In October 2020 I went to Dr Sage after a recommendation from a friend.I received lipiflow treatment for both eyes. It was only one treatment and I was skeptical. My eyes improved immediately. Since the treatment, my eyes have significantly improved. I no longer suffer the frustrating symptoms and problems associated with dry eyes. Thank you, Dr Sage, your treatment has been a life changing experience that I can recommend to anyone else with a dry eye condition. read less

And I thought our TV was dying (see attached hockey pics for manually-created approximation of what I was seeing before and after the procedure). So I went in for a consultation and was diagnosed with moderate cataracts.Dr. Sage recently (Oct/Nov. 2019) completed cataract surgeries on both of my eyes. The results are better than I had hoped. I was severely nearsighted (worse than 20/600) and had astigmatism. I needed glasses or contact lenses for over 45 years. Now, I no longer need glasses - with an occasional exception in that I sometimes use reading glasses for reading tiny tiny print. Again, better than I hoped.As other reviewers have said, Dr. Sage is very kind and has a wonderful bedside manner. On multiple occasions during the process, I had some questions. Dr. Sage was always responsive and attentive. He never made me feel like I was being rushed or brushed aside. He was patient and explained things clearly. I called the office a couple of times with some questions that I thought could be answered by an office assistant or office manager. But before I knew it, Dr. Sage was on the phone with me and took his time to address my questions/concerns.On a side note, for comparison purposes, during this process, I went to a second group for a cataract surgery consultation. Although the other group had a fancy schmancy office that reminded me of a high-end day spa, their doctors and reps made me feel like I was being a nuisance when I posed questions or concerns. Dr. Sage's office space is less pretentious and his focus is obviously on the actual procedures - which was more important to me than mood lighting and background music. Also, that other group pressured me to opt for the laser-assisted upgrade, which I could not afford. I felt like they were shaming me into spending more and I felt like their priority was to make money and my vision was in the back seat.Although Dr. Sage presented this laser assisted procedure as an option, after I told him I could not afford the upgrade, he never mentioned it again. As stated previously, the results of my procedures, even without the laser assistance, are better than I had hoped. I believe Dr. Sage is truly interested in his patients' well-being.I am so grateful to have connected with Dr. Sage for my cataract surgical procedures and I highly recommend him to anyone else who is considering the same procedure. read less

Dr. Sage was able to get me in. He was able to remove the metal pieces from my eye in just a few minutes and got me some drops to prevent infection. I went to the front expecting to pay an arm and a leg and the pricing was very reasonable considering the circumstances. Dr. sage will be my opthamoligist now after this visit. I will see you again hopefully for a regular check up, thank you so much! read less

I came home last week after cataract surgery and for the first time in 10 years, I can read the captions on my TV without squinting...I can read my books without moving them back and forth in order to focus and once again, I can drive at night.Thank you, Dr. Sage, for your kindness, patience and best of all, making me feel whole again. And I can't end this without asking...Does your staff take "a happy pill" before coming to work? Because they always made me feel like I was the only patient in the room. read less

This is really amazing because I've worn glasses since I'm five years old and contacts since 11. I was super nervous but everything went more than great. Dr. Sage was extremely professional but also warm and the staff was very nice about putting me at ease. I want to specially mention Ariana and Araceli who bought do a great job. Dr. Sage owns his own surgery center so everything is under his control so that is also very reassuring. All the staff in the office are very professional and caring. thank you. read less

It's not too often one is so fortunate to get such a personable, sincere and compassionate doctor, to put you at ease, gain your confidence and make you laugh. I did my research and found him to have a stellar reputation. My primary care physician and optometrist both agree that he's a thoroughbred and a lovely person. Unfortunately, due to HMO shenanigans, because he doesn't belong to a mega specialty group, I am not able to get the second surgery by him. It was a sudden and brutal change in their policy. I have never been so saddened by anything like this. As a matter of fact, I am not following through with that surgery until absolutely necessary per my optometrist's advice. Dr Sage worked on my more problematic eye first, for which I am grateful. The monster medical group wants to send me to a factory. I had an initial consultation with an entirely cold and robotic ophthalmologist who's a part of a huge group. They have more than a few terrible reviews on Yelp. As my optometrist said, it's the difference between going to a Jiffy Lube and an excellent mechanic who runs his/her own business. read less

I had fallen off my glaucoma follow ups and had to go see him today. He was very thorough and detailed in my exam. I appreciate his candor and the way he makes me feel like I'm in good hands. I love Dr. Sage and could not ask for a better eye care doctor. read less

Although the wait to see him is longer than normal but he takes his time and never rushes you. He explains his diagnosis thoroughly I like his bedside manners. I myself went to him for dry eye syndrome and he resolved all the problems I had in one visit while I was being treated by another eye doctor for 3 consecutive months without improvement. Now I am ready to have cataract surgery next month and without a doubt I'm having Dr Sage do it. read less

Dr Sage and his staff were lovely. The equipment was state of the art and all were very knowledgeable. Dr Sage also gave me some great advice about general eye health care and suggested I come back in a year to have the test again to continue prevention with early detection. I will be doing that. I also really like the location as there are not many doctors on the Eastside I trust. I would recommend Dr. Sage office. read less
