    I couldn't believe the eye care I received up here in the hills. Dr Ardron is an excellent Dr. and surgeon.

    Having had a host of vision problems since birth, I have been to just about every eye specialist in…read morethe world. Dr. Iwata was the first OD EVER to fully explain the situation and to offer me a range of options. I wear contact lenses and when I expressed an interest in getting glasses as a backup, he asked me what time of day I would likely be wearing them and suggested I schedule an exam for that time of day so prescription would be correct for tired eyes at that time of day. You won't get that at LensCrafters! When my pre-teen daughter turned out to be mildly nearsighted, Dr. Iwata actually suggested we NOT get glasses for a couple of years because it was his experience that girls that age would probably not wear them anyway out of vanity. He was absolutely correct and didn't try to sell us a pair of expensive glasses. HIGHLY Recommended!

    I have always liked the office staff--they are great. But when is it appropriate to speak up when…read moreyou feel dismissed? After being told I have cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, and upper eyelid drooping, I expected to be referred to an ophthalmologist. Instead, I was told it was "not bad enough yet." I wondered, how bad does it have to be? The doctor said, "Don't worry, haha, I won't let you go blind." That did not feel appropriate or reassuring to hear as a patient. I expected my concerns to matter and hoped for some compassion, such as an offer to refer me for a second opinion. Instead, I had to call my endocrinologist to get the referral myself. I have been struggling with my vision for a while. I cannot see up close without glasses, my vision is cloudy and fuzzy, and I am unable to drive at night. When I saw the ophthalmologist, he said these issues had been developing for some time. I told him I had only been diagnosed in 2022, and he said the condition appeared to have been present for about 10 years and was serious. I called the doctor's office, left a message with this information, and when they called back, they said the new doctor could be my family doctor going forward. It felt as though, because I raised my concerns, they no longer wanted to see my family. That was not what I was looking for. I was simply hoping for a little compassion from the doctor.
