September 30, 2025Stephen H.Verified patient
Dr. Yao was super friendly and engaging. She made sure to explain each procedure before moving forward with them. The office staff was friendly as well. This was the best optometrist experience I’ve had, what I loved the most is that they did not try to sell me glasses at the end of the appointment. Definitely coming back.

I enjoyed my visit with Dr. Yau. Unlike other types of doctor visits, this visit was painless, stress-free, efficient, and I was promptly seen. Dr. Yau examined my eyes thoroughly, including vision and eye health. She has a lot of modern technology and explained the test results to me. Highly recommend!
MCVerified patient

LMVerified patient
I enjoyed my eye exam! I was seen on time, actually a bit earlier than my appointment because I showed up early. Dr. Yau checked my vision and something that was bothering me with my eye. I got answers and a medication prescribed and was able to return to work quickly. Overall great experience!

DEVerified patient
I had a great experience with Dr. Katherine. She was very patient and took the time to answer all of my questions. My annual eye exam was quick and efficient, and she also gave me helpful suggestions on how to take better care of my eyes. The additional fee for the exam (on top of copay) was a bit unexpected, but overall, I had a very positive experience. Thank you!
July 7, 2026Qiongwei R.Verified patient
Front desk was very friendly and welcoming. They went over my co-pay and insurance coverage right away so there were no surprises.
The doctor was very easy to talk to, she also asked a lot of great follow up questions. They use the latest tech for exams, my checkup felt very thorough.

Everyone was amazing!
March 3, 2026Jervy M.Verified patient
Dr. Katherine Yau was incredible. For the past 10 years I have been struggling to find the right prescription. After a while the local Dr. I had been seeing started to feel like they stopped having the patience to deal with my changing eyesight. Dr. Yau listened, did not try to "sell" me on anything. In fact this team is very transparent with pricing and out of pocket costs. I will definitely be working with them again!
February 25, 2026Melissa P.Verified patient
Great experience with Dr Yau!
February 18, 2026Tanisha L.Verified patient
Dr Yau is an attentive doctor that makes me feel cared for. I would recommend her without reservation to anyone looking for an eye specialist.
