I have nothing bad to say about the Doctor who seems very experienced and qualified at his field. However, I will warn any patient that is considering to visit this office about the delays in receiving prescription glasses. I am at week 5 now and still no conclusive answer on when my glasses will be ready for pick up. I ordered my glasses on 12/23/2021. At the time, I was told the shipment should take about 2 weeks (which is pretty standard). It has been now more than a month. No calls incoming from the office regarding the delays. Every time I call to check on the status I am given a new timeline. I also do not find the blame shift to the lab professional. I was told the optometry office sent the order couple days late when I initially called, so that to me sounds like a delay caused by the optometry and not the lab. If the lab was responsible for this delay, shouldn't the optometry have ways to track the orders and course correct the issue with the lab before it is escalated by the customer? At the end of the day, I have control over the optometrist I pick and not the lab. Any issue caused by the lab is the optometrists responsibility as it is the choice of his office. If the delays are really caused by the "lab", the office should take action and either fix the issue with the lab or move on to another partnership. I don't see why I should be spending my time placing various calls to get the status update for my delayed glasses order. read more

Excellent optometrist. Have always had a good experience. They are willing to give prescriptions instead of purchasing through their office.

This optometry is great! The Dr really takes his time explaining things and answering your questions. The girls in the front desk are amazing! Emma and Kelly are friendly and they make sure that every customer has a 10/10 experience! Would definitely recommend this place for anyone getting glasses read more

Still try to scam us again?? I already tOlD u long time ago that my family found different office. U still dare to contact me again and again and agaIn to have use exam in youR office. I still put your star as 0 read more

I was in search of a good eye Dr a couple years ago and posted something on Facebook. Almost everyone recommended Dr. Pegueros and so I made an appointment. When making my appointments, I request that they schedule my kids and I together. There is never a fuss or fight from the staff at all, they're always willing to work with my crazy schedule and even managed to see the 3 of us on a Saturday! Talk about awesome! My only recommendation, if contacts are on back order, just let the patient know with a quick call. I had to call to find out the status of my contacts & that's when they advised me of the back order. Over all, 5 stars! Still the best! read more

Dr. Don Pegueros really knows how to take care of his patients! A very warm heart working behind capable hands- a great guy with a friendly, expert practice. Eye can't do better. read more

I was looking for a great eye Doctor and I definitively founded it. Don Pegueros is extremely knowlegable and a well qualified professional. He came highly recommended by several friends who also had great experiences at his office. His staff is very friendly and experienced as well as flexible. They made me feel really welcome throughout all my visits. His frame selection is impressive, and he carries really exotic and european brands that are really hard to find. I look really cool and sleek now :) My husband and my Mother will soon go visit Don Pegueros OD. read more

I am so glad that i was referred to Dr. Pegueros. He has a good chairside manner is meticulous in his work and has has done an excellent job in restoring my eyesight. I would highly recommend him. Thanks Dr. Pegueros!! read more

I have been going to Dr. Don Pegueros for over 5 years. From general check ups to after hours emergencies Dr. Don has always been there to take care of my needs with the utmost care. His equipment is always cutting edge,and makes me feel my eyes are getting the best care available. His frame selection is also amazing. I don't even know where to begin, sometimes I have to get an extra pair of glasses just because i can't decide between all the awesome frames. Thanks for taking care of my eyes Dr. Don read more

I made a visit for an exam recently and both my partner and I were very intrigued by how amazing Dr. Don Pegueros was. The wait was a bit longer than expected but the time spent was worth it! He is knowledgeable, loves to teach, and will provide white glove service happily and naturally. Will definitely be returning here, and highly recommend! read more

My reading glasses were starting to lose a screw on the frame, and I had a backup pair that had lost a screw. I went back to Dr. Pegueros' office and Alana fixed both!! That alone saved me hundreds of dollars from having to buy new pairs. She was so professional and personable. My son and I have been going there for years and I continue to be a very satisfied client! read more

Dr. Don Pegueros has been our family's optometrist for over 10 years. He did a great job fitting all of us who needed glasses or contacts including our teen daughters, myself, and my husband--including the fittings he needed after his first and then second cataract surgeries. I have been thrilled with his good service and his sensitivity to the specific needs of family members. It's most definitely not the generic mall approach nor the Kaiser approach. We have had two different optical insurance carriers over the years. His office staff has dealt properly with both carriers and all of our questions regarding insurance coverage. We have chosen to purchase all of our glasses from him as well (though he doesn't push one to do so) & have found the selection to be very good. I have particularly liked the high-end frames that he carries. And if one of us has any problem with breakage of a frame or glasses (which happened twice in our 10 years), he has been more than reasonable in dealing with the problem. If you're ready for a new optometrist, I highly recommend you see Dr. Don Pegueros! read more

Don has been taking care of my family for the last 13 years. He's more like a friend than a doctor now! He has always provided great care, insights and help with our varying degrees of corrective need. The office staff is great with follow-up and helps us maximize the benefits of our optometric insurance. Definitely check out Dr. Don for your eye care needs! read more

Great office! Kid friendly, too. My child and I are both patients. Dr. Pegueros takes his time to answer all your questions and explain things. The office staff is also very helpful. The appointment does not feel rushed. The office's frames selection seemed a bit small, but they let me look through catalogs to find some other styles I might like. They ordered several pairs of frames, so that I could come in a few days later and try them out, with no obligation. Very cool! Tip: The office is in a residential neighborhood, and almost looks like a house. Don't worry- you aren't lost. I almost drove past the first time I went there. read more

Dr. Pegueros is awesome! I found him because I had seen numerous ads about "Hubble Contacts" and I found his office as one that provides them. I was used to always going to Costco but since I have good benefits now I figured it was time to move on. Dr. Pegueros has an awesome energy and makes the appointment an enjoyable experience. I especially like that they don't use that machine that blows air in to you eye!! Anyways, he went above and beyond when I ran out of contacts and needed my Rx ASAP! I can contact him anytime for questions and he's been so helpful. He is AWESOME ! read more

We recently moved to Fremont (well actually a couple of years ago) and finally decided to find an eye doctor here. I went to Dr Don on my wife's suggestion and it turned out to be a good decision. I was able to get an appointment within 2 days time and that too late afternoon, so I didn't have to come back from work in the middle of the day. Furthermore, the front desk was kind and gave me the right info when asked. I had waited barely 5 min after filling out the forms, that doctor called me in. The overall procedure was standard, with courtesy maintained throughout. The assistants were easy to talk to and didn't mind small talk in between procedures. Dr. Don himself was awesome. His mannerisms were very respectful as well as he was really patients with all the Qs I threw at him. Some of the Qs were more theoretical than pertinent to my visit / state of eyes, but he was patient and responded to all of them. Lastly, the 5 STAR worth of behavior came at the end... when I was not forced to buy frame /lenses. This was probably my first visit in US where I was not cajoled or pressured to order glasses on the spot. Overall, I think I have found my eye doctor and will recommend him to friends and family in a heartbeat. read more

I left a more thorough review on www.MyMedWorld.com so please go there to read about my review of Dr. Don Pegueros!

About two weeks ago when we were having gusty winds I was talking to a client outdoors and had to make eye contact while going over a job. I had my face towards the wind. All of a sudden I got something in my eye. I was in pain and thought it was a stone that just wouldn't come out. I washed the eye and nothing. This was on a Saturday. I decided to just wait it out and take the pain. I am not a fan of painkillers. Had to keep my eyes closed and waited to see if it got better. I was temped to go to ER but decided to see a specialist instead on Monday given I skip insurance lol. Sunday was a long day and one I would like to forget. The eye was bright red, strong pain and I was getting this pain all the way in my forehead. On Monday with eye half open I turned to yelp to find an eye specialist. This wasn't easy because I am extremely picky. I have many friends that are doctors but I don't trust their recommendations. I called about 10 different places and after asking a few questions I decided on one but they didn't have anything until Tuesday. Something about the Dr. not working Mondays. They said that if I needed something that fast and trustworthy to call Dr. Pegueros. I called right away and they took me right away to have me checked out. Turns out that I had an injury in my cornea and an infection was forming. Fortunately, Dr. Pegueros helped me to prevent further infection and did a phenomenal job at preventing a scar in my eye. My eye is perfect now, like it never even happened. Thank you Dr. Pegueros. I had been procrastinating finding an eye Dr. for my parents and my sister. I was afraid of that whole process of finding the right Dr. Looks like I found my eye Dr. I already had my dad checked up by Dr. Pegueros and he will be getting some nice glasses. We are not a fan of regular glasses so we got some that look like they were picked out of Bloomingdales. They have a great selection of frames. Highly recommend Dr. Don Pegueros. read more

I have been going to Dr. Don Pegueros for the last 4 years and I can only say that he is the best! His practice is very clean and the staff friendly and knowledgeable. Last month when I went in for my yearly checkup, I noticed upgraded machines and that made the whole visit go by quicker! Dr. Pegueros is very cool and down to earth. I am sure he is great with children and will make their experience fun! Extremely recommend! read more

Dr. Pegueros is a doctor of excellence. I wear contact lenses, and I have slight astigmatism. He did not stop dialing in my vision until I was satisfied with my final prescription. The staff is very friendly. I am very satisfied, and I will return next year. read more

I have been going to Pegueros Optometry for over 23 years. I have never felt hurried nor have I ever been unhappy with any services that I have received there. The staff is down to earth and give honest opinions, and I have never left with a pair of glasses that didn't look good on me or weren't comfortable. This is the place to go! read more

Dr. Pegueros has been providing me with great vision care for years now. He is easy to get a hold of, professional and seems up to date on new procedures and equipment. His staff is well trained and very helpful in helping pick out frames for glasses, etc. I highly recommend Dr. Pegueros for vision care, contacts, glasses, etc. read more

I had been searching for a couple years for a new eye doctor after I stopped seeing my last one. I had visited a few before stumbling upon Dr Pegueros' office (that is conveniently located close to my own neighborhood). I was pleasantly surprised to find a local office that has a great selection of high end frames and phenomenal front office staff to boot. Dr Pegueros is friendly, very patient with my kids and works hard to make sure you have a proper prescription. Their front office staff is pleasant, communicative of my order status and very accommodating when I need to pickup and fit my glasses. My glasses are always finished ahead of my expectations. I will be coming here for a long time. read more

The office staff is dense. I called to check if I could get my son a new contact lens prescription because the one I had expired or if he needed an appointment to be seen for a new rx. The office told me that I could stop by and pick up the prescription slip. I rush there after work on a Friday prescription slip has EXPIRED written on it. Why would I go pick up a rx slip with EXPIRED on it if I needed to get him more contact lenses? They tell me he needs to be seen for a new one. Well, a phone call telling me that would have saved me the trip and frustration. Simple communication could have kept us as patients. read more

This Optometrist office is AAAaaamaazing... No wonder they have five stars. I've been going here for a year now and Dr. Don Pegueros is so nice! I've never met a doctor that was on top of everything. He answers your questions quick and gets your appointments done fast. He's very friendly and loves to converse about anything and everything. You can definitely tell he knows what he's doing. He's also awesome for giving me samples too! The wait for an appointment here is not long at all. Since I've been going here the longest I've waited was about 5-10 minutes. However, it may also depend on how busy they really are at the time of your appointment. All the assistants here are also very friendly, Kimberlyn is great she is very helpful, she helped me pick out my new eye glasses. I had different options to pick from and she gave me honest opinions about each one. In the end we decided on these really cute FENDI eyeglasses. I also had my really torn out Juicy Couture eye glass case and she gave me a new one for free which is awesome! Also, when I was completely out of contacts they were willing to take me in that same day for an appointment. This is great because not a lot of Doctor Offices will do that. The only con about this place was when ordering glasses it takes about ten business days. However, I am assuming that's how it is in every optometrist office. The great part is when ordering contacts it is a lot faster I believe it was about three days. Anyways, to sum it all up I am going to continue being a patient here because I don't believe I will find a better place and it's only five minutes away from my house! I highly recommend Dr. Don Pegueros office he will not let you down! read more

Let me tell you a story. Dr. Raul Pegueros was my eye doctor for many years as a kid, I did not need glass. After I grew up I moved on. Fast forward to wearing glasses and two others in my family and my current doctor informing me that he no longer accepted our insurance. I had to find a new doctor and I looked up Raul and I find that Don had taken over the practice. On the first visit I realized I would be here a long time. The staff is great and Don is an amazing professional. The family loves him and he goes beyond the call to help. My daughter was having trouble with her new contacts and he spent so much time teaching her the proper way to insert and remove. I cannot say enough about him. Dr Don P. Rocks!!! read more
