Dr. Gaton is an amazing Dr. I was so sick and I went to see him. I had E-Coli. I felt horrible. He took awesome care of me. He even called me at home almost every day to ck on me. If he didn't one of his other Dr's did. I love them.

I would never recommend him to anyone. He gave me several prescriptions that were not needed. If you want to take several hours out of your day to go see a Doctor Who is no smarter then your dog, this is the doctor for you.

I had to see him because my doctor was out on vacation. I was having many unusual but serious symptoms at the time. I told him about everything that was going on with me and he insisted that it was all due to stress. He spent 10 minutes telling me ways I could learn to manage stress. I insisted it was not just stress and he proceeded to tell me that because I was still young nothing could possibly be wrong with me. Luckily, my instincts told me he had no clue what he was talking about. I went to see another doctor and it turned out to be cancer. If I would have listen to him I may not be alive right now. I would not recommend seeing him for anything that requires medical intelligence. I think he would be Ok to see for the common cold or flu. He actually seemed like a nice man but if you have a serious health issue I suggest you see another doctor. Your life may depend on it!

Dr. Gaton is a great guy and an even better physician. He has been courteous and compassionate. I also admire the work that he does to help the uninsured in his community. I would likely recommend Dr. Fred Gaton.
