Patient Reviews
Aug 28, 2020
Dr. Gaitan is a thorough, kind and insightful Neurologist. I was especially pleased with the time he took to explain the diagnosis he gave my mother of 87. It been difficult to find physicians in the RGV that I could respect and trust... I am pleased that Dr. Gaitan is one of them. I would definitely recommend any patient to seek his care.
