The absolute best Surgeon.
Has no openings for many months
He is the best!!
First appointment. Seems well educated and then some in his field. I did some research before I went, probably will do some more, but I did book my surgery with them. I think he’s my guy.
Dr. Gustke, Staff is amazing!!!! The Dr is very much a man's man. I very rarely if ever fill out a survey but for this guy I had no choice. Yes he's that good (5 stars aint enough) he is also the guy I want to do my hip.... I may do stuff I don't want to in order to pay him including standing on corners for long periods of time but he's worth it!!!!!
Very professional and good. Enjoyed my visit.
Well run clinic; flawlessly moved thru appointment.
Dr Gustke is very knowledgeable, has a very nice bedside manner, answered all my questions, and gave me an excellent cortisone shot.
Had to wait 1.5 hours past my appointment time to be seen. No explanation nor apology's offered.
Great experience! From the moment I arrived until leaving everyone was very attentive. Susan is fantastic. Best I’ve ever dealt with. Gustke is the consummate professional. Great experience!
