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.

Very knowledgeable, insightful and welcoming
Visit was pretty smooth, I was in and out of the centre within 20 mins. Dr Eric was very insightful and knowledgeable, he immediately diagnosed the condition and prescribed a good medicine for that. So far I’ve been recovering well. Dr Eric is very welcoming and friendly, and explained my condition in detail using human anatomy model, and happily answered my questions. For someone visiting for the first time, he helped me navigate the process without any issues. Definitely top-notch doctor, 5 out of 5 stars!

I was impressed by the confidence with which he spoke to me on the first day of my consultation. I came with a diagnosis made in Italy with which he agreed. To my surprise, the way he presented the treatment and subsequent operation was very different from what I had been told in Europe. I immediately decided to have the operation with him and his wonderful team. I thank God for having found Dr. Eric Giesler and his team. The operation took an hour and a half and in the afternoon I was already home, without complications and in an excellent mood, practically pain-free and just as he had told me. I highly recommend this Doctor… May God bless his hands always.

Outstanding Surgeon
I was impressed during my first visit, I found Dr. Giesler to be professional, personable, and knowledgeable. During the next few appointments, it was established I had prostate cancer. While this is something no one wants to hear, Dr Giesler was thoughtful, compassionate and took all the time needed to explain treatment options. After doing much research on Prostate Cancer, treatments, and other providers, it became apparent that having the right surgeon was one of the most important decisions to be made. After researching more it became apparent that Dr Giesler was highly skilled and had a stellar reputation. I chose Dr. Giesler for my prostate surgery. I knew he was the right doctor for me, this was even more apparent when he met and updated my family before and after surgery. I am eight weeks out of surgery and could not be happier with my Surgeon Dr. Eric Giesler!

I dealt with a horrible urinary infection for over 2 months and saw several urologists and physician's assistants all of whom did not help me. Thank God for Dr. GIESLER! He diagnosed the problem correctly and prescribed the proper medication. He is my permanent new urologist.

Superb Physician
I have been seeing Dr. Eric Giesler for over six to seven years and he has always been open and direct with me with any tests, treatments and surgeries that in his medical determination was best for me and my personal health. He’s always open with me and will always have his patients best interest in place. A doctor you can trust and have 100% confidence in.
