First of all I adore Dr.Gerstle. My baby had a rough start in his newborn stage and first year of life due to severe acid reflux and other side affects, and had so many doctors (all which were great btw) but once we encountered dr gerstle I specifically requested she be our forever doctor. She is extremely knowledgeable/professional, gentle and kind, and genuinely cares about both of my children. She always addresses my concerns thoroughly and educates me and makes me feel at ease when im worried about my baby. I wish i could just pick up the phone and call the office easily and hate that i have to go through the usf telephone system and wait for a call back, so the ease of telephone access is not great. My chart is excellent and the nurses and doctors are very attentive, but sometimes i need an answer immediately vs waiting a few hours. Aside from this, i love usf pediatrics, ive been coming here for 5 years and will continue even though its far from us.
