Dr. Gajewski has been a Godsend. He put me and my daughter at ease with her diagnosis and procedure. His follow up exam was professional and encouraging.

Dr. Gajewski was terrific as well as the entire office staff. He took the time to understand our concerns, recommended immediate diagnostics, and made timely and appropriate recommendations while taking the time to explain all alternatives. Wonderful experience.

We were greeted warmly by your reg staff, the nurse who roomed my son was kind and professional. Dr. G and his resident were great- took time explaining my son’s x rays and changes that had occurred. They were focused on him and the reason for our visit- we never felt rushed. I am grateful to have this care and team of professionals for my son.

Dr. G is the best doctor that we have ever had at Dayton Children's. He is patient, he is thoughtful, he always takes his time and explains things and makes sure that my daughter has the best care possible and that she's not in any pain and he's always quick to get us in when there is an issue or a problem. He makes it easy to get in and see him and he takes care of my daughter and we greatly appreciate him.

Gajewski is awesome, cares about the patients, really took the time to listen to us, made sure that our fears were real, and told us what we should and shouldn't do. Fantastic doctor, 10 out of 10.

Dr Gajewski is a hero for patching up our athlete after a terrible fracture on the field. We are all feeling confident that he will soon return to what he loves. (The table in the exam room of our 2 week follow up visit looked filthy)

Very good doctor, explained to me about my son's spine and advised him to do exercise to avoid wearing back braces.

Dr. Gajowski is the best doctor, adult or pediatrician, that we have ever had the pleasure of working with. He is patient, takes time to listen, and truly cares about his patients. We've had multiple surgeries with him, with our youngest daughter, and he is of the utmost professional when we interact with him every single time.
