Dr. Sierra is my hero! She took my mom's very difficult case, that other doctors turned down and was willing to operate on her to fix another doctor's mistake. It was two surgeries in one on the left eye and later surgery on the right eye. It is really amazing the surgical skills Dr.Sierra has and on top of it she is a nicest and sweetest person you will ever meet. My mom loves her dearly and if you're ever so lucky to have her as your doctor, you are in good hands. read more

I had cataract eye surgery with no lasers along with the envy multifocal implants in both eyes. Surgery and healing went great no need for glasses anymore my vision is clear. Sacramento eye consultants staff was nice. The building was very clean and professional. The wait time to be seen did get lengthy. Dr. Sierra always answered all my questions and took time to explain everything to me, which made it a lot more comfortable and worth the wait time. Trish the surgery coordinator was excellent And prompt to resolve an issue we had with medication delivery. Thank you to all the staff. sincerely, Frank Ruiz read more

Dr. Sierra is a highly skilled, professional, compassionate, and caring Ophthalmologist. I had a corneal treatment in the office today. She explained everything throughout the procedure and made sure I was comfortable all of the time. The office staff was friendly and very efficient. My overall experience was excellent. I highly recommend Dr Sierra for her high level of skill and her warm and kind personality. read more

I tried several times calling the office to book a consultation with Dr Patricia Sierra for an EVO ICL but no one answered after put on hold for 10-15 mins each time. Finally, after several attempts and put on hold for over 20 mins, I was told that I need a referral from my primary optometrist to be sent to there office. I contacted my Dr and a referral was sent to them. I never heard from them. I called again and after put on hold for over 25 mins, finally someone answered. After answering all her questions, she said that Anthony wants to speak with me and she will transfer me to him. Mr. Wonderful Anthony haven't picked up the phone, and I was supposed to talk to him then according to her. I still left him a detailed voicemail but until now I still hear from Mr. Wonderful Anthony. The most UNPROFESSIONAL STAFF that needs an immediate change. This staff doesn't deserve a job, It deserved to fired! read more

How dose a man come to see a surgeon with Eye infection in one eye and end up with nothing but problems with the two cataract surgeries and partial implant? My right eye was 20/200 can was not forged with cataracts to which a contact lens could have been used later or what ever, something than operation because she chould make more money. She only gave me a partial transplant knowing the scar tissue would block. my line of vision but sas she stated They just dont do them anymore. Now not only do I have a 20/200 eye that has had surgery done on it but a left eye which she waited months after so many painfull shots in my eyeball actually cleared up the fog only to have her pull out a knife and cut in the middle of my vision. I guess she could'nt have me getting lazer or something else. I kept telling her and asking everyone who who worked for her if she completly understood English. I told her of my lazy eye and that other Doctors were changing tip on needle due to thickness when she was gone. read more

Dr. Sierra performed cataract surgery on both eyes. I found her care to be excellent. In addition, her interaction with me as a patient was very pleasant. I highly recommend Dr. Sierra. read more

Thank you so much for your excellent care and kindness. I am blessed to have you as my eye doctor.

I have been a patient of Dr. Patricia Sierra for several years. I was originally referred to Her from a previous Ophthalmologist because i had injured my Cornea and he was unable to treat the injury. Dr. Patricia Sierra has successfully treated my injury. Dr. Patricia B. Sierra MD has proven to be one of the best Ophthalmologist's in Northern California and I will continue to see her on a regular basis. read more

FIVE STARS ISN'T ENOUGH! this review pertains mostly to dr. sierra and her incredible eye surgery skills and overall demeanor, personality, and professionalism, but also speaks to the great office/support staff at the sacramento eye consultants office in lincoln. when i was diagnosed with cataracts in both eyes by my optometrist, it actually came as quite a surprise, and i was naturally somewhat unnerved. However, very fortunately for me, he referred me to dr. sierra. During the initial pre-op meeting, she allayed all my fears. She took the time to answer all my questions and concerns about the surgery itself and what to expect afterwards. she is straightforward and to the point, but is genuinely concerned about her patients and their feelings. she performed both surgeries and they both were successful without any complications. hopefully i wont develop any other eye problems requiring surgery, but if i do, dr. sierra will be my first choice to do them. my pre-op and both my post-op exams were where i came into contact with the wonderful support staff working at the lincoln facility. every one of them i came into contact with were extremely helpful, efficient, professional, and very knowledgeable. they all, like dr. sierra, seem to really care about the welfare of the patient and their feelings. BOTTOM LINE: if youre considering getting cataract surgery, call dr. sierra!! thank you again, dr, siera!! read more

Yesterday I had the cataract evaluation and pre-operative appointment (which was originally to take place last week). I could not be more pleased with the professional and caring staff I encountered at this appointment. Dr Sierra also was very apologetic about the errors the staff had previously made, and she went out of her way to express compassion and understanding about my previous concerns. Everything regarding my eye evaluation and upcoming surgery was very thoroughly explained and I now am feeling very positive. I will update this review once more after surgery This is a further update 3 months post surgery. Dr Sierra did the cataract removal surgery on both of my eyes. I had a couple of complications post surgery and I found her to be very thorough and attentive to the issues. I'm happy to say that the most serious issue (heightened IOP) has been resolved. The other issue is a dark shadow on one side of my vision, which happens in a fraction of patients and resolves itself in most. There are a small fraction of patients in which the dark shadow continues to inhabit their vision even months after surgery, sometimes permanently, and sadly for me, I may be one of the latter. I would still have had the surgery done, even with this outcome. My eyesight is vastly improved. Dr. Sierra did an excellent job. read more

Thank you Dr. Sierra so much for putting my worries to rest. Your so sweet, generous, talented and adorable. Always enjoy our office visits. Thank you Isabel for helping me with my insurance issue. Your awesome... read more

Dr Sierra is awesome. She did my cornea transplant in January, and she's the first opthamologist in Sacramento that I've liked. She talks to you like you're a real person, which is really important to me, and she's willing to listen and take your views and needs into consideration. I totally recommend her if you need a cornea specialist. I know, not a common need, but there you have it. read more

Dr. Sierra is a wonderful eye doctor. Her bedside manner is the best and she is extremely helpful with everything!

I saw 3 other corneal specialists before seeing Doctor Sierra. None of them had successfully treated my corneal dystrophy. When I saw Dr. Sierra she examined me and said, "You can't go on like this". She scheduled me for procedures on each eye and I have not had any corneal issues since. She heard me out. She changed my life. Five stars isn't nearly enough to express my gratitude. read more

First off, I'd like to say that if there were more stars available I would punch them in. This office is a great place to go for your vision health period. I always receive the best customer service from the staff as well as my favorite Doctor Patricia Sierra. I know at many people may dread going to any kind of medical facility, but I actually enjoy my visits because of the positive energy that flows throughout the office. God bless them! And thanks again for everything! read more

Dr. Patricia Sierra performed cataract surgery on both of my eyes several years ago. I was so impressed with her and delighted at my vision afterwards. I had been extremely nearsighted or most of my life, so being able to see long distances clearly was thrilling. In the last few years, my right eye vision had begun to blur again; I finally learned that I had a secondary cataract or "posterior capsule opacification." When I returned to Dr. Sierra last week, she laser-blasted the clouded lens capsule for a few minutes in the office. Now my distance vision is again 20/20. Dr. Sierra was initially referred by my insurance company after checking blah reviews on the first opthalmologic surgeon whose name I was given. Your eyes deserve the best care, so trust them to Dr. Patricia Sierra. read more

Dr Sierra did cataract surgery on my left eye in June and the entire experience exceeded all of my expectations. She is highly skilled and truly cares about her patients, even giving me her personal cell phone number prior to the surgery. I had no complications other than a toric lens she was going to use to correct an astigmatism was not going to work (she found out during surgery) and used another method (incisions) instead. She and her office made sure that I was not charged for the toric lens procedure by either the surgical center or her office. I would give Dr Sierra 10 stars if it were available. read more

My 82 year-old father contracted a terrible eye infection while traveling. When he landed on my doorstep he was in terrible shape. After seeing an optometrist who referred us to an ophthalmologist who referred us to a retina specialist who referred us to a cornea specialist, we FINALLY landed in the excellent and expert care of Dr. Sierra. Dr. Sierra stayed late in the evening to see my father that first day. She began an aggressive treatment that culminated in a cornea transplant. She even had him come in on a Sunday morning for follow-up because she felt this was in his best interest. Dr. Sierra restored my father's eye to good health! Her staff was also very kind and caring toward my dad, even calling me a few weeks after he returned to Houston to check on his progress. I cannot say enough about how much I appreciate Dr. Sierra and her staff!! read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Patricia Sierra for several years. She is warm, extremely caring and very professional. I have had issues with my corneas since childhood and I have them checked fairly regularly. She has also performed some minor surgery ( an eyelid cyst removal) in the office. She works quickly, with amazing skill, and the procedure was painless. Her office staff is very friendly and accommodating. If you are looking for a highly skilled and caring Ophthalmologist in the Sacramento Region, Dr. Patricia Sierra is an excellent choice. read more

By the time my incipient cataract finally "ripened" to the point where I needed surgery, surprise! My other eye also had one ripe for picking. My insurance rep recommended Dr. Sierra, although my optometrist had recommended someone else. Dr. Sierra's reviews here and on HealthGrades convinced me to choose her. I was further encouraged when the other two doctors in her office asked her to consult on their patients as well. She performed both my outpatient cataract surgeries, one month apart. My huge apprehension was alleviated after the first painless surgery had very minimal recovery time (perhaps an hour), and the second one was just as easy. For the first time in 60 years, I can see clearly without thick Rx glasses or contacts. Over-the-counter readers do the trick for close work. It has been 18 months since my surgeries, and my vision is still clear. Thank you, Dr. Sierra. You do really awesome work. read more

I've had two cataract surgeries performed by Dr. Sierra this year. I've been very impressed by the office staff and Dr. Sierra herself. With the current IOLs, my vision is better than ever! The office runs pretty smoothly despite a high number of patients. They usually get you into an exam room with no wait. Once the optical tech is finished, there can be a few minutes' wait for the doctor because of the number of patients. Dr. Sierra is personable and good at listening to concerns as well as explaining conditions and available treatments. She also seemed very skilled at surgery. I could not be happier with my treatment. Thanks, Dr. Sierra! read more

Dr. Sierra performed cataract surgery on both of my eyes the first half of May 2014. and I have been impressed with her courteous, conscientious and professional demeanor . She made me feel cared for and about. Her personality immediately sets you at ease at the same time that she instills confidence in her skills. My vision is greatly improved and I have already recommended her to others. read more

This doctor is a miracle worker! Saved my sight! I cannot thank her enough!! She is amazing, the best!

After two corneal procedures performed by Dr. Patricia Sierra, I've gone from having to, for years, rely on corrective eyeglasses for every activity to practically having no need for corrective eyeglasses. Approximately 20 years before treatment by Dr. Sierra, I developed very aggressive temporal and nasal pterygium, in both eyes. The pterygium was successfully removed from both eyes by my then current ophthalmologist. A couple of years after the pterygium excision, Salzmann's Nodules Degeneration, which, sometimes, is associated with swelling that can be caused by eye surgery, began to appear on both eyes. So, one problem was corrected, only to have another problem materialize, a problem that I'd have to periodically address, due to its progressive nature, and a problem that would constantly alter my vision as the nodules' development progressed and modified the shape of my corneas. During a period of approximately 10 to 12 years, I had the Salzmann's nodules removed from my left eye several times and obtained different prescriptions for updated eyeglasses countless times, due to the ever-changing shape of my corneas. Fortunately, until the time that I chose to visit Dr. Sierra, the nodules never created any of the physical discomfort that can be associated with the nodules' development and my vision could always be corrected to 20/20, with glasses. However, by the time that I decided to visit Dr. Sierra, the Salzmann's nodules on both eyes had become very aggressive. Due to a high level of irregular astigmatism, my vision was not correctable to 20/20 and Salzmann's-related discomforts were kicking in. Enter Dr. Sierra: I conducted quite a bit of online research to find a procedure or procedures that would address my Salzmann's issue(s) beyond just the mere removal of the nodules and then wait for them to redevelop only to have them removed again and again and... During the course of my research, I found Dr. Sierra and contacted her office. After speaking with her surgery coordinator, regarding the procedures that Dr. Sierra had performed on other patients who had similar conditions, I scheduled an appointment, with Dr. Sierra. Immediately after my first visit, with Dr. Sierra, I scheduled surgery for my left eye. During the procedure, Dr. Sierra removed pterygium that had reappeared, performed a Salzmann's nodulectomy, with the application of Mitomycin C (to retard/possibly prevent re-occurrence) and the placement of an embryonic membrane (to promote healthy healing). The entire procedure was without complications and was a great success. Approximately 4 or 5 months after the procedure on my left eye, Dr. Sierra performed the same procedure, with the exception of a pterygium excision (...no need.), on my right eye, with, again, great success and zero complications. Now, the vision on my left eye is 20/30, uncorrected, and my right eye's, uncorrected, is 20/20. Additionally, It has been approximately 8 months since my left eye's procedure and I've not experience any Salzmann's-like symptoms and the eye's acuity has remained constant. It's been approximately 4 months since the right eye's procedure and the right eye has similar conditions as the left eye, but with slightly better acuity (20/20 vs. left's 20/30). In addition to being very pleased with the interaction that I've had with everyone at Sacramento Eye Consultants, I am, obviously, extremely pleased with the outcome of Dr. Sierra's surgical procedures. So, based on the tremendous improvement that my eyes have experienced, due entirely to Dr. Sierra's work, I highly recommend Dr. Patricia Sierra. read more

I was near and far sited. Dr. Sierra recommended the mono vision lasik procedure. I have not worn glasses since! Thank You, Dr. Sierra read more

Outraged I had an appointment with Dr. Sierra after and 1 1/2 wait. I finally saw the Dr. No one explained no one, including Dr. Sierra apologized for keeping me waiting. When I asked the assistant why there was a delay. She said new patients take an hour to an hour and a half. Well I was a new patient. Dr Sierra was not friendly. She was distant. Not open to hear of my problem and she was done in less than 10 minutes. New patients take an hour to an hour and a half??? Not my experience....! I would not recommend this office. The staff, letting a patient wait for that long. I know things happen, no explanation, no apology. I'm a medical professional. I would never leave someone waiting that long. Why did I wait? My optometrist has been trying to treat and diagnose my eye problem for almost a year she referred me to this office. I was hoping for a diagnosis and didn't want to wait any longer. I was shocked when I read all these outstanding reviews. This was not my experience. read more

My elderly father has been been a patient of Dr Sierra for several years. Although she is a good doctor, she is rarely on time with her scheduled appointments. I am a working professional that takes time out of my busy schedule to bring my father to his appointment. I feel my time is disrespected The appointment have often run an over an hour late. I recommend going somewhere else if possible. read more

i had lasik done in the past however my vision started to fail because of cataracts. I decided on Dr. Patricia Sierra who now works for Grutzmacher & Lewis. In addition to the cataract surgery i had IOLs put in both eyes. As my eyes recovered, my eyesight became better and better. I couldn't be happier. If you are in search of an highly skilled opthamologist, Dr. Patricia Sierra would be an excellent choice. Kudos to Dr. Sierra. read more

She performed a cornea transplant and I am forever thankful for her expertise and knowledge. I have recommended her several times and will continue to do so. She is very professional and knowledgeable. read more

Wonderful experience! Friendly, knowledgeable staff! Dr. Sierra explained what procedure I was the best candidate for and why. She is warm, friendly and spent the time, I needed, answering all my questions. Thank you for making me feel comfortable during the entire procedure and for getting me out of contact lenses and glasses!! read more

I Have been seeing Dr. Sierra for several years now. I am so grateful that when my old Ophthalmologist retired he referred me to Dr. Sierra. She takes a personal interest in her patients. She has helped to guide me to wait for when the technology was right for my complicated eyes before allowing me to have surgery. So,when the time was right, and this was the first time I have ever experienced this in all of my 8 eye surgeries, she gathered all of the people involved in my surgery that day, and they prayed for me before starting the complicated surgical procedure. I am also happy to say that I had a positive out come. I now live 450 miles away from her. But I fly up three times a year to see her. She is the best physician I have. She is gold. I am so lucky to have her as my treating Ophthalmologist. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs a dedicated, caring, and Professionally Top surgeons in her field. Kieth W read more
