“Doctor took time to explain everything he was doing and looking at. He answered all the questions I had about eye disease in my family history . VERY CONGENIAL. He expressed care and concern for me and my questions and previous serious concern that he found and assisted me in getting immediate care for 3 or 4 years ago.”

About Dr. Danny VanDan

Dr. Danny VanDan completed his undergraduate studies at the University of California, San Diego, earning a Bachelor of Science in General Biology. He then obtained his Doctor of Optometry degree from the Illinois College of Optometry. Dr. VanDan began his career working as an optician, technician, and office manager right after high school. Driven by a strong passion for optometry, he decided to return to school to become an optometrist and enhance his patient care skills. Since 2013, Dr. VanDan has been practicing optometry. He believes optometry holds a unique place in healthcare because many patients may not regularly visit their primary care doctor or dentist when feeling healthy, but even slight changes in vision prompt them to see an optometrist. Optometrists are trained to evaluate patients for various health conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and many other diseases. Outside of work, Dr. VanDan enjoys spending time with his wife and young daughters.

He was very knowledgeable as well as being able to acknowledge the Asian genes of bad eye sight which was the exact reason I went with an Asian eye doctor & I appreciated the transparency with my type of vision ! After 4 different eye doctors, I managed to come across a great one at last!

The staff and nurses were pleasant. I didn’t have the same doctor who I scheduled with, but due to this being my first time at the clinic it wasn’t a big deal to me. The doctor was nice, engaging, funny, and of course knowledgeable. The staff was also very helpful when handling my insurance when I wasn’t too sure how to tell them my insurance info. Overall, a great experience.
All the staff I talked/saw very friendly. Didn’t even have a chance to sit down b4 being called in for my appt. I saw Danny VanDan/O.D-would for sure recommend. Very easy to talk with & explained all that was going on. *bonus-was charged the amt they quoted me- no extras added in
