I highly recommend Dr. Athavale as he is excellent in his craft and provided me with outstanding care and patient service! He called me the day after my surgery to check on me and since then has texted me multiple times to make sure that I am doing well. You won't be disappointed with Dr. Athavale for your ENT needs. I will recommend him to everyone I know that needs to see an ENT specialist.

I had an excellent experience with Dr. Athavale. Dr. Athavale is an excellent surgeon who is very professional and courteous with his patients. He gave us detailed information about the diagnosis, the surgery and the post surgery treatment. The surgery went extremely well and the follow up phone call and appointments show that he genuinely cares about his patients. The staff is also very nice and accommodating. I highly recommend Dr. Athavale.

Dr. Athavale is amazing! He is the best ENT I've ever met, he is a robotic surgery guru, and he has been the quarterback for my cancer treatment and post treatment monitoring. Dr. Athavale is a collaborator, leader, and a friend. Dr. Athavale's energy, enthusiasm, and positive attitude is contagious. His office is a fun/upbeat place to be (he surrounds himself with great staff).

Dr Sanjay Athavale has been my ENT doctor for 4 years. When I first went to him I was practically living on antibiotics, due to chronic sinus infections. After be treated by him, I am now antibiotic free for two years and had no sinus infection during this horrific allergy season (2019}. Look no further; you have found THE BEST.

Unfortunately I would not recommend him. I went to him because of vertigo. An MRI of brain was done unfortunately without contrast as I had a panic attack during procedure. Dr Athavale gave me a copy of the MRI and Hearing evaluation and said problem wasn't with ears but came from higher. MRI showed I had two old infarctions in cerebellum. I was not referred to a Neurologist and sought one myself. I was told MRI looked ok...…..

I have been going to Dr. Athavale for several years. He is not only a great doctor but is very compassionate. He always takes the time to help the patient understand what is happening.
I also applaud the fact that he takes the least invasive way of solving problems The office staff has always been courteous and willing to help. I highly recommend without reservation Dr. Athavale, or Dr. A as he is better known by his patients.

I had the pleasure of shadowing Dr. Athavale for a few days, and I got to see him interact with dozens of patients. I can confidently say that Dr. Athavale is one of the most proficient and knowledgeable ENT physicians in the country. If you are looking for the best ENT care possible, you need look no further (especially if you are seeking care for sleep apnea). He is one of the only surgeons in GA qualified to implant the Inspire device. He and his staff are extremely courteous and helpful.

Dr. A is obviously a brilliant physician. However, he's abrupt and has no bedside manner. When dealing with head and neck cancers, a physician who is kind and who listens is critical.

Abrupt, rude, no follow-up, uncaring. Arrogant and narcissistic. Obviously knows his field, but terrible bedside manner. Highly not recommended.
