Dr Anna Wu is hands down the very best. The front desk is hands down. The second part where you try being fitted for glasses is a hit n miss. Overall they are good. read more

Staff is very friendly, multilingual and knowledgable. Parking is not the easiest around here. read more

Have been coming here since 2017, I really recommend getting your eye exams here. They verify your benefits before hand and provide you with all the information needed. Plus everyone here is so lovely and helpful! Again if you're looking for an optometrist this is the place to go! read more

It's hard to believe that a year has passed and that it's time for new specs! After having eye issues that no other Doctor of Optometry could find, I met Dr Wu. I told her that others had not been able to help me with my situation and she started with some testing with prisms and a laser. With those tools and her expertise, she had a diagnosis and remedy in short order. I've been cured of my ailment for a year and now it's time to look at my eyes again. That did not take long! Thank you very much, Dr. Wu! read more

Every time that you call this office, nobody answers. I have called left a voicemail and they have called me maybe two days after very poor Customer Service.. read more

Went for regular eye exam and was given a prescription for a contact lens which wasn't made my the manufacturer. I realized this when I tried to buy contacts and they simply didn't exist. I called to get this corrected. Nancy (the practice manager) was very reasonable, apologized, said there was "human error" and gave me an updated prescription. I try to buy contacts again and learn that the second contact lens prescription also didn't exist! Apparently they hadn't even checked, shocking given the first mistake! I called back to ask for help, they were VERY hard to get a response from. When I finally did get a response, they were rude and refused to answer questions. I still don't have any resolution and don't have any faith that they will be able to provide quality eyecare. Very concerned about sloppy care, lack of due diligence, and poor customer service. Highly advise you look elsewhere for your eye care needs. read more

Love this place! Optician Elena was patient with us and went through the trouble of calling our insurance to resolve an issue. Their customer service is the best and they have a great selection of glasses. read more

This is my second test back and I love it. Not only is the staff all women, but mainly WOC! Dr Rosalia S. Is so fun but informative. She takes thorough notes so when you return a year later it truly felt like we picked up where left off. My #1 things is that she sat and spent time with me and didn't rush me or make me feel like I was asking too much. Transparent health care is so important to me. Safe, clean, comfy and I love my new frames! Can't wait for them to come in. read more

The Best Staff. They worked cooperatively & professionally.Gabriela greeted me with a Smile,Jessica fitted me for my Glasses,which came i less than a week. Jermaine called me & was able to come here the very next day. I thinkp her name was Nancy, was the one that adjusted my glasses when I came in to pick them up.The Optometrist Kim Nyugen was very Kind & Professional as well. She Thorough & Patiently answered all my questions.Thank you for a Pleasant experience on my 1st visit to your office. Sincerely Sara Smothers. read more

Great personal service. The optometrist took her time to explain the condition of my eyes and how age affects them. I'll be coming back for my annual exams. read more

One of my friends recommended this place, so of course I was open to trying. Even though it was just an eye doctor appointment, I had such a pleasant experience. It's an all women team, which I loved! My doctor, Dr. Wu, was great she thoroughly explained the process, offered additional details on any questions I had and was extra thorough. My favorite part was at the end of my exam, the staff sat with me and explained my benefits. Most optometry groups just try and upsell you on stuff and send you on your way. I appreciate the consideration of my pocketbook! read more

Positives: attentive, prompt, helpful service. Negatives: messed up my contact lens prescription. Make sure when getting samples or ordering the final order, that when you get the product, check all numbers to make sure they're correct. I told them after the mistakes and they corrected them, but they need to make sure these numbers are all correct beforehand. read more

Came in for my first visit today after three years since my last check up and feeling as if I am not sure if I was ready to see the world through a clear lens. I work at an office myself and I have to say that the whole staff there were absolutely wonderful. I saw Dr Anna Wu and would totally recommend her! Trust me on this one ;) read more

The staff is so pleasant and friendly. Very clean and organized work space. I was in and out of there pretty quickly. I've been coming here for years and will continue to do so. read more

Have been coming here for several years and have always had a great experience. The staff is super nice and friendly, always willing to help. Dr. Akira is professional, helpful and understanding. She explains things thoroughly. Flexible hours and open weekends too, which helps a lot when you have a busy schedule. read more

Dr. Saavedra has been my eye doctor for many years. I always appreciate her thorough care. Staff is professional and friendly. Strong cleanliness and COVID masking protocols in place. I also get my glasses there - good variety of frames and assistance with fitting. I highly recommend Dr. Saavedra for your eye care needs. read more

This was my first time coming here and found them through my insurance. Brought my two daughters age 3 & 6 to their annual eye exam and was greeted by the receptionist with the lovely purple hair. Filled out the paperwork and was introduced to Dr. Ashley Darnell who was very friendly, made the girls feel comfortable and overall explained everything to me. The staff is very friendly from the moment you make the first appointment, to greeting upon entrance, exam room and final departure. Also they have an awesome Keurig machine for the customers. Highly recommend and kudos to Dr. Darnell read more

If you need a great, knowledgeable, fun, passionate optometrist, Dr. Saavedra is it! She is very thorough and takes her time with you. Her staff is so nice and helpful! read more

My son and myself have been coming here for a few years and love the doctors. The office itself is clean and modern. Staff is friendly and it's a decent selection of eyeglass wear. Will continue coming here for a long time. read more

My wait time to be seen was short. Dr. Mackenzie and the staff were courteous and showed a genuine concern for the health of my eyes.

Being a new resident in San Leandro, I visited the Optometry for the first time last Friday. I was very impressed by the friendly and professional staff. Dr. Wu did a very careful and thorough exam on my eyes. She explained the test results very patiently. Dr. Wu is ver knowledgeable and passionate. I believe I have found an great eye doctor and optometry I can trust. read more

I purchased a pair of sunglasses and reading glasses from San Leandro Optometry Group and I am very impressed by the great customer service and professionalism. A stone fell from my glasses and replaced the frames at no cost. They also have a great stylist selection of frames for all tastes and face frames. read more

San leandro optometrist group is not recommended by us. I took my 12 year old to get a eye exam and the doctor was very fast, and we do not feel as it was a thoroughly examination .she dilated the eye and charged $35 and we did not ask for it. we had a $50 coupon but they did not take it .the lady that works with us through the price quotes for the contact lenses she claimed playing video games is good for the eyes because it was eye exercise.as a mother I do not like that comment of encourage kids play video games. anyway I did not feel the 20 minutes she spent for the exam that was worth$169. read more

Came in here to get glasses, and they happened to be having a trunk show with reps from Michael Kors and Calvin Klein there. The reps were extremely patient in helping me choose out glasses that worked .The optometrist was really friendly, and seemed to run the place very well. Staff was all welcoming and on top of their responsibilities. I'd definitely recommend this place - they have a good assortment of frames to chose from as well. Best of all? They're right next to Los Pericos. :) read more

Having gone through 3 eye surgeries in 2015 and 2 previous others in 2000, and in so many many years of having dealt with numerous optometrists and eye doctors from when I was 18 living all over the U.S from Minnestoa to California, I can say that Dr. Saavedra is among the (if not in fact "THE") best and "THE" most caring and "THE" most knowledgable optometrists I have seen... I live in San Jose, and in spite of the almost 1.5 hour of drive in painful traffic I would not want to see any other optometrists anywhere but her.. She is not only expert in her field and knows exactly - and I mean exactly - what she is doing, she in a simple language that (at least) "I" can understand explains everything she is doing and "why" she is doing it. Her diagnosis is right on the spot, and what she recommends is exactly what the eyes need. I would STRONGLY recommend her to anyone who does care for his/her own eyes. read more

This place is absolutely first rate. Dr. Saavedra is a gem and her staff are all jewels. I love the place and wouldn't think of ever going anywhere else. As professional as all get out. Sincerely, James Forsberg read more

Highly recommend! The doctor is extremely knowledgeable and very friendly - very professional and personable. She explained things to me that no other optometrist I've seen in the past had. The staff is also awesome - everyone was friendly and patient with me, even though it was dark as I was the last patient of the day. They understood and explained my benefits to me, and were overall great. Very well-run - so glad I found this place! read more

How much do I love this place? A collection of smart, professional women who stand ready to help you feel healthy and well in the eyes! I love this place. Highly recommend. Dr. Saavedra is thorough and friendly. It's the best. read more

Came here to have my eyes checked after refusing to wear glasses for my entire adolescence. (Horrible idea.) I was given two quick forms to fill out and then very quickly led back to the exam room by Ana, a member of the staff. She explained every test she performed with clarity, making me very comfortable, and was soooooo sweet and personable. Ana led me to the other exam room where I waited--again not that long--for Dr. Saavedra. Another great experience. Dr. Saavedra is very kind, gentle, and friendly, and made me feel at ease. When she finished conducting her tests, she confirmed what I already knew--that I needed glasses--and took me back out to select my frames with Ana. Ana was very patient, although I think I went through about 30 frames before finding "the ones". Lol. She then went through another 10 or 15 sunglasses frames with me so that if my regular glasses are a success, which I know they will be, I can just call and put in my order for the sunglasses with my prescription. I have never been so excited to wear glasses, and have never loved going to the optometrist so much! Definitely recommend, no question. read more

I have been going to Dr. Saavedra for a few years now and she is great. The office staff is always very friendly and I always get my glasses in a timely manner. This last visit I had some problems with my glasses and had to bring them back in and Freddy made the changes so easy. He is so friendly and accommodating. He is a pleasure to deal with. read more

The doctor was great. her staff gets a thumbs down. I asked were there any type of Veterans benefits and one staff person pretty much shoved me out the door w their eyes before they shook their heads No. They have no clue. They'll manage w/o my money. Costco here I am! read more

Love it here. Been going here for years. Love their new location. The staff and doctor are fabulous. Doctor is always cheerful and friendly and explains everything in detail. I started taking my kids here and even they both said the people here are very friendly. Staff is also very nice and helpful. Only issue I would point out is the front desk staff. Not efficient or professional but I think that just speaks for their generation. Once you check in the experience is wonderful. read more

Cannot speak highly enough of Dr. Saavedra, she is hands down the best eye doctor I've ever worked with. Her entire team is very professional and friendly, the office environment is welcoming and they have lots of frames to choose from. The steps they've taken to protect their patients post covid is admirable and made me feel safe and comfortable. If you're looking for an approachable, knowledgeable doctor than I recommend this practice. read more

Dr. Saavedra is the best! You can tell she really knows her stuff about eye care. She's very thorough and cares about her patients. She takes the time to explain things. The staff at San Leandro Optometry Group are all top-notch professionals. They understand different insurance options as well as what eyeglasses look and fit great for you. I like getting the confirmation texts as well to remind me of my appointments. My wife and I are very happy clients. read more

The doctors are great!! But their staff especially the front desk is rude!! They are unorganized & so not prepared for when the patient walks in. I've been coming to this place for the past 4 years & every time I go in, the receptionist is always in a bad mood, rude...always. My last visit was the last, I don't need to walk in and deal with an unhappy person at the front desk. Maybe she should go find a job where she will greet her customers well and have a smile on her face. I love Dr. Saavedra, but her front desk staff has to go. I'm taking my money somewhere else. read more

Dr Akera is a great optometrist, been seeing her for over 20 years, no complaints here, but on the lab side (frame purchase, prescription lens) the cost mark up is astronomical. Marcela quoted me a price for new frames plus prescription lens for a total cost of almost $1000.00, but I shopped around and got the EXACT frames and exact prescription lens for total cost of $325.00 for a savings of well over $500.00. I am not saying the frame and lab side of this place is bad, it is just expensive. So, get your eyes examined here by competant eye Drs, but be advised you can fill your prescription and get frames elsewhere for way way cheaper. read more
