Madhu Gorla Md's Online Review Report Card

Dr gorla convince me to pay 3000$ extra for special lenses for cataract surgery which was totally unnecessary. Other dr told me I was ripped off and his own colleague told me the special lenses was unnecessary. Beware of this practice. Stigmatism persists and he would not consider a refund. Horrible experience. Please go somewhere else.

Best treatment ever. I had an acute health emergency while out of state. Among other issues, there were hemorrhages behind each eyeball and a retina was partially torn. It felt like my eyeballs were about to explode. My vision was highly constricted and very sensitive to light. Dr. Gorla responded immediately when contacted by my wife for advice and assistance. Over the course of several days including a weekend, he was in direct contact with both my wife and the out of state hospital doctors to manage my case. Thanks to his immediate attention and diligence, we were all able to manage to a successful outcome. Now, after four months, my vision is back to 20/20, I'm fully active and even able to drive at night. Thank you, Dr. Gorla.

Wonderful caring doctor and staff. They are patient, thorough with explanations, answer questions thoroughly. give you printed material to supplement information and all-around professional staff. I had an unpleasant and uninformed previous cataract surgery with a different physician and the one with Dr. Gorla was the exact opposite. The whole process exceeded expectations. Dr Gorla phoned me the night after my surgery to check on me even though I was scheduled to see him the following day for a post-op check.

Had two year follow-up visit, post cataract surgery on (separate occasions) both eyes. Was told my vision actually better than prior visit. His bio says accomplished surgeon. Is argue that seriously understates his competence and professionalism. I'll suggest exceptional replace accomplished. The thoroughness of each exam is impressive, looking for glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, always get the FULL treatment/examination. He's nicely conversant, detailed, can't ask for ANY better. Administrative staff also really on top of things. Saved me from an insurance coverage mistake, with their verifying coverages as opposed to trusting what my insurance carriers rep told me. That was big. I'm beyond impressed with this entire practice

Dr. Gorla performed cataract surgery on my right eye and corrected the astigmatism as well. The results are truly amazing. My vision in that eye is now crisp and clear. I can actually read street signs! I was so blown away by the results that I actually started a gratitude journal. Today he's doing the other eye, and frankly I can't wait. On top of all that he is kind and gentle and answered all my questions with genuine concern and attentiveness.

As a nurse i have worked with many other Ophthalmologist, and in my opinion Dr M. Gorla is one of the best. He recently operated on myself to remove cataract on both my eyes. He gave me choices from 3 places where he operates. I went to Northwest Surgicare in Arlington Heights i was in and out within 2 hours. I felt like i did not even had surgery. After a short nap I woke up and could see well without eyeglasses The system and procedure was very organized and smooth. Dr Gorla called me in the evening and saw him the next day st his office in Glenview. I have referred him to other members of my families and friends because I trusted him.

My three visits to this office were mixed experiences. My first appt. took 3 hours & 45 minutes to complete. When I originally made the appointment no one mentioned to me that the first appointment would be close to 4 hours. During my other two office visits the technicians & surgery coordinators (with the exception of one) were very short and curt with me. NO pleasantries were ever exchanged. Instead, they would bark out orders to me with total indifference. At no time did they ever explain what I should anticipate nor did they explain the reasons behind the various tests/procedures. However, Dr. Gorla was pleasant and professional. He explained that I needed to have a special lens put into my eye for stigmatism and that he would insert it during the cataract surgery. On my third and last visit the SURGERY COORDINATOR said I didn't need a special lens, wrote it down, and never consulted with the doctor. At that point I had had it! So, I went to a different ophthalmologist.

I find Dr Gorla to be an excellent ophthalmologist & Surgeon. He is very patient, thorough in his exams, & explaining all options available. He was my surgeon for removing cataracts, and implanting a Toric lens for my stigmatism. The surgery was painless & I had a quick recovery! I highly recommend Dr Gorla.
