He treated my mother and was not able to come up with a good plan of care. Contradicts himself on each visit. Total lack of bedside manners and empathy. He rushes through the examination.
Dr. Tezel ( and his amazing staff )definitely has a special Gift of instantly calming a terrified patient with his thorough and assuring knowledge and kindness while explaining your condition .He is brilliant and his background speaks for itself..I am a new patient and I am so relieved to be in the hands of Dr. Tezel who is tops in his field . It is an honor to highly recommend this very gifted Doctor. Thank God for him . A GRATEFUL PATIENT, MFD.
As an elderly lady that lives a young life,I am so very grateful to wonderful Dr Tezel. Definitely the most important Doctor in his field. He is also very kind with a charming personality. I don’t even want to think of how my eyesight and life would be without his care. Thank you so much. Dorene Burger
My partner had a macular hole. Originally he was told yrs ago he had Macular degeneration. In a recent visit to his original Dr. he was immediately sent to a specialist, belonging to the same group. I do my home work that nee Dr. did not have great reviews.I did my home work and found Dr. Tezel. A specialist does not even do the man justice. He is a brilliant dedicated surgeon who saved my mans sight. He is personable , and knowledgeable . It is hard to find a Dr who gives his time and attention .Dr Tezel gives more than Wor... read more
This is a tough one. I saw Tezel in 2018 and he was caring. A good interpreter of all the tech a retina specialist has to hand. This last visit was concerning. I have lived with type 1 diabetes for 48 years and was 'scared straight' as a kid by docs telling me I would go blind. Tezel judged my A1c (7%) and shamed me. I tried to explain that diabetes tech now focuses more on targets and besides I have almost 0 retinopathy which is a huge accomplishment. He was threatening and unkind. People who live with diabetes need encoura... read more
I had a ruptured globe and ruptured cornea and a detached retina had I 5% chance to see after two surgeries I am on the mend to a full recovery. Thank you Dr Trief and Dr Tezel.
Dr. Tezel said that the diagnosis made by my previous doctor (a prestigious researcher and clinician) was wrong. I saw another highly respected ophthalmologist after I saw Dr. Tezel, and he disagreed with Dr. Tezel and agreed with my former MD re diagnosis. Dr. Tezel refused to look at records I had brought with me saying, “I only believe what I see myself.” (Some of the records were photographs). He suggested an expensive blood test to determine the proper eye vitamins to use; this test has been discredited because the rese... read more
Awesome, he saved my eye due to a very Trumatic incident.
Dr. Tezel (actually also Professor) is the Director of the Retina Division at Columbia Presbyterian, one of the leading Ophthalmologist centers in the US. Based on my own experience, Dr. Tezel is the most caring, knowledgeable and talented ophthalmologist surgeon I ever went to. He fixed my macular pucker and hole to perfection as I now have 20/20 for the eye he operated on. I would recommend him to anyone having any sort of retina issue, and as a bonus, he has a fantastic sense of humor.
