Dr Guthrie is very compassionate and attuned to her patients. I have recommended several people to go to her because she cares and shows it. Not once did I feel like a body with something she had to cut out of it. Nor did I ever feel after surgery that she was no longer interested. Other surgeons often give that impression. She also takes the time to ensure we understand each other. Dr Guthrie is an exceptional standout in the long list of doctors I've known over the years. Hospital staff told me they would choose her if they needed her specialty. Some had referred family to her. That's high praise from fellow medical professionals.
