Wouldn't recommend him. He doesn't let you talk at all. He rushes you out of the room. He does all the talking. He does not listen to you. I wouldn't go to him ever again. Very rude

He is rude,unprofessional and contradicting. He does not listen to a thing you say, it seems like he doesn't want to listen; he wants you to keep quiet and agree to what he says. Would not recommended him to anyone!

My wife and I, the patient have been extremely impressed with Dr Gaitan's overall handling of my condition. I have seen him twice and on the first visit he correctly diagnosed and started treating my condition to where as on the second trip to his office, I had already experienced a huge improvement. The Dr is very courteous, takes his time explaining the problem in detail, is very intelligent & accurate in his diagnosis, and also has a very professional and courteous staff, not to mention the office environment. I am glad I was referred to him. Thank you Dr. Gaitan & staff

We were very impressed with Dr.Gaitan. After listening to us, and a series of questions, he knew exactly what was wrong with my husband. I am so grateful to him and his staff for taking us before our appointment, as my husband was in severe pain. I just cannot say enough about him. I love that he brought out books and showed us the root of the problem. I was so impressed with his knowledge, I was telling everyone about him.
