Scott Gering is an excellent colorectal surgeon. He removed 5 feet of my colon due to cancer and did a great job. He's low on conversation but great on surgery skills

I was referred to Dr Gering from Eisenhower ER. The ER Dr was so concerned he wrote STAT on all the orders. Dr Gering and his staff had me in the ofc w/in a few days. I had a procedure to see what was going on. W/in the following week I was having surgery. A 2hr surgery turned into 41/2hrs. He said I was a lucky lady...I do beleive he saved my life. I had been seeking a Dr that knew how to help me. Thank you Dr Gering for such quality work. Your advanced education is an asset to this entire valley. ..and especially to me.

Dr. Gering operated on me for a ruptured appendix. While I would have liked to miss the entire episode, every aspect of his medical expertise was superb. He told me what to expect without making promises, he seemed knowledgeable every step of the way, his bedside manner is better than soothing, it is confidence-building. Highly recommend.
