Koh Peter, OD

I have been a patient of Dr. Koh for a few years now and I can honestly say that if I could have him as my primary care physician as well I would! Dr. Koh is the best!
To the lady who gave him a bad review because he would not «lend» her a contact lens and is risking peoples lives by driving anyway, your ego is obviously bigger than your brain.

I’m required by law to wear contacts when I drive and I’m fairly blind and happened to lose a contact out of my eye while driving… I stopped in here and pleaded for the doctor to lend me one single contact and he refused to help me. I’m now forced to drive half blind and with practically no depth perception around Beverly hills where there are hundreds of pedestrians walking about. Thank you so much for all of your help, guy.

Courteous, professional, proficient and efficient. Great eye doc. Would recommend to all my friends and family without reservation.

Dr. Koh has a big heart, very kind, recognizes me always by name even if I can not recognize myself in the mirror :))i
He is very simple to talk to, and I feel like home every time when in his office, for more than 11 years…
I am not a big reviewer, but I have to share my latest experience;
I stopped by dr. Koh’ office, having some eye redness. I had no appointment, no referral from my PMD, and in addition, it was a lunch time… THe receptionist kindly told me that Dr. Koh is on lunch for an hour and that I can return later… At the same time, Dr. koh has been walking by inside the office, looked at me, than stepped outside the door, smiled, acknowledged me by name, looked at my eyes, told me that they are red, and sad that he will see me right away… I felt uncomfortable interrupting lunch, and he responded that it is very kind of me… I wanted to cry… HIS STAFF IS AMASING AS WELL!
He spent 15 min with me, but I will always remember his kindness–
rare to find in our busy live

I just had an eye exam and asked the doctor to measure my PD… He freakin pulled out a ruler too… The one I used in elementary school! Wth, if I’m paying $ 200 for health insurance I want the professional pd tool used on my my eyes. Not a freakin ruler. I can do that myself. I went somewhere else to get my pd read properly… And yes there is a difference.

Dr. Koh knows his stuff and has great bedside manner. I highly recommend him. He also is good with children.

Dr. Koh is personable, knowledgable and has been my doctor for well over a decade. He has helped me take care of my eyes from glasses to Lasik. I could not recommend a better eye doctor. The four stars are for Dr. Koh.
The lab, however, mixed experience erring on not so great.

Dr. Koh is a great doctor. I’ve been to him a few times and I have never been disappointed. He’s warm, friendly, and does an excellent job. His staff are also really kind and great. They strive to create a warm, welcoming environment for their clients.
I had to write this mostly to reply to Heather H’s nasty review. The reason that they bring people into the inside waiting area is because the outside waiting area is little more than a hallway — so it’s actually a good thing. For someone to complain about reading material in a doctors’ waiting area… seriously, get a life. Bring a book or look at your phone like everyone else. What do you expect, a libaray of all of the latest fashion magazines? And all of the «disproportionate number of old people»…really?! Are you serious?! How many old people would you (as center of the universe) consider to be «normal»? What a B you are…
The fact that someone as awful as Heather H. reviews this place poorly should be enough of an endorsment that Dr. Koh is the exact opposite type of person, and should therefore convince you to choose him as your doctor. You won’t be sorry. He’s great and his staff are wonderful.

I have been to the Beverly Hills Vision Center several times and frankly I’m still stunned by how underwhelming it is. I chose it because it is part of Cedars Sinai, which is obviously good, and so I figured the doctors would be good. The office itself, however, is surprisingly, well, ghetto (there’s a lot of deferred maintenance going on in there). There is a disproportionate number of old people there (not certain why the clientele is skewed so heavily this way) and the waits are always super long.
First you wait in the outside waiting room. Then they move you to the inside waiting room. Periodically, someone will call you to go have a vision test or you get to talk to your doctor for a second, but then they send you back to one of the waiting rooms about 3000 times. I know this sounds petty, but there isn’t even any decent reading material – which is ridiculous considering the amount of time you spend waiting.
I personally have seen Dr. Koh, and he actually is perfectly fine, so I feel bad saying negative stuff. He’s not the issue; the office is just a crazy trainwreck mess, and he seems to busy running from room to room with all the 349 other people booked at the same time as me, that I feel guilty for taking up his time.
Also, might I add, they somehow SCREWED UP MY GLASSES. I have been wearing glasses for 15 years. I went to them just to get my regular eye exam and then to have my lenses replaced. I had to wait a WEEK to pick up the glasses and then when I did the over-​busy glasses sales people just sent me out of there without even having me put them on/​adjusting them/​asking if they were ok. Of course, I got home and they were distinctly not okay. It was like I was wearing someone else’s lenses.
So, I just had to make ANOTHER appointment, spend another hour being shuffled around their waiting rooms, for them to figure out what they screwed up on my glasses (something about a curve, I have no idea) and now they’re being fixed – I hope. I don’t know if they’re going to charge me for this yet, but let’s just say that if they do I’m going to have a fit. I’ve had a ton of glasses made at a ton of different places with prescriptions from a ton of different doctors, and this is literally the first time I’ve had to go through any such sort of rigamarole. Thumbs down.
