's attitude has been underwhelming. Additionally, there are rotating doctors, which makes it difficult to build a relationship with someone familiar with my history and needs. Some of the fill-in doctors also appear unfamiliar with the system, making it harder to access past records or maintain continuity of care. Another challenge is the updated schedule. The office is no longer open on Saturdays, which makes even simple tasks like picking up contacts or glasses inconvenient. I've had to leave work five or six times over the past few months just to handle routine matters. While I don't have the time to detail every issue I've encountered recently, these cumulative experiences have changed my perception of the practice. Sadly, I'll likely be looking elsewhere for care moving forward and would no longer recommend this office to others. Perhaps the new owner should consider asking patients to fill out surveys after their visit so she can get a better idea of where the failures are in addition to receiving positive feedback when called for.

The woman who helped me said, "that's just how they are," but I know they weren't originally like that. I explained that I work a job where I move my head a lot and needed them tightened for stability. Instead of adjusting them, she told me that I shouldn't move my head that way and that it wouldn't be a problem. I was disappointed because I came in for a simple fix and felt dismissed rather than helped. I expected more understanding and better customer service.

I've been going to Dr Craig Hoeft for about 23 years now. He's always been great, with lots of…read moregood advice and recommendations. About 6 years ago, he noticed some floaters and some early signs of retina stress (from my near sightedness condition). Dr Hoeft then recommended Dr Kent Small for an assessment - that was very good, timely advice and within a year, I experienced a detached retina and needed a few different treatments and surgery. I'm now back to good vision (albeit with corrective contact lens') but the best part is with my last appointment with Dr Hoeft, my updated prescription, I'm seeing almost 20/20 again! Thanks you Dr Craig!

The lady taking my payment asked me to pick my glasses! Then she proceeded to tell me one of the pair was tight on me but I proceeded to tell her it was ok. She then gave me her resting face of unpleasant thoughts! She tried to tell me otherwise and I said I was fine with that because it was for an emergency reason. She still said my head was too big and excuse after excuse after which I said I didn't care because I wouldn't wear them Lady it's my money I'm paying for them I will do w them as I please, when it comes out of your pocket then you can decide what ever you want! This is the many reasons why I don't return to this place! When I go to pick up my glasses I will make sure to break the pair in front of her face! Lady! YHLQMDLG!!!

Hubs glasses broke Sunday night and, with no back-up pair to speak of, we were off to Costco first…read morething Monday morning to see if they could fix them. They couldn't, but they were nice enough to refer us to an eyeglass fixer in Glendale. A bit of a drive, but we were happy to get a referral. Soooo, what he needed was an eye exam and prescription filled, since his last exam was over 4 years ago. Luckily, Dr. Shad was in and - even MORE luckily! - an appointment cancelled as we we walked in to check availability. Hubs answered the questions from the friendly, helpful staff, then waited all of 5 minutes for Dr. Shad to see him for his exam. Just moments later, he was checked out, paid for his eye exam and retinal scan and we were back at Costco Optical, where Irving helped Hubs get 2 pair of glasses ordered with the updated prescription - YEA! I realize this is probably unusual to walk in and get an appointment right away. Also note, Dr. Shad is an independent practitioner, not affiliated with Costco, just conveniently located inside the store, adjacent to the Optical Dept. So you will pay separately for his services. Should either of us need our heads - errr...EYES! - examined again, we will return to Dr. Shad. Cheers! "CC"
