I arrived at 12:40 for a 12:45 appointment. My Dr was leaving for lunch as I arrived and waved to the receptionists on her way out. After waiting for her to return from lunch, she told me to "keep doing what you're doing" and sent me on my way. I have chronic eye styes and they are getting worse; she tells me to keep doing the same thing?!? Either this place/Dr doesn't care or doesn't listen. Avoid at all costs.
Verified patient
I have Thygeson's superficial punctate keratitis, which usually does not present a lot of trouble but flares up from time to time. The ophthalmologist I had in Austin was an expert in the rather rare condition, and honestly, just a pleasant human being as well—always compassionate and educational in a way that made me feel calmer and more in control of the situation. Dr. Van, conversely, examined me as though I weren’t in the room, talking almost exclusively to the medical assistant; she then rattled off a bunch of scary possibilities about permanent and progressive damage that I’ve never heard about Thygeson's, then only afterward admitted she’s never seen the disease IRL (???). When I burst into tears, and I made it clear that this was because of her irresponsibly throwing around scary half-thoughts with no real-life experience of the disease, she was no more compassionate and shruggingly said “I’m sorry that’s what *you* got from what I said.” TLDR: Dr. Van is contemptuous.

I have seen Dr. Van previously. She removed a cataract from my right eye in September, 2019. It was a good experience! I do recommend her highly.
Verified patient
The doctor was great but they overbook appointments every time I have come into this location so it takes so long to be seen.

Incredibly amazing service.
Verified patient
Dr. Da-Thuy Van was amazing. She took the time to address my concerns and answered every question I had. She even took time to review my recent labs to see if they were related to my current symptoms. She took more addressing my concerns than my actual neurologist did. I definitely recommend this provider and office.
