Dr. Gurgel has been a life saver for me and my ongoing ear issue. He has done surgery now on it three times and my body is having a hard time healing and I have had this ear problem now for over four years. I trust Dr. Gurgel and know what he is doing is for my best interest. He is very good about answering my questions and is always so nice about getting back to me. I have some other underlying health issues as well, but Dr. Gurgel is very patient with me and wants me to get better. I'd recommend him to anyone!!!

Dr. Gurgel is an amazing clinician. I hold him directly responsible for the improvement in my hearing. He treated me and my husband with care and concern. He was determined to do anything he could to help me and I felt that he was sincere in all of his efforts. In no way did he go through the motions, he did the work and put in the effort. I believe in him 100% and trust him with my care with out reservation. His team was also excellent; everyone from the front line staff, to the MA's, to the nurse, residents, and medical students was present and caring.

Dr. Gurgel is awesome!!!! Last week I had a big issues with my ear that never seems to go away and I couldn't hear out of it so Gurgel was in surgery that whole day and was so good to fit me right in last Tuesday before he went on vacation. I couldn't hear out of my ear and we did an audiogram and then he saw that my ear was draining a lot more than normal. I am grateful that he was able to fit me in that day and he is always willing to see me when I need to get in, and is always very concerned for me and my well fare.

UofU Patient
October 15, 2018
I ALWAYS feel like Dr. Gurgel really cares about me as his patient!! He had been seeing me now of a year and a half and my ear is still SLOWLY healing. I am grateful for how caring he and Kris are with me and when I have a problem they both are there to problem solve for their patients. I am grateful that I haven't worn out my welcome up at Dr. Gurgels office since I have been seeing him for so long with my ear problems.

UofU Patient

Dr. Gurgel was excellent--explained my medical issue thoroughly, listened to my concerns, answered all my questions. He explained what he was doing every step of the way during the tube-insertion procedure.

Dr. G said everything was fine but his hearing and balance are worse. Not sure what to do to help, he did suggest we check out the hearing specialist in Richfield and could be fit with a different aid.

UofU Patient
September 20, 2018
Dr Gurgel took time with me, was thorough in his explanation of my situation, the surgery required, and answering my questions.

UofU Patient
September 18, 2018
Dr. Gurgel is amazing!! He is so good with my ongoing ear issue and I feel like it will never heal, but he is THE BEST and is keeping me as comfortable as we he can this ear of mine is trying to heal. Being diabetic is hindering alot of things and he is so patient with me and is reassuring me that he is going to fix it!! That says alot of about a doctor who definitely cares for his patients!!

UofU Patient
September 04, 2018
Dr. Gurgel is the best doctor I have ever worked with.

UofU Patient
August 27, 2018
Oh, my, I can't tell you how wonderful our experience was. Dr Gurgel never once made us feel rushed. He answered our question w/ kindness, thoughtfulness, and caring. He fully described the procedure he would be doing the next day, instructed us on follow-up. His mannerisms gave us every confidence in him and relieved any anxiety we might have had.

UofU Patient
August 23, 2018
Dr. spent his time explaining the potential problems for my current situation. Explained pharmaceuticals that were available and likely to help.

UofU Patient
August 16, 2018
I could tell he was in a hurry and there were a couple minor questions I had that I didn't feel like I had time to ask.

UofU Patient
August 15, 2018
Difficulty on receiving a requested phone call from provider to discuss new finding on my ear. Although, understand the busy schedule sustained.

UofU Patient
August 13, 2018
Where do I even start to praise Dr. Gurgel!! We are a year and half almost into my never ending healing saga with my ear and and Dr. Gurgel, is always concerned for me. This last visit I have had severe facial swelling on my left side and my blood sugars have been high and I have another infx in my ear and he is constantly worrying about me as his patient. I told him he couldn't go out of town because every time he goes out of town I always end up bothering him, but he doesn't seem to mind and I know I am in good hands with him. He continues to search for ways to fix my ear and knows the struggles I am dealing with daily on my ear. I am truly grateful for him and all of the staff there in helping in my care.

UofU Patient
August 13, 2018
Dr. Gurgel and his resident and nurse went above and beyond in describing my condition and the corrective procedure.

UofU Patient

Kate was very thorough and helpful in explaining how a cochlear implant works and what is involved in the surgery. Careful to answer questions. Brooke did a great job of scheduling all the needed appointments. Dr. Gurgel was kind and straightforward.

UofU Patient
June 05, 2018
I referred my nephew to see Dr. Gurgel and he was able to get an appointment with him on the 2nd of July. Dr. Gurgel was excited to take care of my nephew and he is still working on getting my ear to be a good healthy ear again. I have complete confidence and care in him.

UofU Patient
April 09, 2018
Dr. Gurgel is always available when I have had a question and need help no matter what time of the day it is, I can always get in touch with him and know that a nurse will get back with him with his response.

Dr. Gurgel is one and a million!!!! He is so caring and no matter how complicated your issue or health concern is, he goes out of his way to ensure that he WILL find the answer for you!! I don't think he knew exactly what he was getting into when he took me on as a patient, but I am sure grateful for all of the time he spends with me and reaches out to me in my time of need!!

UofU Patient
December 26, 2017
Dr. Gurgel takes as much time as I need to with him. I am as he put it, "one of his harder cases" and my body doesn't like to heal very well so it has taken him a lot longer to take care of me, but he is always so available when I need to get in and always goes WAY OUT OF HIS WAY AND ABOVE AND BEYOND to make sure I am taken care of. This girl is a high maintenance patient, but he is always striving to find other ways on how to treat my on going ear condition.

UofU Patient
December 19, 2017
Where do I start with this one?? Dr. Gurgel is so awesome with me!! I have been dealing with my ear issue now for over four years and my body seems to be rejecting my healing process and Dr. Gurgel has been so patient and supportive of my ear issue. He is always looking for ways to help my ear heal faster and if he doesn't have the answers for me, he will go above and beyond to try and find the answer. Little did he know how big of A CASE ____ I was going to be for him. He is always so pleasant with me and I feel so dumb sometimes going to see him because I am not healing and he is right there to reassure me that I am doing everything that I can possibly do. HE IS THE BEST AND ALWAYS TAKES GOOD CARE OF ME!!!

UofU Patient

He was very courteous and well informed.

UofU Patient
September 24, 2017
Dr. Gurgel did not give me or document in the visit plan all the instructions necessary for follow up care. I found out after the fact when I emailed his nurse that I need to have my ear checked yearly for the retraction pocket. He did not say this nor elaborate on this finding. I'm grateful to the nurse Kris for replying to my email promptly in which she mentioned this aftercare otherwise I wouldn't have known.

UofU Patient
August 29, 2017
I'm very happy with the way my procedure went!! Very happy with the result. Doctor was wonderful!!

UofU Patient
July 11, 2017
I enjoyed my whole experience with Dr Gurgel!, he took excellent care of me, I trust him, and always very comfortable, with him

UofU Patient
July 02, 2017
I ended up waiting for over an hour. The Dr. spent about 5 minutes with me. When I informed him that I had moved to Moab, he stated that he would suggest hearing aids and it would be best to go to someone closer to home, any other quetions? He did not suggest using anyone within the U of U system of give me any information on possible hearing aid options. I go back to Salt Lake frequently and had planned on keeping my primary Physician, in Park City and my specialists. I think it is safe to say that I will not be going back to Dr. Gurgel. I felt that he just hurried me along so he could get caught up on his schedule. The good news is he did clear some wax out of my ears. I have been going to various Dr.'s throughout the U of U and have always been very impressed. I am very disappointed in this visit.

UofU Patient
May 02, 2017
I was very please at how engaged Dr Gurgel was as we talked about my history and current concerns.

UofU Patient
March 01, 2017
Dr Gurgel is an exceptional practitioner, empathetic, kind, courteous and very approachable in my opinion

UofU Patient
February 26, 2017
Dr. Gurgel and his staff are amazing. I live 3 hours away and they are so kind to fit me in due to an emergency or just to give me a mid morning appt. due to our drive time. I can't explain in words how wonderful this Dr. and staff are. I trust no other Dr. at all with my ear issue. It took 20 years for a Dr to figure out my problem and I'll continue with Dr Gurgel from here on out. He is kind, and sympathetic to my issues at all times.

UofU Patient
February 12, 2017
Love Dr. Gurgel's calm professional demeanor d and his nurse Chris makes sure I understand directions and even makes suggestions of thinks I might need to ask.

December 09, 2016
I think I could not expect better treatment - Dr Gurgel was very thorough - he gave me news I did not expect or want to hear, even though I had an inkling that there might be a problem; he answered all my questions and follow-up emails. I feel I am in good hands

UofU Patient
November 26, 2016
I like Dr. Gurgel a lot. I wish he had a solution for my condition. He does not. He knows this makes me very sad.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
September 01, 2016
Everyone is always wonderful, but I do have some questions about moving from where I live, my constant dizziness (which I think is better with the tube in) and if I might lose hearing in my right ear as well. We were late, and there just wasn't time. I'll write an e-mail soon.

UofU Patient
August 24, 2016

UofU Patient
May 06, 2016
Dr Gurgel is great! He is very personable and takes whatever time you need to understand what's happening and what needs to be done. He smiles and is kind and caring. I didn't mind waiting awhile because I knew he would take time with me. He doesn't act rushed. I think he's an amazing doctor. And he fixed my hearing!

UofU Patient
April 21, 2016
Dr. was very efficient in addressing results of recent CAT scan. Answered all my questions. Nurse was in exam room typing notes into computer. Dr. appeared extremely competent and friendly. I asked for and received copy of audiology study. It appeared very important to dr. that all my questions were answered.

UofU Patient
March 25, 2016

February 01, 2016
I appreciated the time Dr Gurbel spent with me and he listened.

UofU Patient
January 31, 2016
Dr. Gurgel was extremely knowledgeable, personable, thorough, and professional. I would recommend him to anyone. He took me seriously, was a great listener, and seemed to genuinely care about my condition and despite being very booked, took time to explain everything. He obviously knew what he was doing, and took clear steps to troubleshoot my issue. I left feeling very positive and optimistic about a condition that has plagued me for a years.

UofU Patient
January 18, 2016
Very positive outcome from the surgery that I had on 30 December. Dr. Gurgel listened and acted on my concerns after surgery during this appointment.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
November 13, 2015
I hopeing this Doctor help me with my medical problems.

UofU Patient
November 04, 2015
The doctor was very kind, and helped me in many ways. Overall I left not really knowing what my future will hold. I do not know if that is because my condition is still not fully known, or if the doctor is yet to tell me everything.

UofU Patient
October 23, 2015
Maybe it's just the frustration of trying to figure out what is causing my symptoms, but I was a little upset that after months waiting to get an appointment, the diagnosis was 'it's probably referred jaw pain' and to be referred to see yet another specialist. Again, I trust the doctor and maybe that's exactly what it is, but I'm tired of doctors sending me to more doctors rather than actually helping figure out what is going on. I should probably be frustrated with the previous doctor who sent me to an ENT specialist rather than an allergist or the optometrist who said it's probably allergies rather than doing any sort of exam or testing.

UofU Patient
October 22, 2015
Dr. Gurgel was very friendly and spent time answering all our questions. He did not seem rushed and was very professional.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
September 06, 2015
I went to ER with complications from a hard to diagnose problem that was overlooked at first, Dr. Gurgel was willing to look again (even though he had ruled out my real problem at the first), The problem was found. I appreciate that and regard him highly for that.

UofU Patient
September 01, 2015
The prepared brochure on my condition was very effective because I work better with visual information. It was available in a rack on the wall of the room. The doctor used it.

UofU Patient
August 30, 2015
We really liked the doctor and he was very caring and explained everything so well and we were so happy we were able to see him. We liked him a lot.

I have never met a Dr. and staff that I was more comfortable with from the surgery to my appointments than Dr. Gurgel and his staff.

UofU Patient
June 21, 2015
Doctor went out of his way to treat me when I needed urgent care (another location). At the ENT clinic all staff were professional but pleasant to deal with. I noticed that the doctor treated his staff with real courtesy as well as his patients.

Made me few very comfortable and my questions were important.

UofU Patient
August 07, 2014
On 7) I answered V Good. Actually, the doctor actually dumbed things down way too much. I would prefer Dr. Gurgel assume I know a lot and am fluent in med terminology. He could simplify down if necessary. It wastes precious visit time when the level is too low.

UofU Patient

He told me that there are wax ear plugs that would allow me to swim after having an ear tube, but the pharmacy told me that they no longer make those and there is not product that he knew of to allow me to swim with an ear tube in place. This is false information and has a lot of bearing on my decision to have the ear tube.

I had some imortant remaining questions arising from the discussion with Dr Gurgel. Because of mental fogginess from my condition at the time I wasn't able to bring them to mind in the visit. A couple of prompting questions might have helped me leave with more of my questions answered.

I was especially impressed by Dr. Gurgle's friendliness and thoroughness in explaining details concerning the cochlear implant; the doctor even changed his schedule to accommodate me. The doctor is undoubtedly the most friendly caretaker I have ever visited. The physician's assistant and nurse practitioner were very friendly and professional in their work.
