    I was really quite surprised with Covid how in disarray this office was. For them to do an eye exam they put me in a room that looked like their storage room (see photos below) The doctor also only dilated one eye & said he did that because I didn't want my eyes dilated which was not true. I wanted a full examination. Then they never let me know that my eye would be dilated for six hours.

    Oleynikov made a laser cut, cleaned out the cataract lens and inserted a new one.

    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!

    Absolutely amazing. He explains everything in such detail and in a way that you can understand…read more And I am very happy with my results. Well worth every penny.

    As follow up to my last review about Dr. Rex Hamilton, he now has his own practice in Beverly…read moreHills. He is such an amazing surgeon that the City of Beverly Hills should have held a parade to welcome him to town. If you suffer from ANY eye malady, you cannot do better than Dr. Hamilton's practice. And this isn't hype; it's due to the many miracles that Dr. Hamilton performed on my mutant eyes.

    Oh my gosh, I just took the protective shield off the eye I had done yesterday (the first eye to…read morehave the cataracts removed and a new lens put in that replaced my 69-year-old biological lens)...And everything is so crystal clear!!! I mean, I knew I would be able to see at a distance, but I had no idea that colors had become so muted and that -- even with glasses -- things were still "not looking as they really are." I walked into my bathroom and I saw how beautifully blue and bright-white my bathroom rugs and tiles are! Then I walked into the kitchen and saw that there was gorgeous bougainvillea across the street and It was bright-bright purple. Oh my gosh, everything in the house is just so beautifully VIVID AND CRYSTAL CLEARLY DEFINED!!!!! I just can't believe what a drastic change...I mean I don't even remember seeing like this as a child and I had perfect vision!!! It's just everything is crystal clear bright colors. It's like watching 1950s color TV all your life, and then suddenly watching a Technicolor film (or for you techies, it's like watching pre-flatscreen TV and then suddenly watching MicroLED!) Anyway, the difference is wonderfully shocking. I'm, I'm so moved. (Tears of joy!!!!) This has changed and enhanced my emotional wellbeing one hundred percent. Thank you so much Dr Hamilton and your FABULOUS TEAM! You are all such kind, loving, caring, and cheerful people!!! Oh and let's not forget that you're ALL also INFINITELY GIFTED, VASTLY EXPERIENCED, HIGHLY EDUCATED, SUPERIORLY SKILLED (and a sight for sore eyes ...see what I did there?)
