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.

Dr. G is the absolutely the best there is. My son saw him at 9 months old. Then not again till he was 8 yrs old. But for 4 yrs he was misdiagnosed in my hometown. Dr. G looked and him and heard EVERYTHING we had to say and he listened. He cares. We son is now 18 yrs old and he looks forward to seeing Dr G. He is the only one that is allowed to touch my son and my son would agree. He is quite comical too. He is an awesome man and Dr in our opinion! We also drive almost 5 hours to see him specifically! It is worth it. We ?? you Dr. G.

Awesome doctor, he surgically repaired nasal passages on my son 12 years ago , he had great after care and office check ups. Now my son is a middle school athlete that plays select sports and has never missed a beat. We were so grateful to him for the health care services he provided to our child 12 years ago.
