Dr Gillenwater is one of the best providers I have ever seen. She had reviewed my records and was able to provide an option for treatment. She was very reassuring and understanding of the difficulties of shortness of breath I have been experiencing for quite some time.

I felt that Dr. Gillenwater was excellent. She listened carefully, included me in the plan, and treated me like a whole person rather than not just a set of symptoms. She considered my history, my preferences, and my concerns. I felt respected, understood, and involved. That kind of care is rare, and it meant a lot to me.

I had a wonderful experience. All of the staff was very caring helpful knowing experienced and truly concerned about the patient asking perfect questions analyzing my situation. Especially the Second Gentleman. Samantha came in with a big genuine smile and was ready to get to the bottom of my issue with caring in her face and attitude. I've never seen a doctor like her ready and willing to help her patients was her only goal. Not just a question and answer ritual ad many do but she puts her heart into it. I was astounded by her recommendation was spot on. I left feeling so great and knew I was on my way healing. I'm so grateful and thankful to me a God sent.
