Davidorf Eye Group

I have been visiting here for 3 years– I always receive courteous professionalism from the receptionists, a kind and gentle touch from Dr. Davidorf when he checks my eyes, and then checks them twice because I’m sure I’m going blind every year that passes. Also, they have a great Optical center that usually has a buy one get one 50% off on their glasses and sunglasses! I just wish I didn’t have to wait 30 minutes in the waiting room when I arrive on time for my scheduled appointment, but this all makes it worth it

I had a LASIK procedure by Dr John Davidorf more than nine years ago. It was a great decision for me… I could no longer tolerate contacts. It’s a great decision if you play sports or just tired of glasses. The results have been fantastic ²⁰⁄₂₀ and ²⁰⁄₁₀. My experience with the office staff has been great, they are very professional and caring.

I first went to this office 4 yrs ago. I had a severe irritation in my left eye. As a corneal transplant patient, I need immediate attention. I received it here. Fast forward to December 2015, similar irritation. Dr. Gellerman was very concerned and treated me kindly. Thanks to his thorough exam and experience, I received the eyedrops necessary to cure my problem. I’ve read other reviews about wait time, etc… what I have to say is when you have a great office, full of well qualified doctors, and professional staff… people will come. They do have a lot of patients, but I feel that it’s worth the wait. These are my one and only pair of eyeballs, don’t rush. I highly recommend this office

Dr. Jonathan Davidorf performed LASIK on my eyes 16 years ago. It was the best decision I ever made. I felt 10 years younger instantly the next day. My vision went from needing glasses to see afar, to seeing ²⁰⁄₂₀. At age 46 I still don’t wear glasses… my vision is excellent. I am an avid reader and have no problems.
The procedure is painless and goes fast. I had slight stinging in my eyes following the surgery but that went away the next day. If you keep your eyes closed, you won’t feel the sting so I suggest a long nap after the procedure. I read that the new LASIK technology recuces the stinging by 70 percent so it may be a non-​issue.
The cost is now half what I paid back in 1999 (it was a new technology when I had the procedure). Dr. Davidorf’s father is also an opthamologist and works in the office with his son. They both have 60 years experience combined and I cannot recommend them enough. They are both super nice and make you feel very comfortable.

This was the third time I went in for one issue, an eye sty. The two times before, he had recommended I do heat compress and come back in a couple of weeks. Finally he tells me if I want to remove it, that I should make a third appointment to have done. What an indecisive doctor (looking back, I should have not gone back the second time). I went back only because my eye sight had gotten blurry, which was very important to me. So, I did make the appointment to have it removed. I was tired of going in for nothing!
This is my third visit. I go in thinking he is going to remove this sty. He starts babbling about how trivial this thing is, this is just a little eye problem that isn’t so critical to worry about, that I am taking his time from other patients, and I should decide whether or not I want to do this, while bashing me about the fact that I must have been told by the doctor who did my cataract surgery that my eye sight would not be perfect and that I might need glasses for the rest of my life. He also said, in his rage, that «when us doctors get together in conferences, we laugh about how patients are always coming back after surgery and complaining about their eye sight, and how we tell them that we warned you about this». He kept going on and on and pointing to his watch and finally leaves the office pissed off. His nurse wasn’t any nicer either. Without ever having a smile on her face the whole time I was there taking up their important time! What a piece of work this Jonathan Davidorf is! I was so shocked he talked to me this way that I sat there with my mouth open. How dare you talk to me that way! How dare you trivialize my problems and how dare you treat ANY ONE that way. You are the worst doctor I have ever visited for a an eye problem! Wow! I told my husband and he said if he was there with me, he would told him a thing or so about how to talk to people.
I wish I could put a –5 star to his name! He didn’t deserve all the money that he got from my insurance! Hopefully, when you start having eye problems, you won’t have an ass like yourself for a doctor…

Could not be happier! The Entire Staff was very friendly and professional. The Doctor was very caring and knowledgeable. We are monitoring for Glaucoma and cataracts and My experience was top rate. I have seen really awful ratings here in the Optics Dept. Perhaps a change of personnel was or is in order. This is the Dept that required good Customer Service in my opinion. Thanks Dr. for the good news today :)

He’s the absolute best. I can’t say enough about Dr J. I highly recommend him. He’s very knowledgeable and has a wonderfully helpful staff. I’ve taken my mom and sisters to him. I wouldn’t go to anyone else.

Both of my eyes had advanced cataracts, and my vision was really poor. Dr. Jonathan Davidorf performed cataract surgery on both of my eyes within a few days apart, and the results are amazing! I am very happy with my vision now. Although I had regular lenses installed, my far sight is perfect; and for my near sight, I only need simple over-​the-​counter reading glasses.
I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Dr. Davidorf and his staff for such smooth and flawless procedures — all the way from pre-​op consultation, scheduling, operation, post-​ops, to the follow-​up visits. Everything was done perfectly. Every single one of the staff members that I encountered was very knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, and exhibited ultimate professionalism. Thank you all so very much!
I have nothing but the strongest recommendation for Dr. Davidorf, his top-​notch staff, and his very organized, well-​managed eye group.

I just want to thank the doctors and staff of Davidorf Eye Group. Dr. Jonathan Davidorf help me improved my vision to ²⁰⁄₂₀ after my LASIK. Now I’m glasses free. I recommend this office for good quality of care.

I am writing to thank Dr. Jonathan Davidorf for restoring my reading vision a second time. He successfully did lasik 10 years ago for both reading and driving, but my reading vision began to show some decline after nine years. In spite of my age, he performed a successful revision and a year later the results are excellent. What astonishes me is that I am as squeamish as anyone could be about my eyes being touched, but he is so immensely patient and competent that he somehow got me through it. Twice!

This place has the worst service ever! I asked for my prescription and they told me that it’s expired and that I needed to make an apt and I said well no dir that’s why I’m asking for my prescription because I’m going with another doctor!!! DON’T RECOMMEND THIS PLACE

I went to Dr. Davidoff last week for Lasik surgery last week. I had been looking for someone closer to home, but I didn’t find anyone that stood out. At the suggestion of my parents, who are patients of Dr. Davidoff, I flew out. When I consider the idea of someone cutting into my eye with a laser I’m really looking for two things, (1) someone who inspires confidence before the surgery and communicates well and (2) someone who does a really good job on the surgery itself. I appreciated the doctor on both counts and I couldn’t be happier with the results. I also appreciated the call from the doctor checking up later in the day.

I have been coming here for years. I have always had a pleasant experience with both father and son and staff in the back. Haven’t had a great experience with reception area butt do not let that stop you from getting the best eye care possible with the doctors.

I always ask myself why I keep coming back to this place. I guess it is because it is just walking distance from my house. However, after my last visit here, I have decided I will no longer set foot in this place. I will first start off by saying whoever is training these women, is doing a horrendous job. After speaking with Patrick (Office Manager), I realized why everyone is miserable. He is anything but personable or compassionate and knows nothing about customer service.
My initial complaint was about the RUDE and disrespectful older lady Olga in optical. She has no manners and acted like a child when I asked her a simple question regarding my insurance. It is as if I disturbed her from her personal phone call. The time my son needed an adjustment on his glasses, I waited 40 minutes for her to come back from a break the newer lady said she was on.
Their glasses and doctors are great but they really should consider changing their staff with employees who actually enjoy being there and servicing others as opposed to getting a simple paycheck! (I have never had to write a review on Unilocal but this really upset me.)

Saw Dr. Masry in June. He was fine. The followup by the staff in this office was unacceptable. Had to call multiple times for pricing on the procedure I was requesting. When the gal finally called back she was uniformed and quoted mis-​information.
If I ever saw Dr. Masry again, in would never be in this office.

Love Dr. J. He did Lasik on me 15 years ago and my distance is still perfect. However, his Optometry department where you get your glasses is HORRIBLE. The last 3 times I have been there, its been a problem. Wrong prescription put in the glasses, Oh, that’s not your name? Wrong information, asked for computer glasses, got readers. Tried to get my prescription to go somewhere else, was told they aren’t allowed to give it to me. They act like you are bothering them, and they want to get you in and out as fast as possible. My advice, go to Dr. J for your exam, but get your glasses somewhere else.

I saw Dr Bernard Davidorf to inquire about lasik touch up. I am grateful for his honesty. I was told I was better off with wearing glasses since I had a small correction. He explained the pros and cons and didn’t give me the run around.
I highly recommend this practice.
Very satisfied with this service

It’s refreshing to visit a eye care practice like this! Upon entering this practice I was impressed with a very clean environment, which is definitely something I appreciate in a doctors office. I had a short wait and then was greeted by the office staff about my visit. Both the staff and Dr. Davidorf were busy this day but they all took the time to make sure my needs were met for the visit. If you are looking for an eye doctor in the greater Los Angeles area or thousand oaks specifically this is a professional and clean environment for eye care. This practice performs a wide variety of ophthalmology services including LASIK eye surgery and cataract surgery. I would recommend this eye care practice to any of my friends and family.

Huh, they changed my prescription for glasses AND contacts even though it was VERY similar to the ones I have. I almost felt like they wanted to sell me a whole new set. My sensitive eyes and the vision issues were sort of pushed to the side. I was told to let them know if «it gets worse.» After my exam the rude desk lady told me to go to the contact/​glasses area (I would not spend 3xs the amount for glasses or contacts when there’s COSTCO!?)
When the lady came out she asked me if I’ve ever worn contacts (yes, everyday), So when I responded YES she said «Well there’s a $ 59 FITTING FEE ANYWAY. This is just $ 59 for what??? You don’t need to fit me for jack?! The funny thing is… I did not go in for a new prescription. Good thing I know a little about Optometry and the tiny bit of difference doesn’t necessarily mean I need to change it!!!

I’m so annoyed right now!
Had my appointment on April 1, was told my contact prescription was the same and decided not to order any new boxes. I had some at home and they’re cheaper at Costco. I check it against my previous prescription when I get home and it’s not the same. I get ahold of the dr and she tells me it’s the same as last time, but since it isn’t written the same, there was probably an error on the one from last year. Awesome. I’ve been wearing the wrong contacts for a year.
I get to Costco about a week and a half later to fill the prescription and order some; the optometrist there tells me that these contacts don’t exist in the brand ordered for me. I finally get ahold of the dr a few days later and she realizes that she made an error. She’ll order a trial pair of the new contacts and they’ll call me when they come in.
It’s been two weeks since they ordered them (it is May 2^nd today) and they’re not in. I’ve called twice. They’re «waiting on one eye,» I was told the first time I called. Today I was told, «They’ve been back-​ordered for two weeks. We should get them anytime.» Was anyone going to ever tell me this info? It’s been more than a month since my appointment and I am still without contacts due to doctor error, delays, and back-​ordered contacts unbeknownst to me. So annoyed!!!
Maybe I will be able to see clearly in the next month or so!
