I like him

First consultation. Impressed with his demeanor and advice.

He is highly knowledgeable and has a pleasant manner.

He's a real pro !

Very professional and seems trustworthy

This was my second visit with Dr. G. He took the time to study my medical history and to explain the reasons for the tests, and the results of the tests.

After he came in it appeared that he wanted to get me out. I had to ask him to evaluate a more severe condition that was later found and was handled very well with emergency surgery.

He needs to look at the person when explaining things not away from them.

He has earned my respect

Excellent eye surgeon!

very knowledgeable, very thorough

He is extremely good at doing what he does. He cares about the patient. He is very aware of keeping the environment sterile. He is highly respected by his staff and works very well with them. He is quick and doesn't waste any time, but is thorough.

He explained procedures well and didn't recommend anything that was unnecessary. He apologized for having to wait. I didn't mention or complain about wait times so I was impressed by this!

Dr G is very thorough and personable.

Very nice, able to understand what he is explaining and also explained what he was doing!

Dr. G is very knowledgeable, explains treatment thoroughly, and I am very happy to have him as my new Ophthalmologist.

he was patient with my questions and very professional.

I appreciate his willingness to carefully answer questions I have. He explains recommended actions and has given me information relating to possibilities for treatment down the road if current treatments aren't working. He gives pros & cons relating to any recommendations for care.

I liked that Dr. "G" showed me various images taken and what they meant and asked several times about any questions I had that he quickly answered.

Thank you!

Doctor Ghoghawala es muy amable, profesional y atento Estoy muy feliz y agradecida por sus atenciones (English translation: Doctor Ghoghawala is very kind, professional, and attentive. I'm very happy and grateful for his care.)

Wait times really need to be addressed

He explained the tests that were done and the results.

As new to me, he was well informed about my eye history.

This was my first visit with Dr G. He knew about me and my condition and did a complete check of my eyes. Gave me good input and offered options for future care procedures. A very nice man who seemed to genuinely care about me and my vision.

Having appointments so far apart (3 months IF I am able to schedule on-the-spot) sometimes has felt like a HUUUUGE problem for me!!!! Everything else has been great.

He listened carefully and answered all my questions so that I understood.

He provided a detailed explanation of the condition of my eyes.

professional, relatable and willing to answer all of my questions. I enjoyed my visit with him.

Excellent care.

The doctor is good; the scheduling/waiting is terrible.

I mentioned a lot in the previous fields thank you for your care. I’m very anxious about the surgery.

He listened to me and was the only Eye Doctor who validated my concerns

This was the first time I met this provider. He was Knowledgeable, focused, positive, upbeat.

Very thorough

As stated before..Dr.G seemed a bit distracted and disconnected..was nice but ..

First appointment with them, he went step by step explaining results of my testing, history, and making a plan to move forward. Appreciated the honesty of his explanations and allowing me input in future follow ups.

Very demanding,necessarily so, with trying to get everything done in a limited amount of time. His breath was a little offending.

Knowledgeable, professional caring courteous

He sat down with me and took time to go over my medical history concerning my eye condition, let me know issues that may come up in future and took adequate time with me during my appointment. I didn't feel rushed.

Since the new clinic in Sun Prairie requires a much longer trip for me, he suggested that he could see if another ophthalmologist at the west Madison clinic might be available for future exams. Since this was my first visit with Dr. Ghghawala (my previous Dr. had retired), I thought that this was very considerate. But since I was pleased with his exam, I will continue to make the longer trip in the future.

Excellent.

Very knowledgeable and professional.

Professional

an excellent surgeon who knows his skill sets,was able to explain the procedure in detail and made complete risk analysis

Dr. G has been treating me for a re-occurring eye infection. Which has and is difficult. His attention to my needs has been and is exceptional.

he was trying to explain my eye situation to me while I was in the middle of his examination. I was unable to really have a conversation about the situation and ask questions. Felt I was being pushed to have the cataract procedure without fully understanding the options or timing.

He was very pleasant and seemed to know his stuff

Dr G. Is understanding and listens. It is refreshing

Dr. Ghoghawala did a great job of explaining all aspects of the procedure and necessary post procedure steps.

The appointment felt rushed and he spent most of the time documenting things in the computer and not even looking at me when he was talking.

He was very personable, listened closely to my concerns and cared!! I truly wish I could have him as my doc, but the east side of Madison is just too far away for me!

As I sad, he is not robotic, all verbal interactions were ‘clipped’ as in a race. Not a relational person. I will find a different provider.

Gracias por ser amable con los pacientes (English translation: Thank you for being kind with the patients.)

This was my first visit with Dr. Ghoghawala. He was well versed regarding my history with previous care givers at the clinic.

Dr. G. is very professional and he's the only doctor that I know that wears a suit and stylish socks.

A professional, knowledgeable and thorough surgeon. I would highly recommend him

Dr, G. provided me with a thorough explanation of my procedures and discussed their results. He took the time to include me in these discussions. Excellent service.

very interested in my health

This was my first time seeing this doctor. He had obviously researched my records before this appointment and was very familiar with my medical history. He was very knowledgeable, professional and cordial.

Excellent doctor. My only complaint I had 2 cancelations which too an additional 2 months before I saw him. Not pleased with that at all.

He was very polite, seemed knowledgeable and concerned about my eye condition. I've only met him once.

Amazing friendly, explains my problems well.

En mis citas que he tenido han sido conmigo el personal excelentes, espero y en mis próximas citas tenga la misma atención con las personas que me Han atendido para mí son excelentes personas Gracias por esa paciencia me siento agradecida (English translation: In the appointments that I've had, the staff has been excellent with me. I hope that in my next appointments I receive the same care. As far as the people who have seen me, they have been excellent people. Thank you so much for your patience, I feel grateful. )

Very thoughtful

I had to wait a long time in the room to see him which was inconvenient.

Because he inherited me as a patient, I couldn't get in as soon as I wanted. Every one seemed overwhelmed to me.

He was personable, professional, and attentive. He knew my history and explained things very clearly. Dr. Geanon had said he would ensure I had someone "good" when he retired, and he was right. My second Dr. G and I'm very pleased.

This was my first visit with Dr. Ghoghawala after the retirement of Dr. Geanon. He took the time to study notes in my file and was thorough in the discussion of my history and current check up.

Dr. Ghoghawala was great, although it seemed he wasn't listening at times. To be fair, he was inputting information at the time.

Very knowledgeable about my needs and suggested solutions without pressure

Excellent doctor

Wasn't very apologetic for being so late.

He is a good Dr. and checks the history carefully but needs to face the patient when he is addressing the patient. Look eye to eye so we know he cares about the patient. SMILE !!

He appears very thorough in dealing with you. Apologetic if running late. He listens.

The Dr is excellent. The scheduling is ridiculous. The wait times are crazy, makes you want to go elsewhere

He’s very personable. And an excellent physician.
