“Dr. Guse is the BEST!! Saw him the first time in 2008 (year of the flood) when I tore my ACL & miniscus in my left knee - totally! Surgery went great and so did my rehab. Now I've injured my wrist and doing rehab for it. Dr. Guse always makes you feel important as his patient. He's never in a hurry - sits down to talk to you and never has 1 hand on the door trying to leave. I recommend him to my friends and family whenever they have problems. Love this Dr.!!!!!”

Loose, but tight, numbing, losing my pulse down my left arm, purple coloring, etc. Dr. Guse took his time with different test to eliminate diagnoses.

“After experiencing multiple injury accidents, I was kind of a mess - physically and emotionally. After emergency surgery in Bloomington where the accident occurred, I returned home to North Vernon to await a needed second surgery. I visited Dr. Guse to discuss this intervention, and he was very helpful in assisting me in timing it appropriately. He subsequently performed the surgery and provided follow up in a manner that can only describe as "totally optimal." His surgical skills appear above reproach, and his ability to empathize and be understanding of my personal experience was most impressive. He is a good guy. I am very thankful to him for his services and assistance.”
