I felt welcome the minute I walked in, and it continued throughout my whole appointment. Dr Monji and his staff were very thorough in the many tests they gave me, that covered the full realm of what I needed as a senior. You could tell what a great customer service company they created, and that they really worked as a very knowledgeable and happy team. I look forward to having them on my team for many years!

This office is great. The staff is lovely and squeezed in an appointment for me when I had an issue. The doctors are all fantastic - they take time to really examine your eyes, answer questions, and explain anything that is important.

My very first visit went well! Everyone was very nice and friendly. They make you feel safe with their covid protocols. Dr. Al-Hassan was very knowledgeable and didnt make me feel rushed. She made sure all of my questions were answered and then some. The location was very convenient. Close to parking structure.

Ive been going here since 1996 and I cannot give Monji Optometry a higher recommendation. Dr. Judy Monji is incredibly professional and great at her job. She always patiently answers my questions and makes me feel at ease. Kathie up front AKA K-Rose is fantastic as well and always welcoming and fun! The rest of the Squad has mad skills as well! I give them all 15 out of 10 stars!P.S. I also must shout out Dr. Katherine Takaki who is now enjoying the good life having Pina Coladas on the beaches of Orange County!

Dr. Monji is an excellent Optometrist, and just an all around great person. He really cares about his patients and it shows in his friendly, caring, demeanor - every time I am there.Everyone at the office is wonderful. They really, really, know their stuff, and they are always super friendly and super helpful! I always take way more time than I should when picking out new frames and everyone is always so patient and helpful. I never feel rushed, even when I am the last appointment of the day.I would not go anywhere else, this place is totally awesome. It has the best Optometrists and the most fantastic staff!!

Terrific customer service (both on the phone and in person). All covid precautions taken that made us feel comfortable and safe. Staff is attentive and professional. Dr. Monji, besides being an excellent optometrist, has great interpersonal skills with his patients, but I especially appreciate his detail for attention with my kids.

We love Dr. Judy! We have been seeing her for many years for our annual eye exams and glasses. She has a calm and patient manner. She is very caring about her patients and treats you as if you are her only patient. The office/ billing people are also very friendly and are pleasant to deal with. I highly recommend Dr. Judy at Monji Optometry in Burbank, California.

Ive been going here for 15 years. Love these guys! Professional, fun, friendly. Last visit 6-2-20. My first real exposure to people I know outside of my family bubble since this nightmare started. I had a great time and got some cool glasses! And in the past they got me in right away when I had what turned out to be a detached retina and set me up with surgery the same day. Also recommended Dr. Berg to fix my cataracts and implant some lenses. Bottom line I see better than I did 15 years ago thanks to Dr. Monji and Kathy and the rest of the team. You cant do better. Make an appointment!

Having been with him more than a decade and he never disappointed me. The best optometrist in the vicinity of Burbank. I have tried other facilities in and out of the town, some which was necessity due to my business relocation, but always never get as same as Monjis professional opinion and courtesy by their staffs. They are the best.

I have been a patient at Monji Optometry for over a decade. Probably two decades. The care, attention to detail, good humor and absolute mandate to listen to all patient concerns is phenomenal. Even when insurance carriers changed, they went out of their way to make sure I had everything I needed. If Monji is not on a plan, that’s a plan I will not be using! Highly recommended.

Review №45

My friend referred me to Dr. Monji saying that he had an easy calm about him that is reassuring. We found that to be true for our daughters first visit a year ago. It is clear he is very knowledgable and explains things very clearly. We had anxiety before our most recent visit because of the Covid-19 issues, but once again, the team at Monji set us at ease. It is clear they are taking the virus seriously and are taking significant steps to provide a safe environment. I cannot recommend Monji Optometry highly enough!

Dr. Noor Al-Hassan was great to work with she was super thoughtful, detailed and professional. She answered all my questions and provided great feedback! She was super kind and just easy to talk to. The rest of the office staff was super friendly and very helpful with getting me set up and helping me pick out glasses. I definitely recommend Monji Optometry!

Review №51

Good service and good selection of glasses. Only thing preventing a 5 star rating is the relatively long wait for your glasses to arrive once ordered. Perhaps COVID is slowing things down a bit now.

Dr. Monji is the best, most honest eye doctor I have ever been to! I have been going to him for over 10 years, and I have recommended him to all my friends, whether they have their own optometrist or not. Hes patient, kind, and very personable. If I dont need a new prescription he wont lie to me and tell me I do just so he can make more money off of me (Im talking to you, my old eye doctor from 12 years ago!) His staff is excellent as well, very friendly and easy to deal with. Love their professionalism. They have a great selection of glasses and colored contacts. The office is clean and theres usually never a long wait to see him, though I know he is very popular.I highly recommend him to anyone and everyone! I cant sing his praises enough!

Review №55

LOVE Monji optometry. Ive been going to this office for 40 years and have seen three different doctors over those 40 years. Office staff is top notch; LOVE the gals up front. Honestly, they are friends and I always enjoy my visits. My optical needs are always met and I come away happy and satisfied (which I cannot say about leaving other medical offices). Great eyeglass selection and I just switched to the most comfortable contact lenses Ive ever worn (I have dry eyes so this is a major find). Love Monji optometry, you will too! P.S. the contacts that are the bomb (Acuvue Oasys just didnt do it for me) are Precision 1 dailies by Alcon!!!! Oh my gosh, try them. Pure comfort like no other contact lens (for me anyway).

My entire family has been going to Dr Judy for more than 10 years. She is a very knowledgeable optometrist that can work well with all types of people. She makes great suggestions to help with all types of vision problems. When it is time to pick out your frames the staff is helpful and patient to allow as much time as necessary to make that difficult of which frame looks best! Overall, I would highly recommend Dr. Judy and the staff at Monji Optometry.

Monji Optometry was great! The doctor and staff are very knowledgeable and friendly. I loved how they could tell me exactly what my insurance covers. The eyeglass and sunglass selection is diverse with several hip and cute frames. Both pairs of glasses were ready quickly and fit well. I recommend Monji Optometry to anyone seeking new specs!

I was recommended to Monji by a co-worker and was very satisfied with the type of services they provide. Dr. Hovakemian was very thorough with my examination, taking her time to answer my questions with clear explanations. Dr. Hovakemian performed test that prior to this visit were never performed at Costco Optometry department where I used to go. Monji Optometry was even able to bill my insurance company directly vs having to be reimbursed by my employer. I will definitely come back for all Optometry needs.

Thank you Monji Optometry for being a great place for eye care! I learned so much of what’s needed to keep my vision healthy as I continue to make orbits around the sun. Dr. Monji is so knowledgeable and professional yet very friendly and upbeat that I was at ease the whole time during my consultation with him. The women who maintain the front office are so nice yet professional, they are a real blessing.And through my VSP Membership my cost was so low and affordable, I was able to get the next generation of my favorite Ray Ban frames, thank you Kathy. I have done COSTCO and God Bless the Veterans Administration, but this is THE place for complete vision care and as long as I can I will only come here. Again,thank you everyone at Monji Optometry!

My family has been going to Monji Optometry for over 20 years. They provide great continuing care for the health of our vision because they schedule our annual checkups; and I am so thankful they send those ‘reminder cards’ and bday cards in the mail cause the year goes by quickly! The older I get, the worse my eyesight gets, so it’s so relieving to go to a great optometrist, who I trust, to help me and my family with our eye glass prescriptions. I love the eyeglass selections too and want to go back to pick another pair! Also the front desk staff are wonderful and always make my young son feel special and taken care of. Great place and always a positive experience.

Review №68

My wife and I have been seeing Dr. Monji for so many years I cant even remember how we found him! And, we have recommended him to several other friends who are equally pleased. In my particular case, I have had eye issues that have required me to see two different ophthalmologists and both have communicated with Dr. Monji about my eyes. In both cases, these specialized doctors mentioned to me how impressed they were with Dr. Monjis knowledge of my eye issues and about his general expertise and knowledge that exceeds that of most optometrists. Needless to say, we hope Dr. Monji never retires!

I have been going to Dr. Monjis office for years and have had the pleasure of being seen by both Dr. Monji and his wife. They are the nicest, most professional, competent and genuinely caring optometrists I have ever experienced. The entire professional staff are the most helpful and amazing people! I dont know how Dr. Monji consistently staffs his office with such nice and efficient people. Their selection of frames offers something for everyone with with different tastes and budget. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Monji to everyone and take my elderly mother and young children there if they ever needed an optometrist.

I was part of the practice that Drs Monji & Saldana bought back in 1991 I became Dr Monjis patient upon the retirement of Dr Saldana/Takaki in 2015 I have frequent astigmatism changes and routinely see Dr Monji every 6 months. I have referred others to this office and if you need a good eye doctor and wonderful staff this is certainly the place for you (Not to mention that they are only a short block from the Burbank public parking). If I did not feel they have my best vision care at heart I certainly wouldnt stay with them all these years. Give them a chance if you are looking for a good vision practice
