Armin Afshar

They put me at ease and hoped me understa d diagnosis and how they reached the conusion

Dr. Armin Afshar is an excellent Doctor who cares listens and follows through very thoroughly with patience and understanding.

Great visit!

Again once I was able to get through and make an appointment and arrive at the facility--all good!

Dr Afshar is EXCELLENT!! Thank you for having such a qualified physician!!

You need to figure out a way to clone Dr. Afshar.

Excellent care received

Time management is my only complaint. The actual care has been very good. But what were the eye drops for?

One thing that concerned me was our conversation about a discrepancy I noticed on the previous after-visit summary. In that summary he said that I received an injection of Avastin. But just prior to administering the injection he said that he was switching from Avastin (which I received In my first Injection which was at Kaiser) to Eylea because he felt it was a better choice. When I brought up this discrepancy in our most recent visit he said that it he wrote Avastin in the summary then it must have been Avastin. I frankly do not see how he could have told me at the time that he was injecting Eylea but injected Avastin instead. It strains credulity.

Dr Afshar seems competent. My eye cancer surgery was successful. But I've had a long wait with every appt. Frustrating. I heard others also complaining.

Not only did he explain everything to me but he also on my request referred me to a primary with UCSF.Many thanks.

Great staff.

Dr. Afshar is probably the best doctor I have ever seen. He is brilliant and genuine and has amazing bedside manner. Can't say enough of how great he is as a doctor and a person.

Excellent assessment and care.

No treatment or care needed at this time

Dr Afshar is just excellent. Super communication first-rate care and one of the best communicators I've come across for my somewhat complicated medical profile.I couldn't ask for better and I attribute my vision today to his help.

Dr. Afshar is EXCELLENT!! My husband and I were very confident in his skill knowledge experience and decisions made. So grateful to be in his care!!!

Happy to refer other people but the wait times to get in are pretty dreadful.

I was referred to this provider for follow up care as my first provider left the area. Hence not the same connection as he did not do the original procedure

Dr. Afshar is wonderful! Excellent communication caring listens. I wish he could be my primary care provider.

I live over 3 hours from SF. Should NEVER be left in an waiting room for over 1 hour without ANYONE checking on me or any updates.

Dr. Afshar was terrific.

Solid.

Dr Afshar's knowledge professionalism and flexibility to work with his patients to make sure they are receiving the best care is top notch. Despite being incredibly busy I have never left without all my questions being answered. I am so very thankful to be in his great care.

Dr afshar is an exceptional example of a very skilled physician being able to communicate with his patient and arrive at the best treatment plan. He's a model for others to emulate

Excellent doctor!!!!

Impersonal. Not much to share. Pleasant enough.

Dr. Afshar is a pro too!

Dr. Afshar is an amazing doctor in all these aspects.

Dr. Afshar is seemingly competent. He provides minimal information which leaves me unsure about my status. Did not address my concerns regarding both eyes not synchronized.

The competence my care provider and his ability to take time and explain to me put me at ease and gave me confidence

My whole experience with UCSF has been excellent

Dr. Afshar is an exceptional and outstanding provider. We would recommend him highly and without reservation.

Very good

Dr. Afshar has been the most compassionate doctor in all my associations with the medical community. He is responsive sensitive compassionate. A true "mensch".

I went in convened for my vision I came out relieved and with the appropriate therapy. Dr Afshar has always guided me well. What more can I ask for?

The staff everyone within UCSF that assisted me were terrific as always!!! They take everything seriously and have always and continue to make me feel safe secure and that I am looked after in the best! I always felt safe and have had the greatest amount of trust to each & every member within the UCSF team that has in the past and present taken care of me when I am within the building within UCSF and when I am out back home and about! Never any issues and my trust & faith to the UCSF staff & team has always been exceptional and I know my eye's health is taken with the upmost care and every decision taken made and done by the people I am with through all the different tests is done safely carefully and done to help in either improving my eye's health or in helping keep my eye's health strong and not allowing it to worsen!Thank you Dr. Afshar his exceptional team and everyone that has ever worked with me directly indirectly and in any & every form in helping with my eye and drastically improving my eye's sight health etc these past 6 years!! Without all of your help support encouragement and never-ending work in improving the health of my left eye I wouldn't be here with an eye that I can use because prior to my first time coming to UCSF and Dr. Afshar and all of his team's amazing work I would have had an eye that had such terrible health & vision (20-200 vision at one point from what Dr. Afshar told me once) that eventually could have become essentially blind. Thank you all!!!!

Fantastic physician. Kind caring and extremely knowledgeable

He's an awesome doctor We just love him but he has a hard time understanding it's so hard to go to SF financially and emotionally. I believe he tries though

Dr. Afshar was great. He answered my many questions with patience and thoughtfulness. He was informative about pros and cons and possible side effects and helped me make the decision to persue treatment.

Dr. Afshar spent time to discuss all of my concerns and offer options. I never felt pressured to choose one form of treatment over another. It allowed me to make decisions based on my needs and personal situation.

Always open for additional questions and concerns

The were wonderful

Most exceptional dialogue with Dr Afshar about my care and treatment- both succinct but informative. Dr Afshar showed the type of judgment and report that doctors today can model

My care provider takes time explaining the result of my tests he also take time sending email to my optalmogist in oakland. He also recommends seeing a doctor expert in eye pressure.

Would only recommend care provider to certain people due to the distance/location of the medical offices.

Never saw the Dr Never got the results of eye photos and tests

Dr. Afshar is a very compassionate man. I would recommend anyone with eye issues to him. He sets a feeling of confidence and calm in me each time I visit his office.

All providers were courteous and made me feel at ease.

I forgot my hearing aids so missed a lot of what all the people I interacted with said.

I was allowed to ask questions and if was very informative. The concern was evident.

Good experience

A smile goes a long ways from check in to assistant care to provider. Provider builds trust with his kind care. Thanks

Good information

Very friendly

Staff is outstanding and Dr Afshar is the best- a great doctor!

Dr Afshar took the time to review the imaging and discuss the options and logic behind his treatment course. Wow- what a high level of interaction with a patient

Dr. Afshar is very informed in my case and explains everything to me.

I was put. In a room for two hours tried to leave twice. I eventually saw my doctor for 5 minutes because I had a child care issue after 2 and a half hours because I had not seen the doctor.

Dr Afshar rocks!

Everyone treated me like I was special

Dr Afshar is always excellent and reassuring

Dr.Afshar was so helpful in giving us the right interval of our follow-up appointment to him. My mother likes him so much.

Was told see you in 6months and appointment is with another Dr. Was not told that when left Dr.that didn't go well with me.

Dr. Afshar is amazing. He always takes the time to listen and actually hears what you're saying. His explanations are clear. He always makes you feel like he's invested in your healthcare. A truly caring individual. 10+!

No explanation was given for the delay nor did anyone check on me during the last half hour

Dr showed and explained the test resultslistened very carefully to my questions and asked twice if I had any more questions.He was very conciseconcerned and efficient explaining treatment and follow up. I don't think my experience could have been better.Many thanks

Dr. Afshar outstanding provider. I feel fortunate to have had him as my surgeon.

Amazing Health Provider.

He was excellent in all regards. I am grateful for his care.

Dr. Afshar continues to provide us with remarkable care.

Good

Everyone was very helpful and courteous. I was a fit in patient due to the cancer just recently being found. Surgery was scheduled very quickly and coordination with the radiation oncology department done swiftly. All very accommodating!

Dr. Afshar is a pro and trust his care.

Great

Excellent Doctor

Really appreciated the follow up emails as my hearing is impaired and with masks was sometimes hard to hear.

Again most short comings I believe were on me and my emotional state at the time with my memory
