I welcome you to our website, and hopefully, at some point, to our office located in Encino, California. The purpose of this website is to give potential patients some basic information about my office and myself, David Paikal, MD. My practice specializes in comprehensive ophthalmology, where I favor conservative approaches, striving to be true to the bioethical tenet of “first do no harm.”
My staff and I will do everything possible to take the best care of you. The reason we can do so is because we love what we do: helping people to see better. Sometimes, that means admitting that we don’t have all the answers and referring you elsewhere. No one physician knows it all, and my staff and I are fortunate to have strong relationships with various sub-specialists, including academicians at universities, should the need arise.
In the great city of Los Angeles, we are blessed to have many world-class ophthalmologists, and therefore, your eyes will more than likely be in the best of hands with the majority of eye-care providers. Ultimately, your decision as a patient on whom to choose will really rest on who you feel most comfortable with, and where you can achieve the kind of patient-doctor relationship you are looking for.
My educational background is attached for those of you who are interested. I wish you health and happiness.
Sincerely,
David Paikal, M.D. Diplomate American Board of Ophthalmology Assistant Clinical Professor, UCLA Stein Eye Institute

QUESTION AND ANSWER WITH DR. BART
How did you decide on a career in medicine?
I decided to become an ophthalmologist when I was a junior in high school. Getting my first pair of eyeglasses had a surprisingly profound effect on my life. Clear vision gave me a new — found confidence and sense of well-being. In my case, proper vision meant more than just seeing things clearer; its effect was energizing and transformative. I have always wanted the same experience for each my patients. Excellent vision can offer a new lease on life.
At Stanford University, I studied human biology, with a concentration on vision and perception. I was fascinated by the human visual system. The more I learned about ophthalmology, the more I realized how well-suited I was for this specialty. Ophthalmology requires precision and attention to detail. Complex analytical thought is a necessity. Eye surgery calls for very fine dexterity as well as an aptitude for 3D mechanics.Fortunately, these characteristics came to me naturally. No one from my childhood was surprised when I became an ophthalmologist.(!)
What do you find fulfilling about your work?
I love practicing medicine — the fascinating complexity of the human body and the continual innovations of modern medicine.But the most fulfilling aspect of my work is seeing my patients living healthier, more productive, and happier lives. I enjoy helping others see clearly, treating disease and eliminating pain. It may be an elaborate exam for an eyeglass prescription employing refined techniques many doctors don’t use. It may be performing a procedure or giving medication that stops a disease process and restores good health. Seeing both their improved vision and their resultant joy is satisfying.
Tell us about the culture and values of your practice.
Our practice is patient-centered. We work as a team to ensure that the most advanced medicine is combined with the best experience in our office. We want each patient to feel comfortable, informed, and happy with the care we provide.
What makes your practice different from others’?
My patients tell me I am more communicative than other doctors they have seen. I welcome questions and give thorough explanations. I invite patient participation in forming treatment plans. I get to know my patients. My patients choose me because I care.
