Dr Chod is in a rush. I asked to see my results, he quickly changed the screen and then stated,”You’re all good”. No explanation and I was not presented the picture. Quickly he went into asking me to put my head back to proceed Show morewith drops. And that was it! Drops, drops and more drops than the shot. “Okay that’s it. You okay?” So and so. (Don’t know his name). “Will show you out for an appointment in 12 weeks”. And that was it. Other than his opening and closing handshake I felt no empathy or connection.

Dr Chod is efficient, professional and personable. But, the Arvada office is overbooked and it took an hour and 45 minutes to complete the follow up exam.

Jose A F. • September 29, 2026

Very efficient in the front office area and the appointment with DR Chod went well Very informative and helpful. (Only thing I don't like is dilated eyes) but that's a personal icky for me nothing to do with anything negative about the practice. Thank you to the staff who were all great

Bernice R. • September 29, 2026

Dr. Chod was very thorough in reviewing my symptoms and the images his team made. He also did his own detailed examination of my eyes and recommended further medical tests to rule out possible health risks. He was efficient with my time without making things feel rushed.

Andrew A. • September 29, 2026

Dr. Chow is an excellent doctor. The staff is very caring and explain situations so reduces worry.

Linda L M. • September 25, 2026

I receive shots in both eyes for Macular Degeneration (wet and dry). The shots delivered by Dr. Chod are almost always painless. They do work and seem to be slowing the process of losing sight in both eyes.
