Karen Oxford has been my eye doctor since I arrived in San Francisco. I found her, in an emergency, when one of my contacts caused a pretty severe eye infection. Although I was a brand new patient, she made time for me on a Friday morning, and then kept in touch with me all weekend as I followed her instructions and applied eye drops every few hours. Since then I have gone to her for my annual eye appointment and have never regretted it. She's smart, funny, and takes the time to explain to me what is going on with my eyes, and even how to figure out my insurance. I strongly recommend her.
Dr. Oxford is out of this world! I have been going to her for my annual eye exams and she discovered I had an eye cataract. I had spent a lot of time trekking in the Sahara Desert and was exposed to a lot of ultra violet light.<br>The massive exposure to ultra violet let eventually led me to a cataract surgery this past Tuesday, September 6, 2011. The survey could not have been easier. Dr. Oxford was simply a marvelous surgeon. She explained everything in detail before the operation. She is thorough, professional, caring and has a sense of humor. During the operation she kept me awake since according to the anesthesiologist she likes to be able to communicate with the patient during the whole time. The operation was a total success! I now see a clearer and brighter world. A thousand thanks to Dr. Oxford!!!
Dr. So practices at one of the busiest places I've ever been to, however, he does take his time with you. Due to a family history of eye problems I visit Dr. So and he makes sure my skull doesn't crush my eye balls. Awesome! Not sure if prescribes the devil's lettuce if that's what you are looking for.
While this is a large ophthalmology office, the infrastructure is run relatively well, though I agree with other reviewers that the front office staff leave a lot to be desired in terms of customer service and relations. One does feel like a widget on an assembly line. The "mill" does, however, work to some extent to ferry patients in and out within an efficient system. Having said that, however, having Karen Oxford as an eye doctor is worth the "mill" experience. She is friendly, humble, respectful and knowledgeable. She does not make the patient feel that she is in a rush to the next patient. After being unhappy with several eye doctors in my life, I am very happy to have found Dr. Oxford.
