MIchael Y. Wong's Online Review Report Card

I had similar bad experiences as the others, I wish I had read these reviews before getting my Lasik from Dr. Wong. He adjusted my visions so that one eye was for far distance and another eye for short distance. Shortly after the surgery I felt really weird with the vision, with one eye overworking it seems, he said I just needed to get used to of the new vision and it will take time. He also prescribed reading glasses so it was supposed to help me adjusting to the new vision. I tried getting used to this new vision, little had I became aware that my vision was deteriorating over time. Within two years, I started having trouble seeing anything that’s a few feet away. After many attempts of booking an appointment with him (trying to book in September and was told for an appointment in 2023) I had to go through another doctor first so that doctor could help me get to Dr. WONG. Long story short, he proposed that I do a second enhancement at a discount for another thousand. I asked for a different doctor this time and he said that the other doctor doesn’t want to “jump in”, and that only he can do the 2nd surgery. I felt I had no choices but now after reading the other reviews, I would rather spend more money elsewhere. It is my eyes after all and it’s not something to be saving money on. I already spent 5K the first time around, very disappointed with the results and how this practice responded to my situation. The other doctors may have been better but apparently once you are with Dr. Wong, you can’t change doctors.

Not recommended at all. He implanted lenses in my eyes from a company where he is an advisor. Although I was skeptical of this I went along. Once he had me as you as a patient, I felt like I was just an account. The lens did not help much; an impartial doctor would have chosen the best lens for me, whether or not it’s “their”lens. His fees are much higher due to the hype he gets. Too much hype and bad service. Not recommended. Does not accept some of the best insurance either so be ready to be treated like an account and pay top dollar.

Worst doctor. Does not answer your concerns and runs a factory style practice. Although he claims to accept all insurance, he is tier 2 so you pay all his top dollar fees. His practice mates won’t talk to you if you have an appointment and he is not there - and you still pay $300 for that appointment. He hates answering questions. Views patients in a very condensing manner. You would just be an account. Not recommended at all.

Dr. Wong did my LASIK. The experience was top notch - he made me feel at ease, the procedure was quick, and he thoroughly explained everything happening. I highly recommend Dr. Wong.

My experience with Dr. Wong was wonderful. I’ve used readers for over 20 years, and now, I don’t need glasses at all! He was very kind, knowledgeable, and the office staff are first rate. I highly recommend ??

I went from being legally blind 4 times over to not needing glasses as all. And Dr. Wong did it with minimal fuss. He's also operated on a few of my relatives. No issues. He probably has done thousands of eye surgeries.

I was referred about 18 years ago to Dr Wong for Lasik eye surgery by a friend who is an opthamologist. I had been near-sighted since I was eleven, and had worn glasses and contacts. I am now 62. In the 18 years since the surgery, I've enjoyed good distance vision without corrective lenses. This has been a blessing for me. I have not seen Dr Wong in some time, but always found him to be attentive to my questions and concerns.

Went for a consultation for an eye procedure. I had 5 questions on my sticky pad that would have taken 10 minutes to answer. Dr. Wong was upset that I had a list of questions and was clearly displeased. It may have been a long day for him but really glad that he dismissed me that way so I know what kind of doctor he is before going through with the procedure

I had my Lasik surgery in September 2017. Being a physician myself, I had apprehensions about the surgery . Dr. Wong instantly put me at ease with his thorough explanations of the procedure and the elaborate checks and balances that their institute puts in, to avoid an untoward circumstance. He has enormous experience and skill. I recovered nicely over the next few days and got 20/20 vision. Their office was extremely professional, and helpful before and after the procedure. Thanks Dr. Wong!!

I had lenses replaced in both eyes by Dr. Wong. I followed his strict instruction and have much improved vision in both eyes. During my followup visit, I tried to tell him that I was having problems reading because of severe "floaties". He grew angry and told me they would eventually go away. It's been 4 years now and they are as bad as they were right after the operation. I dont know what my options are. Do I sue him? Make sure you get all your questions answered before surgery and get other opinions. As he calls it, "The Wong Way" isn't necessarily the best way. Do your homework.
