Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Excellent professional and very friendly . Wonderful person who knows his job very well and his very compassionate doctor with his patients, in addition to having a very supportive and friendly staff. Dr.Gudis ,is the best!

I met with Dr. Gudis, to discuss his involvement in my upcoming neurosurgery. He was very sweet, more than willing to answer all questions, and provided all the information that I would need to know for my upcoming surgery. Both my husband and myself left his office with only good things to say. See you soon, Dr. Gudis!

Efficient and communicative

Dr. Gudis was one of two surgeons for my brain surgery to remove adenoma on my pituitary gland. I am 74-years old. Everything went smoothly. On the eight-day my nose packing was removed by Dr Gudis and the area flushed. He is efficient, experienced, knowledgeable and transparent in his communication with the patient. Thank you Dr. Gudis

Highest recommendation
My primary recommended Dr. Gouda as the only ENT I should see about my deviated septum and inflamed turbines. He definitively knew what needed to be done in my first visit. I am relieved to be in expert hands with my upcoming surgery and look forward to effortless breathing and peacefully sleeping, which all seemed out of reach until now.

Best ENT doctor
I continue to be impressed by the caliber of care provided by Dr. Gudis and his team. After pinpointing the diagnosis and conveying the scan results in terms easy to understand, Dr. Gudis laid out options for effective treatment of the underlying condition. Because one of the medications was not covered by my insurance, his creative thinking revealed an alternate prescription with similar outcomes while keeping the cost down. No other ENT doctor I have seen can match Dr. Gudis’ expert knowledge or keen medical observations. I am committed to working with Dr. Gudis to manage my condition.

The Best
I have seen Doctor Gudis many times and he performed a complex surgery on me in the past. He is great at explaining things to me and his friendly manner has always made me comfortable. I have a sense that he genuinely cares about me as a patient and my surgical area has healed perfectly. I wholeheartedly recommend him.

All Around Excellent
I was referred to Dr. Gudis by his colleague Dr. Caruana. Upon meeting Dr. Gudis for the first time, I was impressed with his confidence and friendly demeanor and felt completely comfortable with all his suggestions and procedures. His office staff was responsive and accommodating, and despite being busy, Dr. Gudis amazingly took the time to listen to me, return my phone calls and always approached me with humanity, patience and understanding, all blended with a good sense of humor. I am very fortunate to have been in his care the past few months - he gave me a lot of moral support during my journey and his overall excellence has been a strong and positive force in my outlook & recovery. I would give him 6 stars because he is one!
