Needed to get my computer battery replaced. Service was fast and cheap, and Jamie was very polite and informative. Would highly recommend.
I have used Jamie for many years both for my personal home computers and for my business in Davis. Jamie is excellent at what he does! His prices are very reasonable. He gets the work done quickly and Ive always been satisfied. Hes come to my business on super short notice and solved problems that would have been very costly. Highly recommend!!!
Quick, reasonable prices and capable. Whats not to like.
Took my laptop here after I spilled water on it and it died. Jamie was able to dry it out and get it running again. Very knowledgeable, quick & responsive communication, and excellent value. Will return to him again in the future if I need to. Thanks Jamie!!!
Jamie was a master at untangling several of my computer problems in less than an hour! I know exactly who to call the next time I need help! Thank you!
“Reset ur monitor before considering that the issue was on ur pc! ”It turns out that my desktop has no issue at all, and the problem was on my monitor. The old guy said he run the computer well and happily took 45$ from me. Guess he loves money so much.Advice:try ur best to avoid handing ur pc to someone u don’t know, try to google it first.1st: reset ur monitorIf pc still doesn’t work:2nd: check if u can get into windowsIf pc still doesn’t work:3rd: reset the system, or run it in safe modeIf problem still happens from time to time:update driver, update system, or reset systemIf u cannot get into system:4th: rest the biosif the pc still doesn’t not work, then google againStill not working, handing to repair shop where u can monitor them.response to the shop owner: I told him that the issue was that my monitor turns black screen when the pc was connected to in display port. And my display still black when I get the pc back and plugged in, after he said ”I repaired the pc”. it works only after figured out that the problem was on my monitor and I reset my monitor, which has nothing to do with him. He said nothing about removing the virus when he handed the pc back to me, and updating os is nothing I asked him to do. I am 100% sure that there was not virus on my pc before I handed the pc to him. Finally when I got my pc back, system system language is still in Chinese, which I believe he doesn’t not understand a single character of.
Jamie is awesome. He set up my new computer over a year ago and retrieved things from my very old one that I didnt think anyone could do. I needed him to help me reset my desktop icons today and he flew right through the whole process in 1/2 hour. I recommend him highly for whatever project you may have.
Great service at a great price. Good turn around time and covid safe.
Called him up, and he was honest about it being cost prohibitive in fixing my laptops keyboard. I appreciated his honesty and integrity. Hes got my business in the event that I need him!
Dropped my laptop and I needed the bottom re-secured. Very last minute, I came by and dropped off my laptop. He replaced the screws and made sure everything was good for to go $20, all in an hour. THANK YOU!!!! Great service, super nice guy
A pleasant surprise. I went here on a Sunday because my laptop crashed and it was the only place open. Initially I was a bit skeptical but the service was great, very friendly, professional and supportive. All for a very reasonable price. Thank you very much!
The Computer Doctor was the only servicer available to remove a virus from my MacBook days before Thanksgiving. It cost only $45 and was ready the same day! I am so glad that I found him. As a college student, your computer is everything. I havent had a problem since.
Very happy with Jamies services. Initially I called about getting my trackpad replaced and mentioned my battery was getting bad too. He told me to buy a battery on amazon and bring it to him for replacing, and also stated that he would take a look at the trackpad to see if it actually needed repairing (he had his doubts with the symptoms I described.)Before finding the Computer Doctor, I went to Tech2u in Vacaville where they gave me an estimate of $70 -but after a week and a half without my laptop they finally diagnosed the problem AFTER I called them for an update, and wanted to charge me $330 just to replace the trackpad. Jamie replaced my battery, cleaned up my trackpad and got my trackpad working in almost perfect condition, he also replaced missing screws for only $20. Not to mention I dropped off my laptop and picked it up on the same day, it only took him an hour!Jamie is honest, trustworthy, and very informative. I highly recommend his services and will be returning for future needs.
Inexpensive funky work that solved my problem without fuss. Seems very trust worthy and direct.
The desktops Ive brought here have all been fixed perfectly, or arrived broken beyond repair. If your computer has any chance of being saved, the computer doctor is your best bet. Hes also honest and fair about his rates, and perhaps more generous with his services than he could be (though he likely knows how underappreciated his field is). I think he can also do house calls though Ive never had the experience of one.Very pleasant experience, will be coming to him every time I have an issue.
The Computer Doctor has been our families go to tech support for almost 10 years and has fixexd all our problems on time every time.
He is honest, friendly, professional!Highly recommended! Thanks for his help again!
Computer Doctor is honest and trustworthy and can fix pretty much any issue you bring to him. Ive used CD for full network setups as well as simpler laptop and phone fixes. Never been disappointed. Highly recommend.
I am extremely pleased working with Jamie, the owner. He is very knowledgeable, professional . I highly recommend having him take care of all of your computer needs.
The Computer Doctor fixed my Mac with great attention to detail. He is very easy to talk to and very courteous; I will keep using him because I know he can help me keep my equipment in top shape.
Excellent source for a wide range of computer repair assistance. Jamie is easy to speak with and works diligently to fix your computer issues. Lastly, I found the Computer Doctor to be very reasonable on price. Thanks Jamie, A+++
James Morton is the wizard of the computers. Awesome attention. Outstanding customer service. 100% satisfaction.
Great guy, very helpful and professional. Hes also very flexible about drop off and pickup times. He did a deep recovery on my external hard drive and Im most grateful.
Good price along with being super helpful, fast, and friendly. I honestly felt like he was trying to do his best job repairing my computer as quickly as possible.
I found computer doctor on google and could not be more pleased with my experience! I needed a battery replacement for my vintage macbook pro that Apple would no longer service. I e-mailed them to see if they would be able to help out, they responded very quickly, and an added bonus was that theyre just a few blocks from my house! The turn around time was just a few hours, as promised, and my laptop works great. I was away for a trip. They were also very kind with holding onto my computer for a few days until I could get into the store to pick it up.
My experience with the Jamie, The Davis Computer Doctor, over many years, has been simply beyond description, with --Countless rescues, some I thought unlikely or doubtful,Charges always considerably below others rates, andGreat advice, often free, saving me money time and again.In the most recent case, well over a year ago and still ongoing, I have saved hundreds of dollars by taking Jamies advice on a difficult (for me) decision which involved switching from one operating system to another. His advice proved right, but the dollars I have saved have come right out of Jamies own pocket -- and he knew they would if I followed his advice. I had been paying Jamie over a long period of time for removal of viruses contracted by my computers due to my persistence in opening email solicitations from unknown sources. My visits to Jamie were high anxiety time -- excepting for his charges.One day Jamie began telling me that those expenditures could be avoided if I would simply switch to a different brand of computer, one whose operating system was extremely hacker-unfriendly and known for the paltry rewards it allowed hackers in return for their efforts. Jamie cautioned me that hackers around the world were beginning to ramp up their attempts to break through this brands defenses and that this safe-haven might not last forever. So, despite having to learn a new computer operating system, I went ahead with his suggestion, hopeful for some relief from the virus torture even for a limited time.Fast forward to today. The computer he recommended has been remarkably free of viruses and problems since I took Jamies advice. Today, I can truthfully say from long personal experience that Jamie the Computer Doctor is an expert in a class all by himself, with integrity to match his awesome expertise. (dcm - February, 2017)
Great service, great prices
Ive utilized the services of The Computer Doctor for over 10 years both professionally and personally. Jaime is the best! Knowledgeable, great customer service, timely, responsible and affordable. Thank you, Jaime.
Jaime was less than keen to open my system and replace the fan that needed fixing, but he told me he would clean it for $25.00, and he charged me a fee of $2.00 for using credit. A month later, I dropped my laptop on the floor and needed a much bigger repair. When the repairman opened the machine, it was very dusty. Obviously he hadnt even CLEANED it. The repairman did the major repair and then charged me only an additional $20 (parts and labor) to replace the fan.
I had My laptop, which is My main computer, break. I cannot stand desktops and I didnt want to replace this fairly new laptop so I needed it fixed. I have used computer doctor for smaller jobs in the past. Data transfer and recovery. I have sensitive data on My computer and privacy and discretion is of the utmost importance. This little computer doctor is super helpful, explains everything, has reasonable charges and can diagnosis anything! I was informed it would take 2 days which I was willing to wait because I needed this machine fixed. After I gave My approval he went about fixing it and I picked it up 2 days later, just as promised. No hidden charges and no unexpected delays. I will be back whenever My computer needs doctoring!
I have been going to Jaime for 10 years. If anyone writes a poor review I would not trust them. Jaime is incredibly efficient and honest.Also, his prices are more than reasonable. He is the BEST!!!
We called and within two hours our computer was repaired and back in operation! Extremely professional, knowledgeable and responsive. A fantastic and positive experience and highly recommend the Computer Doctor! Lou Z
My husband I had a major issue with our computer. We live outside of Winters, and there was power surge. Both computer would not boot up, he had medical appointments this week, actually tomorrow. There are important files related to his medical condition on both computer, but no where else. Monday morning we brought both computers to Jamie, Computer Doctor. We just picked up the computers this evening he had them for a little over a day. All the data was in place, and both computers are working fine. He suggested a back up system on line that he had a discount for that saved us $20 dollars. The back up service is with a online company so for $39 a year all the important files are backed up. He gave us a two for one discount for the data recovery, and the entire job was the cost of a dinner out. We can now go to the medical appointment, and are protected with our data backed up. We read all the reviews, on both yelp and google before we contacted Computer Doctor. We were impressed with all the positive reviews, there are some negative reviews, that is normal, no business ever pleases everyone. Overall our experience was positive, and Computer Doctor solved our problem. Highly Recommend. Joan and Jim Davis
Very friendly and super professional. Took in my computer to get a new graphics card and a cleaning. He had it finished for me the following day! Not only is he fast, his prices are outstanding. Will be using him from now on.
Wow!! I found Jamie on Google called him and my issue was resolved within thirty minutes! Im a retired software support person so I struggled with my issue for three hours before I called Computer Doctor, Jamie knew about an Apple OS bug the was an issue my older MacBook Pro laptop. I was so impressed with his knowledge, professionalism and kind manner. Ill be using Computer Doctor for all of my technology issues!
I had a small issue that because I gave him to fix it! now I need to buy a new computer and all of my stuff that were on the computer now I need to organize it again! because he destroyed my computer and it would take me some good months to do it!!!!! And it took him like two weeks to do it so that is very helpful....
Great service and very trustful! I went in to see why my PC tower wasn’t no getting a DVI connection. Next day they told me the very simple problem(lose hardware). And it was fixed. He even came to check the computer out for a second time at my place. It was a silly problem by my part. And he was very nice to come all that way to see.
Never used his service before but hes a good man and seems to be running a quality business, he donated a couple computer parts and a functional computer to my 4-H project and was kind and helpful with showing us what he had to offer
Great service, arrives in a timely manner and he really knows his way around a computer. Any questions I had he could answer them. Thank you and I look forward to doing business with you in the future.
Coffee Spill this morning, so much work to complete, I thought my computer was done for, called computer doctor, He quoted me $45 to dry out the computer, compared with others that were quoting $200 to $400 to clean the logic board, this option seemed the best to me. Computer Doctor was crystal clear he was not cleaning the logic board, he would professionally dry out the computer. 6 hours later I picked my computer, and have been working on it for hours. Computer Doctor recommended I back up the computer asap, that would not be sure the computer would stay running for a few days. I completed the back up right away, and have been working on the computer. I really appreciate his honesty and quick service. Would recommend this service over all others. JB
Fantastic guy provides high quality service with low charge!How can that be better!
The Computer Dr. just left our house -- and once again we are VERY happy campers!His vast techie knowledge is so impressive -- and yet he is extremely patient with we who are humble computer newbies.He worked with our multiple devices at the same time fixing various problems, setting up a new tablet, upgrading security protection, etc. ... all the time explaining what we need to know in terms we can understand.Not only was he able to give a next-day apt, he most expeditiously took care of all our needs and concerns. We will definitely be using him again as needs be -- and we would highly recommend his services. Thanks Doc!
Theyre a very talented and honest technician with very affordable prices. They went the extra mile with recovering my very messed up data. They even called the recovery software program and got a new version for my data. All this for 50 dollars is a great deal. He told me the next level would cost thousands because it involved an isolation chamber and powerful machinery. The computer doctor seems to be the best affordable repair before going off the deep end, as they have plenty of their own machinery. Great person to work with as well.
The Computer Doctor was able to get rid of malware on my Mac in short order and at a reasonable price. He also added his favorite adware removal tool. He went the extra mile in working with my schedule and I had my Mac back within 24 hours. Im new to the Davis/Sacramento area and had seen his great reviews on Google and Yelp. What a relief to find someone I can trust.
During finals week my hard drive crashed, so my computer wasnt booting up. Naturally I panicked, but I called the computer doctor and he immediately knew what was wrong. I got my computer back the next day, and I couldnt be happier. He is also very fairly priced. Highly recommend.
Worked with Computer Doctor for years, he just helped me with a complex email issue and data recover. Great job as usual. Bob
I called to ask if my laptop could be fixed. I had accidentally spilled coffee on it and turned it off immediately. An hour later, after all of the water had been pushed out by a compressed- gas duster, I turned it back on. Everything was working fine but 6 keys were sticky. I wanted to know if they were able to clean these keys underneath the key board. When I told the man on the phone that I had a ASUS Chromebook, he laughed, said they do not work on computers that have so little value, and told me that no computer repair shop would help me. When I replied with my laptop cost me over $500 dollars he responded with, it is what elementary schools provide for students, the only way to break them is to pour liquid on them which you apparently did. You are better off getting another computer that is capable of doing more then checking your email. He also told me to just keep it off for a few days and hope for the best. The man was extremely rude and assumed that because I had a Chromebook it was worth no more than $150. I have a feeling he treated me this was because I am a female college age student.
From time to time I have called Computer Doctor, Jamie for several years, and he is the best in town, very reasonable in price, honest and very knowledgable, I have been a long time PC user and Jamie has kept my old dell running good for years. My daughter talked me into getting a Mac, and I was worried that Jamie might not work on Mac computers, no worry there, because Jamie knows Mac as well, he set me up with both windows 7 on my mac running boot camp and so now I have both a PC and Mac all in one. He is so easy to deal with, and has spent hours helping me with the transistion, with a fee that is very reasonable. I feel so confident knowing I have my own IT person just a call away. I highly recommend Jamie, Computer Doctor. Penny
Being a Mac user and new to windows, i had the computer doctor set up my new windows laptop. I am so glad he did, especially the virus protection help he offered and overall use of the machine. Great Service. Thank you
I was in Davis to visit my daughter, but had plenty of work I needed to finish. When I arrived at the hotel, my laptops battery had suddenly become detached...it was such a strange experience because I had no idea what had caused this to occur. I then compounded the problem by trying to fiddle [and push in] the battery. I called James at 320 pm and he said he thought he could fix it although he had a 4 pm appointment. I drove right over (he works out of his home at the end of a cul de sac...I thought I was lost at first. He not only was able to use his tools to address the problem (which I had made worse) so that the battery slotted right back in, but charged too LITTLE! He was extremely pleasant to boot. Then, he took the time to send me a link to the battery I would want to obtain if I wanted to possess a backup, but he believed that it was unnecessary.Thank you. Remarkably competent, pleasant and reasonable!
This guy sucks, gave him my computer then a week later called me back and said he couldnt do anything because it was a motherboard issue and not worth doing anything, then charged me $20. I gave the computer to my 17 year old brother who just fixed it himself with no formal training whatsoever.
To everyone in a tech-panic right now, strolling trough the internet looking for a computer repair service: your search ends here.This is literally the b e s t service Ive ever had. And I must admit, Im usually not the type to write reviews whatsoever.But when its good, it has to be said.my story short: liquid damage on my 3 y/o macbook. Thought that I had damaged my computer. I already saw myself breaking up my savings account to buy a new macbook. (im a student at Davis, for research and internship, so really need a computer) But 1 day later Computer Doctor had dried the computer out, and $45 dollars later my computer is all fixed.GO THERE GO THERE GO THERE!
Came in to drop off my Dell XPS 13 because it wouldn’t boot. The “computer doctor” gave it to me 2 days later saying he couldn’t get it to boot. He said he recovered the memory and wanted to charge me $15 and he charged me $25 for his “attempt “ He said it wouldn’t be worth fixing it because it was the mother board. So I called the Dell customer seevice which said the would charge me $329 to extend my warranty. I decided to sell the laptop to make some of my money back. The man I sold it to said he didn’t have experience with computer but he liked to mess around with them. He messaged me a while later asking for my passcode because he got the computer running. He said it was a falce contact and a burnt out resistor. Im very disappointed with my loss of money but hopefully I save someone else from this horrible feeling I have at the moment :(
Excellent knowledge helpful and reasonable charges.Mark P.Harris MD Vacaville California
Fantastic! He is so patient with his clients and really helped my parents with their pc through a semi-critical problem. I highly recommend The Computer Dr.
