Everything was great, except I didn't know the building was called "GHEI." This made finding it a challenge when the map takes you to the back side of the building for the surgery center that has the same address. When I called the number sent with the reminder message, it's just a voicemail box, so there was no way to call to ask for guidance.

Wait time to see the dr. Is awful, you need more check in staff and it seems that the assistance to the dr. In the back need more help too. I shouldn't wait 30 min. After my scheduled appointment to see the dr. Due to short staff in the front desk and in the back assistance.

Hi, really good overall experience. I just don't like the fact that we have to pay, in essence, two co-pays, one for the facility, one for the physician. So that's the only thing that would hold me back from recommending the place to other people. Thanks. Bye.

Hi, I love Dr. Stephen Prepas. He's one of the best doctors. I absolutely love UC Irvine Gavin Eye Institute. The staff is amazing, extremely helpful, extremely sweet, and I wouldn't change anything about them. I'm so lucky to be able to come there with my child and I would not change anything there. Everything is perfect. Thank you.
