Personal Testimonials
“My wife and I are participating in Dr. Gutschenritter’s Personal
Healthcare practice and we are extremely happy with this program. We
have instant communication with a top physician, his entire staff is
very professional and we have the peace of mind in knowing immediate
health care help is only a telephone call away. Our office visits
have been on the same day as our request, which nips problems in the
bud and the annual wellness exam is extremely comprehensive. We feel
most fortunate to have access to this program.”
“Dr.
Gutschenritter and his staff were very courteous and professional
during my visit. I am very happy with the new program as it is
geared toward one on one attention and the time is taken to adhere
to my medical needs and questions. I would highly recommend this
program.”
“Dr. G. (Peter) belongs to a rare breed of physicians, these
days, who is always on Time, Listens to you, takes his time to
Answer your questions, and is Very Pleasant to deal with. I suggest
the AMA appoints him to teach physicians these qualities.”
“I love it, love it. Quick response, even on a Sunday afternoon.
Appointments made promptly. Doctor is able to spend plenty of time
with me. I don’t feel rushed at an exam. More like the personal
medical care of years ago before the hassle of managed care. The
doctor is a true partner now in my medical care – I love it!”
“Dr. Gutschenritter is 100% in every field we’ve needed to
discuss. He is very patient and listens with full attention. I might
feel very ill when I get there (to his office), but most of the time
I already feel better once I have arrived, because of his caring
ways and his discussion of any problems I am experiencing. I feel
fortunate to have him as my doctor. I like the set-up of the new
practice. I have been a patient of his for many years and am
delighted to be a part of this new practice.”
“Dr. Gutschenritter’s new practice format provides a level of
responsiveness that provides comfort and the security that my health
care will be closely attended to. His intelligence, personal warmth,
thoroughness and insistence on keeping up with the latest
information in medical science and care, as well as pharmacology,
ensures outstanding medical care.”
“It is my pleasure to be a patient of Dr. Gutschenritter’s as he
embarks on “Concierge Healthcare”. Having read a recent news article
about concierge healthcare’s pros and (supposed) cons, I have only
great appreciation for a physician who wants to practice medicine as
it was intended….before the quagmire of health industries’ rules and
regulations superceded patient care.”
“Dr. Gutschenritter is
a very caring physician. His practice is centered around his
patients and their needs. He is competent and professional. When you
visit his office you are not being driven like a herd of cattle, as
with some primary care physicians and their staff.”
“The
physical exam was the most thorough one I have ever had and the
medical report the most comprehensive. I feel well cared for in your
practice. Thank you, Doctor!”
“I’ve always had complete
confidence in Dr. Gutschenritter’s medical care, but due to his
overload of patients prior to October, it was not always possible to
receive prompt attention by telephone or office appointments. It has
been very comforting since October to know Dr. G. or Mary can be
reached to take care of your needs immediately or within a short
period of time. Dr. G. can also be reached by cell phone after
office hours and no longer are your emergency nighttime calls
answered by an “on call” doctor, who does not know your medical
history.”
“I am very pleased with the thoroughness of the
care I am receiving. The USB-flash drive copy of my medical history
is a security and I carry it with me on my travels.”
“Best
and most thorough and sensitive physical exam I’ve ever had. After
receiving my comprehensive summary, I felt a complete peace of mind.
It is also satisfying to know I have as much medical history and
information on me [USB flash drive], as my doctor does. That has not
always been the case in years past”
“Dr. Gutschenritter has a
warm sense of humor. He is down to earth and will listen to your
concerns”
“Absolutely the newest and best personal care
medicine available today. Within the first several months, I
have used the convenience of having easy access to the doctor to
answer questions.”
“I wondered whether I’d get full value
when we switched to Dr. G’s new practice (Concierge Medicine). As
fate would have it, several material health questions have arisen in
our first 4 months, and being able to readily talk with Dr. G. has
been priceless for peace of mind and improved health care.”
“Peter’s calm and humor makes a visit to his office more like
talking with a friend who happens to practice medicine. Peter is
thorough in his examinations and finds the root cause of problems,
but is not one to over- prescribe, or to refer patients to other
doctors unless the need truly exists. His diagnoses and remedies to
patient conditions, many times, are common-sense behavior or
lifestyle adjustments. My health is a top priority and there is no
one I trust more with my health than Peter.”
“Dr. G’s new
practice is very good. He is always available. His secretary is very
competent and all questions are answered promptly.”
