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.

Dr. Gullett is fabulous. She creates a treatment plan specific for each patient. She cares about the whole patient and well being from recommending diet changes, skin care treatment to reduce burns created by radiation, options for mental care. If you go to Dr. Gullett for radiation treatment for breast cancer she is concerned with much more than your radiation treatments. She will have researched and recommend different treatments such as steeped green tea on areas treated, acupuncture to improve sleep. Dr. Gullett truly has a heart for her patients and their overall well being. I considered myself so fortunate to be under her care for my breast cancer. She is truly an advocate for her patients and a crown jewel of the medical field.

I was under the care of Dr. Gullett for radiation treatments because of benign pituitary tumors. She was so supportive and patient with me when I was nervous. It has always been a pleasure to talk and visit with her.

Dr. Norleena Gullett was over my CyberKnife treatments for lung cancer. I am now cancer free, but continue to see her for my follow-up CT scans. She is truly amazing! Sadly today, there are not many doctors that take the necessary time with their patients in regards to health concerns. That is not the case with Dr. Gullett. She does all in her power to alleviate any concerns or fears that you may have. Her staff is absolutely wonderful too! Upon entering the doors you are made to feel like family. My daughter loves going with me for all of my appointments because she was also impressed from the very start. Dr. Norleena Gullett is the best of the best! Cancer treatments are nothing like they used to be. Advancements in medical technology are giving all of us safer options with greater survival rates. You can rest assured that Dr. Gullett is extremely knowledgeable in any treatment advancements. I am so thankful to have her as one of my doctors.

The third time I was diagnosed with breast cancer it was advanced enough to require chemo and radiation. It was important for me to find female practitioners to serve on my care team, and I so appreciate Dr. Gullett’s honesty, and her current knowledge in the radiology field. My care was excellent.

My daughter has stage 4 gliablastoma brain cancer and received radiation care with Dr. Gullett. She got the best possible care and Dr. Gullett was extremely helpful in ensuring that she got the treatment she needed as quickly as possible. We put our trust in Dr. Gullett and it was not misplaced. She helped get my daughter better and she did it with such compassion and care towards my daughter and family during this time. She is truly a blessing.

Dr Gullet made me feel more hopeful after talking with her. Breast cancer doesn't just affect your body it affects the way you feel about yourself. She was very positive and that made me feel positive. I recommend her to the women I've met that are in my position.

Dr. Gullette and her staff are amazing. She explained my diagnosis and care plan in great detail and takes her time with me at each visit — I never feel rushed. Her support staff is so efficient - I never have to wait to get treated - my average time in and out of the hospital is 15 minutes. That’s unheard of these days, but they all value my time and it shows in the way they conduct themselves and their business. I feel very fortunate and blessed to be under Dr. Gullette’s care.

Dr. Gullett was thorough, personable and concerned. I wanted to explore a treatment not offered in my area. She took a lot of time, diagrammed my disease process and the recommended treatment. I was not a candidate for the SAVi Brachy treatment. If I had been, I would have Dr. Gullett treat my breast cancer. I made my treatment choices based on her recommendations and I believe I was better informed because of my visit with Dr. Gullett.

Excellent. Dr. Gullet was caring, concerned, informative, supportive, friendly and efficient. She was very informed in her field and was able to discuss my options so that we could make a decision about a healthcare plan. I saw Dr Gullett twice a day for a week and she was always positive with me and the staff. If one needs to see an oncologist, Dr. Gullett is an excellent choice and you will be in very capable hands.
