I was very impressed with Dr. Payan. He was detail oriented, very observant, and helped steer me in the right direction for possible other conditions that could be contributing to my symptoms. He seemed to truly listen and was an exceptional scientific thinker in my opinion. ?

I didn’t feel rushed, you can definitely tell this office value the quality of service they provide over the quantity. Dr. Payan took his time to explaining what was going on with my daughters vision as well as how to prevent other issues that was happening from happening. I did a Google search when I found this office and I’m so glad that I chose them. Highly recommended for adult and pediatric vision care.
