Reviews for Birmingham, AL Ophthalmologist Dr. Young Choi

I had RLE on both eyes three weeks ago and I’ve never seen this well in my life. From “coke bottle” glasses in the 2nd grade, to years of uncomfortable saucer-like contacts, to 20/20 vision today, this is a game changer. I am truly grateful for Dr. Choi and his staff. In addition to skill and professionalism, they are kind and personable. More

Top notch Dr and staff. Very helpful and understanding. They did LASIK surgery on me, and it was very successful! Thank you Dr Choi More

Dr. Choi and staff are great! More

I truly have had a wonderful experience with Dr. Choi and his staff. I am so grateful for the vision that I have now. Dr. Choi is a excellent surgeon and his staff is also just as excellent. I always was at ease with each visit. I can't thank Dr. Choi and his staff enough for what they have done for me. More

Very polite and efficient. Would definitely use them again, my vision is.great! More

So professional! Great staff!! I can SEE!! Great experience!!! More

Utilizing top notch technology, Dr. Choi provides an excellent patient experience. He is warm and personable, professional and highly skilled. Cataracts at 45 were unexpected, but Dr. Choi put me at ease and the surgery went better than I expected. His staff is kind, knowledgeable, and exhibited professionalism each time I went to the office. I highly recommend Dr. Choi for eye surgery or needs beyond your optometrist. More

I am an interventional cardiologist from Florida and I had very bad near vision with astigmatism, and my wife is a retired RN who had difficulty reading. I researched for about 2 weeks for the best opthalmologist to correct my and my wife's vision. I would have traveled to anywhere in the United States since it involves our vision. Luckily, the best candidate I found was Dr Choi, who was only a 5 hour drive away. My wife and I went to Dr Choi for consultation. We were lucky to get appointments quickly during the pandemic. Initially I thought we were going to get the SMILE procedure, but Dr Choi recommended intraocular lens replacement. Both of us eventually got our vision corrected by intraocular lens implants. Our procedures went perfectly and I now have perfect vision. I am also a consultant for the FAA and I have been recommending Dr Choi to the pilots who want vision correction. We are so grateful to Dr Choi and his staff. We could not be happier. Francis K. Le, MD More

The place was nice and clean The staffing was great They treated me very well Very professional Keep up the good work More

Dr. Choi and his staff are wonderful. Couldn’t ask for a better experience. More

It was courteous, professional, and thorough. More

What can i say it was like the classic cinematic trick in the Wizard of Oz where Kansas was filmed in black and white then when Dorothy arrived in Oz it was in color. The staff was wonderful and I also had vision correction in left eye. I had bad vision all of my life and RK surgery complicated the cataract surgery and the vision i now have at my age is amazing. Great job. More

Really nice and knowledgeable staff More

Dr. Choi is terrific. I had cataract & astigmatism correction surgery on my left eye May 5th & Dr. Choi & his staff put me at ease immediately. They are professional, caring & very knowledgeable, answering my many questions. Surgery was done painlessly & successfully under mild sedative (no anesthesia). I'm looking forward to Dr. Choi doing same surgery on right eye May 19th. I highly recommend Dr. Choi! More

Dr. Choi is a highly skilled surgeon who exhibited an extremely reassuring manner about my procedure. I have had wonderful results and I am highly pleased with my improved vision. I would recommended Dr. .Choi and his staff for their outstanding care, attention to details, and overall professional excellence in treating their patients. More

It was good, the first day on the right eye I did have to wait around 3 hours to get called back for the surgery. The left eye I was in and out in 30 mins. More

Wonderful people working and all very very nice. The doctor was great and I appreciated very much his prayer at the beginning of surgery. God bless each of them More

All went well and quite fast! More

Dr. Choi did my tri-focal lens replacement in mid-January and I am very happy. My wife and I are saving to have hers done there as well. Healing has been exactly what the Dr. stated it would be. I was a tad impatient on the front side expecting miracles immediately and failed to realize the body needs time to heal. I was super pumped since I wore glasses for 37 years (this includes most of my childhood). Thank you Dr. Choi for opening up a new and exiting world to me. I would also like to state all of the staff is nothing short of excellent. Thanks to everyone. More

Thank you Dr. Choi for the my vision! Feels good to not have to wear contacts or glasses ever again! Strongly recomment choosing Dr. Choi if you need lasik, he is a very caring doctor with a very professional staff. More

The best caring ophthalmologist you could see. Has done 2 types of surgery on me in the last 11 years. Very pleased with all my care. Also done surgery on my husband and he is also very pleased with his care. Excellent care . More

You are in good hands with Dr. Choi. He has a rare gift. Not only as a highly skilled surgeon, but also as a kind, patient, caring physician. His kindness is reflected through his awesome staff. AND I CAN SEE! For the first time in my life, I can see the leaves on the trees, the individual flowers, my husband’s eyelashes! Without glasses! Thanks for a priceless gift. More

I 💯 recommend Dr. Choi for Cataract Eye Surgery, LASIK, SMILE, YAG, SLT, and Goniatomy - among other clinical procedures offered. He and his staff are extremely friendly and accommodating (especially during COVID-19) Not to mention, it is the nicest surgical facility I have ever seen! More

I am beyond impressed with my recent Lasix by Dr. Choi! They all made me feel very safe and comfortable the whole time. Dr. Choi took his time explaining and weighing options. I felt like he actually cared and I wasn’t just another patient. I love my new eyes! I can finally see!! More

Had a perfect result with my surgery. I’m very happy with the experience. More

Excellent doctor - Dr. Choi performed intra-ocular surgery on both my eyes, and I have been so pleased with the results. After wearing contacts/glasses for 27 years, I am now completely free of them. More

Performed cataract surgery on both eyes 5 years ago. My vision improved markedly and has remained excellent to present. His O.D. Dr. Gregory is also excellent and the imaging test equipment including ultrasound is state of the art. They monitor my angle closure glaucoma every 4 months with pressures of 10 in each eye. Vision last appointment (March 2019) was 20/15. Not bad for 76 years old. Great doctors, great office!!!!!! More

Friendly and professional in both office and outpatient surgery hospital. More

Had Lasik surgery from Dr. Choi he was very professional and answered any questions. Was scheduled for surgery the following week. Surgery was quick and I'm in my third week of recovery. My eyesight went from a prescription -2.75/-3 to 20/20. Money very well spent. Would recommend anyone wanting or thinking about Lasik to him. Very nice man. More

Dr. Choi is an excellent surgeon. I had cataracts removed and astigmatism corrected in both eyes. My vision is very good. My dependency on glasses has been greatly reduced. Great bedside manner - very calming, answers questions, spends plenty of time with patients. He even prayed with me before the surgery. Beautiful office. His office is always crowded and that is because of his excellent expertise and personality. Staff is OK. I do trust him to do further surgery if necessary. More

I don't usually write reviews, but they really did a great job! Great customer service from the the start. Loving my new eyes, no more contacts, wish I would have had my LASIK sooner. Thanks Dr. Choi! More
