I found myself for the second time, in the very capable care of Dr Brimhall and his very professional staff both in the office and clinic settings. The whole experiences were great. Highly recommend to my family and friends. Date of procedure 4/7/2026
Awesome staff, awesome service
Dr. Brimhall staff is so nice and friendly and professional. And Dr. Brimhall himself has such a wonderful bedside manner. Next week I get my cataract surgery done and I am excited and I have trust in him.
Dr. Brett Brimhall saved my left eye. He is an incredible physician and an exceptional person. I can’t give him enough praise. And I will forever be grateful to him. Last Thursday I called his office to make an appointment for the following week as a new patient. But by the next afternoon my slightly impaired vision had quickly worsened to about a 70% loss of sight. So I did an AI search using Perplexity to find out how serious it might be. It revealed a possible medical emergency. (This was Friday evening long after his regular office hours). I called his answering service at 7pm explaining that I was worried about my rapidly deteriorating vision in my left eye. The service called Dr. Brimhall who called me right away. After listening to my symptoms he agreed to immediately return to his office where he gave me a thorough eye examination. He found that I had a detached retina that was worsening by the hour. Dr. Brimhall started calling retina surgeons until he found one who would see me as soon as possible. As a result, the next morning I underwent emergency surgery at Sunrise Hospital where Dr. Chris Wu re-attached my retina by performing a vitrectomy. Dr. Brimhall told me that had I waited a few days it would have been too late to fix my retina. Dr. Wu concurred. I’m a 73 year-old retired pharmacist with a lifetime of experience with physicians. Without any hesitation I can tell the world that Dr. Brimhall is one of the best physicians in all respects that I’ve ever met. Any patient of Dr. Brimhall will receive the best and most professional treatment and care. Thank you very much Dr. Brimhall. You are one very special person.
I underwent PRK surgery in 2014, and unfortunately, my vision has been significantly worse ever since. Even with glasses, the world around me appears muted and lacks the sharp detail I once had. It’s been the biggest mistake of my life, and I regret it daily. I chose this doctor because, as a veteran myself, I trusted him—but he truly damaged my vision, and it continues to deteriorate each year. These two eyes are all I have, and watching my vision fade is incredibly disheartening.
I am writing about Dr Thompson…he is the kindest! he makes you feel safe and listens so well..so talented! the best thing about him is what the entire staff at both offices he works and the surgery center says about him to me…he is so well respected and loved by his peers and I understand why…he makes you feel like you’re not just another patient..he makes you feel heard and seen (no pun intended..lol). I am so grateful to have found this office and to have had Dr Thompson be my doctor and work on my eyes. 👀 Thanks Dr Thompson and the staff at Brimhall and at the surgery center!
It's been 4 months since I had lasik surgery by Dr. Brimhall and it was one of the best decisions I have made. I can see perfectly after having worn glasses for almost 30 years. his staff was caring and he was very knowledgeable and kind. I will recommend Dr. Brimhall to anyone needing lasik surgery.
Excellent Ophtomologist. Dr Brimhall staff accommodated my emergency and got me to see him quickly. He quickly diagnosed my eye shingle problem and prescribed the right medicine to help resolve my malady. I highly recommend Dr Brimhall he also has excellent human skills dealing with patients. He also speak fluid mandarin.
