from Amy in NV February 28, 2018 for Michael J. Gunter, MD

When I was a little girl in the 1950s, I had a doctor who spent time making sure I felt cared for, safe and loved. I haven't felt that way again until I met Dr. Gunter. It's impossible to fully express how important it is to our health to have a professional who pays attention and doesn't look at us as a number, but as a human being--one in a vulnerable state, usually. Dr.… See more

Dr. Gunter's recommendations regarding diet and exercise helped me to lose 36 pounds and greatly reduce my A1C level. He is a friend who gives you straight talk and is sincerely interested in your overall health. I would recommend him to anyone!

from Lynn in NV February 28, 2018 for Michael J. Gunter, MD

On New Year's Eve a few years ago, my husband had experienced terrible abdominal pain for hours as we drove home from California. When we got home, he called Dr. Gunter's office. He was supposed to be off that night and had asked another VIP to cover for him. However, he knew that we were not pleased with the other doctor and that his condition could be serious. He handled it himself… See more

Dr. Gunter has been my physician for 20 years. He has treated me for numerous injuries while playing senior softball for 14 years. He also discovered diabetes early enough that I was able to treat with diet and exercise and am now diabetes free. He has enabled me to reach 82 in good health and physically active. He is without a doubt the best doctor I have ever had. I hope he is able to… See more

from Betty in NV February 26, 2018 for Michael J. Gunter, MD

Our friend first and then our doctor, Dr. Gunter is a very caring compassionate soul. He detected a very small sign of heart trouble and referred me to an appropriate doctor and I subsequently had heart surgery. I believed he was instrumental in giving me years with my grandchildren that I might not have had.

from lynn March 28, 2017 for Michael J. Gunter, MD

On New Year's Eve a few years ago, my husband was in excruciating pain after driving from California home to Las Vegas. We called Dr. Gunter, who was off for the first time in years and at a block party. He knew that we did not like the doctor on call and took immediate charge, scheduling my husband for surgery. He always goes out of his way for his patients. He is a jewel in the desert… See more
