Dr Aiello is courteous and friendly, but most of all, concerned about the best way to help every individual patient. He spends as much time as is needed to determine the best way to help. I am very grateful for his expertise.

I have been going to Dr Aiello for a few years now. I was being treated for macular degeneration which required me to get an injection in my eye. For two years I wasn’t charged for this injection because my insurance covered it. All of a sudden I was charged $400 for my injection. I called their office to find out why and they said the Dr used a different kind of shot that was more expensive. I didn’t authorize this as it was never discussed with me. Today as I walked in the office for my appointment the girl that usually ch... read more

Dr A did my cataracts. Options for upsells were well explained, but not pushed as I hear some places do Reception and scheduling is professional and the surgery was flawless (no upgrades)

I want to be very clear here, I was prescribed eye drops that I was allergic to, when I told him he was not once asked how they affected me or was concerned about it. When I continued with a severe swollen eyeball after 2 weeks and various side affects, I called and was set up with a Dr. Scot who did a CYA meeting with me and sneered at me for thinking it could possibly be from the prednisone eye drops I was allergic to or cortisone and again he did not once ask what symptoms I was having. I was so disgusted & fear, I drove ... read more

I was treated as if my payment was most important part of visit. Scheduler lied to me= she said they would send in ins. claim & any money they received would be returned to me since I had to pay for surgery upfront. This was a lie. Sue in billing tried to tell me I signed a paper saying the ins. would not pay; what she showed me was not my signature. BEWARE if you go to this clinic. My vision is not improved and my eye is still irritated. I have documentation from ins. company that they did make a payment & I will try to res... read more

Excellent physician, lense implants went well :o) HOWEVER, dealing with the Surgery Center's 'payment disorder' is frustrating. It took me 3 months to get back what I overpaid. The Sx Center is acting as if it will go bankrupt soon. CAREFUL when you deal with them!!!

Never would I recommend him to anyone! He did cataract surgery on both eyes and while one was great the other is absolutely horrible. I went back twice and his associates said I have 2020 vision!! I’ve gone to 3 Drs here in San Luis Obispo an each was appalled. I’m having surgery tomorrow and it will be $3000 out of pocket. My Dr. actually apologized that I’ve had to go thru this.
