"Dr. Yu was an incredibly competent and caring medical professional, and truly a godsend... She fixed my excruciating pain, and by the end of the day, my pain level was at a one. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Yu."
- Patient review, LocalityBiz"I am sorry I went here... seems like a bit of a factory. I was shamed for not managing my hearing loss the way I was supposed to... if you want some modicum of respect and compassion for a hearing issue, maybe go elsewhere!"
- Patient review, MyVisionCare"WARNING: If you purchase frames/lenses & return them you will pay a 25% restocking fee of the total sale price (before any insurance). At the time of purchase I asked what the return policy was and was told 90 days--no mention of the 25% restocking fee---very deceptive business practice."
