“Dr. Wong is amazing and kept track of how my eyes were before and after my last appointment. She was very attentive and friendly and I felt very comfortable with her. The office staff was also attentive even through handling other customers and patient when I spent a while picking my new glasses. They have a large selection and I could have spent more time there but wanted to keep the visit on the shorter side; it was only an hour between being seen by Dr. Wong for eyes check up then getting my prescription lenses ordered. Then it took a week for the order to be filled after the staff estimated 2 weeks which was amazing.”

About Dr. Teresa Wong
What is your favorite part of your job?
I always enjoy seeing the first reaction of someone seeing clearer for the first time. It's my favorite part of the job! I also love meeting new people and their families, then seeing them again the next year. I get such a kick out of listening to their stories and any new changes since I last saw them. It's like catching up with an old friend!
Tell me more about yourself.
I was born and raised in San Francisco and studied at UC Davis for my undergraduate studies. Since I've been in California all my life, I decided to branch out and move to Boston to pursue Optometry at the New England College of Optometry, where I earned my Doctor of Optometry degree. My favorite part of living on the East Coast was the gorgeous fall foliage. My least favorite is slipping on the ice every winter. Still, nothing beats seeing the first snowfall untouched by footprints! After graduating, I moved back to San Francisco to be with my family.
Are you affiliated with any associations?
I'm a part of the California Optometric Association and the San Francisco Optometric Society.
What are your outside interests and hobbies?
I enjoy going to new restaurants and trying new dishes! I also love to travel and experience different places and cultures. When I'm feeling like a homebody, I like to relax with a good book, binge some dramas, or work on some random crafts, such as knitting or cross-stitching.
What is your favorite vacation spot?
My current favorite place that I've traveled to is Kyoto, Japan. The area is gorgeous and I love experiencing the culture. Though, I may have spent most of that trip eating my way through the city.
If you could have one food/drink every day, what would it be?
Korean Tofu Stew! Nothing beats a hot soup on a cold day.

Great doctor. Not well organized office. Waiting room is loud. A water fountain or some drinking water source could be nice.

Actually the best eye appointment I have ever had! Turns out I have mild astigmatism that had not been caught for many years... My vision is so much clearer! Could not more highly recommend.
December 20, 2024Charles Y.Verified patient
The front desk staff were very attentive and made sure that the optometrist was aware of my specific concerns. Teresa Wong provided a clear explanation of the care I needed and thorough follow-up instructions. I would highly recommend this practice.
December 17, 2024Kathleen K.Verified patient
Teresa was exceptional! I came away very impressed with how thorough she was in making sure she got to the right prescription for me (more so than I've experienced with other optometrists), and though she was moving quickly I always felt like I could ask her questions about my exam results and any implications for me.

Fantastic experience overall. Great prep by the office with a call and some quick paperwork. The wait was short, the staff was courteous and welcoming. Dr Teresa was intelligent, informative, kind and inquisitive. 10/10 would recommend and will come back for either my next eye exam or to purchase glasses or both.
October 15, 2024Meghan G.Verified patient
