I’ve been going to Shepard Eye Center for many years. Thanks to Dr. Bylsma, and the eye drops he prescribed, my glaucoma is under control.
Had a great and productive Medical experience at this office. Everyone is very profesional and supportive.

Well I just got my eye surgery on Friday and I got told they were gonna fax my eye drop medication to the pharmacy and they didn’t so now I have to wait until Monday hopefully I don’t get eye infection for doing a unfinish job thanks guys for having a nice unfinish job
Attempted to contact my f o rent retinol o gist, Dr. Adweek, at his new p practice location. No response from Maria Zarate or Dr. Sedeek. Bodes poorly for new patients. Not recommended.
My mom and brother went to the appointment and left very happy on how well they were treated and how efficient the staff was to help them. I appreciate their work .
Receptionist came off a bit rude, other than that it was a great visit! Everyone else kept it super professional.
Everyone was very pleasant, helpful and happy. Made me feel very comfortable.
My experience is always great at Sheppard Eye! Always quality service from everyone from the front desk and the Assistants, to the Optometrist and eyeglass sales.
Do not see doctor zarnegar!! He botched my eyes. Did a Careless job. Cut my eye and my nose during surgery, and left me with a droopy eye that I now need to have surgery to fix! They offered to redo the surgery .. No way .. I asked them to …
The visit was awesome as usual. They are all so knowledgible and experienced. A true credit to Santa Maria. Answered all my questions I had about cataracts and eased my mind. Am actually looking forward to getting them fixed.
I’m s new patient to Shepard Eye Center. I found it to exceptionally professional, sterile,. with warm well educated employees.

Dr. Golchet was awesome!
The Staff and Drs at Sheppard eye clinic and at the Drs surgery suite were all business. Get us in, do the surgery, and got us home for lunch. Both times. I liked it. Before surgery I had an amber, smokey view of the world for more than …
My experience with Dr. Ragui Sedeek (retinal specialist) has been exceptional. He has performed my third vitrectomy and found and fixed the reason my macular hole did not stay closed after having two previous surgeries by another retinal …
Moving in and out of examining rooms was ridiculous. I was in and out 5 times in three different rooms. In your previous office location everything was done in one examination room. However, that being said. My overall experience was very good.
Everyone here is very nice and are happy to answer any questions or concerns. They are always very prompt and professional. I would definitely recommend them for anyone looking for an optometrist.
Felt like money making set up. First person came in insisted I needed a full eye exam, which I already had at Costco. Band they charged me and said they wouldn’t, because my insurance didn’t cover eye exam.. Dr. Was good, said what I had …
Loving every second of my “new eyes” after lasik.
My family went camping this weekend and it was wonderful to wake up to a sunrise I could see without worrying about how to get my hands clean enough to put in …
I got a very thorough eye exam in which everything was explained to me. The staff is very knowledgeable and professional. Love the new modern office, very light bright and clean. I highly recommend Shepard Eye Clinic, especially Dr. Goodman.
I’ve been going to Shepard Eye for a few years and I must say it usually is a bit of a wait but not this time! I was lucky to go back quickly. They are always very friendly from the check in to the walk out! Very efficient! Pleasure to go here!
Every time I go for my appointments, the staff are always so nice and accommodating. I’ve never had a bad moment at Shepard’s.
Dr. Bylsma was very happy with how I was doing after my serious eye problems. I don’t know what I would have done without him and his wonderful assistant Jennifer. She is a great help. Kelly and Stella are wonderful at the front desk. They always go above and beyond to help the patient. Keep up the good work.
I am so grateful for the Shepard Eye Center! It is easy to make an appointment there and there is very little waiting to get in-not to mention the doctors who are wonderful! I am very pleased, too, that I can get my new glasses made there and there is a great selection of frames!
Great Doctor! I am sometimes apprehensive as I get someone different every time I go. I am a busy person and did have changes in my eyes that I just couldn’t describe very well. He was able to take the little information I provided and …
Terrific Doctors, incompetent staff. The first time I attempted to visit I made an appointment to see a certain Doctor to whom I had been referred. I asked for an appt with him and thought I had been given one. When I got there the …
I had lasix a couple months ago and had a good experience with that, however on a follow up appointment I arrived early to and checked in waited over 30 minutes past my appointment time to be seen and maybe even longer as I was not about to …

Only 4 stars because I was expecting more from an Ophthalmologist appointment than a optometry appointment, ie. more time discussing the health of my eye. I was …
Very professional. ALL staff is well trained and have great “bed-side-manner”. They do a great job.
Good doctors, I cannot recommend due to the staff though. We have really tried to be patient with this as sometimes you can just get bad staff members that come and go but our problems have persisted over the years. One example: we ordered …
LASIK. I went to Shepard for Lasik in both eyes. The doctors and staff were great. Everything was explained so well and there is always someone available to answer questions. The only thing I wish is that I wish I would have done it sooner. The results are amazing. Perfect vision, great experience.
Not happy with customer service. Frame dept does not return calls after two days of leaving voice-mails. Just want to know if my glasses are in. Will go back to online buying next year.
As always, my visits to Shepard Eye Clinic are pleasant, professional, timely and most importantly the only doctor visits I actually look forward to. So it is an additional bonus that I have a gaggle of progenies that also have appointments …
I am Dr. Goodman’s patient in SLO but he does laser surgery at Shepard Eye in Santa Maria. I found tge facility to be very clean & impressive. Thr staff was efficient & friendly.
I got Lasik surgery done last May. I loved it! Shepard Eye Center has been amazing since my first appointment up until my follow up. I highly recommend them 🙂
Both of my parents have had serious surgical procedures at Shepard Eye Center and both received stellar care, customer service and quality of treatment. Thank you Shepard Eye Center for keeping my aging parents’ eyes sharp!

I have AMD which terrified me when first told, but Dr. Shepard has been a blessing as he gives it to me straight and putting me on Areds 2 has helped so much. I recommend him for his caring persona.
I have been going to Shepard Eye Center for many years !! I had cataracts removed from both of my eyes and can see long distance now like when I was a teenager❣️I have a correction which has been there for years close up and wear one …
Dr. Bylsma at Elite Eyecare Medical Group nailed a problem I had been dealing with for over two years after cataract surgery with, and poor follow-up, with another eyecare group in Santa Maria. …
Everyone is always friendly, knowledgeable and professional. You are never made to feel they are rushing through your appointment to get on to the next patient. My wait time in the lobby after check-in was less than 10 minutes and once I …
I was very impressed by the pleasantness of the staff as this was my first visit to your office. The exam was quite thorough, the staff member explained in detail each step through the exam.
