I have a high prescription and there are some eye health concerns that can come along with that. They always are tracking and educating me about them. I've had to get a recheck once, and it was free. I had to send back a pair, it was free. I have had optometrists in the past who just say "oh you'll get used to it." There is never any fuss about it at UCB.They want to get it right for you. Because they are educating new optometrists, they work very hard at teaching them how to use insurance to get the cheapest lenses. I've gotten lenses that cost half of what they did anywhere else. They just cannot be beat!

Today, after a short visit (checking eye pressure), I headed to the grocery store with a very specific list of items that I'd been forgetting. But, when I got to the store, I didn't have the list that I was positive I had put in my pocket. My mind went blank and I couldn't remember more than a single item on the list. Low and behold, I received a VM telling me that my list must have fallen from my pocket, as it was on the chair I'd vacated. I quickly called back and asked if the nice receptionist could possibly send a screenshot of my list so I wouldn't have to drive back to get it. She was more than happy to!!! I'm a VERY happy client (patient) due to how personable and capable the entire staff always is, but now I have reason to sing their praises for going "the extra mile"! Thank you!!!

They were true two primary issues with Michael Wang's ophthalmology practice…read more The first one is that the communication with the office was terrible. They do not respond to messages in the MyChart system, despite asking you to use the MyChart system to communicate with them. They do not respond to text messages, despite not answering their phone and having a voicemail that asks you to text them. I have sent over six messages across those two systems and not received a single response. Second, the office in Lafayette looks like a barren movie set. There is absolutely nothing on the walls, and it appears to be some sort of temporary space. The chairs you sit in are rickety and mismatched. The furniture looks like it's something from a thrift sale. So strange. In the end, I had to leave the practice because I was not able to get my prescriptions renewed by virtue of never being able to reach their office. The care quality was quite poor.

I was referred to Dr. Kiprov by my regular doctor because of a sudden eye problem…read more Today was my 2nd appointment with her, and although she may be a good surgeon according to other Yelpers, this appointment confirmed that she is lacking the personal skills to be a good doctor. At both appointments, she was skeptical of my description of my symptoms, intimating that I was not telling the truth about them. After tests showed that I was actually telling the truth (!), she said that I could just live with the symptoms, or she could, she reluctantly supposed, refer me to a specialist. I have had 20/20 vision for all of my life and have been quite upset about the possibility of my current vision problem becoming permanent. I stated this and wish she had responded logically. If a patient is very concerned and scared, it's illogical for a doctor to a) suggest the patient isn't telling the truth or b) suggest that the patient does nothing and just "lives with it." If she reads this, I'm sorry but I'll probably do my best to avoid visiting your practice again. I don't want or need a doctor to be touchy-feely, but I do want to feel like you understand your patients fears and respond appropriately with explanations & suggestions. I shouldn't have to feel like I'm imposing on you to answer questions about what you find. If you're bored explaining the physiology of an eyeball to referred patients, you may want to switch to doing surgery only & stop seeing "regular" patients. The 2 staffers were excellent, friendly, and helpful. I have insurance and pay my co-pays immediately, so those are not the issue.

She did not even bother to introduce herself when she walked in, barely glanced at my record, and started looking at me. I have had optometrists and ophthalmologists dig around in my eye to remove objects before. It's unpleasant, but they were nice and established trust, and were always able to help me get calm enough so that I can keep from blinking or moving and let them work. Dr. Kiprov, on the other hand, worried me with how much she was rushing. I had trouble trusting her to poke around on my eye. She did not seem to comprehend that being impatient with me was making it much worse. She accidentally poked my eye when trying to remove an object, because she was in too much of a hurry. I hope she didn't do any real damage! She continued to be rude, turning her back and walking out of the examining room as soon as she felt she was done, not caring if I might have a question. I will never go back to her office again. Her staff was nice, and I got the impression that she might be fairly knowledgeable, but she was unbearable.

I was dealing with several new medical diagnoses at the time--which is never ideal when transitioning to a new doctor--but Dr. Beal has been absolutely incredible. This is my first experience with a provider outside of Kaiser, and I can honestly say I've never felt so heard or understood by a doctor. I used to think the doctors on TV who really get to know their patients were fictional--but not with Dr. Beal! She takes her time, never rushes appointments, and genuinely listens. She encourages questions and never makes me feel silly for asking anything, no matter how basic it might seem. Dr. Beal is working with me to build a care plan that actually fits me--not a one-size-fits-all solution. I'm honestly so thankful that I had to leave Kaiser, because it led me to her. Highly recommend!
