Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Very good Doctor. I am glad I have her.
Always attentive

Please answer the phone!
Dr Gabor is great! The big problem is getting someone to answer the phone to make an appt, renew script, etc. I have called for weeks only to be put on hold. Please hire someone to answer the phone.

Dr Gabor is nearly impossible to reach by phone. There have been times when I tried for days. No exaggeration. I’ve had to drive to the office more than once just to be scheduled for an appointment because they are so short staffed that the phones just don’t get answered and there is no way to leave a voicemail. They rely on their patient portal for all communication and if you are not computer savvy, too bad for you. The dr herself comes in and stands at her computer, doesn’t even sit down, and appointments are rarely more than 5-7 minutes. This practice is not patient-forward, it’s business-forward. They overbook and it’s always an hour wait. If you have a cough, infection, sore throat, etc. , you will be told to go to urgent care. This dr is just not available other than for prescheduled appointments which are booked months out. $$$$$ is what matters here.

If you are looking for a primary care physician, look no further. Dr. Gabor is wonderful! She takes time to listen to patient concerns and questions and offers exceptionally compassionate care. I was referred to Dr Gabor by my mom who is also a patient. Dr Gabor is through and will reach out to follow up after and between visits to ensure the highest level of patient care. Her staff is always friendly and professional. I would highly recommend Dr Gabor to friends and family.

Dr. Gabor has been my primary care physician for about 8 years. I had been looking for a doctor in he Lake Mary area and she came highly recommended. She was an excellent choice. My last visit was a routine 6 month follow up and Dr. Gabor was, as usual, friendly, professional and very thorough.
