Dr Gelb is an excellent doctor & very competent. Explains medical procedures well. All the staff are friendly and very knowledgeable about procedures or different types of injections. I’ve been a patient for 18 months receiving well managed care
Very through with explaining surgery options and the reason why he chooses the specific path for each individual. His staff is empathetic and so helpful with referrals and appointments.
Prompt, professional, pleasant medical office…an overall pleasure to deal with throughout my surgery, PT, and follow ups. Not for nothin’, Dr. Gelb kept his side of the bargain. Successful, yet challenging rotator cuff repair; back to full use and life as hoped.
