    Diana W.

    Called about 5 different ophthalmologists trying to find someone who will remove the stye, they all wanted a ridiculous amount just to see the problem. Called Kagan institute and they said send us pictures and we'll tell you if we can help you. Sent them the pictures and they called me the next day, gave me a price and they got me in that same day. This stye has been bothering me for months, no one wanted to bother with it and I tried "home remedies" and the thing would not go away. I was getting self conscious about it but thanks to Kagan Institute, my eye looks normal again! Pictures show before removal of stye, you can see how big it is. The same day as removal, the next day, 1 week out and 3 weeks out. And I asked if they had pics or videos of them removing it that they could send me and they did! If you're a weirdo like me that wants to see the process! Totally recommend!

Dr Vance Washington, per my husband was super nice and thorough. He took his time to rule out other possibilities of infection or diseases and reviewed my husband's medical history. My husband was very pleased and impressed with this UCLA Immediate Care office. P.S. as a follow up to my husband's appointment Dr. Vance Washington emailed and asked how my husband was feeling. That is true patient care! Thank you!

Another time I had a doctor named Venus who repeatedly asked if I had guns in the home, if I was going to harm myself or others after I told her I was emotional about feeling like I was going to have a heart attack because I have a baby now and it's very important I stay alive. She responded "well do you wanna be alive?", just completely not understanding my fear or my repeated desires that I would prefer to be alive. Her parting words were to give me a hotline number if I felt I was going to harm myself even though I had made it abundantly clear that again, I wanted to live and was scared I was dying. And thirdly I had Dr. Lee who I am convinced is just a robot. He had the compassion and empathy of a toothpick and when I tried to just express a concern, he mansplained seven times in a row that because I don't have those symptoms now he wouldn't prescribe anything. No shit! No acknowledgement of understanding my feelings or medical history, just gave me robotic, repetitive responses.

I felt I was in safe and expert hands the entire time, and am thrilled to say that my sight has been transformed -- allowing me to see with greater depth and clarity than before. Moreover, my Patient Counselor, Diana Andre, made the whole process seamless and excellent: keeping me informed of every step involved, answering all my questions with compassion and knowledge, and helping me prepare for everything both before and after the surgery with utmost care, professionalism, support, and expertise. I am so grateful to both of them, and highly recommended Dougherty Laser Vision! -- Alex Klibaner
