Patient Reviews
Jul 06, 2024
I am confused by his low rating. Easy to get the appointment. Started visit right on time. Dr. Gelb is extremely knowledgeable. Spent quality time with me answering all my questions with regard to a knee replacement that I knew I needed. Has also treated my daughter who loves him as well. He suggested a new medication to help with the pain and also is ordering a brace which I also knew I needed since my bones are very unsteady. He said it should help with my mobility until I have surgery. I have scheduled my knee replacement with him and I am very confident he will be with me from beginning to the end.
