Patient Reviews
Feb 07, 2022
Dr. Gathe has been my physician since 1996, which is almost all of my adult life. He has the best bedside manner of any physician I’ve ever seen, including every specialist I’ve had over the last 20 years. He is an expert in infectious diseases, and he has also been featured in the news many times throughout the COVID pandemic. I feel that Dr, Gathe is an extension of my family, and his compassionate care and guidance has been the cornerstone of living a happy and healthy life. If you are looking for a doctor board-certified in internal medicine, infectious diseases, or oncology, then Dr. Gathe is the one to see.
