Dr. Gutierrez is an amazing doctor. He really takes time to listen to my concerns/symptoms and gave constructive feedback regarding my specific, and very complex, circumstances. He also included me in conversations regarding next possible steps for me outside of neurosurgery. He is also very honest and transparent, which is something that is highly lacking in doctors nowadays. I highly value this transparency so that I am not continuously "strung along" like so many other doctors tend to do.
