“The office is a little loud and echoey because it is in the middle of a kind of internal, commercial courtyard. It doesn’t have complete walls so you can hear people going to the open restaurants and office around and above it. It felt a little less private and calm than I would like because of it. However the staff and provider were first rate - attentive, clear, willing to explain in easy to understand terms. I would definitely recommend Dr. Yu, but maybe visit her at another location she practices in.”

“Annie and her staff are such welcoming people who made what is typically a routine eye exam actually feel fun and they were super helpful in ordering contacts for me and setting me up to get a rebate.”

About Dr. Annie Yu
Annie Yu, O.D. received her Doctor of Optometry from Pacific University Forest Grove Campus in 2020. She completed her undergraduate studies at the University of Washington, earning a Bachelor of Science in Psychology in 2016. Dr. Yu specializes in specialty contact lenses. Having visited optometrists her entire life, she has seen firsthand the positive effects this profession can have on people's lives. This experience motivated her to become an optometrist, as she enjoys the combination of science and physics along with working closely with her patients. In addition to providing ocular education, Dr. Yu loves developing a personal connection with each patient. She enjoys showing her patients that an eye exam is so much more than just a refraction. To Dr. Yu, it's the best feeling when her patients are able to take away something valuable from their eye exam.

So easy to be seen here. Dr. Yu was charming and easy to talk to and ask questions of. No pressure at all to make a purchase which will bring me back for sure.

The whole experience was positive. The assistant who first saw me, and the optometrist who did the exam and gave me eyeglass prescriptions, were absolutely delightful. Highly recommended.
