I have had Dr. Fierson as my daughter's eye doctor since she was born. She was born 3 1/2 months early and developed ROP, the NICU had him check her weekly this continued til she was at least 1 yr. He was always very careful and obviously knew what he was doing. I went from being extremely stressed and worried cause I was told by NICU that she might need surgery because there was a possibility of her losing her sight, to being completely happy because in just a few months of him taking care of her that threat was completely gone! This was a big deal for me as she already had all sorts of issues going on and her being my first, three months early and weighting at 1 lbs. it is not something a first time parent is ready for, so his assistance definitely helped ease a worry so much that when we moved to Las Vegas we made the drive all the way back to Arcadia for her appointments, I now live about 2 hrs. away and we still make the drive. He has been her doctor for 6 yrs. and have never had a problem or issues with them, if anything I'm more than thankful to him as he is one of the few doctors that took care and helped my little miracle baby! I read on these reviews how people complain about the wait and how crowded it gets, all I have to say to that is he's a great doctor obviously on high demand and if you do have to wait more than an hour it's most likely because your kids eyes are being dilated, as for another reviewer who claims he does not clean his equipment with more than just alcohol, that couldn't be the case simply because my daughter being at already such critical stage still caught nothing and he was always very professional and caring, being a parent who understands that their child is so susceptible to infections and bacteria cause their little body is still not developed enough to fight them so much so that you can't even touch or kiss your child and know that the NICU team trusts Dr. Fierson to take care of these little ones in such critical stage definitely shows that he is a great doctor who gets the job done and is very careful and DEFINITELY clean or I'm sure my daughter would have been in trouble.....as for the staff I have got nothing but good things to say about them for the last six years that I have been there they have never been rude or disrespectful and they get the job done and know exactly what they are doing, I think I should know !!! OVERALL GREAT DOCTOR YOU CAN TRUST YOUR KIDS BEING TAKEN CARE OF COMPLETELY!!!! BTW READ THE FILTERED REVIEWS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE!! FOR SOME REASON THE MAJORITY OF THE GOOD ONES ARE FILTERED OUT!!! INFORM YOURSELF, HE'S GOOD!!!! read more

Dr. Fierson is a truly professional physician and the staff is kind and very helpful. My son's had lost his vision on both eyes since July 3,2017 after we went two different doctor at Foothill Eye Medical Group they did not find out what happened and refused to send my son to do MRI. ( I highly recommend NOT going there). On July 6,2017, before we were directed to Dr. Fierson. We got a referral by Pediatric Dr. Priti Desai ( I highly recommend) to see Dr. Fierson. When we came into the office, the waiting room was full of patients. I don't think we would have a chance to see Dr. Fierson, but after I explained the situation of my son ( 3 days without vision ) and what I have been going through. Finally they took us in as Emergency and referral, less than an hour we walked out of the office with MRI paper. Thank you Carmen and the staff call appointment for MRI. They're really working hard and go beyond with excellent services. I almost forgot that Dr. Fierson is on vacation that week. He just flew back from Hawaii and only work half day. During the time of treatment for my son. Dr. Carolyn was keeping in touch with us, by calling and texting to make sure that we were on the path, just a few simple words cannot explain how I feel gratitude to my great Dr. Fierson! Deep down in my heart, you're very good and talented doctor. I am so grateful to have Dr. Fierson as my son's physician. Thank you! GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY AND YOUR STAFF!!!! read more

My daughter (age 4 1/2) has been seeing Dr. Fierson for about a year and a half now, and we couldn't be more pleased with her treatment at his office. Our referring pediatrician told me that he is the best around, so I happily make the 1 hour drive for my child to see him. Dr. Fierson has a lot of experience and a great reputation in the field, and I trust his plan of treatment 100%. He has always taken the time to address any questions and concerns I may have regarding my daughter's condition. When you go to his office, it's like going to a restaurant for the first time and you know it's good because it's always buzzing with children and their parents since he is in high demand. The office staff is friendly, and they are typically on schedule with appointment times. They have their system down to an art to keep up with Dr. Fierson's patient flow. Dr. Fierson's wife, Dr. Carolyn, is always great with my daughter when helping her pick out or adjust her glasses. They have a fantastic warranty program if you purchase glasses through them. This has been very comforting to me since my daughter is so young and active. We have gotten the most out of their warranty program, and I like that I don't need to stress too much over another pair of broken glasses. read more

Dr walter fierson has not only successfully treated my cousin who had very weak muscles in his eyes causing them to wander. He is now helping my young daughter zayleigh who cries about everything especially at Dr offices he has made her feel so comfortable and she has never cried. The devices he uses to check her eyes are all geared toward children. Tinkerbell light and toys that light up he even puts on Peter Pan and revises her in a timely manner. Yes their May Be a wait time but it's a doctors office. I rather wait knowing the dr will take the time to answer my questions versus other offices that are quicker but are in such a rush to get you out the door. His staff has always been very friendly. Carolyn has such a sweet soul and even asked me for a hug one day which was very reassuring. She also took the time to answer my questions as I have never had to wear glasses before so she took her time and explained to me how everything works. They really are the sweetest! Love bringing my daughter here. Best eye doctor for children. read more

I would give Dr. Fierson star 6 if there is a rating 6. He is the best Eye doctor I have ever met. I have two preemies both were born pre-maturely. Dr. Fierson has been treating them since they were born in the hospital. Now they are 8 and 10 years old. I have been seeing Dr. Fierson for 10 years. My daughter has strabismus and just did eye surgery in October to get it corrected. The surgery was success and we were so appreciated that he has fixed my daughter's strabismus which has been bothering me for the past 8 years. I can't express how much me and my family have been grateful to be able to have him be our kids' eye doctor. He is the best and best doctor for my family. The entire office staff and the office manager are the nicest people in the world. The best doctor and best staff deserve the best. Sure, there will be waiting time as good doctors get more patients. He is all worth it. read more

We have been coming to Dr. Fierson since my daughter was 6 months old until the present (7 years). She has a condition that required 2 surgeries, eye patching, and now follow-up appts. with eye glasses. Yes, sometimes the waits can be long and there have been a couple of bumps along the way. Any complaints or questions I had I was able to directly talk to the Dr. about them and he addressed it and I received feedback that was appropriate for the situation. Overall, the treatment my daughter has received has improved her condition tremendously (to almost complete resolution) and the staff as well as the Dr. has shown to be consistent in providing great service over the years. I recommend him highly as he has proven over the years to be able to assess and follow-through with what was needed. read more

They are truly amazing. My son needed to get glasses to help with an eye problem we had just purchased glasses back in October with my eye doctor and since he had already received glasses in the last year it would have to be out of my pocket this time. I was talking to the lady who orders the glasses and thank God for her quick thinking of using his other glasses for the frame, it didnt cost me as much. I totally recommend them. They aren't trying to make a quick buck, they think of of the patient and how to help them. Paying for glasses out of pocket isn't fun. I did it for many years without vision insurance and they can help with a cost of glasses, THAT IS A BIG HELP. Thank you again. read more

A few months ago, my grandaughter saw Dr. Fierson. She had fallen off the couch, and we were worried she had hit her head. We thought her right eye was affected. Dr. Fierson's staff were so kind and helpful. Our visit was pleasant. Dr. Fierson was very patient because our grandauaghter was really fussy. His examination showed no damage to the eye. He gave a very thorough examination. He was very professional and kind at the same time. His knowledge is surperb. He gave a very clear explanation of eye injuries and what to expect. We were very releaved that our grandaughter was ok. I would highly recommend Dr. Fierson over any other doctor. Marie Teresa read more

UPDATE REVIEW for August 1, 2013: I arrived at Dr Fierson at 3:40pm, My appointment is at 3:45pm. within minutes, They called me for usual a eye exam before seeing Dr Fierson. After his recent surgery, I was able to nail today's test exam to 20/30 and before surgery it used to be 20/70. I would like to thank Dr Fierson once again for this successful surgery, I am feeling like a bullet. After reading many negative reviews about the long wait, you wouldn't believe it that I was out of his office in 20 Minutes. This is the best part of the visit! EXCELLENT, Sincerely Jose Molina read more

My daughter has been going to this office for the last 21 years of her life! It is always such a pleasure to bring her to her appointments. Dr Fierson has been following her progress since she was a 2 pound preemie in the NICU. The last few years Dr. Bates has been seeing my daughter and she absolutely loves him. He is such a kind and compassionate Doctor with Old School values that you don't see in much of todays Physicians. They always keep me informed of her progress. They are very professional yet always make me feel comfortable when we visit. read more

If I could give 10 stars, believe me, i would without hesitation, Dr. Fierson has been my son's Opthalmologist for the last 16 years, he's a blessing to our family, he's very patient and very friendly, and above all else, Dr. Fierson is the best or one of the best in our country. No wonder Dr Fierson has tons of patients, can't be the best and have miniscule patients right? But rest assured his friendly staffs are there to make sure everybody is comfortable. Again, 10 stars for Dr.Fierson and 3 thumbs up if only I have 3 hands. read more

My daughter first saw Dr. Fierson when she was around one year old. We were referred by our Pediatrician. My daughter's left eye had discharge all the time. After she had a surgery done by Dr. Fierson, her eye had no more discharge. I would like to write this review, to thank him for helping, and caring my daughter's eye since she was small and continues caring until now she is 9 years old. Dr. Fierson is a very professional, kind and patient. I would highly recommend Dr. Fierson over any other doctor. read more

Dr. Walter Fierson is a great eye Dr. he is very knowledgeable and knows what he is doing. He helped my daughter get her eyes straight and is continuing to keep her in a great track i read most of these reviews and honestly i don't think they are rude try going to a kaiser eye dr that believes a child's eyes can't be fix due to medical issues.

Dr. Fierson has provided thorough, comprehensive eye care for our family through the years. He takes the time to perform an unhurried examination and prescribes effective treatment to treat any problems. He is actively involved in the state of the art treatments for children through the American Academy of Pediatrics. I wouldn't send my children or grandchildren to anyone else. He is everything you want in an opthalmologist. read more
