She puts each of her patients complete ease and calm, from the very first moment you step into her office. From one glance at the waiting room (not long a wait but many pleased patients returning to see their doctor(s), I was assured and impressed that I was in the very right place for my upcoming cataracts surgery. Dr Bedrood places no pressure on when you wish to have your surgery, but very gently encourages it if needed. And she promised my world will be so much more vibrant and vivid once I do choose to do so. And indeed, she was spot on! Even with only the first eye (my right one), I stepped from a matted, muted drab world to a technicolor one. Dr Sahar is a modern day miracle worker and my 'hero' surgeon. "I can see clearly now." The blur is gone!

The problem here is no one in this office knows hwo to actually listen to patients…read more I was referred to Dr. Fram, but was quivckly told that she "wanted me to see" this other doctor in her office. Fine, my issue was watery eyes not catracts. Upon arrival I was sent in to meet with, not the docotr, but a series of technicians who stumbled thru using various gadgets that did or did not work properly. I mentioned to one that I was just here for watery eyes and she told me that liquid tears would help but get the one without preservatives. After about 45 minutes of various tests, which included dilating my eyes, which I was not told about ahead of time, a young, pretty doctor walked in, did a 3-4 minute exam and then declared, "Oh, good news! You don't have cataracts!" I explained that I didn;t come here for that, but rather for watery eyes, and she said "Oh, just get some liquid tears!" I asked how long I'd have to wait to drive home with my eyes dilated and she said "Oh 3-4 hours." When I began to object, she said "Oh we can do reversal drops!" and then walked out and did not return until I demanded that I get these magical reversal drops. They finally found another doctor who applied these reversal drops and I asked how long I'd have to wait and was told "About 1-2 hours." So after 2 hours, with my eyes still feeling dilated and a $50 parking bill looming, -- this is Centruy City -- I just left. I ended up paying a lot of money for being told the same thing about liquid tears I could have found on Google, almost got into an accident on the way home, and was out $50 for parking. A complete waste of half a day, my nerves shot, and frustrated as hell. I'll obviously never go here again, even if I do need cataract surgery, I have no idea whether Dr Fram is as good as they say, but clearly everyone else in her office is sorely lacking, mostly in their ability to stop and listen to what patientss need.

Office staff is incompetent and communicates poorly with patients. See other 1-2 star reviews, same…read morecomplaint - so let me add mine. During my last visit the office manager actually read out loud to other patients and staff what my insurance deductible was. When I said I wish you had kept my information private, her response was "We don't have a private room." Think on that for moment. Further - they now charge you upfront money beyond your co-pay prior to submitting to your insurance. they are profiteers. You have been warned. Note: this is the second bad office experience I've had with them and the first time ever I've had an issue at a doctor's office in 45 years. Dr. Krivoy may be a good doctor, but his staff and financial policy is not.

Antonio Perallta, 310-749-7747, d_zirkler@yahoo.com,…read more Date: May 21, 2026 Dear Dr. Daniel Krivoy, I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding the unacceptable treatment I received from your administrative team today, May 21, 2026, and to request an immediate resolution regarding my scheduling status. Earlier today, I contacted your office to confirm an upcoming appointment. The representative I spoke with was unable to provide clear communication or explain the purpose of the visit. Furthermore, she inaccurately claimed that I had cancelled the appointment myself. When I questioned this, she attempted to explain the situation using dense medical terminology that was difficult to comprehend and adopted a highly condescending and upsetting tone. Seeking a resolution, I subsequently spoke with the individuals identifying themselves as your office manager. Disappointingly, this manager prioritized protecting her employee's behavior over resolving my scheduling issue, completely invalidating my experience as a patient. As a patient of your practice, I expect clear, accurate, and respectful communication. Professionalism is vital in a healthcare setting, and the dismissive attitude displayed by both the front-desk staff and office management has severely compromised my confidence in your clinic's administrative operations. To resolve this matter, I request the following actions: 1. A clear, jargon-free explanation of my current appointment status and its original purpose. 2. A formal review of the handling of my call by both the representative and the office manager. 3. Written confirmation that my patient file accurately reflects that I did *not* cancel my own appointment. I value the medical care provided by all physicians, but I cannot tolerate being treated with disrespect by the staff. I look forward to your prompt response to resolve this matter. Sincerely, Antonio Peralta Hopefully, bringing this directly to you will result in clear answers from you.

I highly recommend Dr. Hahn if you have "dry eye" issues.

I regret trusting Dr. Khodabakhsh, who performed a femtolaser assisted cataract surgery on my left…read moreeye using a light adjustable lens (LAL) last year. He's supposed to be the best, but his treatment led to months of misery both for my vision and time wasted trying to get reimbursed for procedures that ended up being covered by insurance and being double billed for the lens. While my treated eye is functional, it's not optimal nor what he promised. If you see Dr. K., do not trust him that everything is out of pocket, ask him to submit insurance claims for everything even if he tells you no insurance will ever cover it (it's up to the insurance to determine that) and get a written quote for anything out of pocket. If you end up prepaying for supposedly "noncovered services," make him put in the contract that he will reimburse you the excess should insurance cover the procedure. Pay close attention to your insurance claims so you do not get double billed by Dr. K and the Surgery Center. Also, do not let Dr. K.'s office use your credit card to pay the referring optometrist. Details are as follows: 1) He convinced me to get an expensive LAL lens that would allow him to adjust my vision post-surgery if his prediction of the lens power was off pre-surgery. He did not disclose that he would be making me so farsighted after the surgery that I could not read my phone without holding it 2 feet away! He assumed I knew so he could "fix" the power later. This caused a huge problem between my normal untreated eye and the surgical eye; I ended up getting a needle stick at work a week after the surgery-Dr. K. did not care when I told him. This is not proper informed consent. He also misled me when he said I would not need glasses if I picked the LAL lens; I ended up compromising far vision to get reasonable near vision without reading glasses 2) He told me that the LAL lens, the femtolaser (instead of a traditional scalpel) and the laser treatments to adjust the lens power were not covered by insurance, quoting me $9000 (later discounted to $8000). My research showed that this was about double what others were charging. I decided to proceed since this was for my eye and he was supposed to be the "best." 3) After the surgery, I found out that my insurance covered all of what Dr. K said was out of pocket. My insurance allotted $2100 to the Surgery Center (of which Dr. K is a part owner) for my lens! That meant that I had paid for the lens twice-first to Dr. K. for the lens package before the surgery and then again as part of my coinsurance to the Surgery Center. The Surgery Center eventually gave me back the coinsurance for the lens, but Dr. K.'s office refused to submit an insurance claim for the lens and tried to prevent me from submitting my own claim by saying it would be "medical fraud" for me to claim the lens using Dr. K's tax ID #; since Dr. K did not purchase the lens directly from the manufacturer (he bought the lens from the Surgery Center), he was not allowed to bill insurance for it (but he billed me!). Fortunately, my insurance company helped me get Dr. K's tax ID # (he refused to provide it) and file the claim; insurance approved all the procedure codes (with allowable contracted amounts-about 50% of the out of pocket charge); but Dr. K never gave me back the excess out of pocket charge. 4) He has a suspicious deal with my optometrist. His surgical coordinator called me to charge my credit card $8000 the day before the surgery, but then charged $1000 on my card to my optometrist and $7000 to Dr. K's office. It made it look like I was the one paying the optometrist willingly with my credit card, circumventing the appearance of Dr. K. paying the optometrist for my referral. Dr. K's coordinator kept on trying to get me to see my optometrist for the post-op visits, but I never did. I insisted on following up with Dr. K, but his office blocked that and scheduled me with an optometrist working for Dr. K. However, even if I did see the referring optometrist post-op, he would not have been entitled to the out of pocket payment. Aftercare within 90 days post cataract surgery is covered by the insurance payment for the surgery even if it is provided by an optometrist. Seeing me for a vision check without providing laser treatment on the lens would only allow the optometrist to get paid out of the cataract surgery insurance payment, not a portion of my out of pocket payment. I confronted the referring optometrist who first tried to claim that the yearly routine vision screening paid for by my vision insurance was the "pre-op" for the cataract surgery, but then eventually gave me back the $1000 as he had not participated in the surgery/aftercare. However, he made me sign something saying it was a "system error" as his office does a lot of business/referrals with Dr. K's office. Overall, the most horrid medical experience I have ever had. Stay away unless you want to be deceived, overcharged and disregarded!

At the age of 46 years old, I unfortunately got hit with congenital cataracts in my left eye. I was suppose to go to Kaiser and just do it with my insurance. But just like most places there was no personal comfort and care like a place like the Vision Institute. After much research and second opinion after 3rd or more I made a visit to this place months ago. Right away I was seen, cared for like no other. The first lady I dealt with asked me so many valuable questions, and assured my presence there was important as it should be. I felt safe and comfortable right away. I met Dr. Hura for the first time that day and I was relieved to know he also was extremely helpful and amazing to answer my questions and share the right information to make me feel at home. The 2nd visit was to dilatate, do measurements, and get me ready for a possible surgery. That day was even better, being cared for and treated like a human being would want felt great. My worries of eye vision lost or any other things was going down. The Surgery Day at Specialty Surgical Center was even better, the Nurses, the Anesthesia specialist, the O.R. Nurse, Surgical tech, and the Recovery Nurse were all patient with me, and made me feel at home again. Made me feel safe and communicated with me always. Surgery was completed and I did not feel any pain or discomfort. Just a little anxiety on my end. Went home rested, for the first 2 days I stayed home and just relaxed and could tell my vision get better every day. Eye drops, and just rest made it hard to do as an active person I am. But day 3 I went back to work with ease and now after about a week and a half. My vision is on the last 3rd base with a homerun in the horizon! My vision is much more clearer then ever, day by day it's only gotten better! I am so extremely happy and after being overwhelmed with what could happen or what can I can't do. It's safe to say that I'm glad I made the right decision and even if I had to pay out of pocket. The price is worth it! You can't put a price on the Best Quality, and most importantly our own health! OUR EYES! I'm looking forward to the next 2 and half weeks and complete my 30 days after surgery to be ready to tackle life again. I surely will decide to do the right eye next in the coming months. SUPER THANK YOU TO DR. HURA! The Staff of the Vision Institute for always answering my calls with sincerity and care. Thank you to the awesome people at the Specialty Surgical Center for caring and being comforting before, during and after my surgery!
