I was a resident under Dr. Gavin’s training. I spent two years working with Dr. Gavin on a weekly basis in surgery. In that time I found him to be an invaluable source of knowledge, in addition to being one of the best surgeon’s I have worked with. Dr. Gavin has command of the anatomy that allows him to quickly adapt to anything that may occur during surgery. He has very good technique and is an excellent teacher, impressing all the important aspects of surgery on the residents to ensure the best possible outcomes for his patients and all the patients treated by those of us he trained. I found Dr. Gavin to form excellent and string bonds with his patients, giving them confidence that they have selected the right physician. I am a better doctor for having trained under Dr. Gavin and he is an asset to the community he serves
