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.

Fabulous and as always professional and sadly my last visit! Now I have a year to find a new doctor.

John Guicheteau has been my personal physician for over 15 years. I find him to be very competent and very personable. I worked in the medical profession for 30+ years and asked many doctors who they would chose for a physician and Dr. Guicheteau’s name was mentioned many times and have very happy that I followed their recommendations.

Issues like Alzheimer's... it's not easy. There is no cure. Some doctors really do not know how to handle a patient with dementia. Dr G seems to know what he is doing, will tell it to you like it is, and listens to caregiver feedback.

I take my 86 year old mother with Alzheimer’s to see Dr Guicheteau. I can recommend him and his staff with no reservation. We are treated with courtesy and respect. He takes the time to listen to both my Mothers and my concerns and adjusts medication as needed. I always feel he explains in clear terms to both of us what he feels the medical issues are and his recommendations for care. Thank You

Dr. Guicheteau was very thorough and efficient in his exam and answered all my questions. I have a possible prostate cancer recurrence and have seen some specialists since I last saw Dr. Guicheteau, but he had read all the notes and was totally up to date on that matter.

I have seen Dr Guicheteau for the past several years and I am thankful for his thoroughness and years of experience. Dr Guicheteau looks for causes and solutions rather than just pushing pills.

I find Dr. Guicheteau reticent about following through with the medicines he prescribes for his patients. I was hesitant about taking a medicine because my mother and mother-in-law had had a bad experience with it yet it is an important blood pressure medicine. He did not prescribe it. The present doctor I have has prescribed it and we have worked out a careful plan to monitor the effect this medicine has on my blood pressure and on my reaction to the drug. His focus is also on the computer.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Guicheteau?
Brusque and handled me somewhat roughly. Didn't take any time asking questions or explaining anything about the growth next to my spine on my first encounter with him. My next meeting with him was better but when I saw his $215 charges to my insurance company for the cursory look he gave my ear, which was causing my concern (afterward he referred me to another physician), I was somewhat appalled.
