Caring Eyes Optometry

I was in this office not too long ago because I was due for an exam. I wanted to use my insurance before the year ended. One of my cousin is a patient of Dr. Nguyen, and she really likes it here, so I thought I would come and give it a try. The office is really neat and clean, I was greeted by their optician, I had a pretty good first impressiion of the office. What I thought was good about t he office is that the wait was very short. I was seen almost immediately. Dr. Nguyen is different than other Drs I think, he seems to like to talk to his patients. He knows what he's talking about, and at the same time, he makes the exam less boring. He didn't rush me, and he explained to me my eyes condition very thoroughly. The office had a good frame selection. It varied from high-end brand names, to mid range, and they even have cute frames covered by my insurance. I wanted to stick with my insurance allowance, and was still able to get something really unique. The optician that helped me was very helpful and patient. Im glad I came to see Dr. Nguyen, the services that they provide here is great. This place is highly recommended :) Pros: Services, Dr. Nguyen, staff Cons: the office is a little hidden more

I was referred to this office by a co-worker of mines. My co-worker has been going to this office for over 10 years and she highly recommended the office. When I called to make an appointment, I was told that Dr. Agarthwas retiring and that the new owner, Dr. Nguyen was seeing patients. I was alittle skeptical at first, but decided to give the office a try anyways. Upon arrival, I was immediatedly greeted by Curt, the office manager. Dr. Nguyen then came out to meet me and took me in as soon as I was done with my paperwork. No waiting. That was great. Dr. Nguyen spent some time asking me and listening to me talk about my family, work, and hobbies. I thought that was a little strange, because usually doctors just want to see me quickly. Dr. Nguyen really made me feel relaxed. He was actually very funny and patient with me during the exam, because as you all know... those tests can be tricky. Dr. Nguyen was very calm and took his time performing the exam. He didn't rush me at all. Then he ""dilated"" my eyes. I have never had this done, but he told me that it was important to do because it gives a complete look into the health of the eyes. That was new to me but he made the experience very easy anyways. I was happy to hear that my eyes were healthy. Then Curt helped me with my glasses. Curt was amazing. He took the time to find out what kind of style I wanted then he helped me select a pair that looked great and was within my insurance allowance. I great was that? I didn't have to pay anything for the glasses. Overall, the office has a very large selection of frames. Designers frames like Gucci and Fendi, plus some other brands that were very reasonably priced. I highly recommend everyone go to this office. I live in Irvine, so this office is about 30 minutes drive for me. But I will make sure to take the family to visit Dr. Nguyen again every year. Trust me, the office is great! Pros: Relaxing. No rush. Very personal service. Cons: none that I can think of at this time. more
