About Dr. Gurtler

I specialize in Cancer Care. I became a healthcare provider because my father was a physician and would bring me to meet his patients. I fell in love then. My patients can count on me to provide extraordinary care in their fight against cancer,

My little something extra

I have a tree farm, and I love to watch trees grow. I find nature very healing.

Yes, Dr. Gurtler was thorough and she's always compassionate. This is a complex face, squamous cell carcinoma, yet she fully understands the issue and she put my mind at ease and really articulated where patients with similar situations fall that more than likely some of the pain I'm experiencing has nothing to do with cancer. But she really worked me through a pretty sound appointment that really gave me a lot of peace of mind. Jayne Gurtler is one of the very best in the space of oncology and I appreciate her every day and as many years as I've worked with her, she's been a gift to my family.
