North Coast Optometry

This place was awesome! I went for my first eye exam, and everyone was kind, thorough, patient and professional. I ended up needing glasses, and they were very helpful in the frame choosing process. I had no idea what to try on, and they jumped right in and started trying frames for me. It was fun! Highly recommend this office for eyesore needs! My husband also comes here, and he is happy, too.

Un-flippin’-believable!!! When I walked into North Coast Optometry this past Monday for my yearly eye exam, I was greeted with big smiles and «Good morning! How are you doing today?», from all of the girls in the front of the office. I could tell something looked different since the last time I had been there over a year ago. One of the cute girls in scrubs explained they were doing a bit of rearranging/​remodeling; and then I noticed that not only were the surroundings different, but the entire staff was different. I was handed a small form to fill out and was quickly sent back to have a few tests run to check my prescription and then escorted to the exam room. Dr. Ford, my optometrist quickly came in with a warm smile and a handshake to introduce herself, and performed my eye exam. Halfway through the exam, she did something no other doctor had ever done to me before! She put these funny drops in my eyes, and then a special dye to check for scratches that may have been caused by my contacts, and then she flipped my eyelids up and looked at them with this crazy light. When all was said and done she found that I had allergy bumps under my eyes, which explained why there have been so many times where I have put a fresh pair of contacts in and immediately felt like there was a rock in my eye (even though I knew there was nothing on my lenses). I was floored! I am 36 years old and have been wearing contacts since the 7^th grade. Never has anyone ever checked my eyes for, or diagnosed me with eye allergies! I finally felt like I wasn’t crazy! All I can say is that I had an amazing experience at the new and improved North Coast Optometry. Not to say that I had a bad experience with the former staff, because I didn’t, but the new team really went above and beyond to not only be kind to me, but spend extra time getting to know me as a person and not just another zero at the end of their paycheck. I felt like I was hanging out with girlfriends immediately. We were laughing and kidding around like we had known each other for years, but they were also very professional and knowledgeable and that is what I want in a place that is responsible for the health of my eyes. Brandea, the office manager and her girls are just dolls, and I will be loyal to this office because of the treatment I was provided with. Not to mention, it’s Friday and I just received the call that my extremely cute glasses are ready (when with the old lab, it took at least 7 days). I am beyond happy. Dr. Rummel should be extremely proud of his team. He picked some true gems! Love you girls!

I love this office and will NEVER go anywhere else! New staff, new doctor, new practice altogether. The previous staff before were rude and cheap! Messed up my prescription quite a few times. Decided to give it one last try and found out the practice was taken over. The new staff was so kind and made me feel so welcome! (not to mention the office was MUCH cleaner and remodeled. Give it a chance, you will NOT be disappointed.

Great doctor. The exam was fast and nice but when came to my insurance the front desk girls gonna tell what my insurance cover when i know what it cover trying to get make me to go over my insurance budget to pay out pocket naw i think I’ll take my prescription and go

The Doctor was trained, professional, and conducted a good exam. What I cannot stand are businesses that misrepresent their hours. When your website and all public facing materials state that you are open until X time, you should be open until X time. People adjust their lives to run errands, the least you could do is take five seconds to adjust your website that SERVES the public.
It’s not the doctors, just whoever makes the business decisions and the front staff (mostly).

SUPER UNPROFESSIONAL! I am not a person to take my time to write reviews, but I really think this is worth it. I do not recommend this place to anyone. Dr is really nice, I feel bad for the doctors that work here because of there staff.

Employees are always super friendly. The office is small but it carries good selections of high fashion glasses frames like Jimmy choo, burberry, DG, ray-​ban, bebe… The price is very affordable. I would recommend this eye office.

We love Dr. Leong
We took both of our sons here for their eye exams. Dr. Leong is very patient and professional. The support staff were very friendly and caring also. I would highly recommend this practice.

Dr. Lundquist is an excellent doctor who was recommended to me by one of the best eye specialists in San Diego. He patiently answered all of my questions during the eye exam and is quite knowledgeable. I have seen him twice and he was very helpful both times. The staff are friendly, as well. I didn’t purchase my prescriptive glasses on site; however, as they were on the higher end of the market and my insurance just didn’t cover enough of the cost.
