From start to finish, everything was done quickly and efficiently--my actual laser procedure was done in under a minute, which blew my mind. I honestly have nothing bad to say about this place. Everything about my visit was smooth and positive. The doctors were kind and professional, and the environment felt very welcoming. I did notice a little attitude at the front desk, but it was clear they were super busy, and honestly, it was understandable. Everyone was still respectful and got things done fast. If you're considering coming here--do it. They work at a fast pace, but they're good at what they do, and the experience was overall amazing. Highly recommend! Thank you doctors for your work God bless you all.

One lady walked around the office trying to find a staff member and nothing. Several people left frustrated. After about 30min of waiting a patient went out and found the receptionist and when she finally came back in, there was no apology, no explanation, nothing. An older gentlemen mentioned that he had rescheduled his appt to that day because during his original appt he waited several hours to be seen, but they were really behind and had no explanation for it. I can't imagine the horrible wait that ensued after this fiasco, so I ended up leaving and going elsewhere. Horrible customer service and respect for their patients.

Mom had her consult and pre-op appointments prior to cataract surgery. Elizabeth, the scheduling coordinator is the kindest and super efficient from the office side. Dr. Ted Pasquali (the younger one) has an amazing bedside manner for elderly and is a great surgeon. The nurse that called us the night before surgery was a bit on the sassy side so no 5 stars for SoCalEye. Regarding follow up appointments, I had a caregiver assist and accompany my mom to her appointment. I followed up w/the technician to find out how her eye is healing. The tech was awesome and called me with an update. Eyes are great and only needs reading glasses. This Lakewood/LB location is great. There is a Starbucks a block away that is convenient to wait at while your loved one is getting a procedure. There is also a Winco Foods next door. There is usually enough disability parking as well as regular parking. I would not arrive too early for an appointment as they are busy with several patients so just be on time and wait 10-15+ until called. Do though follow all day of surgery and pre-op instructions to a t. 4 stars and a lot better than the Los Al location.

Dr. Marvin Gordon performed cataract surgery on my right eye two months ago. The surgery went well,…read moreI can see clearly, and I didn't have any complications. I am very satisfied and happy with the result. I highly recommend Dr. Gordon and his staff. I was hit by a rock on my right eye when I was in first grade. That unfortunate incident caused very early development of cataract called Traumatic Cataract. I saw the first sign of blurriness about five years ago, and it progressively got worse as time went on to a point where my right eye became almost useless, and I was using primarily my left eye to function and live my life, which was very irritating. Although my health insurance referred me Dr. Marvin Gordon, I feel very fortunate and lucky to have such capable, meticulous, and skilled doctor. His exams on my eyes were pretty extensive, and some tests were done more than once, which made me feel little bit irritating at the time, but later I came to appreciate his meticulous and complete nature of his practice. After all, they are my eyes and vision that I will be living with for rest of my life, and I'm glad he took his time and care to thoroughly examine them. I also had this fear of not getting approval for the surgery from my insurance company, but after the diagnosis Dr. Gordon explained the condition of my eyes, what cataract surgery is, what options were available, and what I can expect from the surgery. He explained all these things to me confidently as if the surgery is going to happen, which made me at ease and believe that he would submit all necessary tests and supporting documents to my insurance for the surgery approval. I was elated when I got the call from his office that my surgery date has been set, and I needed to go see my primary physician for a physical, to make sure I was physically well enough to go through a surgery. His office also emailed me information on what I need to do before the surgery, on day of the surgery, and after the surgery. A few days before the surgery, my surgery hospital Lakewood Regional Medical Center called me to confirm my cataract surgery and my out-of-pocket cost. It was whopping $1,100. It was a lot to fork out, but I was really relieved that it was manageable sum, and it seemed reasonable to me. All staff and nurses at Lakewood Regional Medical Center were very professional and courteous, except for the intern or volunteer kid who wheel-chaired me to my waiting car after the surgery where he didn't fold up the foot stand on wheel chair that made it difficult for me to stand up, and he promptly banged the car door against the wheel chair as he opened it. It was my friend's car who was kind enough to come with me, and that made it 100 times worse than if it happened to my own. Dr. Gordon came to see me before the surgery to make sure I was feeling comfortable and to answer any concerns or questions. The surgery took about an hour, and I was asleep most of the time, but I did wake up during the last part of the operation. I was little shock to see the operation being performed on my eye, and I could feel the wetness and the instruments touching my eye as well, but it wasn't all that gross. What surprised me was that Dr. Gordon was explaining what he was doing as the procedure went on, and that helped me tremendously to make me feel comfortable and at ease. I was feeling very nauseous for a couple of days though from the effects of anesthesia, which I slept it off. Thankfully there was no other side effects or complications. The recovery time was surprisingly fast! Just after couple of days after the surgery I was able to see clearly without any corrective lens. Its been couple of months since the surgery, and I am very satisfied and happy with the result.

I called the office and was told to come in right away -- no waiting for a callback. That level of care and responsiveness meant so much to me.

He was telling my husband and I that one day if we have a kids, our kids will def wear glasses since both parent have it on lol. I wish the timing on time. I came right on time at 10am but called to go inside at 10.35 am. They said they were little behind with the schedule. Also I wish they have good selection of the eyeglasses. Their selection and variations very low and more like standard basic one. One of the worker told me they have little selection since elderly come more often. So if you want luxury trendy glasses I don't think you able to find it here. Just ask the prescription and take it somewhere else like LensCrafters or Warby Parker. I'm pretty sure they take most insurance but make sure first to ask. I'm pretty glad I don't need to pay any copay.

A complete waste of one's time, as I should have been informed this before you asked me to sign any forms as you were aware my child was a MINOR.

On the car ride to her post surgery exam, I suddenly realized that my mother was a PIRATE. With one…read moreblack patch over her left eye, she could have been an extra for the Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales. Shiver me timbers... Yesterday, she had cataract surgery performed by Dr. Tae S. Kim at Cerritos Eye Medical Center. For an older woman, it has to be traumatic. But, it had to be done since she was losing vision and that alone could be very daunting. However, she confessed that the experience wasn't that bad, thanks to Dr. Kim. That's what I realized as well, having seen patients waiting for this professional, as their turn came about. I guess, eye surgery is somewhat common as a person gets older. The staff is very kind and patient, as I see one of the assistants provide detailed instructions to my mother on the medication that she has to endure for the next month or so. As I watch another receptionist answer the phone, I can tell that they're very calm and knowledgeable in the process. A couple years back, I had an eye infection and I remember Dr. Kim's kindness and thorough explanation of the eye drops and care that was needed for me to heal. I know many of us complain about the lack of thoroughness when it comes to professionals these days. A lot of them are about making that quick buck and to a certain extent, I can't blame them. It's still a business right? However, whenever I see a medical staff showing generosity in the time spent with you and the paperwork process, I get a good feeling knowing that they're probably doing the same with others. My lone issue has to be the form of payment needed for the services at Cerritos Eye Medical Center. Cash and check only? For those who don't have the money now, how does one get treatment? I know medical insurance and Medi-Cal are accepted here, but in this day and age - NO CREDIT CARDS? I'm kinda dumbfounded. Anyways, I would come back to see Dr. Kim again, since this place seems somewhat hidden to the general population. I see old people (aka seniors citizens only). Could be the hidden gem of eye care. Since, it's right next to my primary care physician - Dr. Pak @ First Medical Center, it's a no brainer for me.
