Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Excellent heart doctor.

Excellent Cardiologist
High Blood Pressure with other ailments. Very nice bedside manner and explains everything in detail. He even called me a few times to check on me after we sent him my blood pressure readings. The staff is very nice and caring. This means a lot to people who are hurting and need someone who cares.

I highly endorse and recommend Dr. Gessler. He has been my cardioligist since my heart attack in 2014. He takes the time to listen. He has a true passion for the patients he cares for.

I have been seeing Dr. Gessler for 20 years as I had a heart attack a week after giving birth to my daughter. He is very thorough, and never rushes me. He is also very caring and personable. He always asks how my daughter is doing because in a way, he has known about her for her entire life. He is absolutely the best!
