Best eye doctor, in LA. I been going to him since I was a little girl I’m 34yrs old now. He’s very patient and passionate about his job and clients. Receptionist is very nice and helpful. Not long wait time they get you in and out and explain everything about your appointment to you.

From start to finish - exceptional service! Friendly, efficient, good selection of glasses, great doctor/exam! They exceeded my expectations! I am extra impressed with the Dr., who explained everything . He was very thorough. It was the greatest experience I've had in a long time!
IMPORTANT UPDATE: Its been a few weeks and have been having trouble with my glasses and getting adjusted and went in to see what could be done. They sent replacements and still had trouble adjusting and went back and was told “i dont have to wear glasses then” just unfortunate and disappointing to know that i will never be coming back, wont be recommending, and will be submitting a formal grievance with my insurance. I tried being polite about this since its my 1st time in awhile trying glasses. Original Review: Went to this place based off of convenience and reviews and I was with Dr. Shapiro. Appointment ran about an hour, normal, and he was thorough and was easy to talk to. I got my questions answered and found out a little more about my eyes. When I picked frames within my insurance, it was a decent sized option and even had colors and various frame types. Enjoyed the experience and can't wait for my glasses to come in! This place works with Medi-Cal plans! Bonus: Atmosphere is clean, nice, and is very cozy.
Always look forward to my annual eye exam with Dr. Shapiro! His staff is lovely, I never have to wait, and it's a pleasure to chat with the doctor who has a curious mind and is great at answering my questions about the eyes and optometry.
Dr. Shapiro is detailed, professional and takes the time that is needed to ensure your prescription is what you need. He’s kind, funny and friendly which helps make the visit easier. I highly recommend Dr. Shapiro and his team.
