Vivian V Via Google My Business - Dr. Ali Zaidi

3 years ago

The staff is always cheerful and efficient and Dr. Zaidi is likewise, as well as genuinely interested in his subject and patients. A personable, relaxed and expert physician who unlike the two others Ive seen said hed rather not operate on my macular pucker unless nothing else would work and instead suggested I get my vision retested for a different kind of corrective prescription. That led me to Dr. Wong in the same office who really chased down my issue which turned out to be some double vision; she prescribed prism lenses that may make surgery unnecessary. That $75 was well spent and I left a very happy customer.

Dr. Zaidi performed a vitrectomy on me after my detached retina. His skill and care has been exemplary. I have had several follow-ups with him and he is always happy to discuss any questions I have. I highly recommend Dr. Zaidi and all the staff at Pacific Eye Associates!

Dulci Edge Via Google My Business - Dr. Karen W. Oxford

3 years ago

I had an appointment with Dr. Oxford and was entirely unpleased with my experience. It was beyond obvious that she was in a rush; all of my questions were answered with curt, minimal explanations. I mentioned several times that I was a cancer patient and wondered if the diagnosis might be correlated to Chemo, which she never addressed, not even bothering to ask the extent of my treatment. Her treatment suggestion was to stop using contacts, use drops and come back in a month. When I explained that I had already been doing that for many months with no improvement, she brushed it aside and said "This takes a long time to heal". I also mentioned that without contacts I have extremely limited vision, making it very difficult for me to take care of my 3 year old, drive or do my job. Her response was to set me up with an occupational therapist who could show me how to enlarge the print on my computer (Thanks, this is 2020, I know how to do that for myself). These are genuine quality of life issues that she brushed aside in a patronizing manner. All in, Dr. Oxford was dismissive with very little time or energy spent going over her assessment of my issue, or offering any real, concrete options for remedying the situation. After a year of heavy chemo and multiple surgeries, I have been around some truly incredible doctors who offer exceptional care and go the extra mile for their patients. Sadly, Dr. Oxford can not be counted among those doctors. I felt like a task on her to-do list and nothing more. The entire appointment was a waste of time and money and I'll be seeking a second opinion. Dr. Oxford should take the time to treat patients like people or retire.
