While the doctor is absolutely amazing and knowledgeable, the staff is horrible. They continuously hang up on you on the phone and lack professionalism. While I would love to see the doctor, I am finding it impossible to schedule an appointment or communicate to her staff. Per the many reviews online, many other people agree. It is an absolute shame to find such a good doctor yet not be able to see her because her staff is incompetent.

In 2008 at Kaiser Dr. Ghiasi used Laser Treatment to clean up my right eye. After that it was better than ever before and I could read the tiny words on the windshield wiper of my car. I made a mistake of not following her when she left Kaiser for her current office in Irvine. So in 2015, after three failed attempts with trabeculectomy I tried to reach her again because of the threat of blindness from serious open angle glaucoma. After two years of trying I saw her again in April 2017. On May 10 2017 she did Gel Xen Stent on my left eye I and stopped using glaucoma drops on it. On September 13 she did Gel Xen Stent again on my right eye and I said good bye to the three glaucoma eye drops I had to use five times a day. To me Dr. Zahra Ghiasi is the brightest star in the glaucoma dark sky. God bless you, Dr. Ghiasi. Howard Dang

Dr Ghiasi is amazingly talented and has wonderful bedside manner. She understood the trauma that the threat of loosing ones eyesight can be. She took the time to explain the diagnosis, and the options avaiable. She answered all of my questions and really took exeptional care of my needs. The surgery was an amazing life experiance, I felt prepared and safe every step of the way. She is a gifted and experianced surgeon. I am so grateful for the new OUTLOOK and improved eyesight. I would recommend her without hesitation.
