Dr. Dagny Zhu is nothing short of incredible. As a fellow healthcare worker, I never thought I'd find myself writing a review for a surgery, but Dr. Zhu is one of a kind. As a pediatric general dentist, I'm seeing 40-80 kids a day - to say my vision is critical is an understatement, and I'd only be trusting my eyes to the best. LASIK has completely changed my daily clinical and non-clinical life, and even 5 or so years after my original surgery date, easily remains one of the best health related expenses I've ever done. For those of you interested in the academic side of things, Dr. Zhu is well credentialed - a Harvard graduated MD, with Ophthalmology residency at the Doheny Eye Institute / USC & Los Angeles County Medical Center. Her fellowship was at Bascom Palmer Eye Institute. As if that's not enough, she still does research and mentors upcoming residents. This level of training and active commitment to the medical community as a whole speaks volumes to the caliber of clinician that Dr. Zhu is and aspires to build unto others. Non-academically, Dr. Zhu herself is incredibly personable, and shows an unwavering commitment to her patients - even years later, she personally follows up me multiple times, and is as interested in my own vision outcomes as I am. She is thorough, detail-oriented, and can confidently convey the same depth and breath of knowledge to her patients. Due to my correction being borderline for the limits of LASIK, all contingencies were planned for to ensure excellent outcomes. Even years later, I have not had a single post-op complication, including zero days of dry eyes. Dr. Zhu is an amazing eye surgeon, and more importantly, an awesome human being. I'm absolutely ecstatic about the care I've received, and cannot recommend Dr. Zhu any more highly. read more

I recently had LASIK surgery with Dr. Zhu, and her thorough communication was truly key in helping me feel calm and confident throughout the entire experience. She conversed with me throughout the procedure, which made me feel comfortable and at ease the entire time. The procedure was quick, the light water sensations were exactly as explained. I was able to see immediately after surgery, and the vision chart results were instant. No more expensive glasses or money spent on repairs, and the results have truly given my self-esteem a boost.

I had an amazing experience at Hyperspeed LASIK! The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. They made me feel completely at ease.

As a brain surgeon, clear crisp vision is essential for my career and most importantly the safety of my own patients. I am lucky to have known Dr. Dagny Zhu since long before we were both surgeons, and knew she would take excellent care of my eyes, just as she had for thousands of patients before me and thousands to come. Evelyn, my patient counselor, made the entire process seamless, guiding me through each step from the initial consultation through surgery and well into the post-op visits, accommodating for my busy schedule and answering all my questions. Sarahi, at the front desk always greeted me with a smile, making checking in and scheduling appointments simple and straightforward. Surgical techs, Sami, Carlos and Alondra were knowledgeable, efficient, and friendly; taking precise measurements, offering helpful advice, and ensuring everything was exactly right, so that my vision would be perfect and my eyes ready for surgery. Drs. Lee, Armirkhanian, and Ramirez were my optometrists, focusing on accuracy and making sure my sight was clear and eyes healthy throughout the entire process. My LASIK surgery by Dr. Zhu was a breeze. She is not only a skulled and competent cornea surgeon, she is thorough and will help guide you through your options and towards the best possible outcome with ease. My vision was crisp immediately after surgery. I followed the easy post-op instructions closely and I was back to work, performing brain surgery 36 hours later! My vision is clear and perfect; I have no discomfort nor complaints. The entire process was convenient and effective. I am so grateful to Dr. Zhu and the entire team at Hyperspeed LASIK (NVISION Rowland Heights)!

I needed cataract surgery. I am deathly afraid of needles, hospitals and hospital surgical centers, as well as traditional physicians. I have vasovagal syncope which is a fainting disorder set off by certain triggers. Mine being just about anything medical! Fair to say that I carried a lot of baggage on my journey to cataract surgery! Enter HyperSpeed Lasik, the phenomenal Dr. Zhu and her incredible entourage of doctors, techs and support staff. HyperSpeed Lasik is truly patient-centric. The first contact that I had was with Evelyn, the patient advocate extraordinaire! Evelyn has a very calming mannerism with a comforting, "take charge", attitude that allows the patient to exhale! She sincerely cares about each one of her patients. She really listens when you speak to her. And, she is an excellent communicator. She is encouraging and upbeat and you just cannot be stressed out around her. She has the ability to make each one of her patients feel as though you are her top priority. She sets the tone for the entire experience. She is a gifted care giver. My tech on the day of my surgery was, Sami...where do I even begin... Sami is highly proficient at his job. You just know that you are in the most capable hands when you are under his care. He is laser focused and superior at multi-tasking. He might be responsible for multiple patients at a time, but when he is with you, he spends whatever time you need to assure you that you are individually very important and that he is committed to the process of this experience with you. Sami is funny and steals some moments to make you smile, and, in my case, laugh outright! He lights up a room and lightens your spirit. It is clear that Dr. Zhu hand selects her team with precision. They mirror her in so many ways and compliment her in others. She is not only a brilliant and gifted surgeon but she is also so kind and compassionate. She truly cares about her patients. As far as the surgery itself, it was needle free, painless and finished very quickly. Dr. Zhu and her surgical assistant keep you informed of each step in a very reassuring way. They both were very comforting to listen to. And, if you listen very carefully, you can hear Dr Zhu ever so lightly humming a very sweet and relaxing melody. Just perfect! read more

Update: I just had my life-changing eye surgery with Dr. Dagny Zhu at HyperSpeed LASIK. She recommended an implantable EVO ICL™ Lens over LASIK because of my high (-9!) prescription and the experience has just been absolutely amazing! The surgery was painless and recovery better than expected. In fact, I was already seeing 20/20 the next day! This was by far one of the best decisions I have made, I only wish I knew Dr. Zhu and had the surgery sooner. My work as a radiologist has never been better since my dry eyes from wearing contacts and eye strain from wearing glasses have all been eliminated. Thanks again Dr. Zhu for the impressive work that you do! read more

Dagny Zhu, MD - Ophthalmologists Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

Amazing doctors and staff ! Every visit is a great one ! Always so thorough and take care of/spend time needed for your exam.

Anyone considering LASIK surgery should without a doubt consider HyperSpeed Staff members were courteous, competent, and highly knowledgable. Evelyn walked me through every step of the process. Dr. Ramirez helped answered all my questions. Carlos and Sami were attentive and always made sure I was okay. The LASIK surgery only took 5 minutes, and Dr. Zhu was fantastic! read more

I'm about a week in recovery of getting lasik treatment, and I'm glad I got the procedure done. Thank you dr Zhu and the rest of the staff, they were truly amazing. read more

It's been about a month since I had spontaneously decided to get lasik. I couldn't have been more happy about my choice of getting it at this center. Doctor Zhu and her team made me feel so comfortable during all my check ups and especially during my procedure. I was so comfortable that I even talked to Doctor Zhu during my procedure, while getting my cornea cut and all that good stuff. I was 20/20 the day after, I love how clear everything is! Lasik made me realize how glasses and contacts were NOT doing justice in everyday life, what I saw through my eyes and how it seemed to me. Everything has been so much more vibrant and sharp. I highly recommend considering this center for all your eye needs! She was honestly really thorough with my post examination to make sure it was going to be safe and that I would be a prepared patient for the procedure. I felt that she really wanted things to go perfectly rather than doing procedures for money. HIGHLY recommend you to be under her care. read more

I wore contact lenses since 8th grade, and got tired of them. I sought out Dr Zhu as my LASIK surgeon after hearing great things about her from my optometrist and and from online research. Her credentials are amazing - MD from Harvard Medical School. After meeting her, I knew she was the right doctor for the procedure. She is smart, knowledgeable, kind and caring. While other offices still cut with a blade, she uses a bladeless technique which ensures faster recovery. I got the procedure done, went home and slept, then woke up to perfect eyesight! What a nice thing to have after all these years! I highly recommend Dr Zhu for your LASIK procedure. You will be as happy as me :) read more

Dr. Zhu is such an attentive and patient ophthalmologist. Although my eye problem was pretty minor, she still took her time out of her busy schedule to see me and educate me. Thank you so much doctor! 如果你或你的家人需要眼睛疾病方面的專業意見，朱醫生絕對是你在羅蘭崗和哈崗附近能找到的最佳人選！ 我眼睛經常酸疼，經過朱醫生與診所驗光師的詳細檢查才知道我用眼過度有發炎狀況。用了朱醫生開的處方狀況果然改善很多，還學習了護眼方法。 要在LA找到一個耐心又能以中文看診的醫生真不簡單，但我很高興我能遇到朱醫生。謝謝朱醫生！ read more

This is best and most underrated place to get LASIK in LA. With other offices, you'll pay more and get worse results. Dr. Zhu has top credentials (Harvard MD, did her fellowship at the #1 place in the country for ophthalmology). She also has the latest and best equipment. I got LASIK this year after wearing glasses/contacts my whole life. Best thing I've done this year and wish I did it years ago! Before getting LASIK I did exhaustive research and asked around my firm for referrals. They mostly referred me to these practices in Beverly Hills that seemed way overpriced. Also, the doctors there were "established" (read: old). I'd rather have someone experienced but still at the height of her physical and mental powers. Recovery was super easy and I was at more than 20/20 the next day. Would recommend LASIK for anyone, esp. with Dr. Zhu! read more

Dr. Zhu is an amazing clinician and surgeon. She's a class act when it comes to surgical skills and diagnosis. What makes this place even better is the amazing customer service. Dr. Zhu spends time with her patients and really listens to their concerns. She did my eye exam and was so thorough! Did I mention she's a Harvard doctor who trained at the best eye hospitals in the country? We're so lucky to have her in our community! read more

I have had an extremely high prescription (very nearsighted) for years now and have used glasses and contacts for quite a long time. I decided to make an appointment for a free consult here and was very impressed with the staff and technology. The surgical options were explained very clearly by the doctors and surgeon herself. The day of surgery ran very smoothly and my lasik procedure was done in mere minutes. The recovery was extremely quick and I can now see perfectly without the use of any glasses or contacts. It is truly something positively life changing and I would recommend this place to anyone interested in improving their quality of life and vision. read more

If you're reading this review, you already know about LASIK's benefits and you're probably looking for the best surgeon. It's certainly changed my life, and words can't describe how wonderful it is to wake up in the middle of the night and see the time. I chose Dr. Zhu on a recommendation and after much research. I couldn't be happier. All the nice LASIK practices have new, state-of-the art equipment (if they don't, run) and Dr. Zhu's practice is no exception. So it really comes down to the surgeon and the quality of care they provide. And I have to say, out of all the medical procedures I've ever had, this one ranks as the best. Dr. Zhu is energetic, caring and spent time answering my questions - not only for my comfort, but also to make sure I got the best possible result. To top that, she's trilingual and it was impressive hearing her converse to patients in multiple languages. If you follow her clinic's page, you'll see that she's very up to date with all the latest techniques and even gives talks to local optometrists. All the other patients (and relatives of patients) I talked to were very happy with both the care she took with the procedure and the results! Dr. Zhu's staff is also incredible, and it is clear to me Dr. Zhu takes care to make sure her clinic is full of well trained staff who have the same level of energy and care for patients as she does. The optometrists, clerks and even the finance staff really showed that they cared and wanted me to have the best results possible. My procedure was short and quick. Dr. Zhu and her staff really made sure I was comfortable and informed me about every step of the short and painless procedure. Afterwards, I got a "goody" bag to make sure that my eyes healed quickly - sleeping goggles to make sure that I didn't damage my eyes, lots of eyedrops to hydrate my eyes and a 24/7 emergency number in the unlikely case something went wrong. My followup appointments were great and smooth too, only without the surgery part :). In short, Dr. Zhu offers a level of service, care and attention that I doubt other providers in big vision centers could provide. read more

Best decision ever. Want to give yourself a gift? I highly recommend getting Lasik. It will change your life. Had a great experience with HyperSpeed Lasik and would highly recommend to anyone looking to change their life and be able to have perfect vision again. Dr. Zhu is extremely meticulous and thorough! During the consultation, I wasn't a good candidate for Lasik due to dry eyes and was recommended for E-Lasik or Lasek. However, after running multiple tests, Dr. Zhu cleared me for Lasik, which has a shorter recovery. Having all the tests ran multiple times and knowing that Dr. Zhu looked through my charts thoroughly made me feel more comfortable to go through with this procedure. Her staff is also helpful and friendly. Thank you!! read more

I believe that the best appreciation to Dr. Dagny Zhu, a Harvard-trained and board-certified ophthalmologist, is to share my recent experience with her. So other people can be benefited. All of a sudden, both my eyes became very red and irritating, and I was panic and helpless. Based on a last-minute request, Dr. Zhu squeezed me into her busy schedule. Her diagnosis and the medication she prescribed released my uncomfortableness, concerns, and worries. She then followed with an email to remind me how to take care of my eyes. Dr. Zhu and her staff of Dr. Liang and Evelyn's professional, friendly, and caring work made me feel supported, comfortable, and relax during my visit to their office. What teamwork! In addition, Dr. Zhu specializes in cornea, cataract, and refractive surgery. Her expertise is backed by her education, training, and qualifications from UCLA, Harvard, Stanford, and USC to Bascom Palmer Eye Institute. This is awesome!! When getting older, most people eventually need cataract surgery to restore vision. When the time comes, I definitely would like to have Dr. Zhu take care of me. Thank you, Dr. Zhu and your team for everything you did to resolve my eye issues. read more

Service was amazing, the explanation of the treatment was explained step by step. Check ups are also very helpful. I'm very satisfied with the procedure, I recommend it 100. I'm very happy with the service. Mariana explains all treatment charges and all options. read more

Dr Zhu and a whole staff was awesomely took care my carats. I like them all, experienced and welcoming care to patients as I went through my procedure. Thank you so much to all, I would recommend to all of whoever needs LASIK or Cataracts done. read more

It's the most valuable decision to have the Lasik Surgery. Dr.Zhu is a very profesional and kind person, and all the staff of the center were very caring and nice to me. And especially Evelyn, she took care of me and she was very patient about all my questions and concerns. I highly recommend you to do the surgery, I have been hesitating for 8years because of the fear, but I found it's really not a big deal after I did it! read more

Dr. Zhu is very knowledgeable and she cares so much about her patients. I took my mom here for a consult 2 weeks ago. She took time to explain everything to us (1st consult is free), why we should wait for procedures and everything. She's not the type to push procedures on patients. Everyone we encountered at the office were very friendly also. The optometrist who saw my mom first was also very patience and kind (it was a male doctor, I totally forgot his name). I would recommend Dr. Zhu's practice without hesitation to all my friends and family!!! I do wish that her office is a little bit closer to OC though. read more

Absolutely amazing!!! Dr. Zhu changed my life. After wearing contacts/glasses for almost 20 years, I had been looking forward to getting LASIK for soooo long. I chose Dr. Zhu as my surgeon because she has an incredible reputation and I trust her background and training. From the moment I had my first appointment, I felt like a VIP (thanks, Evelyn!). Everyone is so attentive and kind. They accommodated my work schedule (which is hectic as I am a physician as well). I've re-booked my appointments multiple times and Evelyn always found a way to squeeze me in at the times that would work best for me. Dr. Ramirez was the optometrist that evaluated my vision and he was wonderful as well. On the day of my procedure, the whole process was seamless. I went into the OR and Dr. Zhu explained every step of the entire procedure, which put me at ease. She was calm and collected, which I truly appreciate. After the procedure, I was given all the necessary drops and instructions needed for a smooth recovery. I had 20/20 vision the day after my surgery! I am about 3 weeks from my procedure and I am soooo happy with my results. It's life changing. Thanks to everyone at Hyperspeed for making this happen! read more

Dr. Zhu is amazing! She has such a positive energy that makes you feel welcome and safe! She is an incredible surgeon and just a great person in general! read more

Dr Zhu is a great doctor/surgeon. She is patient with patients and explains everything to you every step of the way. Dr Zhu is the best.

Dr. Zhu is a wonderful and knowledgeable doctor. She is the best ophthalmologist that I encountered after going to several different consultations for lasik. I felt very comfortable with Dr. Zhu, not to mention that she's a Harvard Graduate. I feel like my money is getting a lot of value for a top doctor. Her staff was polite. Her facility is new and clean. Also, the facility has advance technology and newer equipment that gives me the trust I need by decreasing the risks for errors associated with older technology. Thanks again Dr. Zhu for all your help. My overall experience has been absolutely wonderful. read more

Very friendly and easy to talk to. Enjoyed my experience going to visit I highly recommend going to her for any optical help
