2 hours after arriving and still haven’t met the Doctor, ushered into a standing room only waiting room (cause all the seats were taken) and during Covid times I’m pretty sure all of these people are not allowed to be there waiting around. Ended up walking out without the exam….what a joke this place is. None of the front staff knew what was going on. If you value your time, I do not recommend this place at all!!
The doctor and his colleagues clearly run an appointment mill–requiring multiple visits, having a totally inadequate waiting room, reffusing to list an email or even letting their answering machince accept appointment cancellations. Avoid this doctor and his officemates at all costs!
Excellent in every aspect!!! My surgery went extremely well!!! Very pleased with Dr Ho Yuen
Had the same experience, the receptionist for this Dr. was rude right form the start arrived 20 min early, all that was done was the initial eye chart and some drops for a test with a hand held machine, an hr later was still there, a patient before me had been there since 1:15 and and 4:20 he and i were still there-I was in this office waiting for this Doctor fo 1.5 hrs i asked the person that did the initial, she said at least another hour, she said they were really busy today !!! are you kidding i told her they should have contacted patients to advise they had overbooked ,they should have advised of the wait time to patients when they arrived and she also was rude and tried to blame me for complaining-I Walked out !-Never go here -they do not care about how long anyone is sitting there, Oh and this was a rescheduled appt-they called me to two weeks earlier because the appt. I had- all of sudden the Dr was not coming in that day -Never have I been treated so badly in a Doctors office so Disgraceful ! what an awful experience and will never go back , Will be contacting bc medical for them to monitor this offices billing to their office . Horrendous !
I recently had the privilege of being under the care of an exceptional eye specialist who, with thoughtful and meticulous attention, played a pivotal role in detecting a potential vision-threatening condition early on. Dr. Ho Yuen demonstrated a level of care that went beyond the ordinary, ensuring that my eyesight was preserved and a serious eye condition was identified before it could progress further.
During the examination, their thoroughness and expertise became evident as they carefully assessed even the subtlest symptoms that might have otherwise been overlooked.
Dr. Ho not only identified the issue but also took the time to explain the diagnosis and discuss the available treatment options. This clear and transparent communication fostered trust and allowed me to actively participate in decisions regarding my eye care.
I am profoundly grateful for Dr. Ho’s compassionate and skillful care, which undoubtedly played a pivotal role in preserving my vision.
