    He spent the entire app talking to my grandson about his weight and how to exercise and did not address his liver issues at all..I was very disappointed.

    Dr. Gibbons was great with patient. We have had issues with patient taking his shot and today it was done easily. Everything was explained perfectly and in a way that patient could understand. Great clinic visit.

    He is an excellent pediatric gastroenterologist! He discussed everything with me very thoroughly. One of the most caring and informative doctors I've ever spoken with. He was also wonderful to my daughter! He is an asset to UK Healthcare.

      He listens and explains things better than most doctors we see.
