Dr Gantwerker is professional, a brilliant diagnostician and very personable.He has been the ONLY physician to diagnose, understand and treat pain I've had for 24 years.
I have been to numerous neurologists, neurosurgeons, orthopedic practices and neuropsychologists with absolutely no advice or assistance in treating my case. He is kind, patient, brilliant and will answer any questions you have in terms you will understand.
I cannot recommend any other doctor with his experience and great knowledge. Highly recommend him!

Dr Gantwerker is fantastic and his office staff, Annick and Helene, are absolute gems. So far each step has been quick, clear, easy and helpful. Annick and Helene are personable, friendly, fun and with wonderful humor!!
Dr G is very kind and very thorough. Prior to him, no other MD had done a thorough and comprehensive physical exam of me - which seemed odd. Dr G did. And he showed me my MRI and explained it in detail. I have been very scared about what's happening with me, and after meeting him, my fear is actually gone (may it stay gone) and I feel taken care of.
Don't hesitate to see Dr Gantwerker, he's excellent.

He's a great doctor who spends as much time as you would need to discuss your issues. He's caring, intelligent and makes you feel like you're in good hands. His front office is equally as good (Annick) as they are friendly and caring, too.

Dr. Gantwerker and his team are a pleasure to visit. They are warm and caring people, explain everything clearly, and don’t rush you right out the door. So happy that I found a Doctor that still cares about the well being of his patients.

Annik in the front office is not only efficient, but is kind and so accommodating to the patients.
Dr. Brian Gantwerker, is a thorough and highly conscientious doctor. Was there for a consult and he came in prepared and was careful not to tell me definitively what would be done until he had more test done.

Dr. Gantwerker is an extremely knowledgeable and skilled physician, and is truly dedicated to his patients. Unlike most physicians today, he took the time to thoroughly review my health history and test results,, ask me in-depth questions, and to analyze my back injuries in order to effectively guide me on the best course of action. He is a real gem, combining tremendous skill with empathy. I highly recommend him.
