Dr. Pautler is efficient, and caring. He gets you in and out in a reasonable time, but there is sufficient time for you to ask questions and get answers. His technicians are equally thoughtful and kind but work efficiently explaining each step before the proceeding.

Dr. Pautler, always greets you with a smile and a handshake along with such a calm tone in his voice! A lot of people come in there and don’t know what’s going on and scared. His calmness fills the room and reassures you that everything is gonna be OK. He explains everything in detail and is very thorough! Wish we had more doctors in this world like him!

good doctor

Aug 5, 2024
As a retired physician, I can say with certainty that Dr Pautler is one of the most knowledgeable, skilled, and professional physicians I have ever known. I am grateful to be his patient and although I no longer live in Tampa, I travel to Tampa from either Sarasota or North Carolina to receive his care. I would have it no other way. I must also compliment his entire staff for their friendliness and professionalism. His office is the most efficient medical office I have visited.

I would recommend Dr. Paulter to anyone needing a Retina specialist. He and his team are very thorough and informative. Dr. Paulter explains things that one can understand. Answers all questions.

I have been seeing Dr. Pautler for 3 years, every 6 months, to follow macular degeneration. His office is clean, well-lit, and has comfortable seating. His front-office staff are friendly and professional. The back-office technicians are skilled as well as friendly and professional. Dr. Pautler takes his time during his examination – he is clearly taking a careful look. He is very good at explaining things, and has an exemplary bedside manner. This is what I could have said about him for the last 3 years. Now, I want to add something very positive from the last visit. I needed to be worked in for an unscheduled visit, due to a concern raised by a neurosurgeon at a different office, due to an abnormal neuro-ophthalmological exam at a third different office. The staff got me an appointment within 2 days. He saw me and determined that there was no change in my macular degeneration that could account for the concern by the neurosurgeon. He made the extra effort to advise me to have my neuro-ophthalmological exam repeated. I repeated the exam, and the exam was different, and no longer concerning. Dr. Pautler’s hunch saved me from a dangerous and probably fruitless surgical procedure. In addition, his staff went above board to secure the rapid appointment to his office. He has my highest recommendation, and deep thanks.

Dr Pautler is circumspect, interested in teaching the patient without haste. I am sure I got the best medical advice possible.

Jul 2, 2024
Extremely knowledgeable Doctor, thorough, interested in patient, answers questions, provides necessary information, paces return visit to coincide with patient status, has extremely competent well trained support staff. If you need an eye specialist--he is the one.
