Dr. G is an open and warm person, she was informative and wants you know know what’s going on, encourages questions and is willing to clarify.
Verified patient
Dr. Gouveia was very upbeat, straightforward, optimistic, joyful and helped me create action steps to better my overall health. I didn’t feel that she wanted to complete expensive unnecessary tests and I also felt that although I’m overcoming obesity, she believed we could address it, not have my life be defined by it. I can’t wait until I see her again for my next checkup!
