Dr Stephen K Ching

Dr. Ching is experienced and knowledgeable, my older son had CRT treatment with him, I’m perfectionism, he is the only one made me satisfied and my boys love him too, they asked me to schedule more appointments with him, LOL!
I would highly recommend him to my friends, but I don’t feel comfortable with those people he hired, the lady who helped with eye exam, doesn’t seem patient and I don’t believe she has lience/​certificate to perform the eye exam and fitting.

It’s been two months at least since I lost my prescription glasses. I’ve been using store bought reading glasses. I found Dr Chin through our insurance provider and he is less than a 5 minute drive from home. I did a complete check up except for the dilation because I had errands to run.
Dr chin was very friendly very professional and personable. After the exam he turned me over to Vlad who helps pick out frames and finished up with payments.
I picked out frames that were a lil more stylish than my old ones. I guess I was feeling a bit «hip» this morning for an 8:30am appointment after riding back from Oakland last night and only getting a few hours of sleep :)
Overall I’m very satisfied and would recommend for anyone looking for an optometrist.

I thought I lost a contact lens in my eye. Dr Ching squeezed me in right away and was able to see me promptly.
To look for the lens, he had to do something to my eye that was uncomfortable and he was very patient with me.

Dr. Ching and Dr. Kam are great. They are very friendly and knowledgeable and both give reliable eye exams.
My complaint is with the man who fits your glasses when you pick them up. I have seen him 5 times for 2 separate pairs of glasses, and he can never fit them correctly! He just stares at me when I put them on and doesn’t offer any suggestions about how to adjust them. I have been wearing glasses for 25 years and have never had someone fit glasses so poorly. As much as I like the doctors, I am sorry to say that I will have to find a new optometry office because a great eye exam can only get you so far when your glasses don’t fit.

This review was originally posted under EYE ZONE OPTOMETRY. As they and Dr Stephen Ching are one and the same I wanted to post it here as well!
My experience at this place was great! I am not going to lie I didn’t have high hopes going into my appointment! I have VSP and was looking for a VSP provider that was close to my house! Doctor Lori D Kam And Stephen K Ching came up in the results and they were the only ones that had a good review on Unilocal!So I decided to give them a chance and called to schedule my eye exam! They were able to fit me in the following week. They are open until 7:30pm on Tuesdays as well at one Saturday a month which is nice so that I don’t have to miss work for an appointment!
When you arrive to the location you don’t think it looks like much from the outside, but once you go in it is very cute and clean! As I walked in I was greeted and instructed to fill out some new patient paperwork. After that I went back and had my eye exam with Dr. Stephen Ching. He was so nice and personable! I have never had a doctor be so friendly and get to know me so well in such a short amount of time; especially on my first visit! I also got to know a lot about him and his family! He is a great guy! I didn’t feel rushed at all and he really took the time to find out about my vision needs and any concerns I had!
After my exam I decided to go ahead and order new glasses! Now I loathe picking out new glasses! Judy was the one that helped me find the perfect match! She spent over an hour helping me find something that made me happy! I felt bad because I must have tried on easily 30 different pairs. But kudos to Judy for not making me feel like I was being a pain! As I continued to try on different pairs of classes I had finally narrowed it down to two pairs and I couldn’t decide! Two of the other staff were so nice and took the time to offer their opinion on which one they thought looked best on me! It felt really genuine in there, not like they were just trying to sell me some glasses. They didn’t push any products on me or try to get me to pay for something outside of my comfort zone which was nice!
Also Judy also was able to educate me about the VSP Premier Vision Plan Benefits! Thankfully I didn’t miss open enrollment at my work and I was able to sign up for 2014! Because I was able to sign up for the Premier Vision Plan I plan to go back in January 2014 and get that second pair of glasses that I had wanted for free!!! Thanks Judy! :)
So if you are looking for a new eye doctor or just a better more personal experience this is the place to go!

Dr. Ching is a very good optometrists. I have been going to him for over 5 years and I highly recommend his office. His receptionists are extremely nice and he has another employee help out when choosing glasses. Dr. Ching and his wife are very friendly, they have 2 offices and work with you as far getting you in as fast as possible. He also checked my daughters eyes when she as 3. He was extremely friendly to her and she was not scared of him or his equipment at all. He has unbelievable computer software to show you visually about your eye and breaks down what he sees. He simplifies his work and his explanations to you so that you know what he’s talking about. I knew nothing about contacts and the optometrists at Kaiser just told me what I needed and pushed me out the door. Dr. Ching explained my stigmatism and went over every type of contact lens and why I needed a certain type of contact.
He has been serving Rancho Cordova for a long time and they really know their stuff. Him and his wife are Cal Berkeley grads and they provide the greatest customer service for their patients. I highly recommend this optometrists!
