Review for Dr. Gerald Guillory I have been a patient of Dr. Guillory over twenty years. I have stayed with him for all these years because he has a vast breadth of knowledge, he talks to me and not at me, he focuses as much on keeping me healthy as he does in dealing with any health issue I might have and I really like his holistic philosophy of health. His explanations are clear and he answers questions directly. He mines me for information and then works to connect the dots. And he channels his ideas and recommendations within the value boundaries of his patients without compromising his medical analyses or his solutions. Beyond medicine, he also advises on lifestyle changes that a patient can make to enhance their health. As a result, I have improved on a variety of personal health metrics ranging from my Ac1 score to my inflammation levels to even my heart parameters. He also instills confidence that one has the power to impact their health in positive ways. I especially like that he has a nutritionist professional on his staff. I've learned more about the relationship between food and health than I ever thought I would and to my significant benefit. I would suggest that having such an allied professional in the office is an asset that you won't find in many doctor offices. Finally, when I have had serious issues of concern, he was right on top of them. He didn't hesitate to get me the additional attention that I needed and I remain grateful for that. My only criticism is that some of his office staff can be very difficult to work and communicate with. Others are terrific. I end where I began. My testimonial is backed up by the fact that I have continued on as his patient for these many years because I trust him with the oversight and to some extent even the management, of my overall health.

All around great office. There's very few places that seem to be on time these days. But Dr G's office has rarely kept me waiting for long in the office trying to find things to read on my phone. The whole staff is really nice and personable! Dr G is through, knowledge, nice, and explains things really well. And when you're done with the stuff you came in for he always asks, "is there anything else?" Wait, you're not trying to rush me outta here? Great place! read more

Ask yourself how many doctors you've been to ask you what you eat? Not many. This care group truly CARES! I can not tell you how much this place has helped me personally as well as my family. If you want a personalized plan to how your individual body works within your environment, and diet and stress level than this place has got your back. Also Dani at the front desk is the sweetest. 10 out 10 customer service. Make an appointment it will literally SAVE YOUR LIFE! read more

Unfortunately The Care Group is no longer. Dr. Guillory has retired, and his practice has been taken over by Aurora Family Medicine and moved to S. Potomac. It is now a standard medical practice, no longer functional medicine. Not to say if it's good or bad, but just an update as we were patients for years. My rating reflects 'neutrality' as I haven't worked with the new doctors and plan to find a new functional practice. read more

I've been a patient with The Care Group for about 10 years - overall the staff is friendly and helpful. Dani, at the front desk, is one the most caring, patient, empathetic front desk employees I have experienced at this practice. She is a gem - and a great first impression for this caring team. read more

Dr. Guillory is excellent in dealing with gut issues. He set me straight on looking at natural foods that eliminate soy & gluten in the diet. I feel far better every day as a result. Blood results confirm it. I can't say enough about a holistic approach to health. Dr. Guillory addresses internal medicine. A focus on range-fed eggs, organic berries, drinking .5-1 oz water / lb you weigh, getting your daily synbiotics, cruciferous veggies, leafy greens, SMASH fish, resistant starch veggies, pro- & pre-biotics, teas, mushrooms, onions, & garlic. It's a short list, but long on health. Combine this with chiropractic & acupuncture, and you're well on your way to great physical health. Go for it! read more

This is a very kind and welcoming environment. Dr G really wants to help fix what ails you. Be prepared to put in some work of your own, a change in diet is mandatory. But, if you really want to find the root cause and try to fix your problems instead of treating your symptoms, you should be willing to do what it takes. I am very happy with the treatment and the knowledge Dr. G and his staff pass on to you as the patient. I have suffered years of gastrointestinal issues and am finally seeing the light. Its not always cheap or easy but I know I will have many more healthy and happy years ahead of me because of the teamwork and care given by The Care Group, P.C. read more

I am so impressed with Dr. Guillory. I have been searching for years for a doctor that leads with holistic healing and I am so happy I found one! I would recommend The Care Group to just about anyone. 10/10! read more

These people are quacks- who asks for a deposit for an appointment when you have health insurance. You get the right act about holistic medicine, cant get an appointment until you complete the new patient paperwork. read more

I have been a patient of Dr Guillory and the Care Group Since 1985. I believe Dr Guillory's holistic approach to health care is second to none. He believes that diet and supplements are the healthiest way to maintain good health and only using medications when it's the superior solution. Dr G truly cares for his patients! read more

Dr. Guillory has been the only doctor that has helped me with all of my symptoms. Even though I have went to see many neurologists, I have even had some tell me that I was making up my pain. I went to see holistic doctors and that's what was able to help me. I have so much joint and nerve pain that it was inhibiting me from doing normal life things. Dr. Guillory has helped me get on low dose naltrexone and amitriptyline as well as multiple vitamins to help me have a quality life of living. But now, he is retiring because of the new owners that don't practice holistic medicine. I can get amitriptyline at any other doctors but the low-dose naltrexone is something I can't get from a normal doctor. I'm scared because he is our last resort for a holistic doctor in Colorado, all of the other ones have closed. The medicine he has put me on has been a miracle worker and he only keeps getting my health better and better each day. Before seeing Dr. Guillory I was stuck in bed for hours before my body would allow me enough energy to get up. And now since I have seen him I am able to live a life like normal. It's sad that the American "Western Medicine" doesn't not acknowledge holistic medicine when it has helped many more people. Not everything is solved with pills, there is a deeper meaning why we have the health problems that we have. I'm so scared that he is leaving because this means my health is at risk as well. The help he has giving me and my family is more than what we can ask for and I am scared that I have to start all over again just because they won't honor the way he sees medicine. read more

I started seeing Dr. Guillory last month after dealing with some major digestive issues for decades. I hesitated to see an MD because my past experience wasn't very positive. The first doctor I went to told me that my symptoms were impossible and there was no way what I was describing was plausible. Dr. Guillory and his team were the exact opposite. Not only did they listen and validate what I was experiencing, they had the experience and strategy to help me get well! I have had significant improvement in the last 30 days...more than I've had in years. The staff is friendly and helpful, the nutritionists are amazingly smart, the med students are fantastic, and Dr. Guillory is just plain brilliant. The man knows his stuff. Our entire family is now transitioning our care over to Dr. Guillory and his team. We love the functional medicine approach and are so grateful to have found a doctor that shares our values and philosophy when it comes to healthcare! read more

I'm borrowing my wife's account to write this review because Dr. Guillory is so great that I wanted to spread the word. I was elated to find Dr. Guillory after a long search for the right primary care physician. I've been looking for someone who takes a functional medicine approach to health, which means that they look for the root causes of things, as opposed to just putting a "band-aid" on the symptoms without digging deeper. I believe the end-result of this approach is much better overall health. I also wanted to find a doctor that understands how critical nutrition is to health. Dr. Guillory is all of these things, and he practices medicine in as natural of a way as possible. If you are looking for an MD that accepts traditional insurance and takes a functional medicine approach to health, I highly recommend Dr. Guillory. Dr. Guillory is also a published author and expert on digestive health and digestive-related conditions with years and years of experience. He is very passionate about helping people heal their digestive tract and relieve the many digestive and non-digestive symptoms that people experience due to digestive issues. He has also incorporated much of the latest research and solutions on intestinal permeability into his work with patients, which is something most doctors aren't even aware of, let alone successfully treat like Dr. Guillory does. Dr. Guillory also has several excellent holistic nutrition therapists on staff that are able to work closely with him as he works with patients. This is an incredible asset to his practice, and I'm very impressed by the way he's integrated them into his office and made them available to patients. It's also worth mentioning that Dr. Guillory has a very good bedside manner. He listens to what you have to say as a patient, and it's evident that he really cares and enjoys helping patients get healthier. If you are looking for a run-of-the-mill doctor, look elsewhere. If you are looking for the kinds of things that I was searching for, or if you've ever experienced digestive issues and would like to find a real solution to them, I highly recommend Dr. Guillory. read more

I see Jennifer Mooney - I cant say enough good things about her. She always takes plenty of time to talk to me, listen to me and really pays attention to what I'm saying. She's kind and caring and I was at a point in my life when I needed compassion and I needed to find out how to cope. She's incredibly knowledgeable about female hormones and has taken the time to balance mine through a series of appointments and blood work. I feel so lucky to know that I can call her when I have any kind of medical problem. I can't recommend anyone more highly! read more

I've been seeing Dr. Guillory since 2011. He is an excellent doctor, genuinely and personally interested in his patients. He has an "integrated" approach to medicine, which means that he works with the whole body, healthy foods and supplements, and other treatments, instead of just writing a slew of prescriptions to try to get rid of health problems. (Of course, he writes prescriptions when they are needed.) But the integrated approach works! At this point, I've lost over 30 pounds and increased my overall health tremendously with hardly any effort simply by removing wheat from my diet. Dr. Guillory's approach has cured many people who could not be helped by conventional medicine and drugs. Check out his website and see what his Care Group has to offer. They're great, and I recommend them very highly! read more

Wonderful doctor. HORRIBLE office staff. I love Dr. Guillory and every nutritionist at the practice. Unfortunately, to get to them, you have to go through the worst office staff I have ever encountered. They act annoyed when you have concerns or questions, and it is virtually impossible to get someone on the phone, and options on their phone system have been disconnected. From my first visit, I have found Dr. Guillory to be warm, professional, and wonderful in every sense of the word. A stark contrast to his cold hurried, and belittling office staff. The billing practices are confusing, and coding is inconsistent, meaning you better make sure you understand how they will be coding your visit - because when you get a surprise bill, they will make sure you know it is your responsibility to understand how your insurance works. The office staff is so bad I will be looking for another doctor. read more

I am a medical student that just finished working with Dr. Guillory and the Care Group for the past 2 months. Dr. Guillory practices functional medicine using diet and supplements to "remove what is making you sick and replace what you are deficient in." Reflecting back, I realized I can't even count the number of people that said his approach had truly changed their lives. By delving into functional medicine I was able to optimize my own health to feel more energized and focused than I can ever remember, which is really great as I start my 4th year. I've found that it is rare to find physicians in this day and age that really treat the patient as a whole; Dr. Guillory does that exceedingly well. Additionally, his office staff is incredible. They are the most hard-working, compassionate, fun group of girls I've worked with. His two nutritionists are a wealth of knowledge and should be utilized if you go there! read more

Five stars isn't enough! There is so much more to this practice than meets the eye. Dr. Guillory uses conventional medicine and a holistic approach together. He looks at the whole body rather than at each symptom. This is a lost art in medicine today because doctors are trained now to a Standard of Care which looks only at a symptom and treats only that symptom with pharmaceuticals. This bandaid method falls way short of a cure for the real cause. Most times our symptoms are signs of bigger problems but with conventional medicine and a specialist for every body system, it is difficult to impossible to really find out your health problem using this method. This practice is amazing because they get to the bottom of what is really wrong with you instead of doing general testing and blood work and then just handing you a prescription. I came in for a myriad of symptoms and in two weeks had a total turn around. They also use a nutritional approach, recognizing that the food we put in our bodies has EVERYTHING to do with our health. They show you how to incorporate better nutrition into your lifestyle which builds your immune system and strengthens your overall health. I implore anyone and everyone to come and check out The Care Group. It will extend your life and Quality of life. Do not let the cost of the supplements put you off. Your health is worth the cost. You must invest in yourself & in order to do that, you have to buy quality. read more

Outstanding provider, with deep knowledge and an approach that will almost certainly improve your health. I'm very pleased I found this practice and recommend it highly. read more

I've worked with Doctor Guillory for a few years. While I like what he's trying to do with his practice, I've found The bone he has to pick with the medical establishment has unbalanced his approach to treatment. Not all things we know are supported by research but some are and should be considered for treatment. If someone needs an antibiotic or some of other standard treatment for an ailment, it should be considered as a possible solution. read more

Dr. Guillory is the most caring and knowledgeable doctors I've ever known. He has been able to diagnose underlying issues that other specialists weren't. His outlook on how your digestive health affects your total health has changed the way I view my wellbeing. read more

Dr Guillory is an excellent doctor! I had been struggling with horrible health issues related to my total thyroid removal 14 years ago due to papillary cancer. I had seen several endocrinologists over the years who always said I was fine based on my numbers, meanwhile I felt terrible! Dr Guillory tests your whole throid panel (which most endocrinologists don't) and by doing so diagnosed my issues and got me on the road to recovery. That was 2 years ago. Leaky gut by the way plays a role in endocrine/thyroid health and I did go gluten free 2 years ago as Dr. Guillory suggested. I am thankful every day for Dr. Guillory! I cannot recommend his practice enough! read more

Refreshing! Recently saw Dr. Guillory and found it refreshing to have a doctor care more about how I feel, than being overly concerned about my lab values. Finally a doctor focused on nutrition and wellness instead of writing prescriptions; a doctor who understands thyroid and adrenal issues who is open to modern medical research. What's more the whole staff is kind and welcoming. read more

Seriously. It is about damn time. I am a minimalist when it comes to medicine. I have been searching for a doctor that looks at the cause of a problem rather than the traditional western approach of treating the symptoms. Dr. Guillory is board certified in internal medicine but he takes a very holistic approach in my care and is looking for the root of a problem and not a band aid. He's intelligent, professional, and takes his time with his patients. I am a new patient, but I'm hooked. He is exactly what I have been looking for in a doctor for years. I just wish he had a pediatrician in his office. Seriously - if you want a doctor that listens and wants to get to the bottom of things then go here. read more

I heard Dr. G speak at an event and have since changed my care to The Care Group, PC. I'm sort of a complicated mess and Dr G managed to figure out what was going on quickly and efficiently! I highly recommend receiving care here. The office staff is friendly and efficient and Catrina, Dr G's nurse is awesome! read more

Dr Guillory is the worst that I have ever been to-charges were super high. And he prescribed all this expensive "stuff" without even doing a test. He did not even address what I went there for! AVOID read more

This office has changed my life. If you are looking for wellness, this office is the place! I can't thank the providers enough for the education and putting me on a gut - healing journey. read more

After 4 years running from doctor to doctor I FINALLY found someone that actually LISTENS. These days all doctors are in a rush; they see you as business, not as a patient, a human being. Here at The Care Group, I was seen by Debra Baldwin and it only took 2 visits to get me on my way to healing. I work in the medical field, with numerous doctors and medical providers every day. I was very pleasantly impressed by the care I received here. No more guessing, no more pleading, no more feeling judged and being told: "You just need to exercise more and eat lots of veggies, quit wasting my time!" I'm very thankful and glad I persisted until I found The Care Group. They really live up to their name. read more

This office is awesome! I have been to many doc offices and this one tops them all. When you need to see someone for your health, you want to make sure the place you choose is clean, friendly, and reliable. This place will impress you and get you healthy! The staff were extremely friendly and efficient. Shout out to MSN Jen Mooney for being AWESOME :) read more

One of the reasons I hated to move from Denver was because I had to give up Dr Guillory and his team. When I first got to Denver I was referred by my son- in-law . I thought I was going to die and got no help from western medicine including the almighty John Hopkins Team. I had terrible abdominal pain , could not even drink water , belched all the time, had headaches and cold hands . I had lost a great deal of weight and only was getting worse . Dr guillory immediately diagnosed me with IBS, leaky gut and severe Gastritis. I followed his "Leaky Gut "protocol and started feeling better within a couple of weeks and ultimately fully cured . I had several follow ups and ultimately began seeing his NP Debra for general care . Very professional and a real competent NP with a great bedside manner. I follow the protocol occasionally when I have overstepped my boundaries with the wrong foods . But essentially I am a new person. Boy does this practice ROCk! This team gets my vote in all read more

Dr. Gulliroy did not review the lab tests that we had brought in so was unaware of important markers. When I asked him more questions related to this he seemed a bit offended that I was pushing for more answers. Then he had to admit that he had missed looking at the thyroid hormone tests. This seemed to embarrass him. Instead of him pausing and apologizing and actually taking a through look at the results, he seemed more upset with us for his being embarrassed. He has an agenda, which is leaky gut, so instead of actually discussing our concern--excess thyroid hormone--he pushed the concept that all of the health issues currently experienced were due to leaky gut. Then we met with the nutritionist who tried to get us to buy a supplement with iodine. The issue we came in about was a concern with excess thyroid hormone, so a supplement with iodine may be contraindicated. But since the only concern here appears to be to sell you over priced supplements to treat leaky gut, why would they be concerned that something may be contraindicated. They did not answer our questions regarding excess thyroid hormone. It would have been better to go see a conventional doctor instead of going to a place that is supposedly functional, but will still not listen to your concerns or look at your tests throughly. read more

I found Dr. Guillory after searching for a physician who understands thyroid disease, and would treat it properly. Someone who does not diagnose and treat based on the TSH, but who would support optimal levels of FT3, and FT4, and who understands all of the necessary tests that should be run. Dr. Guillory is a functional medicine physician, so his approach is whole body wellness. His specialty is IBS, so be prepared to spend money on natural supplements, and to change your diet if necessary. I am pleased to say, that Dr. Guillory has brought my thyroid function up close to where it should be, after several years of poor treatment under another doctor. We're working on a few other things, that will hopefully bring it up to optimal levels. The supplements he sells seem to be very good quality, and have for the most part, worked very well. He does not seem to be intimidated by well informed patients, which seems to be a rare quality in a physician. My only complaint, is that his office is quite a distance to travel to, but for optimal health, is something I'm willing to compromise on. read more
