Initial visit
I had my first visit with Dr. Ngo this morning. Jasmine greeted me at the front desk. First impression was very positive. She was very efficient and friendly. A bit of a wait but expected as they worked through all the new patient paperwork. All the staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. Dr Ngo was also friendly and cheerful and I believe sets the standard for the atmosphere in the office. She spent a great deal of time with me explaining all the many details of my myriad of tests. She used illustrations on the computer to explain my results which made it easier to understand the complexities of my eye conditions. I’m confident I made a good choice and will be pleased with the results in the future.

Highly recommend!
My daughter had an ulcer from a cut she got in her eye. During traveling through 4 states driving so we had to make stops to follow up with ophthalmologist to make sure things were doing what they are supposed to and wasn’t at risk of losing sight until we could get close to home. DR. NGO and her nurses were absolutely amazing from start to finish. Dr. NGO explained things perfectly her attention she gave our situation was exactly what we needed and more. She even followed up after our visit because she knew we still needed to travel 5 hours. My only disappointment is that she was so far away from where we live. I would have loved to keep her as my daughters full time ophthalmologist.

Great experience, as always
This was an intermediate office visit related to my treatment for glaucoma. As always, Dr. Ngo took the time to answer my questions, discuss treatment options and help decide the best course of action. I am confident that we have a good plan for managing this difficult condition.

I’ve been very pleased with not only the visit this week, but in prior weeks and the surgery on my eyes for cataracts. The staff is very friendly and gives really good information on what they’re going to be doing.
