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.

Pretty Horrible Customer Service
I waited in an exam room for well over an hour beyond the time of my appointment. No one checked in, explained why there was a delay, or when I might actually expect to see Dr. Gusz. The staff also informed me that my scheduled outpatient procedure was, in fact, just a consultation and not a surgery. So, in spite of following all of the pre-surgery prep from my primary care physician (no blood thinners, etc.), I was not going to get the surgical procedure that day. At an hour and 10 minutes past my appointment time I left the office.

Very long wait time in his office to be seen.
On two occasions I have left his office due to extremely long wait times to be seen. The first time he called and left a message to please come back. I went ahead and had a minor surgery by him that went well. The hospital staff took good care of me. However, I cannot fully recommend his office unless patients have no jobs to go to, other things to do with their time other than wait for long periods of time before you will be seen by the doctor, while you can hear just about everything between patient examination rooms, where he chats with his patients with no apparent sense of urgency that he has other patients waiting. I had to leave today for the second time without having him evaluate a surgical incision. I will take care of it myself. I waited 70 minutes today before leaving.

Dr. Gusz was extremely wonderful when I was under his care for 3 months. He took his time with us, answered our questions, and made me feel comfortable when going through a rough time. If you’re looking for someone who knows how to joke, and be serious when necessary, Gusz is for you. I would recommend him time and time again.

I am so grateful for the competence, expertise and kindness that I received while under Dr. Gusz's care. I will be recommending his services to anyone who is seeking a good surgeon. Good care is worth waiting for, so take a good book to read while waiting to see him in the office :).
