Richard L Rabin MD

I started going to Walnut Creek Eye Care when my opthamologist retired, and I couldn't be happier. The office itself is bright, clean, and the staff were really friendly & helpful and got me in right at my scheduled appointment time. During my appointment, Dr. Rabin took the time to answer all my questions without making me feel rushed. The Optometry department helped me pick out a new pair of glasses and I love them! I'd highly recommend Walnut Creek Eye Care and Dr. Rabin for anyone looking for opthamology services.

Dr. Rabin and his staff recently provided excellent quality care as I had to undergo a terigium (sp?). They were prompt with their scheduling, have the latest technology and make billing easy. Dr. Rabin was knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable before the procedure and answered all of my questions. My wife and I are both happy with our new opthalmologist after our previous one retired.

Dr. Valarie Okakpu saved my vision. For the first time in decades, I can finally see well, and it's all thanks to her. I have visited many optometrists and retina specialists over the years, but Dr. Okakpu is the first to provide me with a prescription that is truly accurate. She is not only an exceptional professional but also incredibly knowledgeable and dedicated. Her commitment to getting it just right stems from her empathy and diligence. Dr. Valarie Okakpu is simply the best, and I am profoundly grateful for her care.

I first visited Dr. Rabin’s office in 2020. His office was very clean and organized and the staff were kind and helpful. I haven’t needed eye surgery but if I did he would be my first choice of surgeon. I have so much confidence in him. I recommend him to anyone looking for the best.

I had eye disease and visited Dr. Rubin’s office in summer of 2023. He only read his assistant’ patient descriptions and wrote a prescription. When I asked him what were medicine he gave me and what were mechanisms (I had highest education in medicine and biology). His answer was “I do not have time to answer your question”. His working ethics and professionalism were unbelievable bad. Of course, I did not visit his office in follow up appointment. But he called me and remind me to take serious about my eye problem. That was good.
