Long before MDVIP, Dr. Gassner was my Doctor. He has helped me through allergies, hernia, high cholesterol and numerous athletic injuries.
He has been available day and night to care for my issues. No problems is too small him. My work required me to travel often. Several times I call Dr. Gassner seeking medical advice and medication. He was able to find a pharmacy near me that could… See more

Testimonials from patients of Dr. Gassner

Not too long ago I thought I had a flareup of an old problem . I was very concerned so ,of course, I called Dr. Gassner and was very disappointed to hear he was out of town at a conference. However Kim told me he would get his messages...and sure enough within the hour Dr. Gassner called, we discussed the situation and he called in a prescription for me. I couldn't believe it. Also I… See more
Dr Lawrence Gassner has been my PCP since fall of 2013 when we moved to Arizona. I left behind an ideal situation where my healthcare was provided within the same healthcare organization in which I worked. Since I retired and moved to another state, I didn’t think I could find anyone or any better provider system, but I did. I feel so blessed to have found him and he accepted me as his patient… See more
During my annual physical Dr. Gassner spent so much time with me that I felt sorry for the other patients waiting to be seen by him. He made me feel as if I was the only patient he was seeing that day. Later I found out that he schedules his appointments with plenty of time to give every patient all the time they need to answer all their questions. I guess I was not so special after all :-).… See more
Dr. Gassner is so knowledgable and really listens to you. His patience when asking questions is bar none the best bed-side manner I have ever encountered. He is always prompt and courteous and we are very happy with our choice of doctor and MDVIP.
He gives me the time I need, the expert guidance and follow up as needed.I am 92 years old, so I have seen many doctors during my lifetime and Dr. Gassner has been the best for me. And his staff!
I have been a patient of Dr Gassner for several years. He is not only an excellent clinician but an understanding one. He has helped me in countless ways over years.
Thanks for taking me on. Just two visits so far, and it's made a big difference already!
Great with people of all ages.

Dr. Gassner helped me change my life. He motivated me to lose weight, which intern helped me improve my health. Hes always very thoughtful and insightful in his advise.
What will your life be like when you turn 100? A century ago the question seemed almost flippant, a needless consideration for most people, but today it's very real. The percentage of people living to 100 has grown almost 66 percent in the last 30 years, according to U.S. News and World Report… See more
