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.

I am honored to recommend Dr. Ang. Excellent Dr.!

Superb Surgeon
I was lucky enough to have Dr. Ang as my surgeon for cataract surgery. He could not have been more pleasant and helpful. My result has been great! I got new glasses and now enjoy almost perfect vision after noticing it had gotten blurry. Excellent surgeon! Thank you.

The Office staff is very cordial and helpful. I love the new office space expansion. Dr Ang is very excellent with awesome results following cataract surgery with new lens and laser surgery on other eye for a bit of vision improvement. Overall i had a most positive experience all around. Dr Ang is so cheerfully upbeat it was a pleasure to have him as my surgeon. I highly recommend their offices and will continue to use as necessary for any vision issues i have in the future.

Outstanding Professionals
The ability, confidence and knowledge of Dr. Ang and his staff are apparent from start to finish. I received a VIP like treatment and as I observed so were the other fellow patients. I knew I were in professional hands from the beginning to the end of my right eye cataract removal surgery. Thanks so much Dr. Ang and staff!

Amazing doctor!!
I brought my father to Dr. Ang because he was having some worrisome vision problems. The front staff was amazing, and we were lucky enough to see Dr. Ang that day. Not only did he get us in to be seen the same day (within a couple of hours!), there was virtually no wait when we came in. Dr. Ang is an amazing doctor who is clearly intelligent and has an amazing bedside manner. He took time to understand my father's issues and listen to his concerns. He correctly diagnosed my father very quickly--and I know that because within a day or two my father's symptoms completely resolved and he was back to normal! Could not recommend Dr. Ang any more. Thank you!!

Excellent Ophthalmoglist.
Dr. Ang handled cataract surgery on my right eye. All the people involved in my procedure were extremely helpful and knowledgeable. They treated me with the upmost courtesy and respect. They answered all my questions. Dr. Ang put me at ease by his positive demeanor, confidence, knowledge and leadership. This was important because it was my first time with him. The surgery had positive outcome. I can highly recommend other to use Dr. Michael Ang.

VIP Treatment!
Dr. Ang performed cataract surgery on both of my mother's eyes. He provided exceptional service and care from the first exam to the post-op appointment. Dr. Ang answered all the questions my mother had and relieved any anxiety she had going into the procedure. His interaction with my mother was amazing, putting her at ease and reassuring her that everything was going to be okay. As promised, both procedures were "textbook" and went smoothly without any issues. The exceptional care and treatment did not end there, but continued after the surgeries. My mother didn't feel like just another patient saying, "He treated me like family!" I agree 100%!

Trifocal lens implant Surgery
Had surgery on both eyes to reduce eye pressure and implant trifocal lenses, 1 surgery per eye a few weeks apart. The ultimate goal was to improve the long term health outlook of the optic nerves and not having a need for glasses anymore. Quite appealing for someone who wore glasses for almost ever.

I would highly recommend Dr. Ang to any one needing an ophthalmologist. He’s a friendly, highly skilled doctor who expertly performed cataract surgery on me with the outcome being 20/20 vision. He patiently listens to your needs and concerns, and then together you come up with the best treatment plan. He sees you as a person, not as a number. Thank you Dr. Ang
