My husband's very first appointment as a new patient of Dr. Starr's was a fantastic first visit. We were completely satisfied and so grateful to have found a new doctor who is not only kind and caring, but who obviously knows and specializes in diseases of the eyes. Dr. Starr's assistant, Cindy, is amazing too. She is warm with a delightful personality and she really went above and beyond helping us to make this transition a smooth and easy one. Both my husband and I are very pleased knowing we have found a new doctor that we trust will take good care of us. For anyone looking for a new doctor (like we were), he comes very highly recommended.

I first visited Dr. Starr August 2022 as my vision had changed over the past few years. I previously had Lasik over 20 years ago and I wanted to find out what my options were. During the first visit Dr. Starr was very honest and probably one of the most detail oriented people I have met (in a good way, it's my eyes)! The appointment went very smoothly and I wanted to get contacts, but due to my astigmatism that was not an option so it was either glasses or Lasik. After thinking about it a week I decided to choose Lasik procedure again as I love to play sports and be in the water. I contacted him and we had another great conversation where he gave me all the details pre and post op and made me feel very comfortable for my October 2022 appointment. On the morning of the surgery I arrived at the facility (in Newport Beach) which was brand new, very clean and had state of the art equipment. Dr. Starr double and triple checked everything before the procedure (once again, I was happy he was so detail oriented). Dr. Starr made me feel very comfortable and gave instructions during the surgery which made things go very smoothly. After the surgery I waited and relaxed so Dr. Starr could double check the surgery after a bit (can't remember how long). It took about 3 hours from when I got there to when I left, but I was so pleased that he took his time and he is very calming as he goes through the procedure. It took about a day after the surgery for my eyes to adjust as they were used to bad vision not good, but that was really not that big of a deal. It is almost a year later now and I am still so pleased with the results. Thank you Dr. Starr!

My father went to Dr. Starr many years for his LASIK and he has had no issues ever since he got it done. Finally I decided it was time to get LASIK for myself and it was the greatest thing I have ever done. Dr. Starr is one of the few doctors that I have met who genuinely cares about their patients. He explained the process very throughly and ensured that my eyes were going to be better than ever after the procedure and he wasn't wrong. The clinic where the procedure was done was very clean and they even calibrated the machine right before the surgery. The procedure was very painless and quick. Dr. Starr saw me the same day after the surgery and my eyesight was better than it has ever been before, even with wearing contacts. He is very quick to respond when you have questions and he is always honest/upfront with you. I had recently gotten some water in my eye after the procedure and Dr. Starr saw me right away to make sure that everything was good. He truly does care about his patient's health and well-being, and he strives for and succeeds at reaching perfection. I would recommend him to anyone who is interested in LASIK.
