Biography

Dr Guernsey loves the calling of being a family doctor. He loves caring for patients no matter their age or the subject matter. He is equally excited to pursue the answer to a patient’s  medical mystery or to accompany them on their journey with a chronic illness such as high blood pressure or diabetes. He brings experience with many office-based procedures including suturing lacerations, joint injections, incisions and drainage, skin biopsies, among others. Having grown up in Southwest Florida, he feels a particular call to work with the underserved of our area.
