I absolutely love the doctor. He is very understanding of any concerns and does help and makes sure you understand everything. I appreciate how I don't have to wait a long time to get an appt. The receptionist always answer pretty fast. Fair warning when you have an appt you have the call them to unlock the door and let you in.Only time I ever had an issue was during covid time for the wait on my medi-cal glasses but its understandable and thankfully I was still able to use the glasses I had at the time.

I've been having my eye exams here annually since 2015 when they were located at the plaza by what then used to be 24 hour fitness and Raley's. They then relocated to Gateway Plaza near Office Max and what used to be Choice. I've had both Dr. Ogata, the main Optometrist and fill in Optometrists. It's really easy to get an appointment here, since they've been closed during the Pandemic they are quite busy now and have appointments on weeknights which is good for those that work during the day and also over the weekends on Sundays. The door is locked and you have to call or if they see you standing they unlock the door. You immediately get your temperature checked with a standing thermometer and there's a sanitizing station right after. At this point with my eyesight, I just want to get my prescription and be done with it. I previously worked for an Ophthalmology office so I get the clinic flow. Dr. Ogata is very friendly and finds topics to connect and talk with you about which makes you feel comfortable and there's not much of a wait. I give it 4 stars with the choice and prices of the glasses and contacts. I know it is of quality but Costco contacts deals are cheaper, and so is ordering trendy frames online which can be hard to compete with. I like to do things all at once and they didn't have my prescription to trial contact lenses so I have to go back for a follow up. I would give it 5 stars if I was able to just walk out and be all done.

For my comprehensive eye exam today, it was a fantastic experience. The doctor was extremely detailed on her exam. She answered my questions without rush, and provided additional medical advice on where and what I should go for in regards to my cataract, glaucoma, and floaters. A very important thing to note is that even after I left, the doctor even called to give me further information on floaters. The staff member was also very professional and friendly. She helped me pick out my frames and bifocal lenses with patience. After I finished picking out everything, it was already into their lunch hours. From this, you can definitely see this place’s detailed, professional...read full review
