Had to leave a review because the energy is so good at this office and I somehow had fun at a doctor's appointment! Dr Connie Kim and her assistant Marcella are down to earth, friendly, competent, and professional. They are both excellent communicators who give clear verbal instructions and I especially appreciated that Dr. Kim checked my vision at iPad distance and monitor distance before confirming my prescription.
Dr. Kim is the sweetest most patient optometrist along with Marcela, the receptionist. I got an appointment the same day while having eye pain. Although, I live in Gilroy, I'll be driving to SJ to have my checkups with Dr. Kim.
I gave a 4-star rating mainly due to the receptionist being quite rude. I'm unsure if it was a tough morning or related to working on MLK holiday, but her mannerisms and attitude weren't fitting for the first impression of the office. She seemed frustrated when I asked about my prescription and scheduling an appointment. It'd be helpful if the office could remind patients when their prescriptions are expiring, like I've experienced with other doctors' offices. Despite this, I really like the doctor here, and Costco's prices are fantastic!
