I recently had cataract surgery on both eyes performed by Dr. Fishkin. At 79 years old, I have been…read moretreated by many doctors in several countries throughout my lifetime, and I can honestly say that I have never experienced such a professional, smooth, and error-free process. From the initial consultation to the surgeries and follow-up care, every aspect of the experience was handled with exceptional skill, efficiency, and attention to detail. Dr. Fishkin and his entire team exemplify the highest standards of medical care and administrative excellence. If the world operated the way Dr. Fishkin and his staff do, we would all be walking on clouds. Their professionalism, organization, and patient-centered approach should be taught in medical schools as a model of excellence. I have nothing but admiration and gratitude for Dr. Fishkin and his team. I highly recommend them to anyone considering cataract surgery or seeking outstanding eye care.

Her staff are often friendly and quick. The appointment with her also doesn't take too long. Last year she took a little longer but she was making sure of something, which I appreciated. You could tell by the way she talks to her patients that she cares and is super nice. Usually for these tests, your eyes are dilated so make sure you bring someone to drive you home! It always lasts about 3-5 hours for me. I have been going to her for a few years now and will continue to go here until my insurance stops me I guess.

Thrillled to have found extremely competent, thorough and pleasant optometrist in Dr Nikki…read moreSedaghat. My friend recommended her to me and she was spot on with her referral. Vision coverage through insurance has become so confusing and limiting to choice of covered providers. So it has been many years since I was happy and satisfied with the optometrist's expertise and customer service. So we are thankful to have found Oakland Vision Center. Your eyes are pretty darn important to your life so don't mess up going to a optometrist who may not be up to par and may not have the correct diagnostic equipment. I am bringing my whole family here from now on.

Review of Dr. Charles Reing , Presbyopia correction function…read moreof intraocular lens Wrong lens implant, and a very poor follow up of presbyopia-correcting intraocular lenses (IOLs) that can restore a full range of vision without eyeglasses. "I've done thousands of them" is what I bought into; for thousands of nonrefundable dollars per eye. Wrong lenses were put in after a 5 plus hour wait on a hospital operating table. How does this happen? The Doctors ability to perform this operation and to identify the wrong lenses immediately were his responsibility. The circumstances were poor at best and the results a disaster. The follow up visit was equally poor. He was less than professional. He told me the office was very busy with multiple competing demands, and a personal family loss distracted him during my consultation. So, he overlooked the fact that I now have to wear glasses fulltime for the rest of my life. At the cost of thousands of dollars.

The whole team took great care of me as I was very upset about a previous diagnosis from my other eye doctor. They treated me like a queen. I will never forget how I felt there and when I got home, I just thanked G-d that I chose to go there. If you are in need of retinal care, please go to this office and see Dr. Woodward. I would give this team 10 stars if I could but they only ask for 5. I will be seeing Dr. Woodward for the next several months for more treatments and I honestly am looking forward to going back there. This team is the best by far and Dr. Woodward is outstanding!!!!!!

Dr. Alino is great. She is very patient and kind and she takes time to explain everything to you…read more However, the front office staff are a rude bunch of women. They are nice when you want to book an appointment but if you have any questions later on, they transfer you to someone else and you are forced to leave a voicemail. I had a problem with my prescription for contacts and I was told that the "contact specialist" handles that. If there is a person who specializes in contacts at the office, then she should have known that the brand that I was prescribed doesn't come in my vision specifications. I think that the doctor should have known that too before giving the prescription but I understand that companies are constantly getting new brands and discontinuing old ones. I tried to tell the office that I didn't understand why I had to speak with the specialist when the physician is the one giving me the prescription. I told them that I wasn't ordering my contacts from them and I was going to buy them online. The office was still adamant that the contact specialist was the one I needed to speak to. Then, right before I was transferred to this specialist, the woman told me to "get my directions straight" and then hung up. I was in shock and disbelief that someone, who's the first person people see when they walk into the office, would be so rude and unprofessional to a patient. This person clearly needs to get a new job. Anyways, I still left a voicemail for this person and till now I still haven't gotten a call back. I even made a follow up call and was told that Angela will call me back when she can. Why say that you'll call back in "one business day" if that's not even true? I had to email my doctor through the patient portal and the next day I was told that I can come to the office to pick up the new prescription. I don't understand why it was such a problem. Thank god I'm moving out of the state and I never have to deal with this unprofessional staff.

Sheer incompetence and chaos…read more I should have checked google and yelp before going to this doctor. She's part of Valley Medical Group, so I didn't think twice. In my 43 years of going to eye doctors, this was the first time a doctor told me to come back in 4~6 weeks, because she can't measure my eyesight, because my eyes are too dry. My eyes are dilated and sticky. This was after almost two hours of being there, and a nurse painstakingly measuring my eyesight before seeing her. My eyes are dilated, and while checking the back of my eyes, I've never had a doctor shine the bright light straight into my eyes. Several times. Doctors always shine at an angle, never straight in my eyes. She uses superlative languages, such as severe mytopia, severe elongation, and risk of retinal detachment, and then proceeds to tell me, "don't worry, it's nothing." Why the hell do you even use that kind of language? People were going in and out. Asking question. She was leaving and coming back. Their staff could not measure the reading glass portion of my progressive lens. Only one person could do it and he should do it. In the process she can't find where she place my glasses. What a freak show. I come out my eyes dilated and dazed, so didn't notice but her staff scratched up my lenses all over the place. I am just furious that even after such an incompetent treatment, our medical system is such that we have no choice but to pays out. I've lost my refractive prescription portion of my insurance, and I can't really trust the one she wrote for me. What a disaster. Don't. Stay away.
