"Dr Gerling wrote a 2 page report after a second visit with him. On the first visit he stated I was permanently and totally disabled. Two years later after stating the same thing to me and refusing the records I brought he told me in less than 10 minutes I could go and he was sorry I had to come all that way. He also stated he was reporting the same thing. He lied, he did no such thing. He wrote a report about my suggested symptoms and there was nothing wrong with me and now my Workers comp is being terminated. A two page report that he stated he examined me. He didn’t explain the miraculous recovery between our two meetings but I sure would love to know how it occurred. He also never examined me. Do not go this this man. He may have some sort of disorder as he never makes eye contact. "

"I had an ischemic Thalamic stroke in August. If you're looking for a neurologist (or a STROKE SPECIALIST as Gerling prefers to call himself) I HIGHLY recommend looking elsewhere! ______________________________ I scheduled an appt with Dr. GERLING 04Oct. Since I have no history of stroke- i wasn't sure what to expect and honestly I am terrified. I needed a followup to speak with a physician after getting out of the hospital. I had (still do) so many questions/concerns especially after being referred from NAS Jax. My husband came with me to this appt (which I am so grateful!) We arrived on time for my 10:30am appt, but the address listed for this Orange Park office on is completely incorrect. We called to inquire where they were located, they told us "Oh, we moved 10 years ago"--THAT should've been a red flag! BTW--photo of his office on Google has NOT been updated and the photo of Dr. Gerling is at least 30 years old--keep that in mind! At his office, filled out paperwork & ushered ...
to a room to an 80yo+ man seated in a computer chair--that was my introduction to Dr. GERARD GERLING.(Yes he graduated from medical school in 1966!) GERLING asked why I was there, i tried to explain and that was the last full question he let me answer rudely interupting every time I'd speak, never allowing me to finish/ask questions. I tried explaining exactly what happened during/after my stroke & It wasn't adequate for Dr. GERLING. Because of my stroke, I struggle with words and thoughts & yes, I am more sensitive, so yes, I cried. GERLING accused me of being over emotional & "wasting 30 mins of his precious time" when in fact our entire appt wasnt even 30 mins! .Dr. Gerling then threatened us three times with throwing us out, stating "MY OFFICE, MY RULES!" He even accused me of filming him (in hindsight i wish I had!) Dr. Gerling is paranoid about being "set up'/held liable--Example, my pain management doctor I see sent paperwork & wanted my neurologist to fill it out in regards to whether or not my recent stroke would effect my ability to receive a genicular nerve block for my knee--as acourtesy and a professional opinion. This set Dr. Gerling OFF! He was irate & yelling, stating that he would NOT fill out any paperwork for me because *they*,were trying to make him liable/responsible & refuses to sign ANYTHING. When I tried to ask more questions he interrupted (again) and told me "YOU WONT GET ME TO CHANGE MY MIND!". (At this point I am afraid of saying anything that would set him off) Gerling asked about medical records, I said they were online (I assumed he had seen them because afterall, he had a printed letter from my pain management. Again this set Gerling off he went on his *MY OFFICE...* rant. Gerling asked about my health history in regards to cancer, i said I had melanoma 3 times & he had the audacity to suggest I did not because I wasn't treated by an oncologist The kicker? GERLING even said that i did NOT have a stroke, suggesting that because I was in the hospital for less than two days it did not meet HIS criteria for a stroke despite CTs, MRIs and a vast array of tests & Physicians as well as left eye sight loss all confirming I did. He did a quick neurological assessment, never washing his hands before touching me. I told him he could NOT touch my right arm during the exam because of CRPS,(formerly RSD) he then ranted that he was a PAIN MEDICINE DOCTOR (but..I was seeing a NEUROLOGIST or as Gerling shouted at me several times STROKE SPECIALIST) it was clear he had NO clue what CRPS/rsd was. He definitely is on a power trip. He is too old to be practicing any type of medicine, especially neurology. He is extremely unprofessional and rude. ZERO bedside manners. I have since filed a complaint against him with my insurance company and I am once again on the hunt for a knowledgeable and professional neurologist who cares about his patients. "
