Reviews of Joffe MediCenter
Keitha Gallien
Great customer service & care! I was so nervous to have the surgery done because I've been wearing glasses since elementary, but they walked me through the whole process and explained it to me in detail. Thank you again for taking care of me!
FoodinMind
Great service! For someone as myself, who has not had any "major" procedure done before now, JMC associates and the center's atmosphere will make you feel comfortable enough to have a procedure done - if you choose to do Lasik!
Bonus: Their T-SHIRT is looks good too!
Bejaye Ilegbodu
I had my PRK procedure done on 12/6/19. I was originally recommended to Dr. January, as he is really the best, but he was unavailable the day of my surgery, so Dr. Merkley did it instead. I was really nervous and scared to do PRK, because I've had Lasik done before, but everything went better than expected. And it is super quick! A few seconds per eye. Amazingly, there was no real pain. My recovery/healing after the procedure went well too. I would say on a scale of 1-10, my pain/discomfort level was only about a 5-6. I'm glad I finally stopped putting this off and got it done.
My experience at Joffe MediCenter was really good. Shai, Dr. Do, Dr. Su, and the nurse staff were all super friendly, and attentive to me during each visit. I highly recommend coming here for your Lasik or PRK needs.
If you would like to receive $50 off your next Lasik/PRK procedure please use my referral code which is my name "Bejaye Ilegbodu" D.O.B. 05-27-1989. Thanks! 🙂

Decided that i wanted 20/20 vision in 2020. 24hours after my procedure I can see a little better than 20/20.
After 20 years of wearing contacts, since i was 8 years old, I'm excited to not have to wear them anymore.
To go from not being able to see my hand in front of my face 1 foot away to not being able to see just as if I had my glasses on is awesome.
Joseph Nguyen
Staff was amazing. Very reassuring on the day of treatment. 24 hours after treatment my vision is 20/15!
Price was lower than other places that I’ve researched. They were willing to work with me for my no interest payment plan. It is through Care Credit.
I was nervous going into the procedure but they definitely do everything to make you as comfortable as they can. Would definitely recommend.
Jodi Fernandez
I had a great experience both in my original exam and for my surgery. The staff is very friendly, informative and really set you at ease. The space itself is clean and comfortable and you do not feel like it's a cattle call. The procedure to not take very long, 1 hour from entering the building to procedure end. I've had great results, driving at night the day after my appointment and been working at my computer every day almost since. Their pricing is more competitive than most and they offer financing options as well. They just made the entire thing very easy!
Shalima Ramirez
The whole staff is very friendly and makes you feel comfortable. My procedure was very easy and quick. The consultations are quick as well but very thorough. They answered all my questions and were very informative. Dr. January made me feel calm during the whole procedure. There was discomfort after surgery but only lasted for about an hour. Everything felt fine after my 5hr nap. Would definitely recommend to friends and family.
Courtney Barron
The staff was very knowledgable and answered every and any question I had. I had my procedure done and took less than 10 minutes. I felt fine after taking a 5 hr nap. Dr. Sue is fantastic and even called me later that day to check on me. So friendly and makes you feel very comfortable. They stay on top of making sure you have followup visits with them. A day after the surgery I almost had 20/15 vision (which is better than 20/20). Look forward to my visit a month from now!
Mariya T
I was very nervous about having eye surgery and deciding who to trust with my sight. After visiting some facilities, I chose Joffe because I felt most comfortable there and I am very happy with my decision! After initial evaluation I called many times with new questions and staff was always happy to help. Dr and staff are very carrying towards patients and facility is beautiful. I am very happy with my decision to trust Joffe MediCenter and to leave my glasses in the past!
Trevor Talbert
Absolutely enjoyed every bit of my experience from the consultation to the check up following my surgery. The staff were wonderful and showed concern for my ocular health. Dr. January also called me personally the day before my surgery to make sure I was comfortable and to answer and questions I may have had. Definitely will recommend them to anyone!!!
Scott Forshee
I had my evaluation appointment with the Jorge staff. They were very thorough with there exam. Every member of the staff was well trained and very professional. Made you feel like you had known them your whole life.
After the exam I was told I really wasn't a good candidate for the procedure. I had the choice to say yes or no but they highly recommended not to do it. I have worn contacts for 40 years and with that news was very disappointed.. I very much appreciated their professional opinion and honesty. Would highly recommend these fine people to anyone.
Penelope McClendon
Very professional people. I highly recommended this place. Everything went smooth from start to finish. They took the time to explain everything to me and answer every question and concerns I have. My eye surgeon was Dr. January. The procedure was approx 10 minutes. The staff is very helpful. The next day I’m seeing 20/20. Dr Do and Dr. Su was awesome! They are very approachable. ROXY, ASHLEY, and SHAY (I hope I’m spelling his name right) were personable. I was very nervous prior to the procedure and was trying not to freak out but Ashley helped me tremendously by rubbing my shoulder during the hardest part, which is the flap creation. Thank you Ashley!
Kayla Laplume
Everyone was very professional and kind during my experience. The surgeon made me very comfortable, and calmed my nerves about the procedure. Day 1 after surgery and I can see clearly and everything is going great! I would highly recommend Joffe medicenter to anybody inquiring about lasik!
Narciso Aurioles
My whole experience was amazing!!! Everyone was super friendly and made me feel so comfortable. I had my surgery done on February 22 and until now everything looks wonderful. I'm so happy and blessed!! I would definitely recommend Joffe, thank you to all!!
Emma
Excellent service. Could not fault them at all in any way. Every single member of staff is super friendly, informative and amazing. The doctor was incredible. Their process on the day of procedure was like a well oiled machine!!! Def don't go anywhere else.
Next day went in for my follow up and I'm already reading 20/20. My eyes feel great.
The day of surgery, after my LASIK I followed all instructions, drops and sleep. I feel amazing. My vision is so sharp and clear.
Kyle Martens
Put me down as a referral for $50 off!! (Kyle Martens)
Got my eyes done here and it was awesome from beginning to end. Just got done with my follow up and I have 20/15 vision and it's going to keep getting better! Everyone was very nice, the procedure was fast (8 minutes in and out), and hugely affordable compared to other places (0% financing available).
My coworkers came here too and had great results!
Trang Diep
I just got LASIK done for both of my eyes today. Since nobody could be able to go with me, I had to go by myself and took the ride home. However, the staffs were super friendly and professional. They kept me being calm by rubbing my arms, talking to me to help me to focus on the light during the surgery. It has been 12 hours and I’m feeling great after a long nap. Can’t wait to go check up tomorrow to see what my current vision is, but HEY, I KNOW I’M NOT BLIND ANYMORE 😊😊
Jasmine Tran
I loved my experience here! Staff was friendly and welcoming! The environment here is super clean & their massage chair before surgery was very relaxing. I loved the repetition of the information; it really helped me remember what to do! I had Dr.Sue (she is so sweet!! Love her!) help me through the information, and Ashley G, gave me a very clear path going forward with the procedure. I have recommended all my friends and family here! (You can say I recommended u for $50 off ur procedure 😛)
I010110 1o01o1
Easily 5/5 stars. An absolutely amazing experience. The whole process was very relaxing. The staff was very knowledgeable and made me feel at ease about the procedure. Dr. Bruce January did my surgery and had told me in detail of what it entails, and had very good skills when it came time to start. I ended up with 20/15 vision and will be recommend them to personal family and anyone looking to better their vision. Thank you Joffe Medicenter.
Onyx K
I just had my eyes done yesterday and the difference is amazing! Not fumbling around for where I put my glasses when I woke up was a treat, and so far recovery has been quick and side effect free. The staff are all extremely courteous, make sure you feel welcome and ease your nerves, and are unfailingly professional. I'm very impressed and glad I chose Joffe for my Lasik procedure.
Christina Austin
Great customer service. Christina at the front desk is super sweet. Shai has a calming voice and is knowledgeable answering my many questions. The procedure was so quick and Dr. Merkley and his team were very informative the entire time, making me feel at ease because I knew exactly what was going on. The entire staff is well trained.
Being someone who has worn glasses since I was 9, waking up being able to see has been fantastic. I highly recommend Joffe MediCenter!
Amy Nguyen
Had my Lasik surgery done today. It was the best decision I’ve ever made. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. They answer every questions that I had. I was nervous upon arrival but they made me feel right at home. I highly recommend this place if you are thinking about getting Lasik done. The procedure was quick and painless. I can see immediately after it was done and it was the best feeling ever.
Claudia Osorio
From the beginning it was a great experience. I submitted my free consultation online on Monday 6/12/17 around 9:00 am before 10:00 someone had already contacted me and I was able to get in by 11 to have my consultation. From the minute I walked in I felt comfortable. The girls at the front couldn't be nicer they were so welcoming. All the staff Is so professional and friendly. The lady that performed the consultation is so knowledgeable so sweet. Before the surgery they go over again all questions you may have and the lady that answered all my questions prior to the surgery was incredible sweet. The Dr makes you feel so confident and comfortable. The surgery it's actually kinda scary I was freaking out but again the confidence the Dr gives you makes you go thru the whole surgery at peace. I'm so happy I found this place googling best lasik places in Houston. The reviews were actually true. Again I can't explain how happy and excited I feel about this place and about no wearing glasses anymore. I had my surgery around 11 am and I was able to drive myself to my consultation at 4 and I was able to SEE. I hope my vision gets clearer and clearer but for now I'm ecstatic about the results so far and the whole experience with Joffe.
jeanni nguyen
I was but scared at first but the staff here is amazing! Everyone is soooo nice. Dr January did my laser treatment and he made me feel super comfortable. My boyfriend is getting his done as well they Thursday after seeing my result. I highly recommend this place. Thank you!!
Megan Z
I really appreciated that they walk you through every detail, from what they're looking at to make sure you're a good candidate to what to expect during and post-surgery. I had gone to an initial consultation at another place locally and they didn't go in-depth at all about any of this. I felt like I was in very capable hands and during the surgery, everyone did a great job of keeping me calm. My vision was pretty blurry the day of and the day after but has steadily improved (it's been about two weeks since the procedure). I have slight fuzziness when I look at lights and a bit of dry eye in the morning, but that's it! Everyone heals differently but if you stare at a computer screen for 8+ hours a day, you may want to block off a few days for recovery. I had 3 days off but even then, my first day back was hard on my eyes.
Sandra Gomez
I just did my lasik surgery yesterday and I feel like a whole new person. By far the best decision I have ever made. From the beginning of the consultation till the actual procedure and follow up this place has been wonderful, they make you feel very comfortable. Thank you to the whole staff they've been great 😊. I would like to give a special shout out to Ashley, she talked with me threw the whole surgery I don't think I could have done it without her. Thank you guys so much! Definitely referring!
Candace Matthews
They were able to work around my schedule so I didn't have to take off work to come to appointments. They made the experience easy and provide financing options. The day of my surgery I did have to wait almost 2.5 hours past my scheduled surgery time to actually get in an have the surgery done, but it was a success. The staff here is very kind. I would & have recommended this place to others who are interested.
chaela reynolds
Their facility is amazing. The front staff was very welcoming and attentive! I only was there to accompany my roommate for his procedure. Shia made my roommate and myself feel very comfortable and educated us well on what to expect. Dr.January was awesome as well. Made the entire experience feel fun and easy. I would recommend their practice to anyone interested in getting lasik!
April Me
Everyone here is so professional and helpful. Every step was detailed and everyone was super knowledgeable about everything. Dr. January was awesome and made me feel relaxed. This office is like a well oiled machine and I would definitely recommend them if you are interested in lasik, they will take care of you and make you feel comfortable every step of the way.
Melissa Clark
I had been wanting LASIK for years, but was always a bit uncomfortable with the idea of a laser near my eyes. I have several friends who have had it done and they said it was the best thing they've ever done. So, I decided to just do it and one of my friends recommended Joffe. I am so glad I did! I had my procedure yesterday and everyone from start to finish was friendly and did everything they could to make me feel comfortable. Ashley G was fantastic! I woke up this morning, reached over for my glasses, and of course, they weren't there. It was pretty awesome to realize that I don't need them anymore! Thanks to everyone at Joffe for giving me freedom from glasses :)
Bernadette feezor
I was extremely nervous about the procedure but that staff made me feel at ease. They are caring and accommodating. Roxy was amazing during the procedure! Her count down to the end was very helpful! I will absolutely recommend this place to all my fiends and family !
Claudia Marie
Finally built the courage to get lasik done and I'm mad that it took me this long! The staff at Joffe was SO sweet and comforting from the day of consultation, procedure day, and then follow-up appointment. The procedure was very fast, I'd say I was on the table for maybe 7 minutes. Also, it was much more affordable than other places. I cannot thank Joffe MediCenter enough for this life changing procedure. HIGHLY recommend!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Gloria Lemus
The staff is amazing and makes you feel so comfortable and my procedure went so smooth! After wearing glasses/contacts for 16 years, it feels incredible being able to see without having to wear my glasses. I don’t regret my decision on getting lasik eye surgery one bit. I definitely recommend them!
Crystal Bautista
I was so nervous and scared for my husband to get his surgery done but I'm his backbone so at the end I decided to get a consultation too and get the Lasik Surgery done the next day! I was so nervous scared and I felt like my anxiety was going to kick-in but the staff are so awesome, caring, outgoing that they made me feel comfortable. Roxy was so helpful with the countdown and explaining through the process! Thank You Dr.January for being so kind and love the music! AWESOME FUN TEAM! :-)
Chelsea Carpenter
I absolutely loved the care I received here! Had Lasik done on 1/18 and after I napped at home I could see everything for the first time in 19 years! The staff is amazing and patient care is perfect. Dr. January was very helpful and a great doctor throughout the procedure. Before choosing here I went to 2 other facilities and was not impressed. The minute I walked into Joffe I instantly felt comfortable and confident in all the staff and the entire Lasik process! They truly do treat every individual with the best care, I’m very grateful for choosing here!
Rohan Palanki
Absolutely amazing service from the doctors and staff at Joffe MediCenter in Houston. From the consultation to the day-of to the follow-up, Joffe was a seamless experience for my LASIK procedure. 24 hours later and I can see perfectly. I could not recommend this clinic more!
Antionette Johnson
My experience was AMAZING! I was so so scared at the beginning because I didn’t know what to expect and the eyes are sensitive. They made me super comfortable and talked me through the whole process. Within four hours I went from 20/70 nearsightedness to 20/15, which is better than 20/20. My eyes aren’t even done healing yet and I already have one of the best visions. I highly recommend Joffe MediCenter for your LASIK surgery
Nicole Ray
Dr. January was amazing. Everyone at the office is very attentive to your needs to make sure that you’re comfortable. I’ve worn glasses for over 12 years and was very nervous, but he literally has the best team. I hope I never have to have lasik again but if I do I’ll definitely be back. Thanks for everything Dr. January! You’ve made it easy for me everyday to get up and go.
Cliff Willis
I have been waiting to write my review until a few days after my surgery and my follow-up appointment, and here I am 3 days later. I qualified for the promotion, so my Lasik actually ended up costing a TOTAL of $795 per eye. Needless to say that's incredibly cheap and the deal is real, so I want everyone to know that. Even without the deal, they're WAY cheaper than everyone else in Houston.
I can say that it went very well, and everyone was very nice. It's true that they're very pushy to get you to write a review, which I don't like, but I also realize that it's how they keep their costs down and drive traffic vs advertisement costs etc that the other companies spend money on, which drive up their costs.
I got my Lasik done at 10AM on a Friday morning, and after taking a nap when I got home, woke up with restored vision. I'm 34 and haven't worn glasses or contacts since I was 16, so my eyes aren't used to seeing clearly at all and haven't tried to focus on anything in the distance in a long time, therefore my brain has to catch up now before some of my blurriness will go away, but Joffe has assured me that in a few weeks I'll have excellent vision. That being said, I already see far better than I ever have, and was able to read the 20/15 line during my test.
So 3 days later, I have 20/15 vision that's only going to get better and better over time. Will update review in 30 days. Thanks Joffe!
Jessica Osorio
I LOVE my new vision! I had been wanting to do Lasik for years but I was always SO nervous. Everyone at Joffe made me feel so comfortable and confident about my decision. This team is amazing!!! Thank you so much.
Anna Trammell
I can see 20/10 and it’s only my second day after the surgery.... I. Am. Ecstatic!!!! It’s the best money I have ever spent! I’m so so happy. I have never been able to see this well.
The first day was a bit uncomfortable at first but I just slept alllll day in a pitch black cold room. When I woke up I could already see amazing and it’s only improved since then.
They have a great staff. The doctor is great and they clearly (pun intended) have done an amazing job on my eyes.
luisa perez
I recommend Joffe MediCenter the nurses are very kind and treat you very good. They did Lasik on April 19 and for the same day in the afternoon I was already seeing very well. Another thing that I like it's that the surgery was fast and that they explain to you things very well before the surgery. I'm in love with my new view.
Neil Seoni
If you're considering LASIK, definitely go in for a consultation! The procedure and recovery are way quicker, easier and more comfortable than you think. I had a great experience at Joffe. Everyone was very helpful and reassuring, and the process went smoothly from start to finish.
Colby Wulf
My experience was filled with the utmost care and respect. From the beginning they were kind, patient and helpful towards me. The procedure itself was quick and over before I knew it. Unfortunately, my left eye still had astigmatism and so I didn’t have 20/20 in both eyes right away. The team at Joffe helped me throughout the entire process to make sure my left eye matched my right eye and to take care of the severe astigmatism in my left eye with an enhancement surgery within 6 months after my initial surgery. If you’re looking to have your lasik eye surgery done with a team that is carefully attuned to your needs, this is the place! And also affordable and competitive pricing!
Briseida Ramirez
Amazing! Everyone is super friendly and sweet! I can already see clearly and it hasn’t even been 24 hours yet! The procedure itself was pain free and quick and they also kept telling me what was going on throughout the whole process. My vision was a little foggy at first and I had a burning feeling but after a good nap I woke up and it was gone! Just overall everything and everyone is amazing! Totally recommend! Worth the money! :)
Naomi E
Great staff, very friendly, and made me feel so comfortable throughout the whole process. I was treated like family and would definitely recommend Joffe to anyone interested in lasik. I was in and out, able to see that night!! It was very emotional and thank Dr. January and staff very much. 2 thumbs up from me!
Emily Thompson
Amazing! Every single person I have dealt with there has been fantastic! So helpful, calm, friendly and knowledgeable! I had a severe astigmatism in my right eye and I'm already seeing a HUGE difference and it hasn't even been 24 hours!
I was super nervous before my procedure and Dr. January took the time to sit with me, answer my questions, and joke around for a few minutes. At no point did I ever feel uncomfortable. Everything was explained to me in detail before and again while it was happening. The procedure itself was over in less than a minute!
10/10 Would recommend!!!
Broc Domec
I have been wearing contacts and glasses for more that 20 years. I walked out of Joffe with excellent vision the day of my procedure. Words can't explain how impressed i was with the entire staff. Everyone was very courteous, friendly, and professional. They made me feel at home during every stage of the procedure and I am EXTREMELY satisfied. I would highly recommend Joffe to anyone who is tired of not being able to see without glasses. If you want to change your life, this place can make that happen. Way to go Joffe, you guys are AMAZING!!! THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME MY VISION BACK!!!!
Jenny Torres
I had lasik done with the Joffe MediCenter in April, and I’m very happy I got it done here. The staff were super nice and incredibly helpful. They went over all the details the day of, and procedure probably only took about 5 minutes. Overall I’m happy I got it done and my vision has improved significantly.
Uyen Jeude
This place is the best. I was really nervous about getting lasik but I had nothing to worry about. The staff at Joffe is amazing and they walk you through every step of the procedure. Everyone who stepped out of the operating room before me had a big smile on their faces so that was reassuring. It didn't hurt at all. When I woke up on the first day my vision was still blurry so I was worried that I'd still have to wear glasses but the next day when I woke up everything was much better and better the next day even. I can't believe I waited so long for this. I had no discomfort at all.
Samantha Williams
From the moment I walked in for my initial exam until the end of my procedure everyone made me feel comfortable and relaxed. Everyone was so friendly and helpful, open to any and all questions. I felt very confident with Dr. Merkley's 20 plus years experience. The procedure went very well and after waking from my nap I can see!! What an amazing technology and an amazing staff to pull it off!
Kim Denise
My experience here was AMAZING! I was extremely nervous but the staff made me feel so comfortable! I felt like I had known them for years. Ingrid, Sabrina, Dr. Su, and Dr. January were so personable. They answered all of my questions and made me feel at ease. They even had a massage chair in the pre-op room!
Unfortunately, I only remember one of the girls names that helped during the procedure, Ashley. She was so sweet talking me through the steps and helping keep me calm. The procedure was very quick. I went home, went to sleep for a few hours, woke up and after about 20 years of wearing glasses, could see without them. Even though I've written this review, words can't explain how wonderful this experience has been. Thanks Joffe MediCenter Team....Dr. January...YOU DA REAL MVP!
irving velasquez
what is there not to be satisfied about. I'm 20 years old, my vision has been restored and the procedure went absolutely smooth. The staff was just perfect felt more than welcomed and calm. I was nervous due to the excitement. The procedure isn't painful and there is no discomfort in the process or after. the staff will answer all questions for you and I HIGHLY recommend Joffe Medicenter. Thank you Joffe Medicenter for changing my life
-Irving Velasquez
Teddy Schanes
There aren't enough words to describe how present my experience was here. The staff was extremely helpful. The surgeon, doctor, and resident helped me overcome my anxiety and made the entire procedure easy. I am 6 hours out from surgery and my vision is better than 20/20.
Tristan MacLeod
I have had an overall excellent experience at Joffe. The doctors and all of the staff were very nice and personally attentive. The discomfort after the procedure only lasted about 3 hours for me and my vision seems nearly perfect already. I would definitely recommend this office for Lasik.
CJ Yei
Just had my first lasik experience. It was very quick and easy!
Dr. January was cool. He played some jams while I was on the operating table. The Valium definitely calmed down my nerves before the surgery.
Overall, highly recommend this place!
Anna George
I had a great experience with Joffe. The consultation was informative and with little to no wait time. Payment options are clear cut with no hidden cost, they actually have someone explain the cost breakdown and other option.
The procedure day I was there for maybe an hour, and so far the recovery has been great.
Steve O
Best experience ever! I honestly was skeptical at first, but they help and inform me throughout the whole process. After the procedure, I never wore my glasses! I recommended to anyone that wants an effective, precise, and affordable life- change experience!
Holly Dinh
Amazing experience at Joffe Lasik! All staff are very courteous and things were done in a very efficient manner. Dr. Merkley was great! He also was very courteous with me and was very patient with all of the questions that I had. It is unbelievable how clear my vision was right after the procedure! Took under 15 minutes for the whole thing. I wish I would have done this sooner!
Christin Nora
I’ve had reservations about this procedure for years. I’ve been in glasses since I was 5. Finally came for a consultation and was very impressed had the procedure and after I woke up from the suggested sleep time it was instant gratification I was so emotional to see the TV or the guide on the TV or lines on the street driving at night for the first time in a long time I would definitely recommend or anyone the procedure was so simple and quick the staff and the physician talk you through it and it was not bad at all. It definitely cleared any myths or misconceptions I’ve had.
Adriana G
Highly recommend Joffe Medicenter. The staff was amazing, they truly care about the patients. I was so happy that I got my lasik. No pain. The procedure didn’t last long. It was a great experience for me. I was extremely nervous but Yesi, Dr. Merkley, Ashley, Emily, and the receptionist Ashley were the sweetest and most calming people to be around on this day. I am so happy with results and appreciate the jobs that the staff have and are so passionate about. One thing I regret is waiting so long to get this procedure done.
Edit: 10 months later.... very happy I chose this office to do my lasik I still have perfect vision and I absolutely LOVE IT!! I love that I don’t have to wake up and put my glasses on, these hot summer months I was able to wear my sunnies and lastly I can do my makeup with no problems.
derek hale
I can finally get my pilot's license!!!
They have the nicest most knowledgeable staff I have encountered. Made the entire process easy and painless. No hidden costs and the procedure took only a few minutes. Highly recommend for anyone who's tired of corrective lenses. A++ Joffe Lasik!!
Beth Sanchez B.A.
Amazing! I had a 7:30 am surgery appointment and was enjoying an Astros game at 7pm! I never realized how many leaves were on trees, stones were in cement or crisp lines on cars, I always saw color blobs and even with glasses never saw depth! I feel amazing and it's only day one! The staff is the best and after 10 years of wanting it done, I found the right place. 100% worth it!
Miguel Briceno
Dr. Merkley was very professional and kind. The entire staff made me feel comfortable from the initial consultation through my last follow up, and the actual procedure only lasted a few minutes and was painless. The best part was waking up the next day and being able to see perfectly for the first time :) Thanks Joffe Center!
Paola Mitchell
I really love Joffe Medicenter! I had a super high prescription and even though I needed an enhancement done on both eyes. Dr. Sue & the other doctors kept a "close eye" on me to make I was healing properly. Everyone at the office is great! Dr. Sue is awesome! I'm enjoying not wearing contacts and waking up in the middle of the night and actually seeing, without having to put contacts in or glasses.
Jason West
Wow! What a great day! I can finally see and feel great! Joffe made it so easy and all of the staff might be the nicest people in the world. The process was so fast that I actually drove myself back to my follow up appointment! Great experience would highly recommend!
Tanya Shotashvili
I've wanted to get lasik for a long time but was apprehensive about it. The staff at Joffe was very nice and friendly. They addressed every concern I had and the procedure was quick and smooth. At first my vision was the same but after a few hours it was amazing!

I had a great experience here! The staff was always very professional and friendly. They helped calm me when I was nervous during the procedure and were very helpful during the follow up appointments! love that I can see a lot better now! It makes such a huge difference!

Wow! I have had a really amazing experience here, from the staff being absolutely welcoming and natural and realistic to the actual procedure itself being quick and absolutely 100% what I was expecting and now I'm 20/15.. no more glasses! Thank y'all so much :) just an overall completely awesome experience, especially for a doctors office, when they're going in to laser your eyeball, HA! Thank You Thank You!!!! Happy patient!
Ashley Anderson
Dr. January was the best doctor I ever had experience with. I wasn’t nervous at all cause the team make you feel so comfortable. The procedure lasted less than one song and you feel like you’re in a club. Overall it was the best experience and I would do it again. If you use my name you will get $50 off. Ashley Anderson. My vision is actually 20/15 and I’ve been blind since elementary and I’m 26 now lol.
Amanda Griffin
AMAZING experience!! From the moment you walk through the doors you're greeted by friendly, professional staff. Shai, Ashley and Dr. January went out of their way to make sure I was making an informed decision. The procedure was affordable, especially considering the high quality care and service that was provided! Dr. Merkley made sure that all of my concerns were addressed before performing the surgery. The entire team was attentive and knowledgeable. My vision was 20/15 at my first follow up visit!! I highly recommend Joffe Medicenter!
Tina Li
This place is amazing! Staff and doctors are all so nice and patient.
Roxy did my initial consultation and she was friendly, personable, and laughed at all my nervous jokes like she meant it. The questions were thorough and I found that reassuring. Dr. Law did my initial eye exam and she took her time to answer my questions, and never did I feel rushed or like I was just another patient on her list. I scheduled my appointment for the week after, and was given consent forms to review for the day of, and told to wear my glasses for the two days prior to procedure.
The morning of procedure, Dr. Law did another eye exam, and then I was led into a room to watch a video and prepare. Dr. Merkley came in to explain what I was going to expect and answered any remaining questions. During the procedure Ingrid was the best person - she helped Dr. Merkley walk me through what was happening, counting down how long certain parts would be. It was much more helpful than I can explain. The next AM I had my follow up and Dr. Shai was funny, relaxed, and just as enthusiastic about my improved eyesight as I was.
So far, my experience has been nothing short of great.

Everyone is super friendly! I can already see clear and it has not been 24 hours yet! The procedure itself was pain free and quick. Even though I was a bit nervous at first they kept me calm with telling me what was happen throughout the whole procedure. I cant believe I wait to so long to get the procedure done. I Definitely recommend.
Stephanie Carr
Roxy Hernandez is an absolute sweetheart! I was here before in 2015 but never went through with the procedure because I got pregnant.. then I came back this past week and they were able to schedule me in on a Saturday at my convenience!! They are super flexible and Ashley G. was also amazing and helpful. The Dr was kind, fast, and really cool. He asked to take a pic with me after the procedure was done, I kid you not it took less than like 10 minutes and now I’m at my post-op appt and can see 20/20 and I’m told it’s only going to get better! I’m happy with my results and I definitely recommend this location 100%! Thank you Dr. Merkley, Roxy, and Ashley G!
Anthony Cuney
Amazing place to have corrective lens surgery. Everyone here was very friendly when I arrived for my surgery day. Dr. January and his staff took very good care of me before and after the procedure was complete. They were very detailed and informative about the healing process and steps for it. I would reccomend Joffe Medicenter for your corrective eye surgery when you choose to do it. You won't be disappointed
Robert H.
What a great experience it has been. I researched LASIK and found Joffe based on the reviews. I was not let down. The office is very professional and friendly. I asked a lot of questions and they were all answered in a honest straight forward way. I chose the Monovision procedure because I am a teacher and had to have different glasses for looking at papers, another for the computer and another to see the kids. Now I won't need any of those glasses. I am beyond excited. I just finished my followup consultation and everything went great! My vision will continue to improve in the following days and I am already excited that I didn't have to search for the right glasses this morning for anything! I certainly wish I would've done it earlier! All the doctors were personable and easy to talk to. The staff is great! I would recommend to anyone! The price is the total for the procedure and all the follow-ups so there are no hidden costs. Just a great experience from beginning to end. Thank you to everyone at Joffe!! I'm so excited!!
Fee C.
It was awesome! I went in to have the Lasik done and the staff was super nice and extremely helpful. They made me feel comfortable and everything went very well! I’m so grateful I had it done. My new motto now is: Better to see you with my dear! 🐺 …
CINDY Martínez
Everyone at Joffe was so awesome and great! Especially Dr. Su, she is so sweet! And during the procedure I was nervous and someone held my hand and made me feel a lot better! I can see 20/20 now and I used to be pretty much blind without my contacts or glasses! Recommend this place to anyone considering LASIK surgery!
stacy brennan
I cannot say enough good things about this place. It hasn't even been 24 hours and I have 20/20 vision. From the front desk to the physician it was on point service. You feel like family there and you can tell 100% genuine. They love what they do. Ingrid, the nurse during the procedure and Dr.Merkel were top notch. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you all again. You've changed my life!!
Suhail Ali
First visit I went in for my initial consultation and everyone was super helpful and comforting making sure I was at the best of the best in this category. They did seem a little pushy into getting the procedure done asap during my initial consultation but I didn’t give in too much as this type of procedure often times needs some thought if not twice. Went home thought about it a couple days and scheduled my procedure date. Here I am 3 days after my procedure and I have to say...great choice into doing lasik and even better having it done at Joffe. Just have to make sure to continuously use the eye drops per doctors discretion and you’ll have perfect eyes. Definitely no more headache with contact lenses or glasses. I definitely without hesitation recommend Joffe to anyone looking for lasik.
Protx
Got my consultation done back in October of 2017. Called and was still within the time period to do my surgery. Its 03/09/18 and i got my surgery done yesterday. Im already seeing 20/20 and besides the minor pains i had yesterday after the surgery (which are completely normal) i feel perfectly fine in just 24hrs. I highly recommend this company for lasik treatment. The joffe staff is very friendly and understanding. The financing is very affordable and easy to apply for. They treat all of their customers with more than a five star rating quality and are overall great people to do business with. Ive already recommended treatment to many friends and family. I do not regret this decision one bit. Now i can live my life without the hassle of glasses or contacts. Thanks to the entire joffe staff for the hospitality and excellent work. If you are looking to get lasik done this is the place to go!
Britney McGarity
At first I was skeptical because this was going to change my EYES. As I went in, everyone made me feel extremely comfortable. Meeting the surgeon was the icing on the cake. Dr. Merkley was so comforting and truly awesome to be with. My surgery was only minutes long and I’ve had no issues. My eyesight was -5.75 and I can see 20/20 now. I recommend Joffe to anyone who is considering lasik! It’s changed my life completely.
Jessie (Ay Ya)
I was very cautious coming to do lasik, but meeting the staff's helpful and positive attitude made my time there less stressful. For my consult, Roxy was super helpful and supportive throughout all of it and Yessi was very helpful helping me find a payment plan and answering my questions. Dr. January was very funny and very calming on the day of mu surgery! He's a wonderful doctor! I would definitely recommend people to come to Joffe!
Mian Sajjad
I had the procedure yesterday. Very friendly and comforting staff! The anticipation and feeling of not knowing got to me before I went into the surgery room; however, the procedure was so quick and easy that I felt comfortable the whole time, which I didn't think would happen. I can already see very clearly; however, I will update in a few months or so!
magda monter
I really like this place, they made me feel really comfortable. They were very nice to me from the moment I came through the door. All the staff is professional and the doctors were all very nice. I would recommend this place to everyone. The surgery was very fast and easy. I came in for surgery on a Saturday and I went back to work on the following Monday with no problems.
Medi Smith
Wonderful experience at Joffe. The staff were very competent and extremely patient. I was very anxious about the surgery initially however, it has been the best decision. After 40 years of wearing glasses I now have close to 20/20 vision. I would not hesitate in recommending Joffe for Lasik surgery.
Mark Buchmann
The staff here was fantastic and did a great job of preparing me for my LASIK procedure. The doctors were efficient and also alleviated my concerns. I would not hesitate to recommend Joffe for friends and family to get LASIK.
Chris Landeros
Today I had surgery At 8am.Went home slept for 4 hrs. Went back to have the post surgery check up and I can already see better than I did with contact lenses. All this in the same day. I really recommend doing early morning so you have everything done that day. Last but not least, the staff goes above and beyond to make the experience as smooth as possible. Will recommend to all friends and family.
Robert Bauters
I just went through the procedure 8 hours ago! Everything went well. Doctors and staff were very informative along the way. Highly recommended! Just give yourself a day or two after to rest up and recover. My eyes are still healing but the results are fantastic.
Aminda Chan
Loved the professionalism of the staff! They were so inviting, friendly, and made me super comfortable.I can not stress enough of how comfortable everything was! Thanks! The procedure was a breeze and I can now throw out those dingy glasses I dreaded for so long! Thanks to the Joffe staff, I've made probably one of the best decisions in my life!
Neal Majmudar
When I was ready to get LASIK, I went to all the main places in Houston and did thorough research. In the end, Joffe was the best choice! Not only was the price extremely competitive, but the staff and facility are top notch. They really care about their patients and you don't feel like just a number. I am glad I made the decision to go to Joffe. They did a great job and I would recommend this place to anyone!
Caitlin Davis
Boyfriend just got his Lasik eye surgery done! And he can finally see with 20/15 vision which is amazing!! Definitely recommend, ever since the first visit we have felt so welcomed by everyone! Great results!
Katie Pittenger
I had such a great experience here! All of the staff and the dr were so friendly and made me feel so comfortable. They talked me through the entire procedure while they did it and it was so quick! I just tested 20/15 3 days after surgery!
Rosely Toledo
I had my lasik procedure done on 12/30/19 and I can’t thank them enough for this life changing experience. When I arrived for my lasik evaluation the front staff was very courteous and I did not wait long at all. Once in the back I was greeted by Ashley. She was wonderful at explaining absolutely every step of the way to me. She shared her own lasik experience done at Joffe and just made me feel at ease. Her personality and knowledge of the procedure really make her a great asset to the team. Fast forward to the day of the procedure and I was greeted by Shay. He moved me along through the process without delay and was a joy to be around. I arrived with my two sisters for support and they were treated just as kindly as I was. Shay made sure that every question I had or thought I had was not left unanswered. I then met Dr.January shortly before my procedure was set to begin and he was one of a kind. His sense of humor I immediately felt at ease once he began explaining step by step what he would do and how quick it would be. Ready or not it was go time and throughout the entire procedure Ashley and Dr.January explained what was happening and made for a comforting environment. He is also notorious for playing eclectic music during the procedure which serves as great distraction. Ashley truly is the lasik whisperer because she was able to keep me calm the entire time the surgery was going on. Once done they had me take a picture with Dr.January and took one last look at my eyes to make sure everything went fine. The entire experience at Joffe was amazing and I am still in disbelief at how well I can see after the procedure. Ashley,Dr.January, and Shay thank you so much for treating me so kindly and making me feel at ease. I will be sending everyone I know to Joffe

It was a smooth process and the people there are very nice. They even gave me the prescription I needed when I failed to have it with me on the day of surgery. They are also very flexible payment plan wise and not a costly as other laser eye places. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to get their eyes fixed.
Asher Akhter
All the employees were very nice and helpful with all my questions.
Consultation was very thorough. They ran measures in my eyes in many different ways. In better ways than normal eye doctors who prescribe contacts and glasses do.
I was in and out of the surgery room in about an hour. The actual surgery took like 15-20min.
I received no pain during surgery but the suction cup pressure on my left eye made my brain perceive it as pain as someone pushing my eyes in or something (when it was first done in my right eye I didn't feel much; I was told it was the way the brain anticipated the suction cup that made it feel that way). The only pain I received (which is the worst part) is the burning pain in my eyes for 3 hours like 30min after the surgery, which is a very normal side effect.
Pretty happy with my results. I went here because on Yelp they had the top 3-5 ratings for Lasik. I researched quite a few Lasik centers and the best value (good price and good quality) seemed to be at Joffe without insurance.
An Pham
awesome place! the staff is very friendly and helpful, Dr Su is great, and very convenient hours. the procedure is pain free, I recommend no sedation if you are not anxious. just a lot of pressure but awesome experience. the only draw back was that it was cheap (too good to be true?) and I didn't meet the LASIK doctor until the day of procedure (he's a good guy by the way). love my 20/20 vision
PABLO CUETO
I had an amazing experience here with the facility! The staff is incredibly nice and patient. I was super anxious and scared about the process, yet it was quick and less scary than I made it out to be. It’s been less than 24 hours since my procedure and I have 20/15 vision!! I am loving the freedom of seeing without the border of my glasses. Can’t recommend them enough!!! :)
Daphne Jones
From beginning to end the process went smoothly and everyone was so helpful. The staff are all so friendly and warm. The massage chairs are added plus and Dr. January is fantastic. I only regret not doing it sooner. I'm 20/15 baby!!! 😜 Kissing by glasses goodbye! …
Jacqueline Luplow
The entire staff is friendly and helpful. All my questions were answered, pros and cons discussed, as well as financial options. My after care was also top notch. Everything went smoothly and I am so glad I chose to have my surgery here!
Ruthi Fer (ruthif)
I had a great experience at Joffe. Everyone has been very nice and helpful, they understand that lasik is a big deal for each individual, even though they do it on a regular basis. They explained every single detail and someone was walking me though the procedure all the way and that made me feel calm and secure. The operation lasted only like 10 minutes and the recovery was also very fast. The next morning I couldn't believe the results. I see perfectly and it feels like a new world. It was totally worth it!
cec bloa
My experience at Joffe was excellent. All docs and staff are highly professional and friendly. Especially Ms. Emily Su. She is beautiful, smart, and funny. Gives great hugs too. She turned out to be even more beautiful after my eyes were fixed. I highly recommend. 5 stars and an eye.
Jim Husman (v0id)
Went in for a consultation and qualified for all laser LASIK. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable answered all my questions. Came back the next week for my easy and smooth procedure, now I have 20/15 vision in 24hours!!! Amazing place you won't regret it!
Tamour Ali
I highly recommend joffe medicenter! They did a very great job with my surgery. Made my vision much better than before. I was wearing glasses for 20 years, until I finally got my surgery done from joffe medicenter. The staff was very professional and nice. If you need lasik surgery, come to joffe medicenter.
penny sisneros
Joffe Medicenter was amazing!!!!!! They are so professional and caring. I’ve been wanting to have lasik surgery for awhile but just didn’t feel comfortable enough with the procedure. Everyone at Joffe MediCenter made me feel comfortable from the first time I called to schedule my consultation. I scheduled my procedure for the week after my consultation and I can’t thank them enough. The day after my surgery I was able to see things that I couldn’t see before without my glasses. If you are considering lasik surgery, I would strongly recommend Joffe MediCenter.
Aaron Amador
This has been absolutely amazing. Everyone on the staff was friendly and professional and the process was quick and easy. My vision was 20/15 the same day of the procedure and the recovery has gone extremely well. I should have done this a while ago.
Chanice Johnson
Super friendly staff that work with you and constantly make sure you're comfortable the whole way through. The procedure is fast and easy with no pain and minimal discomfort. Results are immediate after a few hours nap which they recommend in order to get over the worst of what little discomfort there is after the procedure. They explain everything, the procedure, what to expext, and the after care in detail. I personally went from not being able to see the big E on eye charts to having better than 20/20 in a few hours
Patricia Seybold
Why didn’t I do this sooner? The entire procedure took 13 minutes, and less than 24 hrs later, I’m writing this review without glasses. MD more than knowledgeable, with years of experience. Office staff was wonderful too. I felt I was in good hands throughout the process.
Jenny Tieu
Joffe Medical has been nothing short of amazing! Made me feel very comfortable about the process and everyone has been sweet and helpful. They were also the most affordable of all the other centers I checked out. Would highly recommend! Also if you use my name (Jenny Tieu) as a referral you’ll get $50 off your procedure!
David Smiley
Was referred to this center by a friend from work. Got my prescreen done and everyone was extremely nice and helpful. A couple weeks later I went in and 10 minutes late the procedure was done. Wow! I woke up the next morning and had perfect vision. After wearing glasses for years I am more than pleased with my news eyes and all the people who work at Joffe. Thank you so much!
Timothy Chiang
Everyone was very nice and welcoming, and almost all of the workers had gone through the lasik or PRK procedure themselves so they were able to give their own experiences with the operation. The operation itself lasted about 10 to 15 minutes but nothing felt rushed or stressed so I wasn't that nervous or worried. Great place and service.
Dilip V
My wife had our lasik done at Joffe Medic center and the experience was great. Doctors & nurses answered all our questions and made her comfortable before the procedure. And we needed to go back immediately for quick check up right after the procedure and they were able to accomodate us quickly.
Blake Adams
Why did I wait so long to do this?! Had my surgery yesterday afternoon, and at my follow up today I'm reading 20/15!! Such a crazy experience. Surgery lasted about 10 minutes, once the numbing drops wore off it was quite uncomfortable but I slept it off and woke up seeing clear. Dr. January was awesome, cracking jokes and playing 70s rock during the procedure was definitely a plus. Finally done with contacts after wearing them for 15+ years, highly recommend if you're on the fence, truly life changing!
M Gerstle
The staff here is outstanding! They really have the program figured out. Dr. Sure is a pure joy to be around. And Dr. Merkley seems to really care about his patients. Wish I had done this year's ago. Yesterday I had 20/40 vision, today I have 20/20. And I am told it should get better. Thank you Joffe Medicenter!
Laura Peavy
This was such a great experience! The office staff, doctors, and assistants were so knowledgeable and helped ease any concerns I had about the lasik procedure. I LOVED Dr. January! The actual procedure was a breeze, and my eyesight was almost perfect 12 hours after it was done. HIGHLY recommend to anyone! THANKS JOFFE!!
Samantha Pena
Definitely worth the time and money. As of the next day I was able to see 20/20 almost 20/15, it truly is amazing. I love being able to wake up in the morning and not have to scrabble for my glasses. I definitely won’t miss wearing my contacts either!!!! Thank you Joffe!!!
Justin Mannat
I've been putting off lasik for years, even after both my sister and mom went to Joffe and exclaimed how it has changed their lives! I'm at avid contact and glasses user but I finally said yes and went through with lasik at Joffe and couldn't be happier about my decision! My sister said it was one of the best purchases shes ever made and I stand by her statement! the process was thorough yet quick, I had my consultation exam and had my surgery two weeks later! I even could have done it that same day if I want too but decided to just wait. The surgery itself was super fast, about 5 minutes, and I was able to see immediately afterwards with great vision. If you are on the fence about lasik, I recommend you come here to Joffe. They are hands down one of the most professional eye centers in Houston and they will make this whole process a breeze!
MAYA ADRIAN
We are very satisfied with Doctor Joffe and his staff, My husband didn't want to do the surgery at first but then after the staff talked to him and made him feel comfortable and started to explain how the procedure was he was good to go. We were amazed of how fast the surgery went and the results were great. We definitely recommend Joffe Medicenter to anyone.
Natasha
I was very nervous at first. All of the Joffe staff were super welcoming. I was seeing better within minutes and my sight got sharper and sharper as time passed. I wish I'd got Lasik done years ago. Definitely the place to go.
Vi Tran
I can see! Just two days and I’m already seeing 20/15! My prescription before was at -6.75 with glasses but now I can see perfectly clear. The staff here is very friendly and the surgery was pretty quick too. I’m glad I came here :)
Jennifer Brenda
I just had my Lasik done yesterday with Joffee Medi Center and the procedure went great. In less than 15 minutes I was able to see without glasses. :) The staff and doctor were really friendly and they made me feel very comfortable. Im glad i took this decision!! Today is the second day & I feel good and also my vision is wonderful!
Christine Hau
Staff is super friendly! Loved my results! After the procedure, I took a 6 hour nap and woke up and was able to see! It’s nice to just wake up and be able to see! Come to Joffe, definitely worth it!
Joseph Barnett
I just had LASIK at Joffe on 4/24/19. The experience and results were nothing but PERFECT. Dr. January, Dr. K, Ashley, and the entire team were professional, highly skilled, and incredibly kind. After wearing glasses since 3rd grade I can now see 20-15! Highly recommended!
Graceful Grace
I had the best experience at Joffe! From the minute you walk in the door they make you feel comfortable, and answer all your questions. My only complaint is that I didn't come here years ago. Everyone is great, and they made me feel at ease. If you are thinking about getting your eyes done, don't look any further because this is the place!!
Diana Rocha
I came in on a Saturday morning and had my procedure at 10 am and was out by 12. The actual procedure only took about 12 minutes. I was so nervous but the nurses kept talking to me making sure i was calm . I would definitely recommend anyone to come here. I see waaayy better than i use to back in the 90's. So thankful for the great prices and experienced dr.
Jason Heartwell
Had my eyes done on Saturday and everything went great! Staff and Drs are super friendly and walked me through everything. Just had my eye exam and was able to read at 20/15 two days later and it will get better! I had the monovision done and its working great.
Elayne Gonzalez
Since the beginning Joffe LASIK staff members including Shai and Ashely R. were all very welcoming, friendly, and caring! ❤️ I LOVED the atmosphere and would HIGHLY recommend all of my family members and friends to get LASIK here!!! I’m barely waking up and can already see clear!!! 😬Dr.Merkley did my surgery and was AWESOME!! If you need a referral you can use me to save yourself some coin my name is Elayne Gonzalez and I’m happy to say Joffe MediCenter changed my life! Wished I could have done this sooner!!
Victor Vazquez
What can I say I had a great experience at Joffe Medicenter! The Dr.'s were great and the staff was awesome to work with. They made this whole experience a very easy and comfortable process. The office is very clean and presentable. I strongly recommended this office to anyone who is considering Lasik. Thanks Joffe team!
Jesse Castillo
The doctor's and staff are great! They explained everything in detail, answered all of my questions, even the ones I asked repeatedly, with no issues. The day of the procedure I was very nervous but Dr. Su was awesome at helping me get ready for the procedure. Dr. January talked me through everything he was doing, letting me know how I was doing, and this helped calm me down. Again, everyone there was great. I am referring all of my friends to them!
Samantha Cunningham
I have had a longer than normal relationship with the staff at Joffe and they are amazing! I got my first procedure done last year in February 2016 but unfortunately my eyes did not heal as they should and I still needed a small correction. I was moving out of the country only 3 months after my first procedure and they couldn't do my enhancement so quickly afterwards. While I was in Denmark, Dr. Su was so helpful and communicative to let me know exactly what I needed to get from my eye doctors in order to keep them on track with how my eyes were doing. It would have been very easy for any company to write me off and not be as helpful but they were AMAZING! I just got my enhancement (which is free within 18 months of your procedure). It was quick and simple and most importantly they took all the necessary precautions to make sure my eyes were ready for the enhancement so I felt comfortable going back under. As for the actual procedure it is so quick and simple and I remember the nurse holding my hand the first time around because I was so nervous. They are vey professional, with very competitive prices. I feel like they are my family (I literally hugged Dr. Su when I saw her after all our emailing back and forth). They will do anything they can to make sure you feel comfortable and welcome!
Robert G
Great place to get LASIK. Staff has been very welcoming and helpful. The doctor even sang while the procedure was going on so I felt more comfortable! I was able to walk out painless and a day later, I am feeling great and can see pretty well!
Paul Sullivan
I had Lasik done on a Friday afternoon. The team was excellent at answering all my questions and made sure to make the procedure quick and painless. The doctors, assistants, and staff at Joffe are extremely professional and will answer any and all questions. I would highly recommend them to anyone seeking corrective Lasik.
Midhat Patel
If you're thinking about LASIK, stop thinking and come here! It was as painless and effortless as it could possibly be. I came for a free evaluation and had my surgery 10 days later. I woke up the next day seeing clearly and not reaching for my glasses for the first time in 15 years. Joffe was a great place to do it and I felt comfortable the whole time, including my first follow up. If you have any questions or concerns reach out to me and I'd be happy to help!
Viviana Velarde
Awesome experience!!! The kindest staff, quick and painless procedure. They walked thoroughly through everything with me and made it an unforgettable, amazing experience. I definitely recommend Joffe Medicenter to anyone who needs or wants Lasik. My vision feels unreal and keeps improving.
Johanna
Had lasik 2 weeks ago and so happy I did. The first few hours were the most uncomfortable but after a good nights rest, I was back to normal and no discomfort! The staff and dr.s were extremely knowledgeable and professional. They took their time and put my mind at ease with their thorough responses! I would highly recommend them to anyone who is considering Lasik, the only thing you regret is not having had the procedure sooner!
Alex Miller
The Lasik preceedure when very smoothly. The staff is excellent and friendly. They do a great job of helping you feel at ease during the process. The procedure itself is uncomfortable at times but not painful. Each eye took maybe 45 seconds. I was seeing better immediately after. The day after I was seeing better than before even with my glasses.
Paola Cortez
Great service! Nice staff! Good job! I took my mom to get lasik and she feels great! We went for a follow up the next day and my mom asked a lot of questions and they were nice and patient enough to answer all of them. Really recommend getting your lasik done here!
Samara Perez
It’s been 7 years since I got my LASIK at Joffe and I thank my mom for bringing me. It was the best decision ever. I referred a friend to get hers done here and she loved it! Now it’s my mom’s turn.
Thien Dinh
The staff is very friendly and helpful and the LASIK procedure went smoothly. I was able to see without my glasses the same night as the operation! Vision isn't crisp yet as its only been two days but I am already seeing 20/20.
Arian Tahzib
From -4.00 on both eyes with astigmatism to a perfect 20/20 in 24 hours. I couldn’t see far before and Symptoms after procedures are completely normal and you just have to be patient and do your eye drops on time which is easy. Instead of Xanax, I brought beer instead which worked perfectly so that should save you some money there. Use my name for an extra 50 dollars off for referral if you would like. Awesome friendly staff, and great doctors (both amazing and experienced). 4.9 reviews speaks for itself. If your patient and lucky, you can also ask for promotions during various times and get sweet discounts and deals to get it done. God Bless.
Adriana Hernandez
I had my LASIK surgery done on March 2, 2018. Best experience ever!!!!!!
The staff members are super nice and make you feel comfortable. Dr. Merkley did a great job explaining the procedure and care. Got out of surgery around 10am and by 4pm i was seen clear and no pain. I was light sensitive but no complications at all! Im writting this review the day after my surgery and i am so happy i made the decision to do LASIK Surgery at Joffe Medicenter.
Van Nguyen
This place is awesome. The staffs are Super friendly and nice. The procedure itself was quick and simple. I had my done yesterday 1/25/2017 and did not experience any pain or discomfort at all. Ashley G was knowledgeable when explaining the post procedure process. I would definitely recommend this place for Lasik procedure.
David Tran
I have been thinking about getting lasik for a while and my gf referred me to Joffe. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by the friendly staff members and they made sure that my whole entire experience was awesome. They answered all of my questions and made sure that I was comfortable throughout the entire procedure. The procedure was painless and I regret not getting it done sooner :)
Cathryn Dosie
I absolutely love Joffe Medicenter. The staff is friendly, the service is great and the doctor on staff is amazing. Sometimes it's a little hard to get in touch with someone during office hours, but it doesn't happen often. So glad I chose Joffe for my Lasik Surgery. I would recommend them to anyone.

I was at a -5 with an astigmatism in both eyes and have worn glasses/ contacts basically all of my life! I was nervous I wouldn't be a candidate for Lasik but the staff were thorough in their exams and deemed that I was in fact a good candidate for Lasik. Woohoo. Moving on to the procedure.
During the procedure, I did feel some pressure and obviously felt the eye opener things being put into my eyes, but aside from that, the laser and procedure itself was painless. Your vision goes away (I know that sounds scary but I rather have that than be able to see what's going on). It was literally less than 15 minutes too. On the ride home, I did feel even more pressure and slight burning in my eyes, but someone just sliced my eyeballs open, so I couldn't imagine it being all the way painless.
All in all, I'm happy I had the procedure done at Joffe with Dr. January. I even price compared between a few places and Joffe was slightly more expensive (could have gotten it cheaper with my insurance discount somewhere else) but I don't regret my decision. Dr. January had a lot of energy and managed to make me laugh even though I was a little nervous. The staff was attentive while I was there and everyone was really professional.
I just left my follow-up appointment (it's been roughly 48 hours since my procedure) and although I am still seeing a liiiiiiiittle blurry, I am seeing 20/15! (I also drove to Joffe by myself, which is something I could NOT have done without proper eye wear before). I'm super happy with my results so far; I can't wait to be properly healed!
If you're considering Joffe, at least go in and check it out. So sappy, but they've legit changed my life, and they can change yours too!

The staff here is absolutely amazing! They make you feel so comfortable and answer any questions you have. The surgery was a breeze, and I could tell that my vision was already better only seconds after!
Vida Fisher
Best thing i have done for myself is get Lasik! And the guys at Joffee truly made my experience a great one! Highly recommended if you're looking to get your vision corrected! Dr Merkley and staff are super awesome, knowledgeable and warm! Thank you for my new eyes!
Shawna Berger
This is the most amazing place! The staff is so warm and friendly and makes you feel so comfortable in a situation that for most is very scary. I must say that I was the patient that saw "Final Destination" and was horrified at the thought of a laser anywhere near my eye. I must have asked 10 times for more drops to be sure my eye was numb lol. Did they get impatient with me? ABSOLUTELY NOT! We somehow ended up laughing in the middle of the procedure. I cannot recommend Joffe enough. You can get LASIK anywhere these days but you can never match the quality of their staff and care. If you are even considering correcting your vision....make the right choice and come here!
Noreen Ali
Everyone in the office is so kind. Everyone I met was super courteous and the conversations were great! They like to get to know who you are which I love. They also explained everything about the procedure to me well and what I need to do after the procedure as well.
Jared Schaefer
Highly recommended- went from a -9 prescription to having 20/15 vision when I woke up the next morning!
I first want to put out there that I had a -9 prescription with my contacts and glasses before having lasik done at Joffe. My vision was so bad to the extent that I was worried that I wouldn't be a good candidate to have lasik at all. I was practically blind y'all.
I'm a research-before-I-do-anything guy, and after quite a bit of research I chose to go with Joffe Medicenter Lasik. Upon arrival at the office for the free consultation to make sure I was a good lasik candidate, everything looked clean, new, and well decorated/designed throughout the facility. Also every employee was extremely charismatic, friendly, and knowledgeable about the whole lasik process. I was taken through to do a little mini-tour of the office during my consultation by Sabrina and I was pleased to see that my first impression of the waiting area was telling of the rest of the office as it was all very clean, new, and had a comfortable feel to it all. Sabrina was awesome. After the initial consultation (which was thorough, but still free) I was told I was, in fact, a good candidate for lasik despite my terribly strong prescription!
At my request, I was scheduled to have the procedure done the day before Thanksgiving- two days after my consultation, with my follow-up appointment on Thanksgiving Day. Needless to say Joffe is very flexible to work with you and your schedule.
The day of the procedure was very smooth. I was brought back for one more look at my eyes/prescription, given the numbing drops and relaxation medication, got my massage in one of their massage chairs in the back, and I was good to go! I met Dr. January just before the procedure, and he went over my specific file while going over the exact game plan for my specific procedure- he is very charismatic and friendly as well. Then during the procedure I felt no pain, only pressure, and Dr. January and the techs talk you through the whole process which lasted about 10 minutes. After getting up I could IMMEDIATELY see without glasses or contacts! This was an amazing feeling to me because of how bad my vision has been my whole life leading up to this. I took a pic with Dr. January, thanked him and everyone in the office, and walked out with my shades on and eye drops in hand.
Immediately after the procedure was complete I was able to see, but with some significant cloudiness (which is understandable given the fact that your eyes just went through surgery). My eyes were definitely sensitive to light so those shades they give you will be your best friend immediately after, and they were fairly dry with the feeling you have if you slept in your contacts overnight. Once the numbing drops begin to wear off, you will feel some discomfort and some burning in your eyes. This is uncomfortable, but definitely bearable. To help with this, you will definitely want some Tylenol PM or something similar to take immediately after the procedure to help with the discomfort and to help you sleep the 4-5 hours that you need to sleep for your eyes to recover.
After sleeping the recommended number of hours, I woke up with no discomfort and could see even better! Still a little cloudy and dry, but everything was great other than that. I drove to my follow-up appointment the following morning to find confirm that everything is healing smoothly and to find out that I now have 20/15 vision!! This is better than 20/20! Definitely better results than I expected going in and completely an amazing experience for me coming from a -9 prescription.
I just want to thank Sabrina, Ashley, Dr. Su, Dr. January, and everyone else in that office for making this such a smooth and amazing experience for me! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!

The accommodations were very comfortable and all of the staff were extremely nice and very knowledgeable. The no interest financing option worked perfectly. The equipment is state of the art and the location was very convenient. I wouldn’t think of going anywhere else.
Michael Caggiano
I loved this place! The doctors and assistants are extremely nice! I could not of asked for a better experience, I would recommend to anyone in a heart beat. Appointments were always on time and very thorough. They are willing to answer any question you throw at them and very patient. They are very open and honest about the surgery and how qualified you are to get Lasik. I have a couple of friends who used their service and felt the same way. I am recommending my family members as well. Could't have ask for more as I am seeing perfectly and loving every moment of it. Just get a free consultation and you will fall in love with it from that moment forward. Surgery was prompt and on time, took all of 10 mins, and your friend or family member is allowed to watch the surgery through the clear glass window and monitors. The environment is just peaceful and everyone is just so nice, worth going trust me!
Julie Shireman
So excited. The staff here is so great and Ashley G, and Dr. Su really make you feel like family. Such a great place to plan your LASIK procedure. Let's not forget the massage chairs!
Claritza Vasquez-Morales
My wife and I drove 5 and a half hours to get my Lasik treatment done at Joffe MediCenter. It was the best decision I've ever made!! They are all so amazing, friendly, and they explained everything thoroughly! Dr. January, you are the best!! Dr. Tucker, Ashley G., Roxy, and Yessica you all are amazing!! I can't thank you all enough. If you are thinking of getting Lasik, look no further and come here!! You won't regret it!
j “conssuck” l
My girlfriend had her eyes done with Joffe about a year and a half ago. We're very active and we love to travel so the convenience that LASIK has brought to her life has been tremendous. The entire process was seamless. She had her consultation done, a few days later she had the surgery, the next day she saw better than she had in over 20 years. AMAZING! Thank you Joffe for making such a life-changing event so simple!
Jordan Whittaker
Initial consultation was easy and informative. After determining I was a candidate they scheduled me for the following week with Dr. Merkeley. He was awesome day of and everything went smoothly. Had 20/20 vision next day at my follow up after being over 20/400!
Irazema Alexander
3 years ago I decided to do lasik with my extra FSA money. Well I only did one eye. I was supposed to come back in January and do the other eye. I got pregnant and had to wait till after the baby was born. Of course I was going to return to Joffe. Where else would I go? Can you believe some of the doctors remembered me? The staff here is amazing! They hire the best people to work here. You get the best service. Now you want to ask me how is your vision? Better than 20/20!!! 20/15!!!! It’s so great I think I can see through walls. No I’m just kidding about see through walls. However, it is 20/15! When in surgery I got a little nervous. One do the nurses held my shoulder. When you are in a cold surgery room that small gesture means so much. The doctor that did my follow up visit remembered my name and hugged me when she saw me. I sort of wish I had another reason to come back. Just because they are so awesome. I originally came because my friend had his lasik done here.
I got a small discount for using his name. You can also use my name and get a discount. Tell them “Irazema Alexander” sent you. They are very competitive in pricing and are amazing!
Andrew Pham
After hearing about them on the radio for years . I decided to give them a shot . I hate going to then doctors and hated wearing glasses . I had one good eye at 20/20 and one at -2.5. I went in for their 90 min free consultation and they were professional and friendly . Luckily for me I only needed one eye. They had a next day appointment that saved me an extra 200 so I went in . The procedure was 15 min once I got in the chair . I would definitely recommend . Mention the name Andrew pham to save 50$ off
David Gomez
The staff was very helpful and Ingrid was knowledgeable made me feel comfortable through the whole procedure. After using glasses all my life and not able to see at night, it feels incredible able to see without having to wear my glasses. I do not regret my decision on getting lasik surgery. Highly recommend joffe medicenter.
Jess Walcik
My experience with Joffe was great from start to finish. The staff was super informative, and answered most of my questions before I could even ask them. I am seeing better than I have in years just 12 hours after my surgery. I recommend Joffe to anyone interested in Lasik, though I don't recommend watching someone else's procedure before your own. It's much easier to go through than to watch someone else!
Maria Amaro
I Thank Dr. Merkley for my surgery, I am now able to see better and with out glasses. I’m glad I don’t have to wear glasses again!! I can see perfectly fine! The surgery was great better than I expected! Everyone was great!
Thank you Joffe MediCenter team y’all are the greatest!!!!!!!!!!
Jay Pugh
The staff at Joffe have been amazing from the first visit to follow up exams. They have been clear on expectations and what to expect while at the same time providing different options. It has been amazing not having to worry about contacts and glasses. I would recommend Joffe to anyone looking at LASIK.
Claudia Hernandez
Both my daughter and son has had treatment here at Joffe! Now it's my turn!! I'm super excited! I recommend this place!! Best place to have lasik done! Ashley G, was very helpful!! As well as all the staff!! Great office!! They have financing options!! And it definitely worked with my budget!!
Norson Fernandez
I had a wonderful experience with Joffe MediCenter! The staff was friendly and courteous. Dr. Emily Su was very warm and excited for me in getting Lasik. Dr. Merkley was also very nice and my procedure was done in ten minutes. Affordable, efficient and best care! I highly recommend!
Nosheen Q
I loved my experience at Joffe Medicenter and highly recommend it for anyone considering Lasik. I have really bad vision + astigmatism and thought that I would never be a candidate for lasik. Also, like most people I was hesitant about any elective procedure involving my eyes/vision. Joffe changed all that! The entire staff is professional and very friendly - they answered all my questions and made me feel much more comfortable and at ease. My consult was extremely thorough (with a variety of different tests/measurements) and gave me confidence in moving forward with the specific lasik that would work best for my eyes. Loved Dr January - he is awesome!! I felt extremely confident under his care and his friendliness & approach disappaited any nervousness on my part on the day of surgery. From start to finish, it was evident that entire team was dedicated go my care and well being. My results have been great so far - never thought I could see this clearlt and I know it will only get better. Thanks to everyone at Joffe!
Michelle Trinh
I was recommended to Joffe by my cousin who had her eyes done the month before mines and let me tell you, DO IT!!! If your nervous about lasik, don’t be because Joffe has the most amazing staff! Everyone is really nice and welcoming. They made sure I understood the procedure and aftercare. The procedure itself was less than 10 mins and I hardly remember what happened during. The part I’m most excited about is that I can see clearly when I open my eyes in the morning! It’s life changing!!!
Flight21eighteen
I just had my LASIK surgery and I can now see 20/15 in both eyes. This is a life changing experience for me because I’ve been wearing glasses since I was 3 years old. Dr. January was amazing, had a wonderful personality, and explained everything to my understanding. The staff was also amazing, super nice, and knowledgeable as well. I’ve already recommended them to all my other friends and family members who could benefit from LASIK. Thanks a ton Joffee Medicenter
Amanda Michelle
Joffee staff were so friendly and helpful. Lasik was a quick easy procedure (although i was a uncomfortable afterwards- they recommended a 3-4hr nap after the procedure for good reason). The next day I was back to normal and I cannot believe my vision! I went from 20/400 to 20/15. The world is BEAUTIFUL.
Sohaib Yusuf
I went to Joffe for PRK on my right eye. The staff is very professional and took the time to answer my questions before scheduling the surgery. I was in and out really fast.
The issue I had was that the very first night the bandage contact in my eye came out and it felt like my eye got hit by the full force of the dust storm. It was after hours and my wife called the after hours number for the clinic. One of the doctors took the time to direct me to a facility and met me at the facility and then replaced the bandage. To me that is going above and beyond.
My eye has recovered really well and my vision is improving. I wish I had done my Lasik with Joffe so I wouldn't to worry about things like PRK but they got the job done. Highly recommended.
José Augusto Montiel Urribarri
Had LASIK performed at Joffe Medicenter. I was a bit nervous but the staff was incredibly supportive and soothing throughout the whole procedure. Just had a bit of discomfort afterwards but after a nap I was back on my feet and my sight had already improved a lot. Highly recommended.
Diego Mayorga
I was a little hesitant at first about letting people poke around my eyeball, but when after meeting the incredibly nice staff and my awesome doctor, they made me feel super comfortable. This place is great and I would recommend it to anyone and everyone. If you’d like to use a referral code for a couple bucks off, use Diego M.
patricia Milbourn
The team here is amazing. From the front desk all the way up to surgery and follow up. The doctor answered all my questions. right before the procedure I was so nervous but never mentioned it. During the procedure the surgical team was fantastic they walked me through every single step without me asking one question which made me so comfortable to know what was going on. I recommend this place 100%. Thank you all so much for the wonderful service received.
Alex Liu
I have been nearsighted ever since I started going to school. For over 20 years I have been behind those eyeglasses, and whenever I took a shower, went swimming, or even just came indoor in winter, the whole world was just all blur. So now you can imagine how I feel when these eyeglasses could finally be gone.
My wife helped me choose this place. Everyone here is very nice and helping. They definitely make things much easier here - I never thought the whole process could be this simple. Right now it's still the 1st week after the surgery (I had a PRK since my cornea was not thick enough for LASIK). The recovery process is faster than I expected. I may add more when I reach full recovery, but right now I am already sure I will recommend this place to my friends. Good job, Joffe!
Ana Roque
Their customer service is phenomenal, from my first visit to the day of my procedure they made me feel really comfortable. On the day of my procedure Shai made me feel at ease and helped answer all of my questions. I will highly recommend them! Keep up the great service!
Jolea Bryant Payne
My experience at Joffe Medicenter was GREAT! Everyone was very accommodating and friendly. They go the extra mile to make sure you're comfortable and understand everything that's going on. Highly recommend them to anyone considering Lasik.
Mrs. G.
Omg!!! This is so amazing to see the world without eye glasses. Just in few minutes you see this world in bright colors. Recommend this procedure and the place. Doctors make sure that you will get all information is needed, easy financing available, whole team very knowledgeable and friendly. Dr. Merkely is awesome, he visited me before treatment and introduced himself before he started the procedure. 100% vision and I love it.
Samuel Collette
Very friendly staff. Procedure was done earlier this morning. First few hours post procedure are pretty miserable, but I am 7 hours out now and feeling just fine. I am very pleased at this point. I can see things that were only possible with contacts/glasses. Would definitely recommend Joffe.
Cynthia Tracy
The service I received at Joffe was superb. The staff were knowledgeable and informative. They have efficient procedures and I was in and out of my surgery in no time. I had my surgery yesterday and I love my results so far.
EJG
The best place for LASIK in Houston guaranteed! Wonderful customer service, all of my questions and concerns where answered. The surgery was a breeze with the help of the medical staff and the surgeons. It only took them 30 minutes and now my vision is even more clearer than when I wore contacts and glasses!
K. Marie
This is a well-organized and efficient practice that delivers. The counseling appointment and evaluation for lasik was very thorough. They were very transparent about the process and expectations. On the day of surgery Dr. Merkley was responsible for performing my surgery. He worked with another colleague that kept me calm and literally talked me through the entire process. I found that to be extremely helpful. On my first post-op visit my vision was 20/15 so clearly I got what I was looking for! As it pertains to the initial recovery it was definitely a challenge for me. The first two hours I had non-ceasing burning and stinging in my eyes. This was actually worst than the procedure. It’s an expected outcome but I just want to mention it as a warning. My only major gripe is that I had broken capillaries/blood-shot eyes after the procedure. This can take up to two weeks to resolve and aesthetically it’s very unattractive. If this will be a concern to you I recommend blocking out sometime for this healing as well. The contract does mention “redness” but I think that’s not explicit enough as I interpreted it as generalized irritation of the conjunctiva. This was not my case. The redness was bright red blood specs in my eye. I expressed my concerns and a drug Lumify was recommended.
*************************************
Update: Lumify was ineffective at clearing my redness but I’m hoping it clears with time.
America Guzman
My experience was great. Since the moment I came in the door, I was greeted politely. Everyone has smiles in the office they make you feel great. I can see!!!! My prescription was really bad. For me this has been one of the best experience.
Van Tran
The staff here is great!! Shai was extremely accommodating and nice. My mom came here to get her vision corrected and she doesn’t really know English all too well so I came to translate and they allowed me to enter the rooms with her. It took only a day for her to get perfect vision again. I’m kind of sad that my vision is worse than hers, but I’ll be back to get my vision corrected here for sure.
Dayana Gonzalez
Going to Joffe and getting my lasik surgery was the best decision I've ever made. It was a quick and pain free procedure and now I see 20/20. the staff is great and they treat you like family, I would recommend this to anyone.
Christina McNeil
My experience here at Joffe's was GREAT!!! They are ALL very welcoming and caring. They are very friendly staff and willing to answer any question you have. They walk you through the whole procedure and what to expect before and after. I would Highly recommend this office to come and get your Lasik done at Joffe. They have great rates and the follow up appointments are included as well. Love this Place.
Araceli Doria
I don’t know where to begin. The staff is AMAZING and Dr. January too! I was so afraid to get LASIK but my brother and sister-in-law both had there lasik done with Dr. January and convinced me. I am so glad I finally did it! I am grateful to all the staff for making this experience great! The facility is beautiful and wait time is very short. I strongly recommend anyone considering LASIK to come to Joffe.
Hilda Gonzalez
I DID IT! I final got my Lasik done . Super super excited!! The staff are beyond friendly very helpful, will answer any questions or concerns you have! Dr. January OMG I loved him. I was very nervous/anxious he definitely put me at ease. RECOMMEND THIS PLACE ONE THOUSAND PERCENT!! My mom also got her lasik procedure done here 4 yrs ago. & she was also very pleased with this office.. reason why I came back to get mine done. Thinking of getting lasik done? COME HERE! Free consultation.
Dominique Hepburn
The Joffe Lasik team did a wonderful job in restoring my vision. Everyone was polite and eager to answer any questions I had. Going into the procedure I was a bit nervous, but was comforted by Dr. Merkley and his team. It’s been a little over twelve hours and my vision is already 20/20.
Lauren Morris
It's been 6 1/2 years since I had my lasik done there and my vision is still perfect! I highly recommend Joffee for the great prices and staff. My procedure was very quick and everything went well.
maria zayas
Alrighty, let’s see... haha ohhh? What do you know? I can now thanks to Joffe!!! 🤗 But, seriously here’s what I’ve got to say. Before visiting the Joffe office I was terrified about the idea of getting this procedure done. I mean how could I not be? I would freak myself out with videos that I found online, the idea that the procedure would be painful and scary since I was awake for it all, and then of course there was also the consideration that something could go wrong and that I’d possibly lose my eyesight. Upon arriving at Joffe I was greeted by Mr. pleasant Shai he was very kind from start to finish which helped me feel extremely comfortable and allowed me to forget that I was there to potentially schedule a scary procedure. After, having one of the tests completed we were then greeted by Dr.Su who is an immaculate specimen of a woman! She was very profesional and sweet! She further helped me feel extremely comfortable about the idea of really going through with the procedure. At the end of my free consultation I was provided with the great news that I was a good candidate for lasik and that I could have the procedure completed as soon as that same week. They made sure that all questions were answered prior to the procedure and they all were wonderful. Upon the procedure date I surprisingly felt no fear because I felt confident that I could trust a team like the one at Joffe. I took the Xanax and then woopty doo I went! About 30-45 mins after taking the medication I felt relaxed and when I was called into the room it only took 5-10 mins for both eyes and I was done. It ONLY took 5-10 mins to improve my life. If you’re considering lasik GO TO JOFFE! I’m so happy with my results and it’s all thanks to this amazing team!
Thank you all!!!
María
10/29 update: day3 after Lasik and I CAN SEE SO CLEAR & WITHOUT A SINGLE ISSUE.. the procedure took less than 10 minutes. Ashley was soothing and Dr. January was so positive.
The MD before getting in the OR (Dr Sue or Doe?) Was realistic in answering all my questions and that was what I needed before the procedure. I hope everything continues to go well! I am more than happy with the decision that I made!
For now I am giving them 3 stars for their kind staff, however, I felt RUSHED through the consultation. I asked about my dry eyes and the MD was not available to answer because there were only 2 doctors.They said yes I was qualified for the surgery and didnt guarantee how long I'd be without glassess which is understandable. Idk.. I'm nervous, but also looking forward to good results.
alma rodriguez
I liked the experience I had at Joffe MediCenter. The doctors and staff were great and it is the best thing I've ever done! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND coming here and having Lasik it will change your life.
Update:
Came in for my check up, nice to be able to see! Almost ready for graduation! I recommend yall coming in so you won't have to wear glasses anymore!
Bano Ali
I live in California, but traveled to Houston, TX to get my Lasik done at Joffe Medicenter, as recommended by a friend. My entire experience, from initial exam to procedure, and post op was excellent. Dr. Merkley is very skilled, and made me feel comfortable during the procedure. Dr. Su answered all my pre and post op questions, and was wonderful. I trust my care to Joffe and its doctors and highly recommend this clinic.
Bong Chon
I really enjoyed my experience at the Joffe Medicenter. They were very knowledgeable about answering my questions and concerns about the risks and procedure in a friendly manner. I went with the custom, all-laser lasik, and only experienced very little discomfort during the procedure. Since then, my recovery has been swift.
Before my surgery, I did a lot of shopping and comparisons for lasik, and I concluded that Joffe seemed to provide the most value. They were at least 20% cheaper than some of the other reputable places, yet still were using the latest technology and had strong consumer reviews. My experience so far further reinforced my belief that I made the right choice to go with Joffe.
I would do the whole process over again if I had to, and would recommend to others to at least consult with Joffe for their lasik.
Jilloialon White
My experience at joffe medi center was a very wonderful and life- changing experience. The staff was very helpful, polite. My favorite part about the whole thing is how truthful they were and accurate about the procedure. They really didn't sugar coat anything, and didn't scare me too much either! I would recommend them 100%. Just make sure you are able to follow their instructions carefully and you will be fine!
yesenia jacobo
Great experience! The staff were all very helpful and super nice. Everyone was well informed and knew what they were talking about. Very helpful with any questions i had and just the over all process was process was quick and not painful. Totally recomened it for anyone who is looking to get rid of their contacts or lenses!
Dee Rrr
Best Christmas present ever!!
The procedure was so much faster than I thought. The staff is great and the doctors are so nice everytime. I wouldn't trade this experience for anything in the world. To be able to finally see the world as it is and not have to reach out for my glasses every morning. No more glasses, no more contacts, no more hassle. Perfect vision =)
tonygriz
The staff is the most incredible assembled. My son had significant anxiety at the start, but the staff was super patient and made him feel safe and comfortable. Dr. January is a blessing!
Melissa Renteria
WOW!!! Best decision of my life! I CAN SEE CLEARLY! I can literally see better than 20/20. My vision is now 20/15 all thanks to the wonderful Doctors and staff at Joffe Medicenter in Houston. I literally shopped around and researched different Lasik offices for over a year. I wanted only the best to deal with my eyes. After a friend's recommendation and some thorough research on the office and doctors I made my mind up on Joffe. The entire process was extremely smooth. From my first visit till the 90-day check up. I am extremely satisfied with the outcome and the amount of attention the staff gave me. I don't regret this decision at all and would recommend Lasik at Joffe over any other place.
Robert
The staff at Joffe are great and sincere from the very start. Within two weeks of showing interest in Lasik, it was complete and I'm seeing 20/20. I am ecstatic. Better than I imagined. The staff is still 100% concerned and helpful after the procedure. I'd recommend Joffe to everyone that will listen to me. Great job to all at Joffe. Chanelle, Dr Su, Dr Murphy, everyone on the staff from reception to surgeons. God Bless.
Alexis Thomas
My experience at Joffe MediCenter was amazing. I wasn't able to get lasik, but instead they explained everything to me in great detail as to why I can't at the moment and referred me excellent eye doctor. I would recommend Joffe to everyone who is thinking about lasik. They will be honest and won't put your eyes at risk if they don't believe you are a candidate.
Kimberly Ha
Everyone is so sweet and answered all of my questions I had throughout the process. I especially appreciated the call the day before from Dr. January to check on me to see if I had any questions. The people with Dr. January during the procedure were so sweet ans talked me through and helped me stay calm. Now I can see thanks to the team at Joffe!
Rafika Momin
Great staff. Process was very smooth and efficient. They inform you of the procedure very well and make you feel comfortable. Very accommodating. I will most likely refer my friends and family to this place if they choose to get LASIK done.
khanh nguyen
I had my lasik on September 28th, 2018. After just a few hours, I noticed that I have a better vision right away. The procedure took 5mins and was not hurt at all! The staffs, specially Jessica and Dr. January were super cool and awesome. Highly recommended!
ASHLEY ABRAHAM
Awesome experience. Went in for a consultation on a Monday had the procedure that very Friday. Dr. Su and Dr. Mercley were very knowledgeable and friendly. Staff get big kudos from me. I will definitely refer all my friends and family. Woke feeling like I was born with 20/20 vision. Don't wait just do it. Best choice I ever made.
Darren Fountain
The staff is very friendly and will answer any questions! Dr. January is awesome and a very nice guy! I wish I would have done LASIK sooner! Eyes continue to get better every day! Thanks to the staff at Joffe MediCenter!
Hannah K
I got lasik here after a lot of research and reaching out to others who had come here in the past. My surgery was yesterday and it went great! Very smooth sailing, the only thing that was uncomfortable was the suction machine but that only lasts about 20 seconds. I came home and slept for 8 hours and everything seems to be great, I can see amazingly considering the surgery was only about 14 hours ago! I will update in the future, maybe a few months or a year from now.
Mention my name: Hannah Kleiber on the check in form for $50 off!!
Hollynu Nguyen
I went into get LASIK yesterday and today I have 20/15 vision. I am absolutely ecstatic. The procedure and recovery for day 1 was definitely an uncomfortable one, but very quick and worth. I am so thankful I was finally able to get LASIK done. I’ve had to wear glasses and contacts for 14 years and had -5.50/-5.75 vision with an astigmatism in both eyes so 20/15 vision now is a dream.
Eva Garza
I had a consultation on Tuesday and was able to get Lasik on Friday. The staff at Joffee are the best! They are so attentive to your needs and will answer any questions that you have about the procedure. During the surgery they let you know what is going on at all times which helps if you are nervous. I had Lasik yesterday morning and this morning I have 20/20 vision! No more glasses or contacts for me and that is so satisfying.

I have been wanting to have lasik done for 2 years but was just a little reluctant. The entire team at the Joffe medi-center made me feel at ease and explained the process to me before each step. It has now been one month since my surgery and my vision is 20/15 and improving. Now I ask. Why did I wait so long?
Vanessa Esparza
I had been struggling with glasses since I was a kid and always wanted Lasik. A friend told me about Joffe and how nice they were so I made my consultation. Shai was awesome! He answered all my questions and even dealt with my husbands jokes lol. He was so nice and sweet during the pre-op part and assured I was going to be okay even though I was freaking out and on the verge of tears. Dr. Merkley came in to talk with me as well and was awesome!! He assured me I’d do fine and explained how the lasik procedure worked in detail and assured nothing would be wrong if I blinked (biggest fear lol). During the procedure Yessi and Roxy were so sweet and talked with me during the procedure along with Dr. Merkley on the step by step process before anything was done. I’d definitely recommend Joffe to anyone who is desperate to get rid of those pesky glasses!! Definitely 5 stars!!!!

You are greeted by name, treated like a friend, an answer to every question and welcomed here. Dr. January was introduced to me as the cool uncle of the office and he lives up to it. You aren't treated like a face in the crowd here, you are treated like a person. They are upfront with everything, no surprise costs or change of plans without you being involved. If you are even thinking about it, go to Joffe and have a relaxing experience and know you are in good hands.
cristal trevino
They are saving my life right now. If you ever need eye surgery, this is the place, don't take a risk by going somewhere else. They get the job done and the staff are always very polite with you, I promise, they will take care of you. Dr. Merkley is the best!! Thank you Joffe MediCenter.
Adam Longlet
Great staff, efficient, and well organized! I felt very welcomed, and there was always someone available for any questions I had. The operation went very smoothly. In under 24 hrs I had both my initial consultation and the operation.
Camille Willis
Dr. Childs & Dr. Merkley are AWESOME!!! The entire staff at Joffe is incredible. They are very kind and patient with walking you through the process, what to expect, and any questions you have afterwards.
My procedure went VERY well and I was so amazed at how soon I was able to see afterwards. Prior to my eyes were at a -7 and -7.5, so I was quite skeptical as to what the results would be, but each day just keeps getting better and better.
Joffe also does a great job of welcoming guest. Both my Mom and husband attended my procedure. They were both very impressed with the first class service that they received as well.
I would recommend Joffe Medicenter 10x over!!! Thank you so much for allowing me to see the world with a completely new perspective!!
Lillie Randle
The doctors and staff at Joffe are exceptional. They made me feel comfortable and the process was quick and painless. I appreciate them very much. My eyesight has improved dramatically. Thanks so much Joffe!
Alexia Mendez
Are you kidding me, I could not be more thankful! Front desk ladies are the most sweetest and super helpful with every questions I had, doctor's were super caring, and the doctor that did my LASIK did an amazing job! From legally blind to 20/20 I could not be more thankful. I cried of joy after my procedure! This place highly highly recommended👍
lubna samara
I did my Lasik here, and it was such a pleasant experience! They walk you through everything, and make sure you’re comfortable throughout the whole process. Dr. January was the best! I see 20/15 now.
Lamon Atkins
I couldn't believe how great it felt the first morning I woke up and didnt have dry eyes or from sleeping in contacts or banging the dresser looking for my glasses. PRK is awesome. The staff at Joffe is amazing and take really good care of you every step. Highly recommend you trust your eyes with the Joffe staff.
Joshua Schultz
4 days later, and my vision is sitting right about 20/20. They're very good at explaining what's going on, and have a great referral program. Not the cheapest place, but you definitely get what you're paying for, which is incredibly important when it comes to your eyes.
Jacqueline Weaver
I had lasik done on 8/25/18. I must admit, everyone in the office made me feel so comfortable. The procedure was not bad at all. I highly recommend Joffe medicenter for lasik. My vision is so much better and it's only been day 2. I wish I would've done this so much sooner.
Jay Renee
Had all laser lasik on both eyes. It was a bit freaky while the procedure was being done but it was fast and painless. Had prep assistance from Ashley G. and Dr. Su, who were great. I took the Valium pill which helped me relax. Dr. Merkley did the procedure and was great too, very efficient. I just had a bit of burning and eye watering the first day, but after that they felt fine. Just been putting in drops to moisturize. It's the day after and I already feel like I have my glasses on, just a bit hazy yet. I'm confident it should clear up soon. I highly recommend the staff at this center! My boyfriend is planning to get his eyes done next week.
Charles Ervin
Got my surgery today. Their excitement for me made me even more excited. Already seeing 20/20 and I had a very high prescription level. It is a great feeling to wake up from the nap and not have to search for my glasses!
Vanessa Escamilla
I couldn’t be more grateful to Dr. Merkley and his staff. From the consultation to the procedure, they were very welcoming and professional. It’s only been 5 hrs since my procedure and I can see. After a decade of wearing glasses, I can finally say I can get rid of them. The procedure was very fast. By the time I knew it, it was all over. Thank you Dr. Merkley for changing my life!!! I will appreciate it always.
Sophia Maknojia
I had my surgery today and everything went well. I had wonderful staff experience. Dr. Merkley made my feel very comfortable and he made procedure for me very comfortable. After five hours my vision is 20/15.
O z
Good service but not deserve 5 star.
Reasons
1. My opponent time was 2:50. I was on time but when got there they told me 7 people are already waiting for. I was already nervous about surgery and then wait another 2 hours was not make me happy. I got surgery around after 5 o’clock
2.They told me I can have all my medicine before surgery but they told me pharmacy was already closed so I had to go pharmacy after surgery.
There are some other reasons for 3 star.
Tram Ng
I had a great experience at Joffe Jasik. Everyone was nice and attentive, front desk folks was also great. During the consults the doctor will go over all the expectations and answer all your questions. The procedure itself was quick and painless.
Amber
I received LASIK one month ago and couldn't be happier. The best use of money I've ever spent! The staff at Joffe really know what they're doing and made me feel at ease. I'd recommend them to anyone thinking about LASIK.
Natalie M
I researched for about 2 weeks before I picked my top 3 lasik clinics (Joffe was my #1 pick). I came in and was very impressed with how knowledgeable the entire staff was! I did not feel rushed or pressure into getting my procedure with Joffe. The day of the procedure, Dr. January had a brief sit down with me to give me a run down of how the procedure would go (he is hilarious). I then went into the OR and I must admit I was nervous but the music that was jammin in the background put me at ease. I returned to Joffe the next day for a follow up and was already able to read the 20/20 line despite some mild dryness in my eyes. I could not be happier with Joffe Medicenter and I would happily recommed it to anyone!!!
Lauren Oshiro
My experience with Joffe MediCenter was fabulous! They were attentive, professional, and walked me through every step of the lasik process. Dr. Merkley was very knowledgeable and top notch. I am very particular and I have no complaints! Thank you, Joffe!!
Lyn Pham
The best decision I have ever made is to go to this office and trust them to lasik for my eyes. Dr.Su and Dr.January made my experience a lot of excitement to get my vision fixed. Got my 20/15 vision the next day after the procedure. Probably the friendliest staff on the planet.
azzie Martin
Went for free consultation last week. Staff was friendly, thorough and very knowledgeable. Dr. Su suggested, because of my vision, I get the procedure in only one eye, which I had heard before from my previous Dr. I also agreed. This assured me that they were not out for money but are considerate of the patients best interest. I had Lasik done yesterday morning. I was very nervous but was calmed after meeting with Dr Merkley. Procedure took maybe 5 minutes. Didn't feel a thing just a little pressure when they were putting the eye holders on. They kept me informed on everything they were doing. Next thing I knew, it was over. Went home and went to sleep. Woke up with vision a little blurry but not bad. Could immediately see a difference. This morning there is no blurry eyes just a bit dry. Once I put the drops in all was good. Make sure you use drops as directed. I am so glad I made the discussion to have it done. I highly recommend it and Joffe.
jan Houston
Staff were friendly specially the follow up (Ashley). The lazer surgery itself was unbelievably comfortable and masterfully done. Sticking the tapes on the eyelash needs improvement not to get inside the eye. Other wise I do recomend Dr. Merkley to be the best
Abraham Elizarraras
Had a wonderful experience here. All the staff very friendly and doctor Merkley was transparent between getting Lasik or PRK. Based on Doctors recommendation I got Lasik and I am now using 20/20. Procedure was fast and my check-up also went great and got a free T-shirt. Definitely will recommend to friends and family.
ivan lawrence
The entire team was phenomenal throughout the entire process... Never felt pressured like at other places, and results were top notch... I literally went from as bad of eyesight you can have to near clarity within a good 5 hour sleep after my operation. Only complaint of mine is that i wish I'd had the courage to do it earlier.
Ann Medrano
If I could give them 10 Stars, I would! From the moment I called for an appointment I was greeted with extreme professionalism. The doctors and staff answered all my questions. It did not matter how silly they were. I was completely at ease the day of my procedure. I have to say it was because I was completely confident with the skills of Dr. Kevin Merkley and his team. The procedure went smoothly and I am completely in awe with my new vision. I am only a few days out from my procedure, but seeing better that I did with my contacts and glasses. From what the staff and others are telling me, it will only get better. It also helps that some of the staff, the doctors and their family members have had LASIK, because they know first hand what you will experience and can give feed back. When I decided to have LASIK, I shopped around and kept coming back to Joffe. So pleased with my decision. I have already recommended Joffe to my friends and family. Thank you to the Joffe Team! LOVE MY NEW VISION!
Sean Evans
Seamless and exciting process, puts the nerves at ease to know you have professionals working to accommodate your health and needs! 20 years of glasses was repaired with 20 seconds of LASIK and the best eye care I have ever received in all of my years visiting any ophthalmologist!!!
Brian Baker
This was one the one of the best experiences I have had. Great service, wonderful people that make you feel comfortable every step along the way. Plus waking up with 20/15 vision was more than I could ever imagine. Thank you Joffrey!
zelle cabron
I had a wonderful experience with Joffe Medicenter Bellaire! Since day one, my day of exam, through my actual day of surgery, and through my post-op check-up, the staff were very accommodating, supportive and competent. I am sooo happy I chose Joffe to take care of my vision needs!
Jeril Pulliyil (JP)
Joffe Medicenter is amazing! Dr. Kevin Merkely and his staff were really friendly and walked my wife and I through the whole process and on the day off everything was fast and hassle free. Will definitely recommend Joffe for anyone considering LASIK.
Chanda Dean
Love my new 20/15 vision! Joffee is so worth it. I never thought I could get away from glasses. The staff are amazing and they will cheer you on through the whole process. I certainly have no regrets.
Bryan Withawhye
Joffe is LASIK done right. The quality of their services combined with their knowledgeable, caring, and genuinely friendly staff makes them a winner. Don't fall for the "get what you pay for" scare tactics of providers charging 2-3x as much for the exact same procedure - you will not find a better LASIK experience anywhere. The only complaint I have is that whenever I'd arrive for my appointment (whether it be for consultation, procedure, or follow-up) I'd sign in, sit down, pick up a magazine, and they'd always call my name after I had read just a few paragraphs - I never had time to finish a single article! Seriously though, if you live in/around Houston check out Joffe. You'll be doing yourself a disservice if you have your procedure done anywhere else.
Deezy UpNext
Was nervous at first but turned out to be a awesome experience. I went in seeing 20/70 after only 6 days not even a full week I’m seeing 20/15!!! I highly recommend Joffe. There’s no success without struggle. It was a lil rough the first few days but it was well worth it and my vision is gonna only get better!!!
Emily Garvey
Everything was faster and easier than I expected! They answered all my questions and more, making me feel really comfortable about the whole procedure... Less than 8 hours after my surgery, I was already reading 20/20!
Jacqui W
Great experience! Staff was very friendly. Doctors answered all my questions and explained everything step by step. I knew what to expect every step of the way and that really helped ease my nerves. Highly recommend getting procedure done here.
Saldivar
Recently had lasik done at the Joffe MediCenter..... I was really impressed with the staff on how professional they were. They were extremely nice and made me feel comfortable during the procedure. I will be referring all my blind friends here!
Raj Sawlani
I had an amazing experience at the Joffe Medicenter. Its been one month and my vision is now 20/15 and still improving. I did not experience any side effects. They did an excellent job!
Marcy Yardas
This was an incredible experience!! Staff was amazing😁 day 2 and my vision went from 20/70 to 20/20. I am so happy😁😁 Virtually painless and staff walk you through every step. If you are considering having Lasik go to Jaffe!! …
Tony Chan
Getting Lasik surgery is the best decision I ever made. I don’t have any regrets and would gladly do it again if my eyes ever go bad. My experience at Joffe was great and exciting. I originally thought the place was a scam due to its affordable price but everything was legit. The staffs are very welcoming and nice. They take you through every step and answer any questions you may have. I highly recommend checking them out and you can use my name “TONY CHAN” as a referral so that I get $50 and you’ll get $50 off the surgery. The consultation is free and will help ease you in the process. They didn’t make any false promises like getting 100% 20/20 vision but instead gave me realistic expectations. This was a life changing experience for me. I love waking up every morning seeing the world without the need of glasses.
Here are some of my advices after you do the Lasik surgery. Make sure you follow everything the staffs tell you to do. Meaning to take the eye drops at the right time, wear the eye shield when sleeping, don’t rub your eyes, etc. If you watch TV or work in front of computer, take a break every hour so your eyes can rest. Make sure you use preservative free eye drops. This was the hardest part for me but try to remain very patient. It’s going to take time for the eyes to heal and so stay focus on taking care of your eyes and everything will turn out great. Hope this helps and good luck. –TONY CHAN
Andrew Lytwyn
What a wonderful experience 100 percent better results then I thought. I am still healing but vision is already 20/20 within one day. The actual experience of the LASIK surgery was amazing and the doctor was amazing and explained everything.
I am not easy to please but I would recommend Joffe to anyone consider LASIK.
Jared Smith
Joffe lasik was fantastic. Friendly staff! Shai and Ashley were great! Although he procedure was a bit uncomfortable I woke up the next day and could see far better than I could with contacts or glasses! Not to mention that Joffe LASIK was about $1200 less than all the others I looked into. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Marcus Grove
My wife had her Lasik surgery performed at Joffe today by Dr January. Can't say enough good things about this place. All of the staff were great and the whole process was very thorough and well explained. Would recommend anyone interested in Lasik to visit Joffe Medicenter.
Ben Hendricks
I had a great experience with all laser LASIK. Ended up with 20/15 vision on the second day. The staff was very friendly and the process was very smooth. If you are thinking about LASIK, you can't go wrong with Joffe.
Jimmy Dang
Hi I’m 29 and i decided to opt for lasik surgery, let me tell you. It was the quickest procedure I’ve been through. It wasn’t scary, but my left eye is a lot worst than my right so that one hurt slightly. The drive home I couldn’t really open my eyes, I took some drops and KTFO. When I woke I could open my eyes better, utilize the drops, and I was playing games again. I started driving the next day. Now I’m at my follow up. Write a review and get a Tshirt :)
Shirley Odonnell
I walked in blind wearing eyeglasses than I walked out forgetting my eyeglasses at the office to say goodbye . I of course came back for them but donated them . I now have 20/15 vision!!!!! I never felt so great and I can smile a lot more in the mirror . I never have to be disgusted with looking at myself in eyeglasses . The service is wonderful . During surgery they are so good at comforting U. It's over so quick . You feel so relieved .Walk in with glasses and walk out bc you no longer will you need them anymore !! Thank you Joffee!!
Hope Cooper
The Best experience ever!!!!!! I was soooooo nervous bc my astigmatism was 2x as bad than the normal person. But Dr. Merkley and his crew did an awesome job talking me through the 10 minute (well that’s what it felt like) procedure. My vision was 20/200 now I’m 20/15 BABY!!!!!! The ENTIRE office is THE BEST!!! Thank you all :)
Gricelda Muñoz-Danas
I contemplated lasik for many years but was always too afraid to actually get the procedure done. This year I became tired of my glasses constantly falling off during my workouts, I decided to go ahead and do it. Lasik at Joffe was the best decision I could've made. The entire thing was quick and painless; from the consult to the actual surgery. The doctors and nurses were so helpful and walked me through the entire thing, literally a second by second play by play. I was very nervous but the fact that they did that made it so much easier. Thank you so much Joffe!!!
Isaias Ossa Jr
I just want to say that if you are looking for the best place where they have the best service and staff you need to come to Joffe Medicenter. You will not regret it. It was the best choice I could have ever made. The staff was extremely nice and informative. The doctor was also great of course. And now I can see without glasses. Yes they are not as expensive as other places but the service is just as good if not better.
Jesus Rodriguez
The staff were friendly and answered all of my questions. They work quickly and efficiently making sure that I was up to date with the procedures and I really saw results the very next day. I definitely recommend Joffe MediCenter for anyone who wants to improve their vision.
Dylan Rasch
Nothing but good things to say. Really life changing. Overall a 10/10 experience. Super friendly staff. Really great facilities, and most importantly of all, 20/15 vision after PRK surgery. They really know what they're doing here, and it's really well run. I would do it again in a heartbeat. Very grateful and very happy. Word of advice to those getting PRK- get blackout curtains and load up on audiobooks, podcasts, and music to listen to while you're healing. Thanks again to everyone at Joffe.
Lauren Timmons
The staff and Doctors at Joffe Medicenter were TOP NOTCH! Having elective surgery one your eyes, is not a trivial thing, so I did quite a bit of research prior to making my decision to go with Joffe; and I was pleasantly surprised that there were so many positive reviews. Dr. Merkley and his team are professional, they make sure you are comfortable, and answer any questions that you have prior to the surgery. Everyone was friendly. The facilities are clean and comfortable. The nurses explain post care very well.
Joffe is a well-oiled machine. They know what they are doing, the surgery was quick and painless for me. Do follow the instructions by going straight to sleep post-surgery and putting drops in regularly. The day after my surgury I was seeing 20/20! My eyes were extremely bad (-6.75 in both eyes) so it’s pretty awesome to be able to see without glasses or contacts in as little as 12 hours!
I can’t say enough about Dr. Merkley and Joffe Medicenter! I would recommend this place to anyone looking to have elective Lasik surgery.
Cindy
Great from start to finish. No high pressure sales tactics. Joffe even gives you $50 off if you tell them I referred you. I initially visited a different company that pressured me to make an appointment for surgery. When I called to cancel, they said I would not find Lasik cheaper. They were wrong. I called a number of places and Joffe had the best price with the same high tech equipment all the other advanced centers use. I received exceptional care. They educated me on everything and provided all the info I needed to prepare myself and make the right decision. Tell them Cindy Haake (Haake is pronounced like cake) referred you and that I had my procedure on 5/18/17. They will give you the $50 discount even if you are being referred due to this posting.
Almeria Lacy
OMG!!! Shai and the entire staff at Joffe MediCenter made me feel very comfortable during my Lasik procedure today. Although initially apprehensive, the procedure was great. Thank you, Joffe for helping me see again.
Chelsea Actkinson
Joffe was AMAZING!!!!! The staff is extremely nice, the place is cleaned, and most of all they have the most affordable options for LASIK eye surgery. My boyfriend had his LASIK done and it only took 8 minutes per eye. It was a super quick and easy process. My boyfriend chose to use the blades procedure which is definitely just as safe as the all laser just more affordable. As soon as he had his eyes done he instantly could see and of course as days passed his vision got better and better. He is completely satisfied with the results and would recommend this to anyone!!! The amount of money you spend in glasses and contacts with the solution already amounts to the price you pay for LASIK. Don't wait any longer it's definitely worth it!!!
Ashley Stephens
Joffe medicenter was hands down amazing!! I just came back for my 24 hr follow up and am at 20/25! Everyone here is so sweet and welcoming. Dr. January should moonlight as a comedian! The girl even held my hand during the procedure to put me at ease. I am so glad I chose joffe for my lasik!
Sonia Quintanilla
Love I can see again the next day after my procedure without my contacts or prescription glasses. The staff and Dr. J are amazing! Best decision I made!!☺
Jiten Parshottam
Just had my lasik done today. Everything went well and as planned.
Dr. January and all the staff were friendly, caring, and professional.
Highly recommend Joffe MediCenter to anyone looking to have lasik surgery!
Chris Serbantez
Was borderline blind before my procedure on 11/14/14 now a month later I am 20/15! Best decision I've ever made! I highly recommend Joffe. Staff is amazing and works with you to calm you before the procedure. Give them a chance and tell Chris Serbantez sent you. You will not regret this decision!
Candace Woodard
Im so excited I decided to finally do lasik and I had an option to just correct one eye. I went in for my consult Friday and Saturday I was fixed up. They were honest and very reasonable in price. You should have a free consult to see if your a candidate. So far it was the best decision . It's just my second day but I Can tell the difference already . Thanks Dr Merkley and staff. Ingrid was the best she make it possible for me . Thanks Joffe Medicenter
Elaine Su
After a lot of deliberation, I finally decided, about a month ago, to get LASIK. I'm about to go on a month-long backpacking trip, and the prospect of having to bring contact solution in my 45L pack was daunting. Plus, my job is about to require a lot of long hours, and neither my eyes nor my nose enjoy contacts and glasses for 30+ hours (respectively).
But because LASIK is an elective procedure, and my vision at baseline isn't so bad, I was still a little nervous when I walked into Joffe Medicenter yesterday for my procedure. However, the staff was warm, courteous, professional, and knowledgeable. Most had even had their own personal experiences with LASIK, and were happy with the results, which was probably the most reassuring part.
The actual procedure only took a few minutes (and was preceded by some Valium, which was a big plus). There was some transient discomfort, but a staff member walked me through each step of the procedure while it was happening, so nothing came as a surprise, which I really appreciated. I was able to see immediately after the procedure, and received very clear instructions on exactly how to administer my eyedrops after going home. My vision became clearer over the next several hours, and then markedly improved when I woke up the day after.
Today (on post-op day 1) my vision is 20/15! I'm so excited to wake up every day with clear vision! Thanks Dr. Merkley and everyone at Joffe Medicenter!
(Also, you gotta love the massage chairs situated all around the office. I definitely fell asleep right before my procedure!)
Janet Delgado
After wearing glasses & contacts for almost 20 years I am so grateful to Joffe Medicenter! My vision is completely clear in just a few hours! Thank you to all the staff for talking me through my procedure and making it easier!
Andrew Beach
I had my eyes done here about 3 yrs ago and my vision is excellent. I've wore glasses since I was in 1st or 2nd grade and I'm 34 now, so, super awesome to get up in the morning and not be stumbling around trying to put my contacts in or anything else. :)
Dustin Maddox
A-MA-ZING! Had a wonderful LASIK experience at Joffe yesterday! I had done weeks of research and after my initial consultation a few weeks, I decided to have Joffe do my procedure. Dr. Merkley and the entire staff are amazing and very professional! I was literally in and out of the procedure room in about 12 minutes - it really is that quick - and hardly felt a thing! I had some minor discomfort for about the first 2 hours after the procedure but it quickly went away. I had a pretty advanced prescription (-6.25% in both eyes) and a slight astigmatism in both eyes so I was a bit skeptical only one procedure would be enough - but indeed it was! I woke up this morning seeing incredibly and feeling nearly 100%! It's like super hi-def - 4K vision! Dr. Merkley got the adjustments just right - not too little, no too much. Thank you Joffe for giving me my life back! I can't wait to see what's next! I had been considering LASIK vision correction for a long time so my only regret is not having done this much sooner!
Parisha Williams
When I first learned about Lasik I was in disbelief that something so simple could fix me vision. I have been wearing glasses since 8th grade. I’m glad I made the choice to go through with Lasik at Joffe medi center. The staff are completely helpful. From the moment you enter the door they make sure you are well aware of the procedure steps. It took no longer than 15mins to complete. I was nervous but once it was over and I could still see made me happy. After sleeping for hours, I woke up no glasses, contact and with 20/20 vision. Thanks to Joffe I’m free at last!
Jarlen Maddon
I have been wearing glasses and contacts for 17 years. I can't explain how excited I was when the procedure was over and I could already see! The staff is extremely friendly and very informative. My only regret is not doing it sooner.
Shanese Robinson
I got lasik yesterday around 430p, went home and slept pretty much all night...It’s 830 (the next morning) and I was able to read the 20/20 line on the screen! Less than 24hrs!! Best decision I’ve ever made!...not to mention it was completely painless!
Diana Russell
Don't wait, don't hesitate. Go get it done. This professional staff of people are the best I have ever dealt with. I did my research and Joffe, has exceeded every expectation. It is incredible what vision is restored in just under 60 seconds per eye. This US Soldier is ready and can see everything now. Again, don't wait call Joffe now!!
Kris M
The staff were awesome! My wife got lasik here and we highly recommend this place! They explain everything very well, and they make sure you’re comfortable. They are friendly, overall it was a great experience for my wife!
Mike Nguyen
I love this place. I got my lasik 3 days ago. So far, I love it. Procedure was well explained and smooth. Price was fair. I still got to wait for healing time so my eyes get perfect. Staff is very nice and informative. Dr. Su was incredibly nice. Second checkup, I had an eyelash poking my eye and irritating it. She plucked it out for me. She is such a sweetheart. I'd come everyday just to get pampered by Dr Su. : ) mention my name cassidy Nguyen to get 50 dollars off
Bri L
I really recommend this place for LASIK surgery coming from someone with a very high presciption. Today is day 2 from the LASIK procedure and I am very happy with the results. The staff is just wonderful and truly amazing. Thank you Joffe Medical Center for making this experience trusting, easy, quick & simply worth it.
Quincton Scott
My glasses used to cost $300-400 dollars. My vison was 20/300 or something. I’ve worn glasses since elementary school. I WAS nearsighted and HAD developed an astigmatism over the years....not any more! Had my LASIK procedure yesterday and I have 20/15 vison today! Less than 24hrs later! The staff here is great. They take care of everything virtually in house. Even your eye drop prescriptions are delivered and waiting on you the day of procedure. Dr. Mattioli did my LASIK procedure. Him and his team were great! The whole thing was over in 12-15 mins. Everything about this office is top notch. From the front desk to finance. Yes financing is available. I definitely recommend anyone who wears glasses to come see the team here at Dr. Joffe MedCenter! Tell em Quincton Scott sent you!
Crystal Dilley
After 15+ years I took the dive and got LASIK! Best choice ever. Joffe has an amazing staff that is friendly and warning. Everything is explained well before and after the procedure. I'm now 20/20! Woo!
Amy Zou
Amazing doctors (Dr. Merkley and Dr. Su), and amazing staffs!!!
I got my LASIK survey done on 12/9/2016. I had been wearing glasses for 14 years, and getting LASIK done is definitely one of the major decisions in my life. I did my research online when it came to picking a clinic, and I found Joffe LASIK center. I was amazed by the amount of positive reviews on both Google and Yelp. And Joffe was also ranked number 1 on Angie's list. So I decided to go in for an initial consultation on 12/6. After seeing the good facility and nice and knowledgeable staff and doctors, I decided to have my surgery scheduled asap because I was just so sick of walking around seeing everything blurry (I really disliked wearing glasses or contacts and had been avoid wearing them for a long time now even tho I should). It was definitely nerve racking for me as I have a relative low tolerance for pain. The whole procedure was very short, Dr. Merkley performed the surgery for me. I was nervous during the procedure, but due to the numbing eye drops, I did not feel any actual pain. After the procedure was done, I was able to open my eyes and see things right away!!! I walked out of the facility wearing just regular protective sunglasses but I was already seeing the difference in my vision. However, I do need to warn you that, like the doctors mentioned, there is definitely discomfort after the numbing drops wear off...I was tearing so much and couldn't have my eyes open on the way back home and had to take pain killers to help with the pain. I slept right away despite the discomfort in my eyes for around 2 hours. After I woke up, the pain was mostly gone and I was seeing crystal clear (with very small halos around lights and stuff, but nothing major that bothered me).
Today is the second day post op and I went in for my first check up. The only thing that is bothering me today is I feel like there is a sand grain constantly rubbing on my upper left corner in my right eye. But other than that everything is perfect. Dr. Su had my eyes checked and told me I have 20/20 in both eyes, and seeing with both eyes together I have 20/15!
I am extremely happy with the results I got from Joffe, for years now I can finally see things! I would highly recommend Joffe to anyone who considers doing LASIK!!!

I had great experience here. They changed my life positively. Doctors have high qualifications and every staff are dedicated. Thank you a lot. Now I can see the world with my own eyes in the clearliest way ever! 😍 …

Update. It has been 2 weeks. I'm still adjusting to the fact that I don't need my glasses anymore. It's true sometimes my vision is good (mostly day) and sometimes bad (mostly night). If you are a side sleeper it will be harder for you. Best is back sleeper.
Today, at this hour is my official 24 hrs after my full custom laser lasik surgery. My feeling is incredibly. Can only describe with two words, Total Happiness!
** tip: drink a sleeping pill right before you go into surgery. By the time the 15 minutes over you should be ready to sleep. The actual surgery is about 2 minutes. 5 minutes after the surgery your eyes will feel the uncomfort. So that sleeping pill kick in just in time. It's best to sleep for the next 12 hours....
I started by searching around looking at several places but i found that Joffe have their price extremely simple.
I came in for a exam. They are certainly very thorough with really advance technology and GUARANTEE NO AiR PUFF so you can go thru them exam at ease.
The staff and doctors are very nice and joyful. They are willing to address any concerns and questions with details. I feel very comfortable, and I appreciate that very much.

I had my lasik on 5/22/2015. It's been 10 months & my eyes are still 20/15 (which is better than 20/20)!
I had relatively high description of nearsightedness (6.5 dioptres each eye), been wearing glasses for 15 years, NEVER wore contacts before (because I was too scared to put something in my eyes), and my eyes were EXTREMELY sensitive towards everything (including eyedrops).
COST - After researching for different places including their reviews & prices, Joffe is the one offers the lowest price with the highest review ratings! Their regular procedure is $1,395 per eye. I chose the All-Laser Lasik procedure at $1,695 per eye. Even though I was qualified for both procedures & they told me it wouldn't be any different in quality between the 2 procedures, my optometrist recommended to ALWAYS choose All-Laser Lasik for a minimum possibility of complication. I only have 2 eyes, so I wouldn't mind paying some extra for a higher successful rate. They also have a great referral program too. If you give them my name - THAO NGUYEN, you will have some discount on your procedure.
GOOD - (1) Very friendly & supportive staff - everyone was so energetic! (2) They don't make you wait too long for any appointment. (3) They don't make you commit in anything until the very last minute before you go into the procedure! From the very first step when you come for an eye exam, you schedule your surgery appointment, you come in for the surgery, you discuss again with the staff & ask them all the questions - no payment all the way till this point so you can literally make up your mind at the very last minute before the surgery! (4) The cost of medication for post-procedure was extremely affordable!! My friends spent around $500 for their medication & I spent less than $100 in total. The results still turned out wonderfully! They explained their prescription had the same function as the expensive ones but from the more affordable brands because other locations will receive higher incentive when they make you buy the more expensive medication.
PROCEDURE - Their staff had been super friendly, understandable, and very supportive in answering your quétions & making sure you feel as comfortable as possible. The procedure took about 10-15 minutes. They let you lay down, put a light blanket on & gave you something to hold on so you could release your stress. Honestly, just like everyone said, I only felt the pressure but no pain whatsoever! Oh and I still saw things during the procedure too. Not the whole procedure but only here & there. It was a very interesting experience. You should be able to start seeing things clearly right after the procedure. :)
6-8 hours after the procedure was the most uncomfortable part of this whole lasik thing (yes, even more than the procedure itself!). Probably also because I never wore contacts before so my eyes were never been under such a pressure like that. Just make sure to take some Advid PM or something else that can put you asleep so you can sleep through the discomfort. The moment when I opened my eyes in the following morning was AMAZING! First time ever in 15 years I can see the wall clock that clear right after I opened my eyes!!! It was totally worth all of the efforts.
Just please make sure to put all of the drops on time as instructed.I know this might sound too simple & obvious but believe me, you don't want to skip or be late for any part of it. I went strictly with the assigned schedule for the antibiotic & other drops. My eyes did not experience any dryness at all!
Within 3-6 months from the procedure, some glares & hallows are normal. Red bruises on the white part of your eyes are normal (should go away after 1 month). Difficulty in focusing on small texts can happen. Temporary dry eyes are very common for majority of people getting lasik (not me though - teehee :D) However, all of the symptoms will get better through time.
TRUST ME, THIS "INVESTMENT" IS TOTALLY WORTH IT! GOOD LUCK!!! :)

I was a bit apprehensive to have anything done on my eyes as the thought of not seeing at all but now i had it done i would Recommend it to anyone. It was a very Different experience to have your eyes work done while they were open but it was simple and painless. The staff was friendly fast and encouraging
Katrina Pritchett
I have been wanting Lasik for years now and I dont know why it took me so long, but I'm glad I did because Dr. Bruce January did an amazing job. It's been 24 hours since my procedure and I already have 20/20 vision!
Jaclyn Legacion
This place has been amazing! The consultation answered all of my questions and they made me feel right at home as soon as I walked through the doors. The PRK procedure was quick and easy for my -6 point something prescription and I felt like eyes were in capable hands. Thanks so much Joffe team!
Anton Haliburton

Erandy Gonzalez
I came to joffe Medicenter to get the Free evaluation for lasik. EVERYONE was super friendly and I loved the communication. They explained every part of of the process. I am a good candidate so we will see what happens next.
Teresa Nguyen
This is the second place I went to for consultation after berkeley eye center. Staff here is super nice and informative. They do more testing and informing here and less paperwork. Felt much more thorough.. Much more personal! Pricing is significantly better as well. Even though they don't take insurance it was STILL significantly more financially friendly than the other place. And they have different financing offers too. Definitely recommend this place!!
Truc Bui
I had great experiences at joffe medicenter. The staff is very nice and helpful. The doctors are very knowledgeable and answer all my inquiries about the procedure and post care. The office is super clean and spacious. I recommend to choose this place if you decide to have lasik surgery since the price is affordable with trustworthy doctors and staff.

Super awesome staff! I got my Lasik done on Friday and walked out seeing great. Staff made me feel comfortable and welcome. Dr. Merkely is AWESOME!
Mohammad yazdanbakhsh
The joffe medical center restored my vision after wearing glasses for 15 years. I was referred by a few family members. I strongly recommend this medical center. It was quick and easy. The whole lasik surgery procedure took 15 minutes!
Jose Felix-Rodarfe
I CAN SEE CLEARLY NOW THE RAIN IS GOOOONE!!!
LITERALLY THE BEST INVESTMENT YOU CAN MAKE IF YOU WANNA SPEND MONEY ON YOURSELF!!!
The staff is extremely friendly and professional.
The actual procedure takes less than 10 minutes and you are able to see right after.
Dina Stewart
I was sooo done needing the glasses to find my glasses so I did my research and here I went to get a brand new pair of eyes! Dr. Merkley is amazing! Dr. Su is so sweet and funny! All the staff is so helpful, answered every little question I had. The surgery went smoothly, quickly and that same day I was able to drive without the need of glasses! It's almost too good to be true and It IS reality!!! Wow! Just wow!!
If you mention my name "Dina Stewart"( last 4 digits of my phone are 2562, DOB 11.12.1983), you'll get a $50 discount.
Don't hesitate, go for it! The only thing you will regret is that you haven't done it earlier!
Heather Rudge
The staff and doctors were so nice! They took their time to make sure I was comfortable and answered all of my questions. I'm so glad we chose Joffe and I will be telling all my friends to come here as well.
Kristen Egan
My mom had her procedure at Joffe MediCenter. She had been wearing contacts night and day. She was able to get out of her contacts that were really irritating her eyes. She had the monovision procedure that got rid of her reading glasses and for driving also!!
The staff at Joffe was amazing and put her at ease through the entire process. I can truly say they changed my Mom's life.
Glenda McHenry
I just recently got my lasik done here and I was pretty nervous but the staff was wondering in helping me through the process. Caroline held my hand when I thought I couldn't do it. The procedure was a breeze and Dr. January was awesome. No more Glasses! Thanks Joffe-Ballaire
Bisi Ajala
Ok so my experience here was awesome! I always wanted to do Lasik but didn't have the confidence. I idea of some surgery equipment going into my eyes was just not going to happen. However, I was getting tired and gradually frustrated with using glasses. I was looking for encouragement and when I looked these guys up, it finally clicked. I was so surprised at how quick it was done. I am now seeing at 20/15. I'm no more four eyes, but you can call me eagle eyes now. #GoJoffe
Tami H
I had a good experience and I'm glad I did it. I didn't realise how many appointments it would take. They are terrible about making you wait a long time for a checkup. If I had known I probably would have picked somewhere closer to home. They want you to come back the day after your surgery, then at 1 month, and then at 3 months. That's a lot of driving and waiting if you live far away.
Dana Ladner
Had such a great experience with Joffe! I had really terrible vision (like 6.5 contact prescription bad) and an astigmatism in one eye. Day after lasik, I had 20-15 vision. And, now 3 months out and still 20-15 vision! So glad I picked Joffe!
Trishy Mey
Today i had a successful lasik eye surgery. Couldn't ask for anything better. What an experience! Thanks to Dr. Joffe Steven and lovely nice/kind staff. Thank You so much!
Leo Paolo Tan
Very fast procedure and competitive pricing. Went from 5.5 dioptics to 20/15. Free exam is good for seeing if this is for you or not. Definitely no reason to skip if LASIK is something you've considered in the past.
Sydney Bedell
I had an amazing experience with Joffe Medicenter. Dr. Merkley, Ingrid, the doctors, and the rest of the staff made me feel comfortable during the lasik surgery. I would highly recommend getting your lasik surgery done here.
Thuy Nguyen
I had my lasik done yesterday. Today I can see very clear and the doctor told me my vision is 20/20. Joffee Medicenter is an excellent place to have a lasik. Everyone here is so nice, and I really feel comfortable after lasik.
Cordell Shackelford
My experience with Joffe Medcenter was awesome. The procedure took less than 30 minutes and the after care was excellent. I will definitely recommend to anyone who is thinking about getting lasik done.
Michelle Espinoza
Very friendly place. Dr. January was very educated. Answered all our questions. Loved the disco music. It kept me calm. I was a bit nervous but thank God it went well. Hubby's turn next.
Raul Torres

Omar Ochoa
LASIK @ Joffe Medicenter yesterday. Excellent. I cannot say enough about how great the entire Joffe team has been! They answered ALL my questions and guided me through every step. The first day after the 15 minute procedure and I am seeing 20/20. If you are considering LASIK, you owe it to yourself to go to Joffe. And when you go, tell them I sent you (you will get a discount ;)
Michael Waits
Had my Lasik eye surgery today. Was an extremely great experience. So to most people who are nervous about this I’ll tell you how it all went. You start off by showing up 15 min ahead of time to complete some paperwork, then the take you to do one last eye exam to make sure everything is perfect. Then you get to sit in a message chair and watch a video on how the procedure will go. The entire time you are there, they are extremely intentitve to your needs. There was a gentleman named Shay who was great and really calmed my wife done. (We both had it done ) He was very possitive and upbeat and made us laugh.( love his accent) he needs a raise for sure!! After you take your volume if you want it you are completely relaxed. The doctor comes in (Dr Merkley for us) explains what’s going on, very reassuring, great guy. Then you lay one the table and they tell you step by step what to do. You stair at a green light and you do not have to worry about blinking because you eyes are taped open, and then there is a little pressure for about 15 seconds, a suction cup like machine holds your eye in place so you can’t move it. And then bam 10 seconds later your done and can immediately see. Crazy how everything looks HD now. Thank you guys for everything.
Miss Terri
Had lasik eye surgery here yesterday with Dr. Merkel and I have to say I am very pleased. The idea of someone cutting into my eye bald was a bit nerve wrecking, but everyone did an amazing job helping me relax. It helped tremendously to have Dr. Merkel and Ashley talking me through it the entire time. Ashley was like the coach on the side line keeping me updated every step of the way. Today I am doing my post op follow up with Dr. Su who is as sweet as pie. I love her energy.
As for my vision..... I have a lot of dryness, but I keep my eye drops near by and put them in as told. I tried putting my glasses on today and they were too strong to see out of. Last night I really got to see a difference when I looked at my television to sync with my Hulu app and I didn't have to squint or move up to see the pin number to link the two to stream Hulu.
Overall if you are tired of wearing corrective lens I recommend you come visit the Joffe MediCenter. They quoted me a little over half the place I did a consultation a year ago with did. That's a big deal when insurance doesn't cover this procedure. I look forward to referring more business.
Janett Reed
My vision improve 20/20 after many years not be able to read or drive at night time .
The day of my surgery I felt scared and the wonderful staff kept me calm and collected .
Everyone was awesome. Dr. Su was sweet and talk to me out of my fear, with her warm voice I was ready for my surgery and Kristen was patient explain from the beginning to the end.
Thank you to all the personal at Joffe MediCenter.
Special thanks to Dr. Kevin Merkley,M.D.
Chase Ogden
Shopped around to their competitors before I finally landed on Joffe. From start to finish, the staff and physicians were great. I appreciated their genuine concern for me and my experience.
Johnsie Michels
These folks have taken extremely great care of me and my eyes!!! I have major anxiety about procedures and doctors but they have made the experience fantastic. Highly recommend them! Walking out with 20/15 vision 👀 …
Asif Jivani
I received LASIK surgery on my left eye and I already have 20/15 vision the following day! The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable, and made the process really comfortable for me.
yue cui
Feels so good to be able to dance, hike, run and yoga without glasses. It was definitely a life-changing experience. Many thanks to Joffe! Can't recommended it more!
Orlando Huerta
From the moment you walk in, every single staff member greets you with a smile. During the consultation they explain to the whole process. They even offer referral bonus! If you plan on getting lasik I would definitely recommend Joffe.
Shakib G
My surgery was on January 17th, 2014. Today is April 1st, 2014, more than 2.5 months later and I am loving it. No issues so far. I had dry eyes for the first 4-6 weeks, but my eyes are producing tears almost normally now. I used to put eye drops in my eyes about every 30 minutes in the first month after the operation, but now I am only putting drops every 2-3 hours just to be safe than sorry. Overall, I'd give Joffe a 5 star.
Cory Love
Without my glasses, I used to have trouble reading the faces of clocks and computer screens just a few feet in front of me. Now, one day after treatment, I can read road signs and billboards hundreds of feet away. Feeling like a fully functioning person for the first time in nearly three decades was more than worth the price of the procedure.
Adam broski
I would personally recommend anyone who is thinking of lasik to definitely check out joffe, I was extremely nervous going in but the doctors and customer service are extremely nice and walk you through every step to make you feel as comfortable as you need to be going into your surgery my vision is now better than ever and absolutely loved the experience and wouldn't recommend anyone else to any other lasik doctor except joffe medi. Joffe is very affordable and easy to work with. Stop waiting and go get your vision fixed today!
Brian Stewart
My LASIK experience here at Joffe was excellent. Everything was top notch from the evaluation to the procedure itself. I highly recommend Joffe to anyone even thinking of getting their perfect vision back.
Ismael Rivera
Everyone here is super nice! I had a really good experience and have had every question answered. I’m day 1 after LASIK and was at a -9 in both eyes and I’m already seeing 20/25!! It’s crazy! Thank you and would definitely recommended.
Michelle Parsons
The entire staff is friendly and informative. They will answer all your questions. We were unsure which procedure my husband wants and they assisted with alternative ideas. We are still deciding. Also, there is no “ hard sell”. They truly want you to do what is right for yourself.
Annieky Yip
Super friendly staff and accommodating. All my questions were answered. They repeatedly inform you of details on aftercare and what to expect without being prompted. Their office is clean and well done. I trusted my eyes to them and I couldn't be happier!
Daniel Gracia
I would recommend this place over any other, not just because of their affordable pricing but also because of the qualifications of Dr. Merkley and Dr. January. But what really reeled me into performing Lasik at Joffe was Ashley, she is super sweet and really knowledgable, during the procedure she is there to make sure you do not freak out. Thanks Ashley and thank you Dr. Merkley.
Gary Witty
Staff at Joffe was great. Had procedure done on Saturday and by Monday could see 20/20. They told me everything to except, and experience was just what they told me it would be. Would highly recommend Joffe to anyone, want to trash there glasses like I was.

Ramiz Momin
Awesome experience. First time getting Lasik. I underwent surgery with Dr. Mattioli who explained in detail before surgery what was to be expected. The whole experience has been great and I would definitely recommend others to undergo Lasik at Joffe Medicenter
liza kwan
Dr. January and his staff are amazing!!! Dr. January did a great job with Lasik and I had 20/20 vision the next day. Ashley G. and Yessi were super nice and helpful! I'd refer anyone to Joffe Lasik - Derrick Kwan
Holden Heartwell
Experience was amazing . The staff was very friendly and the laser eye surgery went very well. I can already see as good or better when comparing my vision to glasses or contacts.
Meredith Bassford
The staff and doctor were amazing! Everything they told me about the procedure & recovery was the truth, and I am so glad I finally have LASIK now! :) Thank You Dr. January and everyone at Joffe Houston.
Claudia Zamora
They were very clear of what to expect. The procedure was fast and I feel like I can now see in HD! Fogginess visión started 2 days after the procedure as they said it might and is expected to fluctuate between now and 3 months which is the expected time to heal.
David Smithhart
Wow. This is the first time in a long time that I have been able to write a message or text without the use of glasses. I came to Joffe a few days ago to discuss my options. They thoroughly checked everything to determine if I would be a lasik candidate. Luckily for me, I was. So, we scheduled the procedure for this morning. I came in, rechecked the eyes, had the procedure (quick and painless) and went home. As suggested, I took a nap. I am back for a checkup at 3:00 in the afternoon and all I can say is thank you to Dr. Su and the entire Joffe team. If you are tired of wearing and buying glasses and contacts, come see Joffe. You won't be disappointed.
Michael Ferrer
The Joffe team were extremely helpful and extraordinarily friendly! If you are considering laser eye surgery this is the place to go to. They are there to help and guide you through every step of the way. Dr. Su is amazing!
Rukaiya Ahmed
Had a great experience from beginning to end! It feels so good to see clearly without my glasses. Staff is super friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend Joffe.

Ethan Bell
The staff at Joffe Medicenter have all been helpful and friendly. Clear and concise instructions and attention to detail provide the impression they care about your health and vision.
Daniel Hurtado
Joffe was one of the best things that has happened to me. I used to wear glasses and contacts and after there help with lasik I got my vision better than ever beyond 20/20. I would recommend you come in and get it a try it's a free consultation and the staff is very friendly best service I've had. Thanks Joffe medicenter for my new sight.
Jason Ward
I originally had Lasik and a PRK enhancement 7 years ago at a different place. My right eye vision deteriorated over time so I needed another enhancement. Since this is probably my last chance in that eye I visited several places and felt most comfortable with Joffe. The PRK recovery is much slower and I was a little worried that my vision was still blurry after a few days but the staff did an excellent job educating me and assuring me that I was healing normally.
First day the PRK was moderately painful but nothing that couldn’t be handled.
I would recommend Joffe to anyone looking for Lasik or PRK.
Edith Navarro
I had an AMAZING experience at Joffe MediCenter! I was very nervous about the procedure but the staff made me feel very comfortable and they were all very friendly. I would recommend Joffe to anyone who is considering LASIK.
Maritza Zavala
Staff and doc January made me feel really comfortable n very professional answeringall my questions.. i was very nervous on day of procedure definitely was way better than i thought no pain!! 👌🏼😁
I really recommend!! 🤗
No more glasses👓
Say my name MARITZA ZAVALA and youll receive $$ off
Best decision ever!!
Alex Adventures
Pros: The facility is clean, the staff is friendly, and the procedure was quick and almost painless. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Cons: The collections side of the business is VERY unorganized and Sandy Hess is fairly rude and uncaring. You need to keep track of your payments because they will tell you that you didn't pay and don't tell you about the additional fees they add to your monthly bills. (You don't get a monthly bill s, balance updates, or payment receipts so you don't know what specifically they are charging you for until there's a problem)❌❌❌❌❌
Conclusion: I would recommend LASIK or PRK in a hearbeat. I couldn't be happier! But I wouldn't recommend this company
Tran Le
I had an excellent experience at Joffe Medicenter. The staff and doctors are super nice and accomodating! I feel very happy with my LASIK results and would definitely recommend everyone who's thinking about getting LASIK to at least go to the consultation.
Sarah Bibilonisambolin
From start to finish the team at Joffe made me feel safe and comfortable with the frankly scary procedure that I was undergoing. And guess what, next day I am writing this, seeing the screen l without glasses!!
They are amazing.
George Mathew
The best place in Houston to do Lasik. I went to couple of different places for consultation and the moment you enter the office you can feel why this place is amazing. Great staff and amazing first day consultation. They will do all the exams even check the prescription to make sure everything is alright. Dr Su is the best and she would make you feel safe about the procedure. She is very nice and knowledgeable. Every eye is unique so they make sure they cover everything while doing the tests. Some people have really sensitive eyes and the procedure might hurt/irritate which happened to me. I think drops they put in to numb your eyes might not be as effective for some people. But the procedure was over in 10 minutes. Dr. Merkley was amazing during the surgery. Make sure you go to bed as soon as possible and sleep as much as you can. It will be hard to open your eyes and you will loose a lot of tears. Dont worry you will feel a lot after the nap. Make sure you use the medication drops. Also get a lot of lubrication drops recommended by them for as long as you can. It will help a lot. I will definitely recommend this to anyone.
Suraj Wankhade
It took them 10 minutes to complete the procedure. I didn't experience any pain during or after. All the staff was very warm and nice to talk to, and they answered all my questions. Thank you. If only I knew about them earlier!
Carlos Perez
So for a long time now I was not sure I would ever consider getting lasik surgery, I was really nervous and quite scared at the thought of having stuff done to my eyes. Well thanks to my lovely wife Ashley G who helped me really understand all there is too know, I am now a proud member of the lasik family!! I also want to thank Ashley R, Dr. K, Dr. January and the rest of the Joffe staff for making me feel comfortable and helping me get rid of my contact lenses. I am now 20/15 and extremely happy I went thru with the surgery. I really really recommend it to anybody that's tired of the contacts or glasses!! Thanks joffee & Babe!!
Bryant
I really like my experience with Joffe Medicenter. I went from wearing glasses for everything to having 20/15 vision. All the doctors and staff are so nice.

Very satisfied with my experience here at Joffe. Received LASIK yesterday and already seeing better than before with correction. Dr. Su is very informative and wonderful to work with.

Yesni Lawal
I had my Lasik done at Joffe Medicenter in Feb 2012. Wow! Best investment of my life! I strongly recommed anyone who is looking into Lasik to consult with Joffe Medicenter. From the initial consultation to the procedure to the recovery, the Joffe team was incredible. They were so helpful, made me feel at ease the day of the procedure. Called my for follow ups... the list goes on and on. :) It has been a year and a half and my vision is still 20/20.
I will forever be thankful to Joffe Medicenter in Houston!

Sam Alford
Rarely do you find a place where the ability of the workers is matched by their passion; but without a doubt that is Joffe Medicenter. I can't say enough how great of an experience this was from start to finish. If there is ever a doubt in your mind about getting lasik, forget about it, because this is the place for you.

Super friendly staff all around Can see clearly now like I did 40 years ago.

My experience at Joffe Medicenter was great!
The procedure lasted less than one minute and Ingrid from financing was super welcoming and looked after me post procedure. :)

Dr. Merkley and his staff were great!! I should have done this sooner!!! The entire team was concerned about my care from start to finish. If you are considering LASIK and want a great experience see Dr. Merkley and his team at the Joffe Medicenter!!

I had a great experience at Joffe Medicenter Houston! I had always struggled with my eyesight that led to headaches from wearing glasses for too long and dryness when I wore contacts. I finally decided to make the investment in LASIK and looking back I could not have felt more comfortable doing so through Joffee Medicenter Houston. From the moment I walked in for my consultation the staff was so welcoming, inviting and friendly to my surgery day Dr. Kevin Merkely did an amazing job and the staff made me feel at ease. This the BEST LASIK office in Houston and the best investment I have made. I no longer have headaches and now have 20/10 vision!! I have already referred several of my friends and I encourage you to choose Joffee Medicenter Houston as well!

I was in and out of each checkup and surgery very quickly. The Lasik went very smoothly and I now have 20/20 vision at a reasonable price of $3,400 for both my eyes and astigmatism.

This is the best place to get Lasik at. My wife had it done here a few years ago and I just did it yesterday. From the very beginning to the very end everyone has been extremely nice and helpful. The procedure was extremely quick and easy. I recommend Joffe to anyone considering Lasik.

Procedure is quick and simple, friendly staff. Lots of pain on the first day but they give you drugs for it. All better the second day and I can see. I'd say it was well worth it.

This place is amazing. The consultation was amazing, the procedure, that I had 5 minutes ago, was easy peasy. I'm erupting this as I can see for the first time in 20 years. They are cheaper than Berkeley and worth every cent. Thank you Dr. Merkely, Dr. Su, both Ashleys and Yessi. You are all amazing.

Joffe MediCenter- Houston is AWESOME!! Being a nurse we are the WORST patients. Dr. January put me at ease! When the actual Valium began to work, the procedure was completed ✅ Dr Su, Carolyn, Ingrid, Yessica (I wish I can name you all) and the entire staff are very personable! The mission and culture of this office MUST include family and fun somewhere considering that's the feeling I get when I'm in this office! I love this place! 👍🏾👍🏾
Tristan Nguyen
Very professional. Options for 0% financing. Super quick procedure and you can tell they are good at their craft. Dr. Sue is super bubbly and charismatic. Ask for her!

Great experienced professionals. Was nervous about getting surgery, but the people at Joffe really make the whole experience as smooth as possible and would recommend to anyone looking to get their eyes checked out
Selby Johnson
The staff is always really nice and helpful in answering questions. I received LASIK back in December 2015 and it is definitely worth the price. Joffee is also one of the most affordable LASIK centers in the Houston area.
