I wasn't impressed with my doctor, but I guessed he was a bit curt because he was overloaded with a large volume of patients. He was and is very knowledgeable, and after my first lazer treatment, my appreciation for him has risen. I was very impressed, and as he spoke each step of the lazer placement, his voice filled me with confidence that now, my eyes would improve. Thank you Dr Trotter, for your knowledge, kindness and expertise. I feel safe with you. (My only very real complaint is there is always about an hour wait, which is very inconvenient.)

Every…read moreannual eye exam I've had since the doctor always said whoever did your Lasik did a fabulous job. But now 20 years later and both Dr Shapiro and his assistant Stacey have been absolutely remarkable and responsive. I'm having Vision issues and thought who's going to provide me with the best referral of who to see. Provided with the name of top ophthalmologist Dr Lee Wan in Oxnard who is absolutely amazing and really listen to my concern even though he initially thought everything looked good. Stacy called from Dr Shapiro's office a few different times saying they were concerned and just wanted to follow up that I had pursued additional appointments and was drilling down on my vision issues. The concern was absolutely amazing since I haven't been there in 20 plus years. I've never experienced anything like it. Without revealing too much Medical I would not be as far along seeing specialist after specialist, down to UCLA Stein Eye Institute Etc without their recommendations and guidance as I've seen so many specialists here in Ventura Thank you Stacey and Dr Shapiro for stressing the importance of Immediate Care and drilling down to get to the root cause. It's been a hell of a journey and I'm not done.

From their welcoming/friendly attitudes, to their efficiency and helpfulness, they exhibited excellence in all they do. I can't say enough about Dr. Stevens - great understanding of how to foster Patient/Doctor relationships. I had some concerns regarding past vision problems (and potential future issues as well) which he took the time to address very thoroughly. He also provided a plethora of medical insight regarding LASIK vs PRK procedures (which was super helpful). His exam rhythm, vocal tone and quick wit humor throughout my visit - too cool for school! The various eye testing offered and provided was very impressive, as was the detailed review of these results provided by Dr. Stevens. I left FVC with a feeling that my vision was in very capable, very caring hands. Kudos to all!

I had pterygion in both eyes for at least 30 years, which is a long time to deal with it but I got used to it and to the almost constant pain! I was too terrified of surgery to get them removed. A month ago my ophthalmologist said: "they are growing and you should consider surgery". I made a first appointment with his recommended specialist it was in 7 weeks. Not wanting to wait, a week later we found Dr. Michel on line and called on a Wednesday. First impression: I had a kind person on the phone and I was NEVER put on hold or dismissed!!! And I got a first appointment for the following Wednesday! Only a week! Wow! It is a 3 1/2 hour drive to Oxnard from here but it seemed worth it. The day before I get a call from the super kind and responsive office to confirm and asking: will your visit be in person or on the phone. Well, I didn't even know I had the option! So I emailed the photos of my eyes and Dr Michel called me exactly at the scheduled time and went over the options right away. Clear, detailed and caring and kinder than I had ever been treated by a health professional. It turned out my insurance didn't cover everything, but at this point I was convinced I wouldn't let anyone else take care of my eyes so I agreed to have the procedure done ... IN A WEEK! I was terrified and panicking, the anxiety level was ridiculously high but I managed to get there the next Wednesday and Thursday at 9 am we were at their office and met this incredibly caring , patient and professional crew and finally, Dr Michel in person. I was nervous but their care, as if I was the most important person on Earth, helped tremendously. I was having the procedure first on my left eye, where the pterygion had been the most significant, invasive and painful. Honestly, preoccupation is a waste of energy with this clinic! We went back to the hotel to sleep the rest of the day and night. Amazingly, without any fear or anxiety he repeated the process the next day on my right eye. Right after the procedure we went to a delicious restaurant and when the waitress saw my covered eye she asked what happened and I explained. Her words after she found out she knows of him: "Oh, he's an amazing doctor, my mother had that surgery done by him like 12 years ago!" After great food we drove back home, with Dr. Michel's phone number in hand, just in case... Here's the thing: a doctor that isn't afraid to give his patients his phone number and actually answers or replies to texts at anytime is a doctor who knows his specialty and is passionate about his patients and his work. You don't get that every day.

My recovery, at this 4 month mark, has been great! I have NO REGRETS having my surgery done, only gratitude! My vision is better and I am now comfortable looking people in the eyes! My opthomologist in TX is highly impressed by Dr. Michel's work. I was informed of Dr. Michel's ptergium surgery ability 12 years ago by my optometrist, Dr. Griffith, in the Target optical dept. in Newbury Park, CA. He initially found my ptergium growth. He gave me Dr. Michel's card and I held on to it all this time. I'm sure glad I did! Dr. Michel is caring, concerned and a clear communicator. His right-arm tech, Naomi, is fantastic with communication and follow through on call backs and providing valuable information pre AND post op! My surgery experience could not have been better.
