    My doc was out of town and I had a painful eye problem. Christine from Kovach's practice, where I wasn't even a patient, came to pick me up at home. took a look at my eye to determine there was no contact lens wedged in there. called a doctor who was in town, drove me there, waited and gave her opinion and then drove me to the pharmacy and dropped me back at home. I'm in her debt. I ended up having a corneal abrasion and got immediate care. She was smart, affable. met me at my front door with numbing eye drops and charged me nothing. She was an amazing angel and, although their doctor was out, the full staff there (Monica, etc) were incredibly accomadating and understanding. I'm changing practices to them. I cannot believe the care I received as a non-patient. It proves that the practice is more concerned about the patient than money. Absolutely blown away!

    I've seen quite a few negative reviews on this site, and would like to share my experience at Taub Eye Clinic. I've been a patient of Dr. Robert Taub, and previously his daughter Susan, for over 20 years (I'm only 30, so that says a a lot). During graduate school in 2005 I suffered a corneal abrasion which quickly developed into a corneal ulcer. I visited the emergency room two days in a row and saw a local ophthalmologist who gave me eye drops and sent me home for 3 days. I was unsatisfied with this result and drove back to Chicago to get a second opinion from Dr. Taub. Dr. Taub looked at my eye and immediately called the hospital to have me admitted that very morning for a week of intravenous medication. It turned out that the drops I'd been given did absolutely nothing and as a result the infection had eaten through my cornea and into my retina! I would not have vision in my left eye if it were not for Dr. Taub's swift and expert diagnosis. He is responsible for salvaging my eyesight and I cannot tell you how much that means (especially after sitting in a hospital bed for a week unable to see anything due to the excruciating pain of even opening my eyes). In the years since, I've seen Dr. Charles a few times and while he can be a bit more friendly than most (I saw a few reviews where patients were made uncomfortable by this), I still believe he does a thorough job. As far as the support staff goes, Hector is always AMAZING and the front desk girls are usually pleasant enough. I am usually at the ophthalmologist for medical assistance, not to make friends (and they are far from rude!) I can understand the cost issue, but prices for glasses/contacts are different virtually everywhere you go. Finding the best price is part of being a savvy consumer. I truly believe that the strength of the Taub Eye Clinic is in it's ability to assess and diagnose the health of the eyes. If the contacts are too expensive, you can always pay the copay, request a copy of your prescription before you leave, and shop elsewhere for these. This establishment is in the business of providing quality eye care to its patients, and I cannot put a price tag on that!Go to Taub Eye Clinic, ask for Dr. Taub and then post your experience!

    I have been going to see Dr. Charles Hoang for over 7 years now, and I felt the need to write a review after I saw some negative feedback that I was shocked to see. Dr. Hoang is an incredibly thorough and kind doctor. He is very friendly and easy to talk to, and I have always appreciated that and found it very reassuring. I have never had any issues with the office or the staff. I always get in, get out, feel that I have been given the proper tests by Dr. Hoang, as well as the right diagnosis, and nothing more. Dr. Hoang has always taken fantastic care of me, and I trust him completely. I would recommend this office and Dr. Hoang to anyone.
