Lovely, clean office. Know why? You're paying for it! And I mean PAYING for it. \r

I've gone to Dr. Gunn for years and I've always felt really safe in his hands. My family has a long and troubling history with cancers. On the one hand, I like that he's preemptive in administering tests vs. being reactive to cancer actually poppong up, BUT... I've never *had* cancer, I'm 31 so kinda young (right? or is that old now? hahaha), and after having to pay an additional $500 for lab tests, results, ultrasounds, etc last year only to be given a clean bill of healt AGAIN makes me feel like he sees my medical history, but also sees dollar signs. I mean, I pay $400 a month just for medical coverage. I should NOT have to come out of pocket that much for my annual plus cancer screening. My blood work (standard physical stuff - cholestorol, blood sugar [I think], triglycerides, etc.) was $170 alone. This could just as easily have been my insurance vs. Dr Gunn, though.\r

I have only felt one member of the staff was a snot, and that's the lady you pay and set up another appointment with. She's a brunette with glasses, and she's older, which makes her behavior all the more odd to me. I expect that smarmy behavior from some 20 year old, not a grown woman who should know better. All other staff members are sweet, call you by your first name, and treat you well. \r

There are a lot of extra ""fancy"" services that this practice offers that aren't really necessary, but they can be interesting if you're willing to spend the $$$ or you have an insurance company that's awesome enough to cover the costs for you. Dr. K is awesome, and she handles the WOW physical. I was also told I was on the high end of normal body weight (150 at 5'7""), which I found odd, but I've lost weight now so whatevs.\r

All in all, I feel that this is a good practice with lots of knowledgeable staff. Dr. Gunn is by far one of the very best doctors I've ever seen, but I do feel that his care is also tied to his profits. He's more willing to give you tests you may or may not need that will give him more money, but I have always felt that he was attentive, listened to my concerns, and was willing to spend time with me -- that in and of itself is pretty priceless.
Pros: Generally warm staff, Dr. Gunn is GREAT
Cons: $$$$$, feel like I get charged for the prettiness
