        My experience with Dr. Gum was exceptional. Dr. Gum was very professional, efficient, and personable. He took time to explain everything that is going on with me and he took even more time listening to what I had to say. I appreciate his expertise and ability to change course of action due to what I had to say.

        It has been 10 mos since I had a checkup with Dr Gum and it's amazing how different all the staff members are. They have such a positive attitude. When I was there before they were rude and very uncaring. I Am so pleased that the present staff are so professional and concerned with the patients health.

        Dr Gum went above and beyond to help locate and find my spinal pain. He didn't get upset if I disagreed with curtain items he just simply talked me through the issues. Which is in heard of in medicine anymore. Dr Gum is absolutely one of a kind Physician.

        I was so pleased with the communication from Dr. Gum. Before surgery, consultation was quick and hurried and I did not feel as though I was told the severity of the surgery and possible recovery time. This visit was excellent. Dr Gum took time to answer all my questions and provided information regarding PT and how it would help restore my ROM.
