Dr. Alan Y Chow, MD

Dr. Chow is the reason my son has depth-perception. Had I not visited him 10 years ago, I would not have understood that the brain locks in dual eye usage by 12 years. Fixing lazy eyes needs to start EARLY, and no one had ever told me that before. I would have kicked myself if I found out too late - but DR. CHOW! Oh and he helped me too - by correcting one of my prior surgeries from almost 50 years ago. Highly, highly, highly recommend.

Awesome care. Dr. Chow Really care about each patient and I trust him completely! He is so knowledgeable and educates the patient about their conditions.

Dr. Chow was one of the best eye doctors I have ever had. He completely fixed my eyes as to my other eye doctors over the years did not. great bedside manner, very smart definitely knew what he was talking about. I would recommend him to anyone that has eye troubles. Thank you so much Dr. Chow I can't thank you enough! -Samantha G

When "the ayes have it," my eyes were not coordinated. You could say the skills of Dr. Chow helped me get straightened out. I was having a confusing time trying to interpret two versions of reality through crossed eyes. After the operation, I see a single version of reality. The result has given me one less problem when observing the world. Alan Y. Chow, MD is Dr. Measurement when it comes to preparation. He is methodical and scientific. This extra effort is to get things as right as possible. That is his intention as a gifted professional. Patient: Bruce William "Bill" Sweet

There are those who are doctors and then there are those the doctors consult with. Clearly they consult with Dr Chow. There is no one better. After multiple years of receiving inaccurate prescriptions and still having some issues, Dr Chow took the time to provide me with a thorough and complete examination. When other tests were needed, he worked to insure that costs were kept incredibly reasonable. Most importantly, he diagnosed me correctly and provided me with the right prescription. Dont waste time and money with other doctors if you have any concerns about your eye sight. Go see Dr Chow.

Dr. Chow is an outstanding ophthalmologist! He is extremely thorough and committed. Our family has faced some challenging issues, and Dr. Chow has pursued every potential explanation. While we don’t have a definitive diagnosis for our daughter’s progressive visual field deficits, Dr. Chow is monitoring her closely, exploring potential causes and the appropriate course of action moving forward. Both he and Heather have made themselves accessible for consultation with other physicians, as well as keeping us abreast in our continuous quest. We couldn’t ask for a better team, and are extremely grateful to have them in our court.

Dr. Alan Chow was wonderful! We highly recommend Dr. Chow! His secretary, Heather, is also wonderful! She made the surgery scheduling process with insurance so easy! Our son had bilateral blocked tear ducts and needed surgery. Surgery was a success! We felt confident in his care with his experience and knowledge. He truly cares about his patients.

After a failed surgery in childhood, I had lost hope in correcting my strabismus until I met Dr. Chow. He was very thorough in examining my eyes, explained my condition in great detail, and walked me through the risks and benefits of surgery. Dr. Chow performed the surgery two weeks ago and I could not be more pleased! The results are excellent so far and the recovery has been very smooth. Dr Chow is an extremely talented, knowledgeable, and caring professional. His assistant, Heather, has been very helpful as well. I am so glad that I found Dr. Chow and would highly recommend him!

Dr. Chow did strabismus surgery on me recently. It was my 4th surgery & I had lost hope that my eyes would ever be fixed, due to errors made by unqualified doctors. My case was considered very complicated & a number of other doctors wouldn't even operate on me. Following my surgery with Dr. Chow, my eyes are nearly perfect. His receptionist, Heather, is wonderful, as well. She is kind, knowledgable & answers any questions you may have without feeling like a bother. THANK YOU x 10000000 to Dr. Chow for his incredible work.

Dr. Chow had been watching my strabismus for several years. The double vision started to hinder my driving and golf game. I finally agreed to surgery. Dr. Chow did an excellent job and I had a quick recovery. I am glad to have my vision back again. I wish I would have done it sooner.

My son had been a patient of Dr. Chow for several years and he diagnosed his strabismus and has performed 2 surgeries on his eyes. Dr Chow takes is time to explain in grate detail what his findings are and how to proceed. I have complete trust in Dr. Chow and would not go to any other Opthalmologist. I drive well over an hour to see him! Thanks to Dr. Chow and Heather for all they do!

Dr. Chow did my left-eye strabismus surgery ~24 years ago; that was desperately needed, and a total success. Since then, my right eye gradually drifted up & out - so gradual that only last month did I finally say 'enough' to the double-vision frustration, and pull the rip cord to submit again to the knife. Shouldn't have waited so long; he really nailed the re-alignment. Very efficient process, back to work the next day. Dr. Chow is a truly dedicated & excellent professional.

When our sweet baby boy was just a few months old our PCP referred us to a specialist for crossed eyes. We sought out Dr Chow as he came to us recommend by a friend. Dr Chow described the crossed eyes as, "moderately severe", and we were told he would need surgery. We had to do patching for a few months to strengthen the eyes equally (otherwise he'd loose vision in one eye). So at 10 months old we drove to the hospital and Dr Chow surgically corrected both of his eyes. The change was immediate and has been lasting. There is no visible scarring and we continue to follow up routinely (sweet boy is 2.5 now). He talked us through a post op infection, gave us his cell phone number, and has never made us feel insecure with the game plan for our treatment. Dr Chow has always been up front and great at explaining our sons condition and the potential risk of needing another surgery in the future. If that happens we'll be confident in having Dr Chow care for our boy, even if the moo cow is a bit creepy! Haha, just kidding. I know this is long and detailed, but as a mom and nurse, knowing and understanding who we trust our children's care with is priceless.

Have been a patient of Dr. Chow for well over 25 years. Not only do I admire and appreciate his medical expertise and professionalism but also note he deeply cares about his patients. Very happy to be his patient for all of these years.

My husband went to Dr. Chow for many years. Having read most of the reviews I agree 100 percent that he is a very intelligent, competent, caring, knowledgeable doctor. He takes time to listen and explain things thoroughly. Only wish I could be his patient.

He was awful. Was unable to concentrate. Sweating a lot.

The doc is fantastic. Knows his stuff and my son always walks around asking me to "look at moo cow"

Perfect Doc for children, nice and funny makes visits enjoyable, easy, and informational. He has made a huge difference in my daughters vision and can only praise him for his work. Thank you so much

Dr. Chow corrected my strabismus. My eyes were so poorly aligned that multiple prisms were needed in my lenses prior to surgery. The prisms lessened both my horizontal and vertical double vision, but improvements after surgery were remarkable. The surgery was 8 years ago and the results continue to be excellent!

He is a Great Doctor
