The professionalism and care by Dr. Bhakta, and her staf help me get care which was much needed along with identifying the challenges I was experiencing.

If you're looking for an optometrist who truly prioritizes patient care, Dr. Bhakta is an excellent choice! Thank you Dr. Bhakta and Stratford Eye Care team.

Unfortunately, I did leave today's visit with a gut feeling that the doctor unfortunately manipulates how she's going to bill their services to benefit them, not us the customers. My husband and I each have a great VSP plans through our employer and for two exams it should have been covered especially with double coverage, however I left paying $120 out-of-pocket on what should have been zero. I left very disappointed. I am in the HR field and I have an understanding of how Primary and secondary insurances work, but there really was no arguing with the doctor. Definitely disappointed, and because of this experience, we will no longer be going to see her.

I always have gone back to Dr. Flores because she is amazing, kind, and super knowledgeable. She always takes the time to answer my questions and explain things even when their office is very busy (which is always). It makes me feel cared for and I leave feeling like I have a better understanding about my vision. When Dr. Flores has been unavailable, I've also seen Dr. Lam. One time a couple years ago, I had an eye infection and I was desperate to get some antibiotic drops. For some reason, my insurance wouldn't cover the prescription and Dr. Lam did everything she could to make sure we could find a way to get the prescription covered or at least at a lower cost. While I was at the pharmacy, Dr. Lam made herself available in between clients to call me on the phone and ensure things were working out for me. She even offered to speak with the pharmacist themselves. Last but not least, the office manager Sandra has been amazing over the years with her customer service skills and taking care of my needs. When I called to make my annual appointment, I mentioned I was running low on contacts and wanted to come in to update my prescription and order more. When I went in for my visit last week, she had already put together some trial contacts for me to take home because she knows I have a pretty bad prescription and wanted to make sure I didn't go without contacts since it takes about a week for my contact order to ship. On top that, when I went yesterday to pick up my contact order, she offered me to pull up to the curb and she'd bring the box out to me. She handed me the box and sent me home with a little chocolate! That made my day. Overall, the service here at Flores Optometry is amazing and I will continue to be a patient here forever. The other staff members are always VERY kind and helpful and it seems like they do a great job working together and enjoy working together. It's always a pleasant visit and great vibes. THANK YOU :)

She really knows all the details when it comes to insurance benefits and took the time to clearly explain everything to us. She was also able to fix my eyeglasses perfectly on the first try, which I truly appreciated. It's also a huge plus that the office is close to my home.

I have since emailed the office advising them this is not sufficient for patients making an appointment over the phone when they have not been in the office for close to a year, where again when their office called and left a voicemail and I called back to confirm the appointment, they still did not advise of any cancellation fees. This is against CA law and bad practice to impose a cancellation policy based solely on a sign in their office, especially for patients that are scheduled on the phone and confirm on the phone. I have since found a new optometrist and guess what? They text their appointment confirmation so the patient can confirm and guess what's also included in that patient confirmation text? Their cancellation policy!

Their optometrist (who I saw two times and was late 40 minutes for my appt) did not know what the issue was. I spoke to another optometrist at a different company recently and he explained why I was having issues with my glasses. The optometrist at View Optical and the staff who I saw do NOT know how to handle progressive lenses. After my second appt with the optometrist, she sent me to a front office staff, and said he would help me resolve the issue. Joe tells me I have to select a smaller frame. I asked him how small, and he tells me he has to see it on my face??? Really??? There are sizes on the eyeglass frames! After trying on multiple frames and being told they were not small enough, Joe chose a frame and tells me it's the right size. He took it back to the optometrist who said it was STILL too big! The optometrist told me she would call the lab manager to get his opinion. Then I find out I have to come back AGAIN to meet with the lab manager! I was DONE at that point, but was told I had to meet with the lab manager first before I could receive a refund! I finally received a call from the lab manager (Joseph) and he said he understood my issue. I asked for a complete refund. It took nearly a month and a half, and hours of wasted time since ordering my glasses to get my money back. This review is for all who wear progressive lenses. Find a place where they guide you on the proper size frame to buy. A place where the optometrist understands how progressive prescriptions affect your vision and avoid a lot of frustration and wasted time.

Had to call multiple times to follow up when the contacts have arrived. Each time a new person takes the call and it takes a long time for them to understand for what we were calling. More over, they are very rude on the phone to my daughter and myself. Gina was very rude, unprofessional, and used filthy language to my daughter. She doesn't have basic customer service skills and gets argumentative with the customer. I would fire her on the spot if I were her manager. The optometrists do not care about what is happening at the front desk; so the customers suffer and possibly do not return because there is nothing to come back for. I would never go there nor recommend anyone to go to this place. There are dozen a dime optometrists. Please check for the right ones.

Didn't have to be "perfect," but doable, cause these were going to be back ups and I need to use my HSA.

After the exam, I brought the prescription to the Costco Optical located just outside the office, where the friendly staff assisted me in choosing and buying multiple pairs.
