Awesome doctor I would recommend him anytime to anyone!
When I visited Michael today, he was on time and when he came in, he was focused, professional, and we got to the core issues and we set up a follow-up appointment and everything was done in a very professional, competent manner and I really appreciate his work.
ordered a psa test. ordered a mri. changed the prescription which made an immediate positive result.
the dr. was good
Michael is a smart, mundane, nice guy. I really like him and he helped me tremendously. He deserves a pay raise.
It was my first visit and I'm satisfied with the attention I was treated.
The reception. The nurse who greeted me is excellent. I received top quality service from Dr. Michael.
Dr Gerlach was very knowledgeable and explained things perfectly.. we came up with a good plan and his office scheduled follow up testing very quickly!
I waited about 10 minutes past my appt. time, but Dr Gerlach more than made up for it. Liked him so much! Very informative and great personality !
Michael Gerlach immediately welcomes you and puts you at ease. He was very professional, listened to and addressed my concerns, answered my questions in a way that I understood, and informed me that I could email or call with any other concerns related to my medicalsituation. These things are important to me as a patient!
Very organized and friendly
My Doctor was very willing to listen to my concerns and questions and then did well offering answers I could easily understand.
Listened to my question. Had answers to them. Explained to me the pros and cons of my scenarios. Seemed genuinely interested in what I'm trying to accomplish. Thank you.
