Patient Reviews
May 16, 2023
I've been going to Dr. Gecht for 42 years. In that time, I believe that he has twice saved my life: once from blood poisoning, and once from hypertension. He has also updated my various medicines to cutting edge, as they develop. His advice is always solidly grounded in the latest research. If it were possible, I would give him six stars.
