List of Andrew Iwach's Reviews
I am a patient of Dr. Iwach for many years and he is a very good professional. The office recently optimized their visiting protocol (it used to be little too long) and now every visit and fast and very efficient.

Awesome Professional Services by Dr Iwach, and his staff.Wesley Lowell Renzas

Excellent and thorough--both in regular visits and in performing procedures (I had the laser treatments for glaucoma--successful.) I especially appreciate that he explains throughly what he is doing and why.

Dr. Iwach is extremely knowledgeable, and is the go-to glaucoma specialist for many doctors in the Bay Area.

This doctor may be credentialed and friendly, but he is incompetent. The practice is money-grubbing, surgery-pushing, and completely inefficient and irrational. I was sent for a consultation - which should be a 15 min discussion - and was told it would be covered by insurance. Instead I got 6 different junior people (looked like high school age) to carelessly and mindlessly conduct different tests, which took over 3 1/2 hours. When there was a big black bar of the machine in my field of vision on one of the tests, the technician said not to worry about that! There were no other patients in the waiting room that day but the doctor's explanation for the long wait was that he was having a bad day and one appt took 10 minutes longer than planned (which doesn't begin to explain a 3+ hour wait). He then examined my eyes and hurt me in the process, saying, "oh, I must have pushed too hard." I'd hate to think of what would happen if the surgery was scheduled on one of his bad days. He explained that I have a 5% chance of a problem, and disingenuously said he would sleep better if I did the surgery. Why pushing surgery for a non-problem?Then, to add insult to injury, they charged me over $200 for things they didn't even perform. When questioned, they revised it but didn't reduce my bill. When I challenged this again, they then sent the bill to a collection agency! Unbelievable, unprofessional, egregious practice. If you value your eyesight, go somewhere else.

He is a well educated and trained doctor.I gues sometimes the express shunt does not work. Revise Feb 2012 review
Reviewed On Vitals
express shunt surgery was failure. less than 1 week IOP was high. Dr removed stitches and IOP went too low. My blurry vision which needed immediate attention was ignored. Doctor did not explain what to expect as good or bad. Incorretly reommended NASID for pain which causes bleeding. Iwach is incompetent.

Selection Criteria
All the information you see here is based on our analysis of internet reviews across the seven major review platforms most used by consumers during their healthcare provider selection. The platforms we selected are Google, WebMD, Yelp, HealthGrades, Facebook, RateMDs, and Vitals. The analysis algorithm uses the compiled data of average score, recency of reviews, number of reviews, and the sentiment expressed in the written comments. It then assigns weight to each parameter based on the available research on how consumers use reviews in their doctor selection process. This report is designed to help identify the doctors with the best overall review score in an area and does not reflect the doctors' competence.
