Very professional staff. Not only did they take very good care of my husband during his surgery but also checked on me. Helped us with any questions and concerns with his disability claim.

GU Ohio represents Dr. Gibson’s next step in what has already been a very successful career. GU Ohio is Dr. Gibson’s first solo private practice in which he plans to use many of the lessons learned from a high-volume hospital employed practice as well as over a decade of experience to provide his patients with the highest quality of personalized care available. Dr. Gibson practices general urology, meaning he sees and manages all urologic conditions. Over his many years in practice, Dr. Gibson has developed and maintained close relationships with urologic colleagues, many of whom are considered regional and world experts in their areas of sub specialty within the field of urology. Should he feel that your condition be best treated at a larger medical center in partnership with any of these individuals, he and his staff have created seamless referral networks to provide you with a stress-free temporary transition of care. With that in mind, Dr. Gibson can confidently manage most urologic conditions presented to him so that you are able to have your care close to home with as minimal disruption to your life as possible.

Dr. Gibson is an avid Buckeye and Bengals fan, loves to exercise, play with his dogs, cook and try new and creative cuisines as well as spend time at his home reading, learning and listening to music. He has even been known to pick up his guitar from time to time. Most of all Dr. Gibson loves practicing medicine and urology. He has a palpable sense of gratitude for life, for the opportunities he has been afforded in the field of medicine and most of all for the patients of whom he has had the privilege to be a part of their care.

I started with Dr. Gibson and the urology department in 2017 and became a procedure nurse in 2018.Working side by side with Dr Gibson I very quickly learned and wanted to learn even more about urology. I became a procedure nurse in 2018 where I started assisting with high grade bladder cancers and it was an amazing feeling helping these patients treat their cancer all while maintaining a local atmosphere where there support system was, here in Zanesville. I am excited to rejoin Dr Benjamin Gibson and be a part of GU Ohio team and once again be a part of your urology team .
