Dr. Gerth has been the best doctor for my father who has Alzheimers. He is patient, compassionate and competent in the care he has provided for my father. I think he is the best doctor on the island!!
They have good hours. I got a Sunday appointment on short notice. But appointments always take a very long time. I would plan on 2 hours and not be surprised if it took 3.
