Dr. Phillips took excellent care of my father's medical needs and cataract surgery for both eyes. Now, 20+ years later, both my husband and I still see Dr. Phillips for our check ups and whenever we need attention for our eyes. Unfortunately, I needed cataract surgery for both eyes in my mid 50's. I knew right away that I wanted Dr. Phillips to do the procedure. I've always felt comfort, honesty, and professionalism with Dr. Phillips expertise in the field. I had cataract surgery for 1 eye, and it was amazing, I was able to see when I left the surgical center. I couldn't wait to get the second eye done. Within several weeks, I had the second surgery. I can honestly say that my vision was better than excellent, I was able to see things like a speck of dirt on a very high ceiling. Dr. Phillips was so patient in explaining the details from beginning to end. Also, Noel was so helpful with setting up the appointments, taking measurements, going over the procedure, and the aftercare. I just referred my Uncle to Dr. Phillips, and he's a happy patient. Thank you to Dr. Phillips and the entire staff at Phillips Eye Center!

I did not experience the long waits that were mentioned in some of the other reviews. The place seems super well organized... I will be coming here every six months for the rest of my life....

I had irritation in my eye for a few days and noticed a small cyst on the white part of my eye…read more Naturally, I freaked out. A CYST? On my EYEBALL?! Fortunately, a good friend mentioned Dr. Jones to me previously, and I was able to make a same-day appointment with him. He assured me that the cyst wasn't serious and gave me a few options for treatment. We opted for the medical option (steroid drops), and the cyst went away after a few weeks. However, there was still irritation on that part of the eye. Dr. Jones mentioned it's part of a larger issue -- that I have bumps under my eyelids due to chronic contact lens wear -- and we need to treat that. I've always had what I thought was dry eyes due to excessive contact use, as diagnosed by other optometrists and ophthalmologists. However, Dr. Jones noted that my eyes aren't actually that dry, and much of my irritation is due to the friction that caused bumps under my eyelids, which originated from the contact use. Dr. Jones has been treating me for the past 6 weeks and my eyes are feeling much better. I like that he has a game-plan for my eyes and we're approaching the issues from multiple angles. His office has been reasonable as well, since I'm not going through my regular insurance. Lastly, the staff is friendly and extremely responsive. They can even communicate through text. If you want comprehensive eye care, look no further than Focus Eye Center!

Furthermore, Dr. Lu personally calls patients on the same day after each surgery to check on their progress.

I'm surprised to see that this ophthalmology office had received some low reviews although most of…read morethem seemed to be due to the long wait. Initially reading through some of them actually made me rethink if I was at the right place. However I've been taking my dad here for years to treat his glaucoma and cataracts, and he has undergone several surgeries performed by Dr. Huang. His vision has improved tremendously compared to where he was years ago. All of the staff members in the office are friendly and patient, even when dealing with difficult situations. The lady at the front desk is very kind and always calls us ahead of time to remind us of our appointments. She seems to know most of the patients well, and we always feel welcomed when checking in. If you have elderly parents at home, you've likely experienced their stubbornness and impatience when it comes to their health; I am certainly no exception. When my dad was first diagnosed with glaucoma years ago, he was instructed to use eye drops daily. Because he couldn't "feel" the symptoms yet, he didn't think his life was being affected and unfortunately didn't follow the instructions. This is what is so scary about glaucoma - it can cause damage without you realizing it. Then when COVID hit, my dad decided to stop visiting the office entirely. As a result, a few years later, very little of his vision remained and his cataracts had worsened significantly. Seeing the progress he has made now under Dr. Huang's care is truly impressive. I highly recommend this office for their expertise and their patience with elderly patients.

I do not recommend going to this office at all.

COVID-19: Social distancing is not enforced at this establishment. Some of the staff wears a mask…read more All patients are not expected to wear a mask. It's optional now. Some of the staff also wears gloves. They definitely do when examining their patients. There are some hand sanitizers available for patients to use. This place is open and available with no limited capacity. They are not sanitizing in between patients. COVID-19 Vaccination Proof: This establishment currently does not require proof of vaccination. While I was here in this establishment today with my dad, I asked if they had any special offers and they weren't offering any at the moment. They also do not allow pets in their establishment UNLESS it's a service animal. Parking: The parking lot for this establishment is decent. It isn't too big nor too small. Parking spots are okay as well. Establishment: I had to bring my dad here today for his follow up appointment. He has been coming to see Dr. Chao for some time, and he really likes this place. My dad said that the doctor was really patient and thorough with explaining all that goes on during a cataract surgery. He said that the doctor also took some time going over other options if he refused to undergo the cataract surgery. Due to the doctor's experience and expertise, my dad decided to go through with the surgery at Concourse Diagnostic and Surgery Center. My dad's surgery went smoothly, and his follow up appointment also went well. Overall, this was an excellent outcome. I would highly recommend Dr. Chao for anyone who is interested in getting cataract surgery. The establishment itself is very clean, neat, tidy, and organized. Staff: The staff here are very friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable. They accept both cash and credit cards. There is no credit card minimum.

Excellent location as they are near the gold line and have plenty of parking in the back. The security guard at the front was nice and helpful letting us know what time the office is opened and that we could wait in the lobby until they opened. The staff is very nice and helpful to their patients. Very easy to talk to them. The plus was they were able to speak Chinese (Mandarin)to my dad. The technician was efficient and checked his vision, eye pressure (with a tono pen), checking pupils, extra ocular motility (EOM) and getting a complete chief complaint and asked if reading was an issue (which is was not). The one thing I would have checked is confrontational fields, but other than that she did an excellent job. She then proceeded to dilate his pupils and explained to him about the process and the expect his near vision to be blurry due to dilation and to wear sun glasses when outside (due to increased incoming light from pupils being dilated). She performed imaging to check the macula and retina and optic nerve. We then saw Dr. Chao who is a fantastic physician performed a thorough exam and explained to my father about cataract surgery in Chinese, explained what she saw and how bad his cataracts were and asked him specific questions about his vision and discussed the different lens options available and which my father would like to receive. (Standard lens usually set for distance and would require glasses for reading or one can opt for a multifocal lens where you don't need to wear glasses but this type of lens is not covered by insurance and would be out of pocket). Dr. Chao is an ophthalmologist who specializes in Glaucoma (treats patients with high eye pressure which can lead to blindness if left untreated) and is also a cataract surgeon and comprehensive ophthalmologist (sees patients for any eye issues and can refer out to specialists as needed). Then we scheduled a surgery date and will need to see his primary care physician (PCP) for clearance will need to return for a follow up appointment to get his biometry measurements for the lens prior to surgery. My dad was happy with his first visit and looks forward to his follow up visit.

With the help of the staff specially Evette my next surgery was scheduled and I can't wait for myself to stop bugging my daughter, that her white shirt is always brownish in color when in fact it is white.
