I had been seeing a Neurologist for about the past 10 years. He has now moved out of state. I received more attention to my Neurapathy problem at this appointment than I have in the past ten years. I could not be more satisfied with the way I was treated at this appointment.

Dr Gutierrez is not only my provider here but the best one I have ever seen regarding my neurological issues, polyneuropathy. He has done more for me than all the others before him, in just TWO visits. Not only is he the best for me with my issue, but went above and beyond to help me with other issues I can not find help with. PPolyneuropathy has many unpleasant symptoms and hoards of them... And he takes that into consideration like no one before him. I truly believe I will benefit from his expertise! Pity he is not a PCP, he'd be the best!

It would be logistically easier for me to switch my care elsewhere at the moment for botox (due to getting other services at another clinic) but I have felt so well cared for I am hesitant to do this! It's been great!

In all my dealings with good to great neurologists, this Doctor outshines them all! He asked me more questions than all the rest put together, was more thorough in questions and listening, and took the very best of my health seriously. He took plenty of time, was more thorough. Requested more labs than any other and referred me to other specialists regarding my issues at hand with him. He was simply the best!

The doctor said I could follow up through the portal and 15-minute video visits when needed, depending on my disease symptoms and response to medications. This made me happy because I won't be burdened by regular appointments at a distance, hard for me to get to, yet he was making himself very accessible for me to access his help. A perfect combination for me to get the support I need without feeling burdened by additional appointments at a distance. Also, he agreed that we should try me on a lower dose medicine (prescribed by another doctor), encouraged me to message him regarding my response to that, and suggested future treatments if the lower dose was problematic. I felt very heard and supported regarding my concerns with the higher dose of medicine I was on and I felt very reassured he would continue to be available to me to get me to the optimal treatment for my condition.

I have had chronic migraine for over 15 years and after my first visit with Dr. Gutierrez I felt hopeful for the first time in a long time. He listened to the challenges with my current treatment regimen and offered alternatives that my other providers had not. Previous providers did not take the time to listen to how the my current treatment only relieved my symptoms to a certain degree and seemed resigned to me having daily migraine and flare ups multiple times a month. They also dismissed the side effects I reported. It was disheartening. Dr. Gutierrez suggested other treatments, and while I have yet to determine If they will provide relief, I am grateful to be exhausting all my options. I was nervous to switch my insurances as it meant reestablishing with new providers but am so glad that I did.
