Testimonials from patients of Dr. Gassner

from Stan in AZ January 25, 2024 for Lawrence P. Gassner, MD

I remembered the time my wife was sick on a Sunday and I called Dr Gassner on his cell phone and he was climbing on Pinnacle Peak. He took care of my problem and called into Walgreens a prescription. He also called the nurse at Mayo Clinic when my wife was in the hospital. These were times I remembered Doctor Gassner dedication to my wife and me.

When Dr. Larry Gasner finished my prostate exam, I told him that I would never shake his hand again and to that he replied "quit your whining or next time I'll put my super bowl ring on". I appreciate that I have a doctor that I can joke with.

from Hilal in AZ January 18, 2024 for Lawrence P. Gassner, MD

I had a persintent cough over the weekend. I called Dr Gassner and withing few minutes he returned my call. Even though he was in the middle of no where driving back from California, he returned my call and assured me that once he is home he will call my pharmacy with a cough medication.
Two hours later he called me again to let me know that the order is complete and that I can go get my… See more

from Stuart in AZ January 18, 2024 for Lawrence P. Gassner, MD

As I was getting older I was looking to change my doctor and was looking for a doctor that would be available on a more personal basis. This led me to the MDVIP model.

As a serious cyclist I was also looking for a doctor that would understand the nature of cycling and the physical issues that can occur along "the cycle of life". I noticed that Dr. Lawrence Gassner was also a… See more

When Larry, ( I call him, Larry, Doctor to the Stars), first told us he was planning to go to a Concierge model, we told him we wanted to be the first patients to sign up. I don't know if we were first, but we certainly were among the first. The fact he chose to do this, was a reflection of his desire to serve his patients better. To allow him to devote the time necessary to achieve that… See more

from John in AZ March 26, 2020 for Lawrence P. Gassner, MD

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

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

from Karen in AZ March 16, 2020 for Lawrence P. Gassner, MD

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

from Hilal in AZ March 10, 2020 for Lawrence P. Gassner, MD

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

from Michael in AZ March 1, 2020 for Lawrence P. Gassner, MD

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.
