Patient Reviews
Aug 07, 2020
I had my Lasik procedure done 7/31/20 and was seeing 20/20 by my post op exam the very next day! The care I recieved from Dr. Chesen, Dr. Cho and the whole team was EXCELLENT! Stacy, the Lasik Coordinator is awesome! She got me in for my consult quickly and did such a great job explaining the pre-op and post-op procedures! All of the technicians (so sorry if that's not your official title) are so knowledgeable and comforting! The doctors are great! After my procedure, BOTH docs took a look at my eyes to make sure everything was absolutely perfect! That, right there is above and beyond! ... oh, and they sent me home with CAKE!
