Patient Reviews
Jan 16, 2021
Iam a long time patient of Dr.Gettinger, he is the best clinician ever. I wish we had more physicians like him. He has skills every MD suppose to and should have. He is knowledgeable. Make great diagnosis and referrals. Listens intently but not always letting you have your way, which is good. It shows he cares to me. I truly appreciate Dr.Gettinger and hope he never retire or leave his practice.
