Manuel D Gonzalez OD

I am officially fed up with this office. The last time I ordered contacts they took over a month to come in and I had to chase them to even get updates on my contacts. Sometimes they don’t even answer the phone at all. The last straw was when I came all the way from Rosemead on a bus and called them to let them know I was going to be 15 minutes late because my last bus hadn’t showed up in half an hour and they were going to have to reschedule. I had been in between buses for at least 45 minutes at that point and had to go straight home. Also I never had this problem at a different office but my contacts were breaking super fast and they weren’t lasting a month like they were supposed to. I started going to this office because I’d heard it was cheaper but learned you get what you pay for. I don’t mind paying more for better and more reliable service.

I’ve been coming to this office for many years. My daughter and I both wear contacts and need an annual exam every year. The prices for contacts here are amazing . The service this optometrist provides is great. He is calm, and thorough and he makes us feel comfortable. He explains things very well too. I always recommend this office to my friends and family.

Dr. G’s office is small but very welcoming. This was my first time at the office and I will continue coming here. He noticed my eye nerves were weak and he is the first doctor to bring that to my attention. I did have an issue with my insurance coverage on my lenses... I picked my glasses at Target Optical at a much cheaper rate with my insurance benefits. The breakdown was easier to understand. I did order my contacts for an entire year through Dr. G’s office and paid 129$ day of and I’ll be receiving a 50$ rebate! Can not complain there! Thank you guys so much!

I purchased prescription glasses from here and was really blown away by the staff, especially Myra. My coworker and I both came in together and were really picky about our glasses and she was so patient and helpful with the both of us. My glasses came back defective from my insurance company's lab and they bent over backwards to get me a new pair and provide me with a temporary pair along with a lot of adjustments to make them work for me in the meantime. I honestly feel like my situation has a total pain in the rear but they have never treated me like that. I really like and appreciate this place and although I didn't get my exam here done before, I intend to in the future because I've met Dr. Gonzalez while in the office and found him to be very nice as well!

Dr. Gonzalez and his staff are friendly, professional and provide great service. Prices with insurance are decent. My only advice is, if you are planning to get a second pair of glasses without insurance DO NOT get them here. I got a quote from this office on a pair of sunglasses, lenses only (using my own frames)and was given a price of $480.00 (progressive $255.00, polarized $150 and polycarbonate $75.00). I went to Costco and bought them for $160.99.
