Michael W. Gish, M.D.

Dr. Gish is always very congenial, and a phenomenal physician.

Nothing more could be asked. Everything right. He called the shots!

In all my appointments with Dr. Gish, I have felt valued, respected, and at ease. He takes his time to listen. He asks questions about what I want, and we make a plan.

very pleased

Dr. Gish is to the point and honest with his analysis. Which is not to say that he is short or uncaring. He has good bedside manner so to speak. I also very much trust his opinions.

Is always in good spirits and talks to patient, not at patient

Dr. Gish was recommended to me when I ruptured my right quadriceps tendon. His reputation is impeccable and the care I received from him and his staff bore that out. Thank you, thank you, thank you...

Took time to explain my options

Fast an on time.

Dr. GISH, WAS ALWAYS ATTENTIVE TO MY NEED.

Dr Gish took the time during each appointment to listen to any concerns or questions I had. He never made me feel rushed at all, which was a great feeling as a patient.

Dr Gish explains what he’s thinking and is thorough with ruling out and diagnosing.

Excellent - Personable, professional, clearly communicated with me and gave appropriate detail. Best experience possible!

Dr. Gish listens, empathizes, does not rush the appointment, and gives immediate feedback.

Could’ve been much more thorough and you better clinical decision making with my visit last year.

Friendly. Good initial consult.

I won't let any other doctor work on my knee besides Dr. Gish. He is talented, intelligent, patient, understanding, kind, etc etc etc!

Thankyou for helping me with my shoulder pain I feel great now 😊

Dr Gish is a very kind and compassionate Dr. I am blessed to have gotten him as my surgeon.

In and out, professional.

Great job

I just think he is a great doctor. He listens to you. He is very pleasent

Dr Gish always listens and I believe has genuine compassion and concern for his patients.

Professional and straightforward experience. I felt respected and cared for by Dr. Gish. I trust him with my knee care and acl treatment and hope many others are able to find him too! He is the very best, no need to look farther.

Excellent Doctor. Used him for years. Repair torn ligaments in right shoulder.

Stilled the concern I had with post-op. knee replacements (8 yrs. ago) discomforts which had to be cleared before a forthcoming procedure.

Explained the situation well.

Great

Excellent doctor.

I appreciate the confidence that I felt with Dr Gish doing my knee surgery.

Fantastic, gifted, and personable surgeon. Cares deeply about the patients wellness.

Very well pleased with appointment.

Hey was thorough, kind and very calm. The staff at OAL were all efficient and caring!

I am so thankful that Dr. Gish has been supporting my knees and I for the past two years. He is always incredibly passionate, very deliberate and honest about his assessments and plan of care. I would highly recommend Dr. Gish!

Very knowledgeable and kind. Very prompt and takes the time to answer questions and explain things.

Dr. Gish was friendly, compassionate and very knowledgeable about my knee pain and ongoing issue. I’m very grateful for his help in getting me back to walking normally and hopefully pain free!

Kind, professional, and excellent orthopedic surgeon

Dr. Gish evaluated my left shoulder. He asked very good questions, prescribed an MRI and Physical Therapy. Dr. Gish was very patient and courteous to my wife and myself.

Dr Gish is amazing. I can’t say enough good things about him. From the second we met him at consult through my daughter”s surgery and post op appointments he has showed he is an amazing surgeon and truly cares about his patients. I am so glad he is the one that we were lucky enough to get. I definately wouldn’t see any other orthopedic surgeon after seeing Dr Gish (praying we don’t need anymore orthopedic surgeries but if we do I know who I would be seeing)

Always makes me feel comfortable. I am now having my knee surgery with him.

Very personable. Great at explaining procedures and steps to be taken. I was very pleased with the Knee surgery Dr Gish for me.

Answered all my questions and concerns any evaluation with 2 different Injuries. Also the Urgent care PA-C Christopher and Caralyn Very helpful.

Cares about his patients!

Dr. Gish is a true professional. I have recommended him to all my friends.

He's a very good doctor that I feel safe with.

I was very impressed with Dr.Gish. He has been nothing but kind and informative.

Cut right to the chase. I appreciate that.

Great Doctor

Dr Gish has excellent communication with patients/families. He’s very specific and clear with his treatment.

Dr Gish gave a different opinion from a another local physician that had recommended surgery. I like that Dr Gish reviewed the MRI before he entered the exam room. He asked more questions and moved the joint around more which I'm convinced gave a better overall analysis of whether surgery would improve things. While he didn't give me the diagnosis that I hoped for, I'm convinced that he gave a better opinion of how to move forward.

The Best of the Best!

Very nice and thorough Surgeon, who did an excellent job on my 83 year old mother's hop replacement. Minimal scar that healed quickly. No complications, my mom is already back to her old self. Everyone involved was wonderful. Shout out to Christine and Troy. My mom's PT, and OT who came to the house to help her regain her strength and help teach me how to wash my mother safely. They were both amazing. Nurse Jennifer was amazing as well. She was so positive and friendly, and helpful with local information. Great Staff, and the best professionals in their fields. A++++'s for all!
