What Our Patients Have To Say
Dr. Gilbert thank you for performing my surgery!!
Dr. Gilbert took me through every step of my surgery. He explained the procedure detail for detail. He was so wonderful and considerate to me and my family. He made me feel very comfortable; I was anxious about the anesthesia before entering the operating room. I arrived in the room, and he had one of my favorite gospel songs playing. It put a big smile on my face, and I completely calmed down. I appreciate his professionalism and his excellent bedside manner.
