It was easy and good. Only little glitch was my appt was for 11. I was earlier. Front desk said I was 11:30. I showed her confirmation for 11. She said someone called to change it - I did not get any message about that. Not sure why this conversation happened Because I was seen on time and all was smooth and easy?

April 24, 2025Milos S.Verified patient
Awful experience — unprofessional and rude staff.
I never got to see Dr. Palak Rana, and won't be returning. Before my appointment, I was told my insurance didn’t go through — turns out they entered my info incorrectly. Then, they said my appointment time (4:40 PM via ZocDoc) didn’t exist, offering only 4, 4:30, or 5.
The real issue was the rude treatment from one of the front desk staff, an older Puerto Rican woman. I came in for dry, red eyes, hoping to get an exam and prescription, but she rudely cut me off and said I couldn’t be seen for anything else since I mentioned red eyes. Her younger coworker tried to help, but this woman kept intervening unprofessionally.
I left frustrated and felt discriminated against, possibly due to my South American background. I will never return to this office, and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. I feel bad for Dr. Rana, but I won’t be back.

I had my routine eye exam done here and I'm so glad I chose them. I went during my lunch break, wait time was fairly minimal. Dr. Rana was excellent and so was the rest of the staff. I'll definitely continue coming here. Thank you Davis Eye Care!!!
