La Verne, CA Drs and Health Practioners

Since 1997, board-certified ophthalmologist Dr. Ferzaad Moosa has performed more than 60,000 LASIK procedures, gaining a level of expertise that inspired Top 10 LASIK to name him one of California's 10 best surgeons. After receiving his MD from Harvard Medical School, the doctor served an internship in Internal Medicine at UCLA and completed a three-year residency at the esteemed Doheny Eye Institute.

Dr. Moosa corrects nearsightedness and farsightedness with increasingly advanced laser systems, employing wavefront-optimized technology to automatically compensate for the curvature of the cornea while reducing negative side effects such as poor night vision or spontaneous disco-ball mirages. The machine also tracks the position of the eye 200 times every second, instantly pausing if it moves out of range.

When he's not doing missionary ophthalmic work in Mexico or providing eye care for victims of domestic abuse, Dr. Armin Vishteh partakes in continuing medical-education courses to stay up to date with industry techniques and help bestow patients with the best care possible. The American Board of Ophthalmology–certified medical director of Rancho Laser Vision Center has corrected nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism in more than 20,000 eyes with laser-based LASIK and PRK procedures. Before bolstering patients’ blinkers, Rancho Laser Vision Center offers a complimentary consultation, during which Dr. Vishteh discusses their vision health and how it may affect their eligibility for laser vision correction or x-ray-vision installation.

At Advance Detox Center, certified colon hydrotherapists use FDA-approved devices to gently remove excess waste. Optional aromatherapy stimulates the senses with soothing fragrances as clients experience the cleansing benefits of the gravity-fed Libbe open system or the staff-controlled Dotolo closed system. The knowledgeable technicians use disposable tubing to ensure cleanliness, and can enhance colon-hydrotherapy sessions with health-boosting add-ins such as acidophilus, aloe vera, coffee, or liquefied sunshine.

In addition to colonics, the crew offers detoxifying treatments such as infrared-sauna therapy, ionic footbaths, and ear candling.

Started as a single Newport Beach clinic in 1971, Lindora was the brainchild of Dr. Marshall Stamper, who was motivated by the unfortunate loss of his mother due to weight-related complications. Now, more than 40 years later, Lindora's weight-loss programs continue to bestow humanoids with a plethora of personalized nutrition plans and private one-on-one health consultations. At over 40 Southern California locations, medically trained teams of healthcare professionals guide patients through lab work, health assessments, and exams to discern the most efficient trajectory into better health. Patients receive encouragement to adjust their lifestyle and behavior, and bellies stay buoyed by nutrition support and menu plans that spotlight fresh, balanced meals.

Long-term weight maintenance is the goal of the clinic's medically based programs, which means patients needn't worry about extra pounds boomeranging back into their lives like a persistent pet chinchilla. Check the FAQ page here for more information about Lindora's approach to weight loss.

The good doctors Greenway and Guevara work in tandem with a staff of trained dental technicians to preserve, polish, and whiten choppers with a stockpile of dental services. In addition to routine cleanings and checkups, Greenway Dental Excellence straightens crooked chompers with Invisalign, brightens smiles with painless light-based teeth whitening, and tags out bicuspids due for retirement with dental implants, bridges, and veneers. The dentists also provide sedation for patients with anxieties, phobias, or teeth guarded by miniature junkyard dogs.

When skimming Dr. Robert T. Lin’s credentials, the number 25,000 stands out. It represents how many successful refractive surgeries he has completed in his career. One can only assume that several of those tallies come from the time he spent developing Micro-LASIK, a form of laser eye surgery considered less invasive than traditional LASIK because it creates a thinner corneal flap and no longer requires eyes to answer personal questions such as “When is the last time you had direct contact with a contact?” Dr. Lin founded IQ Laser Vision in 1999 and has since added an equally as skilled staff of fellow eye doctors who specialize in refractive eye surgery procedures, cataracts, Ortho-K, contact lenses, and pre- and post-operative eye care.
