Patient Reviews
Jun 12, 2024
My experience with dr Gillespie from scheduling an appointment to having surgery was five stars. His office team including Gina Amanda and Matt are so compassionate with their patients in the hospital and the office. Every time I called with questions I was impressed with the speed of return calls as well as their explanations in an understandable language. Dr Gillespie explained the procedure thoroughly and I was very impressed with the time he spent with both me and never felt like he needed to get to his next patient I had surgery on Thursday and was discharged on Friday afternoon after a complete follow up by dr Gillespie and Matt Busch an amazing experience. My thanks to the whole team
