Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Just had my annual eye exam
I have been Dr. Takagi’s patient for approx five years. No problem with scheduling appts.Office visits have been courteous, professional and efficient. I appreciate that Dr. T does not “ over-medicalize” care but gets the job done. When I eventually need cataract treatment/surgery, Dr. Takaki will be my surgeon.

office visit
I have been with Dr Takagi for several years. He has always been professional and helpful. You might say his office is a site for sore eyes.

Dr Takagi treated my mother with the utmost respect, even when at times she could be a bit difficult. He went the extra mile to bring her the medication she needed to her adult family home himself which is unheard of these days. He is my own doctor too, and I could not be happier with my care received every time I have made an appt.

I saw Dr. Takagi twice when I lived in Edmonds, WA and he was always Very Professional and Intelligent along w/a wonderful staff/office. I wish people would know that surgeons are very focused humans, they are not there to be "warm and fuzzy" (for those who wrote that he is not personable; he's a surgeon, not your family member)--otherwise he/surgeons could not focus/resolve your Medical Condition(s); Dr. Takagi is very good at what he does: Being an MD and Surgeon and I highly recommend him.

I've been to Dr. Takagi twice and was hustled in and out quickly both times. Spent all of 2 minutes with him on both occasions, where he simply suggested I return in 6 months to 'see how things are going'. He seems to be solely focused on the more advanced problems of his elderly patients - showing a lack of concern with correcting less critical problems. He suggested only to 'use more eyes drops' for my chronically irritated eyes with pterygiums that bother me on a daily basis.
What went well
  • Wait times
What could be improved
  • Difficult to schedule appointment
  • Didn't listen or answer questions
  • Didn't explain conditions well
  • Appointment was rushed
