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.

We were very pleased with Dr. G and his staff. I don't think we waited two minutes before being seen! He spent time with us examining, asking questions, and teaching us. We highly recommend him!

Dr. G is truly a wonderful physician and person. He started caring for our daughter at 18 months, and won her over quickly. She went from fearful and apprehensive to excited about upcoming appointments, knowing even that she would have to have lab work done. No four year old likes doing that! We did a few short term moves, and during that time Dr. G was still a lifeline for us. When our daughter was hospitalized out of state, we called his office, and he returned our call personally so quickly. He continued checking in on our daughter and talking to other physicians collaborating her care. It was amazing to have someone in our corner that we knew was looking out for our kid’s best interests. We had an insurance issue regarding medication, and he went to fight the problem on our behalf. He literally goes above and beyond the call of duty and walked us through the initial fear that comes with a possible lifelong diagnosis. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. G!

From the moment he came in he was trying to explain to us all of the things that he did not think my son had. He criticized our doctor for sending him to him in the first place and did not try to figure out why my son is in so much pain. He only asked us yes or no questions and never let us explain what the pain feels like or what makes it worse. He told us all of the things that he did not have and had no idea what he does have and didn't care to figure it out.

Attentive, thorough and courteous. Dr G also plainly cares about the patient's understanding of injury, treatment and expectation of recovery. These are increbibly important to a patient's family.

Dr. Guirola has a very unique perspective because he specializes in rheumatology and sports medicine. He has been able to get to the root of the problems with my children's health after they have seen numerous physicians that were unable to diagnose them properly. When I have taken my children to see him he has listened attentively to my concerns. He is very knowledgeable and does very thorough examinations. My family has seen many medical professionals and he has amazed us.
