Dr Gilat provided a great 2nd opinion and hope for both of my knee recovery and quality of lifestyle avoiding surgery. I was diagnosed with chronic oesteoarthitis in both knees due to a car accident in 2019. Other doctors just want to "practice" and operate on the human body without exploring the fitness or lifestyle history with their patients. It was an Empowering doctor's visit after 6 long years of agony! I would recommend him to any professional athlete for honesty.
Dr Gilat was very friendly and thorough, and explained the treatment process clearly. Im looking forward to working with him.

Went for an issue with my left knee. Great bedside manner. Super friendly staff. I felt listened to, immediately got x-rays right there and I'm happy with the proposed treatment plan. Highly recommend this doc.
Verified patient
Amazing experience overall definitely wasn’t expecting the overtop customer service. You can tell everyone wants to be there which is amazing
Verified patient
Easy check in, clean office, friendly staff. Wait time wasn't too bad. One thing I wish they did was make the temperature in the office more comfortable, it was very warm.
Verified patient
Dr Gilat and his staff were quick to give me an x-ray and assess my situation. All my questions and needs were taken into consideration. The doctor took his time to explain one symptom and next steps.
Efficient office, good doc, good experience.
I had a shoulder injury. I was able to get a x ray on the spot and get my results immediately. I had a little longer wait then I wanted but once I was called everything moved so fast. After the x ray I was seen immediately by the doctor. 5 stars would definitely recommend
