Sharp Rees-Stealy La Mesa West Ophthalmology
7862 El Cajon Blvd,
La Mesa, CA

I've been coming here for years and always had outstanding service from a professional, caring staff no matter what department I visit with my family. Regarding the previous post referencing the person with the "service animal," I appreciate Sharp removing unauthorized animals from a medical facility. Too many people call their untrained, non-certified "comfort animals" their service animals. More businesses are starting to crack down on the abuse of this designation, protecting their other customers from the needy, inconsiderate few. I'm sure Sharp would not eject a real service animal.True service animals have extensive training and are certified as such. Your comfort doggy isn't automatically protected by the powers-that-be so they can be carried around medical facilities and restaurants that are smart enough to put health concerns in front of political correctness. Good job Sharp!

Well to start, the building is outdated and feels very stale and uncomfortable. I did a walk in appointment and the wait was just over 2 hours. That part I'm not even that upset about because I understand it's a walk in. BUT, the receptionist was rude and obviously tired, I asked her for an approximate wait time and she rolled her eyes and said about half an hour, HA, multiply that by 4. Aside from her being awful, I patiently waited until it was my turn for the doctor to see me. The nurse and the doctor were very nice. But when they ran tests on me it didn't show anything was wrong with me when there CLEARLY was a health problem with me. So they said they would send the sample to the lab for further diagnostics and get back to me in a day or two via phone call. I waited A WEEK and got no response, and I'm still ill. So I called back, I didn't really know who to contact but someone just said the lab shows there's nothing wrong with my sample. I called back again the next day to try to contact the same doctor and he gave me the same response, the lab shows nothing and he gave me no other options, so I just remained sick for several weeks and forced my body to heal on its own. If you can, definitely drive the extra few miles to a different sharp rees. This location is a sad excuse for a hospital, I was honestly super surprised.

My daughter was kicked out of the building by the office manager because she has a service animal. Not cool. Reported it to Sharp. Her dad did not get the cancer removed from his arm.
