I want to be clear that this review is not about the doctors. Dr. Suk have been excellent, and I…read moretruly appreciate the care he have provided. Unfortunately, my experience with the front desk staff named Susanna at the Downey office has been very disappointing. On two consecutive days, I had interactions with the same staff member, Susanna, and both experiences left me feeling dismissed and disrespected. The first time, I called with a simple question about the insurance authorization process for an upcoming procedure because I genuinely didn't know how it worked. Instead of politely explaining the process, I was spoken to in a rude, impatient tone that made me feel as though I shouldn't have asked the question. The following day, I called to ask if my appointment could be moved from 9:40 AM to an earlier 8:30 AM slot because I was concerned about Friday morning traffic. I was immediately told there was no availability. I could totally tell that she wasn't checking. So I called the Arcadia call center just a few minutes later, they found the 8:30 AM appointment without any problem and changed it for me. When I called the Downey office back Susanna to ask about the discrepancy, I received different explanations, "Maybe someone just canceled it" and instead of a sincere apology, I was told, "My bad." Everyone can make mistakes. That wasn't what upset me the most. It was the repeated dismissive attitude, lack of professionalism, and feeling that my concerns as a patient were not taken seriously. I hope management addresses this because the doctors provide excellent care, and patients deserve to be treated with the same level of courtesy and respect by the front office staff

The FAA requires pilots have a physical exam at prescribed intervals based on the type of pilot certification held. Because I am a Captain for a major airline, it has to be every six months. Once a year I have to provide test results based on the prescribed elements of my medical certification. Every year, Dr. Murthy puts me at ease with his wonderful bedside manner and his own personal knowledge of the system since he is an advanced pilot himself with actual jet experience. Thanks to his very thorough care and excellent staff, I have satisfied the FAA with flying colors on my tests. I take one eye drop at night based on his orders and it is doing the trick! My pressures are well within the FAA's guidelines along with my field of vision tests. I was so impressed with his care that I sent my wife to him and he put her at ease regarding her concerns about her vision after a thorough exam. Salute to Dr. Murthy and a Bravo Zulu as well@!

I was referred to Dr. Murthy by my husband's best friend, who has been a patient of his for many…read moreyears. Dr. Murthy discovered something that two other retina specialists had not mentioned to me. I understand why one of them might not have, as he performed my vitrectomy pars plana surgery. I was unaware that a layer had been left behind during the surgery. Recently, I noticed a very unusual brownish floater. Fortunately, whatever was obstructing my vision disappeared the following day. Given that my surgeon did not remove that particular layer, there is a possibility of a detachment. I am now contemplating whether this was intentionally overlooked, potentially necessitating another surgical procedure. I am very grateful that Dr. Murthy came highly recommended by my husband's best friend.

Dr. Montoya and Dr. Guillermo took the time to explain everything clearly and made me feel truly cared for.

I brought my mom in for a follow-up appointment, and the front office staff told us that no one was allowed to accompany her because it was "office policy." This was confusing because I have read comments, including one from Dr. Montoya, stating that patients are allowed to have at least one person accompany them and the last time I came I was able to be with my mom. In addition, the way the front office staff spoke to us felt rude and unprofessional, which unfortunately took away from the positive experience we had with Dr. Montoya. Because of this, I would not recommend this office to others and we will not be returning again.

Dr. Roizenblatt is truly one of the best physicians we have ever had the privilege of seeing through all of the health challenges our family has faced over the years. He is incredibly knowledgeable, thorough, and compassionate. He took the time to explain everything, answer every question, and made us feel confident that my husband was in the best possible hands. What stood out the most was his dedication. He even spent his own lunch break performing my husband's procedure so treatment would not be delayed. That level of commitment and selflessness is something you do not see every day. We are beyond grateful for the exceptional care we received and would recommend Dr. Roizenblatt and his team without hesitation. They turned a frightening experience into one where we felt supported every step of the way. The Terrero Family

Two weeks later I was experiencing extreme eye pressure and was in a state of tears from the constant eye stabbing pain. I was able to get a hold of Dr Khanna on a Saturday.
