They perceive mistakes they make with customers as adversarial. They are argumentative and unhelpful. Very frustrating. I left several messages with the optometrist and they never called me back to let me know of any problems. Zero follow up including the office manager who said this should not have happened and would call me back that day. Never did. I am kicking myself for using these people. What a frustrating experience! Never again!

I cannot speak on whether these comments reflect any management awareness, but as a patient, it made the environment extremely uncomfortable to hear what I understood and perceived as carelessly ignorant. Living in California for a long time, these were not words I expected to hear and very inappropriate for the workplace let alone a "professional" clinic. The rest of my experience here has been great; amazing doctors and aides who have persistently helped me through my slough of issues, which makes this all the more unfortunate. I will not be returning and would strongly encourage a refresher of basic empathy, inclusiveness, and client-sided professionalism.

When I asked to see the Dr, the assistant said no. I have now wasted a lot of my time and do not know anything that I didn't already know before.

I'm trying to think of a time when a Dr acted like this before, but even the Army doctors I saw during Vietnam were way more useful

Dr Bidar was so kind and I was assured of a successful recovery because he has performed thousands of these operations. The aftercare has been wonderful, and everyone comments on how rested I look. The physical results are perfect, but my main reason to do this was to improve my vision. I was shocked at once by how clear it is again, and I don't have to keep raising my eyebrows to see well. I recommend him 100%. He does Botox as well. You can find him at Vantage Eye Care in Monterey and Salinas. The staff is also excellent and very easy to work with.

While it appears that Dr. Del Piero has a history of successfully treating people as he has a…read morethriving business, I was not impressed with his bedside manner, nor how he delivered me a major and unexpected diagnosis by telling me I was the "poster child" for said condition. I also didn't appreciate how I was unable to get a callback from his office on my questions regarding a multivitamin he recommended me to take. So despite living 1 hour away from his office, I booked a separate in person meeting just to ask questions, and every question I asked was met with either arrogance, or a defensive tone. Even with simple questions like "when should I come to see you next considering my condition?" -- he could not respond without some level of drama. Maybe he was having a bad day, but still, I have never had a doctor treat me the way he did that day.

I am sure he used to be good but he tried to rush me into cataract surgery for both eyes although…read moremy right eye is really fine (20/20). When I didn't receive the pre-op eye drops and also realizing that Dr. Friedman was not concerned about my dry eyes, I decided to delay the surgery. It was over NY's Eve, so the office was closed, and I couldn't reach anyone. When I called Monday, the day before the surgery, they said it was fine that I hadn't received the drops and no big deal about my dry eyes. I canceled anyway and then received an unitemized bill for $400+ for, according to the billing dept, "special tests." She said that, as a favor, they would apply my surgery deposit of $300+ to that second bill - so, basically, she kept it. Two months later, I got a $90 refund. The math doesn't even add up but I am glad I still have my eyes in tact. I mentioned Dr. Friedman to two locals and both had the same reaction, "He's horrible!" I went to another surgeon whom several people recommended. He treated my astigmatism and instructed me to use drops, which he provided, for my dry eyes. He also said there was no reason to perform surgery on my right eye. So...a totally different experience and no rushing. I don't like to leave bad reviews for people but this is too important not to mention. You only get one set of eyes.
