Several years ago, I was experiencing pain at my stomach. After a few tests/scans, Dr. Gertner determined that I had a tumor at my ileocecal valve, and recommended an ileocecectomy. Surgery was scheduled, and the recovery was fast. I have not experienced any issues since. I found Dr. Gertner to be frank, honest and compassionate. I would recommend him to anyone.

The entire staff is super helpful... I was referred to Dr. Gertner by my general doc to follow up on some breast issues. To say he's been phenomenal would be an understatement... He doesn't ignore anything! Which was VERY important for me based on medical history. He explores every option, doesn't leave any stone unturned and tries his best to get to the bottom of the issue. He calls personally to follow up after procedures and to give test results... I can't stress enough how awesome he is. My journey with him continues... I trust him totally after seeing 4 other breast specialists who I felt like did not listen to my concern based on my age, he did.... and he found abnormalities that I'm sure would have been ignored, ad they had been if he wasn't the awesome doctor he is...

Dr. Gertner has always taken a vested interest in my general well-being and health, not just for the procedure that was being done at any given time. His caring and personal professional manner has always made me feel at ease. It is truly appreciated.

My experience with Dr. Gertner was nothing short of excellent. Thanks to Dr. Gertner's successful surgery I was able to recover much sooner than what I expected and get back to my daily life's activities. His respectful, caring, and professional demeanor surpasses most of his peers and I would recommend Dr. Gertner as one of the best surgeons in the area.
