I think this visit with Dr. Gurrola was perhaps the best doctor's visit I've ever had. He spent a good deal of time with me and I did not feel rushed (as I have with past doctors), he listened to me, showed empathy, and walked me through my CT scan and explained things to me in a way I understood without any condescension. Despite having no answer/magic bullet for my sinus condition, I left feeling well educated, and with a doctor who I could come back to and trust in the future. I also appreciated he had a bit of a sense of humor.

Dr Gurrola was very knowledgeable about my case, compassionate re: the lack of effectiveness my recent treatment and spent time to discuss options for moving ahead. He communicated with Dr Loftus while I was there and we developed a plan together. I felt included and listened to. Thanks Dr Gurrola
