I have been a patient of Dr. Gerson for very many years. I like Dr. Gerson. He is a very good doctor. He knows me and my issues well, and we work together, trying various solutions to make my gastronomic life better.
His PA, Caroline Phelps, is very nice. She is very good at explaining test results and making sense of all the lingo that I don't understand. She is really easy to talk to!

Reviews
I was there on a very busy day. The parking lot was completely full and I had to hunt for a handicap space. There was only one left quite a distance from the entry. Reason for 4 stars instead of 5.
Yet, ran like a well oiled machine. Brisk, professional, on time, no surprises. High standard care.
I am extremely happy having a portal to send messages and get answers back promptly. It avoids calling in waiting for a call back from the nurse after she has to talk with my doctor.
