Dr. Yogin Patel, MD

I have seen Dr. Patel once a year and spent over $1K of my own money on his services since moving to Macon. Each visit, he spends about 5 minutes with me, is curt when answering questions, and rushes out of the room before I have a chance to ask all of my questions. Despite prompting me to schedule my most recent visit, when we met he implied that the appointment had no purpose. I don't think I've ever had a doctor give me so little consideration. Unfortunately, I still have many questions about my eye condition.

I've come to realize just how intrinsically significant a good bedside manner is to the patient experience, and in this way, Dr. Yogin Patel truly stands out as exceptional. As someone who deals with considerable health anxiety while awaiting a diagnosis, Dr. Patel's personable nature, thoughtful communications and knowledgeable confidence were a refreshing source of assurance as we navigated that process. He is honest, logical, patient, empathetic and highly capable at once - the full checklist of qualities one would hope to find in the clinical world - all in one doctor. Highly recommend.

Excellent service. Dr. Patel performed a Scleral buckle surgery to save my right vision due to a retina detachment on 04/27/2020. I must say, I was extremely nervous as it was my first ever surgery. But Dr. Patel and his team where fantastic. Post op follow up confirmed everything was perfectly done.
