Dr. Gavin is an exceptional MD. He is respectful, he listens, he's honest, and informative.My PSA level has risen over the past few years, and I recently had an MRI which showed 2 "regions of interest," and I am now scheduled for a prostate biopsy early next month. Of course, Dr. Gavin and I discussed this situation extensively at my most recent visit, and I felt so much better after that conversation. I had already done a lot of research on my own, and was not unduly worried about my situation going in, but Dr. Gavin's counsel was extremely reassuring. He is just an all around great doc!

I wish there was more focus on healthy lifestyle activities we can do without the use of medication. Also, there is clearly a push to get me to take more boosters of the covid vaccine. I wouldn't have an issue with this if it weren't for the fact that it's the only thing that seems pushed. There are many many other factors I think affect someone's overall health yet there is not much of a focus on that, just go get the shot. I didn't feel there was a discussion on the risks and possible benefits of getting the covid vaccine for me personally.

Dr. Gavin is extraordinary in every way. I never knew it was possible to have a GP who is so knowledgeable, kind, understanding and truly LISTENS to me. He wants his patients to feel their best, and always treats me and answers my questions with zero judgment. He is the biggest blessing, and I am so fortunate to have him as my provider. He has made every health issue I experience manageable. His office treats you like a person, not a number. I can honestly say it's the first time I've not dreaded a doctors appointment, and because of that, I am more proactive with my health concerns and needs. He never dismisses me, and instead has taught me to listen to my gut and raise any concerns or issues I have. I can't say enough about him, and only wish everyone had the ability to see him because he is one of a kind!
