Dr. Gavlick was perhaps one of the most amazing physicians I have met in my 75 years. His medical knowledge and expertise were only exceeded by his accomplishments in history, music and the global arts. He is a true Renaissance Man.

Dr. Gavlick is a pleasant person, and I believe he means well. He is extremely verbal, and very enthusiastic about many subjects. His cardiology education is very obvious, but he begins talking rapidly at the start of the visit, and digresses and approaches one topic to the next, talking far more than listening. He is capable of focusing on the medical subject at hand, but really only after much digression from related topic to unrelated topic, back to related topic, and so on. I feel bad to be saying this, because he obviously is a good and nice person.

My previous heart history, recent echo, my symptoms, and exam results were presented and explained and my questions were answered. When I leave the office, I feel I understand my problem better and that my care is in good hands.

Dr. Gavlick is Awesome. I would describe be Dr. Gavlick as a bright light, super friendly, super good energy, informative, and the best way to describe him Is "Real". I love the east coast energy and the only real complaint I have is that he did inform me that there is no real good New York Pizza available in the city of Cottonwood, this is very disappointing. I'd like Dr. Gavlick to be my Primary but I know that's not possible (that's a compliment to Dr. Gavlick, not a ding on my Primary who is cool)
