Patient Reviews
Apr 05, 2023
Today was my first visit with Dr. Gerber. I was seen within 10 minutes of checking in by a pleasant nurse who took my vitals. I was immediately at ease as he was very cordial, asked a bunch of relevant questions, looked at the documentation I brought with me, asked my opinions, talked to me about possibilities, did not gaslight me (we've all been there), came up with an initial plan that made perfect sense to me and although it was a quick appointment (that, too, makes sense as there isn't much to do without new lab work and MRIs to work off of), I didn't feel rushed or that we missed anything. I left the appointment with a plan, a prescription that should help, MRIs to be scheduled, and I had my blook work done downstairs at the outpatient lab. Both the person who checked me in and the person who checked me out were helpful and personable, as were the lab personnel. I don't know what future visits will look like, but I am certainly comfortable with the outcome of this one.
