Patient Reviews
Aug 21, 2019
I saw Dr. Gilbert recently for my first visit. Living in a rural area, there is a shortage of good health professionals. Dr Gilbert is an exception! He was on time for appointment, and did not keep me waiting. He listened carefully, did not rush, explained thoroughly his diagnosis, all possible results and how to follow up if needed.. His manner was concerned and friendly. I would recommend this Dr.
