“Excellent care!”
I was very happy with the care I received from Dr. Gibson. He is very competent, knowledgeable, caring and had a great "bedside manner". While it turned out that I didn't need surgery after all, I appreciated the fact that he wasn't "knife happy". He answered every question I had. He saw me in the hospital and followed up on my care afterwards until I was completely better. He certainly made going to the doctor a pleasant experience.
I'd highly recommend him!
Thank you, Dr. Gibson!

“Rockstar of a Surgen”
Dr. Gibson's personality is perfect for a doctor. He keeps the atmosphere light helping the patient feel relaxed in a typically stressful medical environment. Dr. Gibson talks with his patients and not at them with fancy medical terms in an attempt to flaunt his knowledge. On top of it all, Dr. Gibson is a talented medical professional and caring person. He's simply one of the best in the area. period.

“Very attentive”
I have been a patient of Dr Gibsons for years. He's easy to talk to and ask questions. He's attentive to your needs and willing to help out when needed (like on call questions!)

Comment - “ Excellent care! ”
