Placentia Optometry

This is a great place. They satisfy every aspect of what you’re looking for: aesthetics, professionalism, short wait times, experience and knowledge.
I haven’t been to the eye doctor in probably 10 years but I finally decided to just make the appointment and I chose this one because it was closest to my house and they took my insurance. I didnt expect to be so impressed. They were able to make the appointment the same day which was cool. The doctor was awesome. He was patient and informative. He made me feel comfortable to ask him lots of questions. I love learning so that was my favorite part.

First and foremost, once you step through the doors, you can feel the positive energy of everyone in the store. Everyone is very welcoming that they make you feel like a family member with the lovely smiles and joyful personality. The receptionist, Bobby, was very nice. We had an amazing conversation of the history of the city and all the locations near by. She was very engaging and sweet.
Once you sign in and and are called for your exam, you enter this room with the latest and greatest in optometry gear. I felt like a kid all over wanting to play with flashing buttons and equipment. It was also a positive that they explained everything each machine was used for. Very informative.
Once you get to see Dr. Merino, the environment heightens. It becomes even more friendly and positive. Dr. Merino was an amazing person and very knowledgeable in his profession. I was very nervous about getting classes, but he made the experience fun and enjoyable. We also had a great conversation while he was examining my vision, which was better than other optometrist that make it awkward by staying quiet. Dr. Merino honestly has been one of the best optometrist I’ve been too and will continue to go for all my vision needs.
If you are looking for a great environment, positive staff, and over all great experience, I say COME TO DR. MERINO!!! I approve 100%!!!

The staff was friendly and courteous, I got my eye exam done quickly, and Dr. Merino was kind and thorough. Will come again, highly recommend!

Highly recommended! Dr. Merino and his staff are professional, provide excellent service, and a welcoming environment for families.

This was our first visit to this office. The office staff was very friendly and helpful very clean too. The office manager went out of her way to make sure they took my insurance plan. Dr. Merino was very knowledgeable, and professional. It was actually nice to have an exam and the doctor take their time to explain everything they are doing. I would recommend this Dr. to all my friends and family.

I am a huge believer of «if you don’t try you’ll never know «here is more of «you’ll miss out if you don’t go» i feel so honored to have Dr. Merino and his family part of my life. I hate/​hated doctors because of my passed experiences and when i came in to his office i felt so welcomed and he guide me through everything he was going to do so that i knew what was going to happen. I could honestly say that i am so pleased with his work. He really goes beyond his job to help his patients. His an amazing Optometrist. DO NOT LET IT BE YOU WHO MISSES OUT!!!

Dr Merino is great, extremely knowledgeable and friendly. He and his staff go above and beyond. Highly recommend.

Bobby is a such a wonderful person! She patiently helped me out with the contacts I was receiving, and even helped me pick the right color! I am very pleased with the service.

By far one of the best eye exam I’ve had. I highly recommend Dr. Merino. Very friendly and professional. The receptionist Sabrina was a sweetheart. I am so happy with my new glasses. I will definitely be back to try out their other services.

We love Dr Merino. He has taken care of my family for a few years. We used to see him since he was in Fullerton. His Placentia office is beautiful with new equipment. He is very professional and friendly. His office staff are very nice also. I highly recommend him
