Took my grandmother to see him after many failed surgeries. He is SO RUDE! DO NOT go to him. Very disappointed.

Thank you very much for your excellent work while performing surgery on me for cataract. Your skilled hand helped me to gain full sight on my left eye. I have not experienced any pain or scratching feeling after the operation and speedily recovering. I will be recommending you to everyone I know who also needs cataract surgery. Best Wishes.

I am about 2 mos in to a Cornea Transplant with Dr. Geggel. I am so pleased. He is a no-nonsense kind of doctor, so if you are looking for hand-holding, and someone to cry with you, he's not your man, but he is a FABULOUS doctor.

Overall I think he is an excellent doctor. My problem is with his rudeness to patients. Not sure why he thinks its okay to be so sarcastic to people who are paying him a lot of money. Not sure if I would use him again, just because he makes you feel like an idiot with his rude comments. I also heard from an anonymous person that he yells during surgery.

Dr. Geggel performed my surgery in early 2007. I've had perfect vision ever since. I'm very pleased with the results.

At my last appointment, I noticed his office staff doing parts of the exam that were usually done by him. I commented about that in a neutral manner to the person doing the tasks. Geggel came in and basically blasted me for daring to comment. I immediately changed docs. His bedside manner is just plain rude, and his staff are not much better. Would never go to him again or recommend him to anyone.

Dealing with Kerataconus - have had a transplant. Dr. has made sure to get a hold of me personally regarding my transplant and ensures I have the directives I need to continue my healing. If I ask questions, he gives good explanations and answers. Although he typically is busy and very focused on business, I see that as the medical industry today. Legislative changes and costs have put an emense amount of pressure on doctors. Thanks Dr. for doing what you do.
