Dr Gebauer was caring and professional. He was very personable and explained in detail what the x-ray showed, including positive points and reassured me that I was progressing as appropriate. He answered all of my questions and took the time I needed to feel comfortable. The office staff were excellent and very caring.
Very though and to the point with treatment. Easy to understand.
Did not have recent visit but he was always excellent in previous visits
Caring professional doctor. Thoroughly examined and diagnosed my condition recommending a viable solution to enhance my quality of life.
Way too long of wait 2 hour 45 mins, other services wonderful.
This is a wonderful medical practice.
He’s the best!
Shouldn’t have to wait 4 months for a follow up appointment because mine was cancelled due to a hurricane. Was told someone would call to reschedule & that didn’t happen.
Very professional, extremely knowledgeable about the anatomy, took plenty of time with me to explain all of my options.
Deciding to have back surgery was a major decision. Dr Gebauer was highly recommended to me by another physician. He was able to make a proper assessment and recommend the procedure necessary for me to get back to a normal active pain free lifestyle again. I was anticipating a long recovery time but to my surprise I was up on my feet going to physical therapy and getting back to normal activities much sooner than I anticipated. I can't begin to tell you how happy I am with the results of my surgery. I wish that I had done it sooner.
