Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Kanda is far above others in her field - we have been patients for almost 20 year - she is very thorough - explaining issues well and very caring - she has an exceptional stall that goes beyond the ordinary

A competent & compassionate opthamologist!
I have been a patient of Dr. Kanda for five years. Recently she did a cataract procedure for both eyes. Complete success! Dr. Kanda serves as a role model for what every medical practitioner should be. She personifies medical excellence-

It is such a pleasure to share how much I think of and respect Dr. Kanda and her staff. She is an exceptional physician and surgeon not to mention her manner of caring about and with her patients. She truly loves what she does and she should because she is the best! My cataract surgery, one in each eye, was done with the utmost precision and little discomfort. Every time I go into my appointment I marvel at her ability to make me feel like I'm her only patient. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this woman of whom I have more respect and confidence than I can say in a short paragraph. Dr. Kanda is an absolute delight. I highly recommend her especially to those who may have had a trying medical experience in the past. In a word, she is amazing!

Dr. Kanda just completed two cataract surgeries, I was very impressed with her and the professional staff. Everything was explained clearly and I felt I was part of the decision process. Dr. Kanda personally called later in the day after each of the surgeries to see how I was doing. I couldn't have hoped for a more caring, skilled and dedicated physician. I highly recommend her.

After doing a reasonable amount of research, Dr. Kanda became my first choice for a opthamologist .....After my first visit I was impressed with her thorough examination of my eyes and her willingness to answer all my questions. And when I say all, I mean all. She took the time to answer all my questions thoroughly and never once did she get defensive about any of my questions.

Dr. Kanda is the absolute best ophthalmologist in the Valley. Her patients love her (which is evident when they all rave about her while we're in the waiting room). She calls you personally whenever the need arises which is practically unheard of these days. Had cataract surgery in both eyes and Dr. K was a consummate professional. She is also one of the nicest doctors I've every seen.
