Patients appreciate
The overwhelming majority of reviews describe Dr. Nathan Gilbert as knowledgeable, professional, and an excellent communicator. Patients repeatedly praise his ability to explain diagnoses, treatment options, and surgical procedures in clear, understandable terms, and many note that he takes time to listen and answer questions thoroughly without making them feel rushed. Numerous long-term patients—some who have seen him for over a decade—highlight his surgical skill, particularly with complex orthopedic cases like hip revisions, cancer-related bone surgeries, and limb-saving procedures, with several patients crediting him with preventing amputation or restoring their mobility. His bedside manner is frequently described as kind, calm, warm, and personable, and many reviews also commend his supporting staff and office team as friendly, efficient, and professional.
Patients also share
The most common complaint is long wait times, with multiple reviewers mentioning waiting an hour or more in the exam room before being seen, even though the actual visit with Dr. Gilbert was positive. A handful of reviews mention that he can seem rushed or hurried during appointments, and a couple of patients felt visits were too brief to fully address all of their concerns (for example, one reviewer wanted more detail about a new diagnosis, and another felt a question about swelling wasn't addressed and was deferred to their primary doctor). A small number of reviews described him as "a bit arrogant" or, in one notably negative review, dismissive and insulting during a visit where the patient felt their concerns weren't taken seriously. These negative experiences appear to be outliers compared to the broader pattern of feedback.
