Dr. Mira Lim, MD

I wish I could give her and her office a negative rating. We don’t think she is exceptional regarding her medical skills. Based on her working with us and the fact that she brushed us off with a fake lab test prescription, we don’t think one should trust her or her office with one's delicate eyes. My mom was referred to Dr. Mira Lim from UC Berkeley eye center this Monday (2019-11-04) because my mom’s eyes got red suddenly on Saturday (11-2) morning. We saw Dr. Mira Lim on Tuesday (11-5) early morning. We brought with us a detailed description of diagnosis by the kind doctors in Berkeley eye center. She spent about 10 minutes with us and wrote us a so-called “prescription” of lab test (see picture attached.) On Wednesday (11-6), we called her again to confirm if the prescription would work because the prescription just says “formal blood work/evaluation” and, from our past experiences, this seems vague. She confirmed to us that this will work. On Thursday (11-7)… early morning, we went to the LabCorp at Albany and was told that what we got from Dr. Mira Lim is not a lab order and the doctor has to specify which test result she would like to see than just some "formal blood work." So we called her Oakland office. We are told that Dr. Mira Lim was in a different office today, they had no way to let her know and got hanged off. The call only lasted 7 minutes. I will never know why would she prescribed us a “not working” lab test and confirmed that it would work even when we double-checked with her several times. But her behavior doesn’t seem to follow professional ethics. We were treated awfully during our limited interactions with her and her office. My mom's eyes are still red after 6 days and the office said it is not serious and let us wait ...... This is definitely the last thing you want to encounter as a weak patient with your vulnerable eyes at risk.

I waited more time than usual to see the doctors but I was in and out of there in no time at all. Both Dr. Chan and Dr. Lim are very nice professional doctors I would highly recommend them both

I had my cataract surgery performed by Dr. Mira Lim. The surgery went extremely well. Dr. Lim is very caring, thorough, and explains the entire procedure to me. I strongly recommend Dr. Lim to those who are looking for a good ophthalmologist.
