I have been a patient of Dr. Gardner for past 4-5 years. I was lucky enough to get in his practice when Dr. Kerley retired. He is brilliant in his diagnosis, through in his research, and doesn't miss a trick when it comes to a check up. Years ago he diagnosed my son's medical condition when four other doctors. could not. And he is super dedicated to his patients. What more could you want in a physician? He is all business when he needs to be but he also has a humorous side if you pick on him enough. I don't think there is a better doctor in all of Mt. Airy. As I said, I am lucky to claim him as my personal physician! Mark Keck

If you are looking for a doctor to treat your symptoms or latest cold then go. If you have a child who is having persistent problems please don't. They treat symptoms and you will get juggled from doctor to doctor in the practice.

Dr. Gardner is the best. He has been my Dr. for around 20 years or more. Every since he came to Mt. Airy, NC. I trust him more than any other Dr. I have seen. I can't see him now because I have no Ins., and my husband is on retirement. Thank you, Dr. Gardner for such a fine job.

I have been a patient of Dr. Gardner's for 15 years. The thing I like the best is he will spend time talking to me to find out what my problems are BEFORE he even starts the exam. I feel like he is one of very few doctors that actually LISTEN to his patients.
