Been a patient of Dr. Michael GUERENA for a least a decade. Have undergone several operations and procedures with the good doctor that have kept me functional and living a fairly normal life!

Dr. Guerena was professional, knowledgeable, and decisive ordering multiple tests to solidify his experienced opinion. He stays up to date with the latest changes in medical therapy. He clearly offered treatments options and their likely outcomes. He was excellent in surgery and well respected by hospital staff and other medical personnel. He provided complete pre and post-op surgery outlines and provided caring and listening answers to patient concerns. His follow-up was excellent along with his caring office staff. I highly recommend Dr. Guerena, I’m blessed he is my doctor, and would recommend a family member to him should they need similar medical care. Putting it simply he takes great pride in his work, is well educated, experienced, skilled and caring. Thank you Dr. G.

I have just had my second surgery with Dr. Guerena--I am so happy that he has been my Dr. The office staff and his two assistants, Melody and Sharon, are so loving and caring. I couldn't have had any better treatment. He came highly recommended to me and they were right. I value my time with these people.
