Very friendly atmosphere all around. Dr. Gadlin is very personal and listens well. Not in a rush, explains his observations and following procedures in detail. Front desk person, very kind and considerate.

If you're looking for a place that you aren't stuck in the waiting room filling out a bunch of forms, and then move to a room to have to wait for the doctor to come in, then this is the place for you. I got back in the room quickly and the doctor is who came out to get me and then he did the review of my issues right there on the spot. Talk about personalized service. He is incredibly nice, informative and takes the time to really discuss what your problems are and what the solutions are and how we're going to move forward. I like this guy a lot.

Dr Gadlin is very caring and professional. My cataract surgeries were very easy and my eye sight is so much better. I like that he handles the complete eye experience himself. His Office Manager is very nice, helpful and professional. I would recommend this practice to everyone.

Both the receptionist and the doctor were friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. I had already been to two other doctors for my problem, and this was the first one who made me feel well cared for. Thank you!

Kudos to Dr. Gadlin, My story begins many years in the making ; last two years my cataracts had progressed so much it was like looking through a fogged up window. And I stayed like this out of fear of surgery ( what was I thinking). Well I mustered all my courage and went in for a consultation. Right from the get go, I was greeted by Miss Cybil and she was so fantastic and reassured me I had made the right choice. She was so caring and understanding. She was able to process my paperwork through the VA system flawlessly. Then I spoke to Dr. Gadlin, he was so attentive to my needs and concerns (fears). He performed multiple test to determine the true status of my eye. Yup, I was a perfect candidate for cataract surgery. He explained everything from A to Z . Show me the procedures that were to take place during surgery and most important addressed my fear of surgery. His hands were so precise and delicate during surgery and truly, in a 1 to 9 scale of pain I was a zero. Wow! and over in 20 to 25 minutes. The next day I was speechless, my sight was so perfect and the colors were so vibrant and best of all no fog! If you need a good eye surgeon, hands down the best in Athens. For me, I did my homework before selecting a Doctor and all of my research pointed to Dr. Gadlin; and you know what, it was the best decision I ever made. Every one was so professional, all the way down to the great folks at Anesthesia Consultants of Athens. Thank you , thank you for I can now see normal again.

Dr Gadlin is very thorough and personable. Would highly recommend him.

Quick, professional, and friendly. Gave me great confidence and helped me understand my more confusing symptoms. Will certainly be going back if I ever have the need.

Dr. Scotty is a great doctor. I have been his patient for 5 years.I totally recommend him

I love everything about Dr. Gadlins office. Everyone is very nice , helpful and knowledgeable.

Always positively refreshing to have a medical professional such as Dr.Scotty Gadlin providing top-drawer treatment. He is thorough, compassionate and highly skilled.

Dr. Gadlin was very thorough and explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. Took time to answer all my questions.

Prompt,courteous,looking forward to a good outcome

Dr. Gadlin provides professional and excellent care to his patients! He has been my ophthalmologist for 3 years. I can see clearly after he performed cataract surgery on me over a year ago, and he has managed my glaucoma well. He never leaves an issue or any concern unresolved. He always answers questions in a manner which is never hurried. His demeanor is one of great care for all his patients! I recommend his practice to everyone. BTW: My wife loves receiving eye care from Dr. Gadlin as well. David Hancock

This is the most pleasant office visit I have ever had anywhere! Dr. Gatlin is a kind and attentive physician. His exam was very thorough; he took unhurried time to explain his findings and treatment plan. I feel very fortunate and grateful to have such wonderful ophthalmological care.

The doctor was excellent! No complaints!

Professional and prompt! I appreciate that my appointment time is not an approximation but an actual time that Dr. Gadlin sees me.

I’ve been seeing Dr Gadlin for several years. He replaced my lens because of cataracts, a few years ago, and I’ve had no problems. He is friendly and professional. I can’t imagine I’d see any other doctor.

I was seen by Dr. Gadlin in an emergency situation. I am so glad I did. My eye was severely infected and it would have gotten way worse if left untreated. The receptionist was pleasantly nice. I did not have to wait but about 10 minutes. Dr. Gadlin was very thorough and did not make me feel uncomfortable at all. I will definitely be back!

Very pleased! Saw me right away, very thorough exam and talked to me about the problems in a way that I could understand.

The office got me in as a new patient the next day, thanks to a cancellation! The doctor was prompt, thorough, efficient, and knowledgeable. The other practices I contacted in the area did not address my concerns at all by phone, and were rude and unhelpful. The front office lady here, to the contrary, was polite, professional, and courteous both over the phone and in-person. Since moving to Athens I have been astounded by the lack of common phone courtesy and general sensibility of front office staff in medical settings. This practice would be the exception! I hope my follow up appointment goes as well as this first encounter. I highly recommend this practice!

Dr. Gadlin is very personable and friendly. He is very good at communicating and explaining what is going on with your eyes in layman terms.

Made me feel at ease explained each step of the procedure in depth and asked constantly reassured me

Dr. Gadlin explained everything concerning my eyes & the reason I needed surgery. Very professional staff, not the rush to get you in & out. Look forward to successful surgery. I highly recommend Dr. Gadlin for anyone looking for an “eye dr.”

Very professional, answering all our questions. Looking forward to a great outcome after surgery.

I was Very pleased with office staff, could not have asked for anyone to be more pleasant and helpful. Dr Gadlin was pleasant and seems very through, professional and knowledgeable. He explained to me the current condition of my eyes and explained what I could probably expect in the future concerning possible treatments. I definitely will recommend him to friends.

Individualize care. There was no rush took plenty of time With me. As my grandmother used to say he’s a very personable young man! He can be your family doctor for a long time!

Excellent experience always.

Dr Gadlin always seems to take extra effort to address my needs. I feel blessed to have him as my ophthalmologist.

Great experiance

Knowledgeable and compassionate. A perfect doctor!

I've been to a couple of different eye doctors in this area over the past few years, and Dr. Gadlin is who I'll be going back to from now on. Does a thorough exam, explains everything, answers questions patiently, talks to patients like people vs rushing them in and out. His office manager (Sybil, I think her name is?) is awesome, too--friendly and efficient!

Dr. Gadlin is an excellent ophthalmologist. He is very thorough and explains things so well. I would highly recommend him to anyone
