Santi Smithsuvan, OD

Torrance, CA

No patience, she wants to complete quickly to accept more patients. I strongly recommend not to go with her.

I had such a great experience with Dr. Santi Smitshuvan and her receptionist! Right from the start, the receptionist was super friendly and made me feel comfortable as soon as I walked in. She was organized and quick, so I didn’t have to wait long. Dr. Smitshuvan was amazing! She really took her time with my eye exam and explained everything in a way that actually made sense. I felt like she genuinely cared about making sure I understood what was going on. Overall, it was a smooth, easy, and really positive visit. I left feeling confident about my eye health and grateful for the awesome care I received. Highly recommend this team!

watch out here, if you get a doctor who is awful, nothing good can happen to you here. BEWARE OF DR. YEN VALANIMA, who is rude and does a dishonest job at her exams. She looked at photos of my eyes that were not the right ones, she rushed through an exam and wrote me an incorrect prescription. I had to come back a week later to get photos done because she was not looking at my correct photos and she was even more rude and inconvenienced. She is the worst I have ever experienced and when I called the office manager to let them know, I was told this was a "miscommunication" and maybe Dr. Yen was having an off day and Dr. Yen is actually really "nice." Anyone can turn on the charm and be "nice" when they want, I'm not on a date with Dr. Yen, I'm a patient here to get my eye exam and if you don't do your job as an optometrist and on top of that are disdainful and angry at that, you have completely failed. There are other doctors here who are friendly and do great work, and the front office staff are professional too.

Great service. Professional, answered my question and helped me with my needs in a timely fashion.
