REDWOOD HEALTH CENTER

Dr. Chaya was on his A game for my postoperative appointment/checkup. He was very thorough with his exam and concerned with his findings or lack there of. Then I feel he went to a C+ game. Dr. Chaya didn't ever say things looked good but he also didn't come right out and say what he thought was wrong or the potential cause of nearly no eye sight until I asked if he was worried that I still had an active bleed in my eye then he agreed that was his worry. I understand that it's difficult to know how much sugar you might have to put with the facts of someone's health. I don't feel that any sugar should be added to facts to digest. Also following my surgery I was checked by Dr. Chaya's fellow all looked good and I didn't have to return the next day. The fellow said he would call me the next day and check on how my eye was doing. The fellow didn't call me and I had no sight could only see light. I text Dr. Chaya 3 days post surgery and he was very concerned and he called me. Thank you

The provider was excellent. I had a problem during the procedure with extereme pain at the end, there was no way to let them know. I think each patient should have a call or alert button to press if issures arise. the provider is in gerar looking at the eye and can not recognize distress signals. I have already verbalized my concerns near the end of the procedure I had a 10/10pain level and no way to let them know. Please put a process in place. Thank you.

Dr Chaya is great; the hour and a half wait to see him was hard. I respect the fact that Dr Chaya always takes all the time I need and that he does the same for his other patients. I also understand that sometimes he just cannot be in complete control of his schedule. I just wonder if too my patients are scheduled. I also understand that, because Dr Chaya is so good, everyone wants to see him. He is worth the wait, but it is still hard to wait that long.

I had no idea another doctor in training would be doing my surgery. Although Dr. Chaya was there, he was instructing a less experienced doctor to do my surgery. I don't feel I was notified properly about this ahead of time. It was a surprise to me that Dr. Chaya was not conducting the surgery on his own.

Dr. Chaya is a compassionate, caring physician who answered all my questions, explained the cataract surgical procedure thoroughly, and conducted the intricate surgical procedure which dramatically restored the deteriorated vision in my eye to 20/20. I'm beyond pleased with entire process and can hardly wait to have the other eye done.

2023-04-22

Dr. Chaya took more time to explain what was taking place in my eye following my eye surgery. Dr. Chaya is usually in a hurry to get to his next patient but this time he did not seem to be. He asked me more questions about my eye following surgery and the medications that he prescribed. I hope his activeness was not only because he had a visiting Dr. following with him.

Dr. Chaya is very confident in his abilities and decision making for the patients best interest. In the follow up care I would like to have a more detailed recap of the surgery and explain why he did or didnt finish/do the intervention that was pre planned. More fully explain what other Drs working with Dr. Chaya have done during the surgery.

He is a good doctor but I found out that he is not an ophthalmology, so I am not sure if I am receiving a good care about my eyes. Is really sad that the best clinic doesn't provide an ophthalmology to get the best care for me.

2023-01-30
REDWOOD HEALTH CENTER

Same as always Dr. Chaya is very nice and explains what he thinks is the best options for patients care but is still in a big hurry to move on to the next patient. Which I think takes away from getting the best experience. Stay a bit more calm and give your patient a few more seconds of your time by asking if they completely understand the information.

2023-01-28

Great doctor that I trust with my eyes.

2022-12-17
MORAN EYE CENTER

I specifically chose Dr. Chaya bcuz after doing research, I felt he would be the most knowledgeable with options and techniques used for glaucoma. I only have eyesight in 1 eye which happens to be my eye with glaucoma. With only 1 visit I am confident he will be able to prolong my vision and keep my glaucoma pressures under control. He was very informative, explained some of the options available and gave me a plan of action. My former ophthalmologist's seemed to be at a bit of a loss on what to do with me bcuz the operations weren't working as well as they were hoping and I was on 3-4 different eye drops to keep my eye pressures under 20. So I was very pleased with Dr Chaya.

2022-12-17
MORAN EYE CENTER

Dr. Chaya was and has always been very thorough in his care practice. It appeared to me that he was behind in getting to his patients in a timely manner. Dr. Chaya seemed very rushed to get to his next patient. He mentioned a laser eye treatment but didnt give me his time to explain the details. He wanted me to go to a few different websites and read about the procedure. For that I feel that Dr. Chaya feel short on the full and proper care of his patient.

I know the man is busy, but I always feel a little bit rushed when the provider visits. It's all routine to him but it's a totally new experience for me, so if he could take a couple of DEEP BREATHS before he enters, that'd make a huge difference.

Dr. Chaya was good but we have seen 3 glaucoma doctors now and he was supposed to be the "one" to answer all our questions but we felt the most rushed with him and like we were just another number to him. He explained things but it was like he talked to our primary glaucoma doctor and just said yep I'll validate that! He needs to take a step back slow down and really be present with his patients even if it's only a one time visit.
