Reviews
Very caring,knowledgeable and approachable. Someone in whom I feel I can trust to care for vision conditions.
The doctor was attentive and smart. The stuff was polite and conceded.
All of my concerns were addressed with professionalism, everything went very smoothly with my cataract surgery. Highly recommend!!
I have very good experience with Dr. David Gilbert and his Team: always patient oriented, professional, patiently answering all questions and concerns. Thank you very much!!!
Dr. Gilbert turned on the lights for me as a result of performing cataract operations on both eyes. He took his time with me, was very caring, answered all my questions and got me through all my fears, (which turned out to be unfounded. ) It is a process but not like what I as anticipating from surgery. The operations were efficient and relatively quick. The staff is supportive and very nice. I have not seen bright colors, and had this high degree of vision clarity in years! My advice is if your doctor advises you need cataract surgery do not hesitate, and just do it! The results are certainly worth it!
The doctor and the entire staff were great
All options available were thoroughly discussed. My experience during surgery was much less stressful than I had expected. The staff both in surgery and in office visits were professional and pleasant.
Diablo Eye has been a blessing to find. They are kind, efficient and knowledgeable no matter what your question. Dr Gilbert has always been top notch and I feel so lucky to be in his care for my eye needs. After having gone thru two doctors in my area (Hercules) that literally made me stress out I am so comfortable with Dr Gilbert.
Great team
Very competent and thorough examinations
He's the best
I've been going to Diablo Eye Clinic for over 15 years and believe them to be some of the very best!
Very conscientious and thorough in analysis of patients. Very professional ophthalmologist. You can’t find a better practice in Contra Costa County.

Very professional and excellent service.
Dr Gilbert answered all of my questions about cataract surgery, he was professional, knowledgeable and reduced my anxiety. I would highly recommend him for any eye surgery or care.
FYI Doctor and staff great. But every time I have to wait 30 to 40 minutes before I am taken back to get started. This has been going on for years.
Excellent follow/up appointment. Short wait time. Immediately feed-back with a new visit scheduled.
Very professional.
Dr. Lomelino, is absolutely the best and I have always appreciated her professionalism, knowledge and recommendations. Her compassionate personality, thorough exam and diagnostics, reassures me, I have truly received the best care. Dr. Lomelino and Dr. Gilbert, are without question, the reason I continue to receive my treatment, at Diablo Eye Associates.
Dr. Lomelino is a professional who shows care for her patients and explains each step as she is examining. I will certainly miss her. Best of luck Dr. Michele Lomelino
