Professor Gonzalez is an excellent teacher!!! He teaches a pretty difficult class but makes it easy to understand. He is also always willing to help. I loved this class! :)
Prof. Gonzalez is one of the youngest, smartest, hottest, and kindest prof. in the nursing department. He's so sweet and really loves to teach. pharmacology is a hard class, but he finds a way to make it easy. He truly goes out of his way for his students and gives the best study guide!!! By far one of the best teachers I've ever had. Love him!!!
This prof. is absolutely amazing! It was my fav. class the 1st semester of nursing. His tests are true to his powerpoints and he prepares well for the HESI. I recommend him 100%. Also I was blown away by his intelligence. He never had to use the book to know his meds. One more fact: HES SUPER HOT!
Great professor! Very animated, with a dry, witty sense of humor. Great job explaining concepts so that they are easy to understand. 100% of the content on the exam or quizzes will be something he has mentioned in lecture so pay attention. It is not necessary to read the book, I got an A in the class without it.
Professor Gonzalez is extremely intelligent!! He is a great teacher and knows the most up to date information in Pharm. He truly cares about his students and it is important to him that you understand the material. He is very clear and detailed in his teaching. Lastly, he is way smarter than the textbook.One of the best instructors I had thus far!
Great instructor!!!
Amazing teacher! Great professor to have teaching the first semester of nursing school!! He is so knowledgeable in all aspects of nursing. Hes incredibly approachable and will go out of his way to make sure you understand the material. Its always great to have a teacher that yow know genuinely cares!
He is one of the best teachers I have had! Super intelligent and hilarious plus he genuinely wants his students to do well.
Juancho is an amazing professor. Genuinely cares about his students and gives you the tools to be successful. Thoroughly explains pharm as an integral component of nursing practice. The best professor in the school of nursing by far: very motivating and inspiring.
My favorite professor in all 4 years at UM. Crazy intelligent, SO kind, caring and genuine. Truly such an inspiring teacher.
A-MAZING! Best teacher @ SONHS, he's very caring and is extremely knowledgable in everything he teaches, he cares that you pass & understand the material. Very helpful & will go out of his way to make sure you understand the concept, even if it takes him 20x to explain it to you, you will eventually get it! BEST TEACHER EVER!
Best professor ever!!! He is kind, smart and always very prepared for class. He was very knowledgeable in all aspects of nursing and was never arrogant about it. Had him as a professor in pharmacology and Role transition and could not have asked for a better teacher. A true inspiration and role model to all the students. Thank you Dr. Gonzalez!
Great professor!!! Would love to have other classes with him.
Best professor at UM. He clearly wants you to succeed. This subject is very tough but he will explain it so well that it will be crystal clear. He's always available to help you with whatever you need. He goes out of his way for his students and believes in them, which I find is very important in a professor. Oh, and he is a BRAIN, seriously just tells you the entire lecture without looking at his 100 slide powerpoints. The U should have more professors like this.
Where can I start, Dr. Gonzalez is an AMAZINNGGGGGGGGGGG professor. He's so smart everything he explains is crystal clear. Study his powerpoints (everything) and go to class you can definitely pass his class. He prepares you really good for the HESI as well. Oh and he's hot so that's a plus you'll definitely be paying attention the whole time ;)
Dr. Gonzalez is by-far one of the most influential professors at the SONHS, he's smart and obviously passionate in teaching. He's willing to meet if you're having trouble understanding and he cares for his students progress. The class is hard but accomplish-able with dedication & the support of Dr. Gonzalez. Again, best professor!
Great professor! Truly cares about his students. The class is really difficult but if you study hard and read the book you will obtain a good grade. He is very smart and will answer all your questions. Truly a brain, walking encyclopedia and he is supper Hot which is a plus!
Simply the best. Loved his lectures. The best professor I have ever had
Great professor with most up to date information. This professor is legit and willing to explain things until understood by the class. Would highly recommend him to other students. Best class at the U school of Nursing!
Very tough class but the professor is there for you. Really enjoyed learning from Dr. Gonzalez and will love to take another class with him in the future. Best professor in the college of nursing. Really cares about the students and takes the time to explain difficult concepts. A true inspiration to nursing students!
Great professor and provides great support to students. Very tough class, be ready to read the book and study your butt off! Thank you for everything Dr. Gonzalez
Great professor! loved his lectures and hope to have his class again.
Ahhhmazing!! Great teacher and clinician. Gives great examples and demonstrate knowledge about the information. Truly an inspiration.
Great professor. My favorite class in all my years as a student at the U. Ah-mazing lectures, funny, smart and inspirational professor. Very easy on the yes too!
The guy is a walking encyclopedia. Truly the best professor I have ever had. Thank you!
love him as a professor, so intelligent and knows how to teach.
I loved Juan. He is amazing. Despite the HESI being hard this year, I still felt that we learned what we could from Juan and he prepared us to the best of his ability.
He is so ahhhhhh-mazing smart funny and good looking, Walking encyclopedia, anything you can ask this teacher he can answer, Best professor I have ever had thus far!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Best teacher at the University of miami. Everyone take him if you want to learn.
He is incredibly intelligent. Knows the material inside and out and teaches it exceptionally well. Not to mention he's so adorable. He's Ah-Mazing!! Pay attention, take notes, read, and you'll do very well!
Ahh-mazing lectures. He is truly the best professor at the U. Learned a lot from him and hope I can take every class with him. Very easy on the eyes too!
Ah-mazing professor. He is willing to go above and beyond for the students and is really pationate about the NP profession. Truly inspirational and crazy intelligent. Loved his class!
dr. G is awesome! but beware if you're in the full time program! He puts stuff on exams that you haven't been tested on yet from your other classes. its a disadvantage to full-timers, but if you're part time- he's perfect! You WILL learn A LOT in his class. record the lectures and re listen to them too! it will help you study! I love Dr. G!
Amazing lectures and professor. This nurse practitioner faculty is so knowledgeable and inspirational. I can only hope to be like him. Truly cares about his students and goes the extra mile to make sure you are learning. A walking encyclopedia. Take his class if you want to learn from the best.
Great professor, clinically relevant and maintains job at bedside as an APRN--not just a professor. Extremely knowledgeable and approachable.
The best professor at the university!This faculty is truly committed to the success of the students and the profession of nursing. Every class is truly amazing and full of up to date information. Knows the content so well.I wish every class I took in my program was with Dr Gonzalez. Take him if you want to learn and be the best nurse practitioner.
I don't understand why Dr. Gonzalez has so many good reviews? Maybe it was because he used to teach at the graduate level, but at the undergraduate level it is TOO MUCH. He spews information out for hours, during and after class, and then tells you to "know everything." His guides are just the same information spewed, but condensed, and do not help
Dr. Gonzalez was Ah-mazing, one of the only professors this semester who seems to actually care that his students graduate to become good astute nurses. This class is definitely no joke, but neither is taking care of people. He makes the material more easily understandable and applicable. I wish he could teach all my courses.
Dr. Gonzalez is an amazing professor and he is one to truly represent the high quality standards of UM. He is passionate about what he does, he wants nothing but the best for his students, and is never one bit degrading when asking for help. This class is not easy and you need to put in the work to pass and to do well. I recommend this professor!
Hands down he is the best professor, I had so much more to say but they only allow so many characters: -Go to class, in person, it is well worth it -Ask questions, you dont want to miss the low hanging fruit -Get more out of lectures than just the meat and potatoes -You CAN, C-A-N, without the accent do this, but the effort needs to be on you
Dr. G is a great, challenging professor. He genuinely cares about his students. Attend lectures and any reviews he has. This is a difficult course but not impossible if you put in the work.
Dr. Gonzalez is an amazing professor. He is very knowledgeable and shows genuine care and interest in his students' progress and overall success. He is professional and his lectures are clear and easy to understand. Dr. Gonzalez explains the material very well and is inspirational to future nurses. He is available to meet and discuss exams too.
Dr. Gonzalez is an amazing lecturer and he is an absolute expert in nursing. The class requires dedication and hard work because it is an extremely vital class. However, Dr. Gonzalez affords all of his students the opportunities to succeed and always makes time to assist his students.
Dr. Gonzalez is so impressive with respect to his incredible knowledge and an utmost commitment to the learning of his students. His experience teaching mainly at the grad (NP) level showed as he taught my accelerated nursing med surg course; he challenged us (more than other professors) to think critically as future nurses, which is so important!
Dr. Gonzalez is one of the best professors Ive ever had. While his class attendance isnt mandatory (this is also during COVID), you will not do well if you dont pay attention. He gives you everything you need and always reviews a lot of situations where he applies the material to his experiences. Hes so kind and caring and overall awesome!
Dr. Gonzalez is an excellent professor. Listen to his lectures carefully, and you are guaranteed to pass his class. If you don't understand the material, do not be afraid to ask him. He will take the time to go into detail and make sure you know the material. I wish I had him every semester.
Dr. Gonzalez is one of the best professors I had at the University of Miami. Not only is he funny, but also his lectures are outstanding. He gives a lot of information, but he makes sure to deliver the information straightforwardly.
Dr. Gonzalez is amazing. He's smart and he teaches the class as if you are too, so if you have questions, either stop him during class and ask (he loves engagement) or set up a time. He wants you to understand, not just too regurgitate. And that's how he teaches. He doesn't just read notes, he know his stuff! I love this man! What an inspiration!!
Dr. Gonzalez is the epitome of what all nursing professors should be. He is dedicated, motivated, and always pushes his nursing students to reach their highest potential. His class is not a walk in the park by any means and you must work hard and study routinely, but he truly prepares you to enter the nursing profession. Thank you Dr. Gonzalez!
I vividly remember starting his class feeling very unprepared for my future career in nursing, however this class truly whipped me into shape. While the supplemental PowerPoint recordings and extensive amount of information given in class was overwhelming at times, I feel I can wholeheartedly contribute my success on the Exit HESI and NCLEX.
Dr. Gonzalez is an AMAZING professor who truly cares about his students and motivates them tremendously. I wish he taught every class!!
Dr. Gonzalez is the absolute BEST professor I have ever had. Every time I would go to class, I was more and more amazed by how much he knows, and how well he teaches. The dedication and passion that Dr. Gonzalez gives to the material and to his students is insurmountable. Pharmacology is a tough subject in itself, but he makes it possible succeed!
Pharmacology really intimidated me in the beginning, yet now I am sad it is over. This is due to the professor. He is not only a good professor, but a good and genuine person. He cares so much about his students. His zest for life and teaching radiates. He has so much knowledge and it was a great opportunity to be his student.
So far the best class I have taken during my ABSN program. You will do well if you take time to get familiar with the study guides. Dr. Gonzalez explains concepts really well, and his class is very engaging and informative. He truly cares about his students. I hope have the opportunity to take other classes he teaches in the program.
you can tell he cares about his students. he is respected by almost the entire student body, which says a lot about him not just as a person but as a mentor and educator. go to class in person and become the astute nurse from university of miami that he wants you to be
Dr. Gonzalez is the best teacher I have ever had in all of the years I have been in school. He is an amazing teacher, gives his students his all, and pushes them to their fullest potential. HIGHLY recommend
Dr. Gonzalez is definitely my favorite teacher at the University of Miami. His kindness and passion for his career truly shows. He knows how to make the class fun and engaging, even with being a very difficult class. I'm so happy I had him for both pharm and this course, he is truly shaping the future of nurses. Thank you for making such an impact!
Dedicated to nursing. Dedicated to students sometimes.
I have had Dr. Gonzalez for 2 semesters now, and he is still the absolute BEST professor I have ever had. He knows absolutely everything. He cares about his students and does everything possible for us to succeed. He held many review sessions after class hours just to reinforce our learning. I dont know of any other prof who has done that. 1000/10
The best professor in the nursing school! I had him for two semesters and you're LUCKY if you get a class with him. My cohort is so bummed that we don't have him next semester. The class is NOT easy, but you learn a lot and he WANTS you to succeed and be GREAT. He's that professor that you won't forget. Thank you for everything Dr. Gonzalez!!
Ah-mazing more like Ah-no. Its a shame bc the reviews seemed good. But I dont think he lives up to the hype tbh.
Ok at best. Hes smart but not my style I guess.
My clinical professor for maternity had Dr. Gonzalez before and asked if he was still holding up the entire nursing program. Hes been so good for many years. Hes funny, engaging, respectful, constructive, empathetic, and knowledgeable. Hes the best teacher youll have in the nursing program.
Great Professor! Truly one of the best professors in the UM nursing school. Cares about his students and will try his best to help you succeed. Lectures are imperative to attend. He is amazing!
Dr. Gonzalez is truly the best professor I have ever had. Instead of reading from the slides, he thoroughly explains each concept and makes sure it makes sense. He wants you to learn. He makes himself available outside of the classroom for review sessions if students express confusion regarding any topic at all. He is so caring. Highly recommend!!!
Pharm is a hard subject but he makes it as easy as it can be. Super handsome so you'll want to pay attention no matter what. Exams were fair but content goes in depth. Studied the most for this class than others, but still succeeded. Online assignments about biweekly and 3 exams plus a HESI. Study a lot for the final.
He is truly the best teacher I have ever had. I would take him for every single class if I could.
Lots of hype, kind of disappointed. He was ok.
Dr. Gonzalez is amazing! I had him for Adult Health III and I feel like I learned everything I didn't in I and II put together. Don't trust the negative comments, it is from someone who did not care. I went to class and before every exam I MADE SURE I listened to every recording. He truly cares and is passionate. It's in your hands, put the effort.
Dr. Gonzalez has been one of the best professors I have had up to date. He is willing to go the extra mile to help his students solidify concepts and actually learn the material. Your performance in the course itself ultimately comes down to your effort and work ethic. Can confidently say Dr. Gonzalez prepares you to be an astute student nurse.
Dr Gonzalez is the most thoughtful and educational professor I have had in my life. He is very intelligent and can help you understand on a deeper level any topic that you may be struggling with. He is always available to help students and truly truly wants the best from them. I hope to always have him as a resource and friend in the future.
Dr. Gonzalez is passionate about nursing and gives the type of lectures you look forward to attending. You will have to study and take good notes, but his exams are very fair and the knowledge that I gained from him has been very helpful in clinical. He is one of the most caring and amazing professors out there. Take classes with him if you can!
Dr. Gonzalez genuinely wants his students to be the best they can and succeed in any field of nursing. Attendance is not mandatory but I RECOMMEND attending lecture because he teaches you everything you need to know for the exam and more! Any chance you get to have him as a professor, take it. He will prepare you to be the best and critically think
Dr. Gonzalez knows his stuff but is a bit much. Some find it helpful I am sure but some also find it somewhat irritating.
To put it simply - Dr. Gonzalez is one of the best professors you'll ever have. He is knowledgable and engaging. He teaches you things that are real and useful while keeping in mind the fact that your overall goal is to pass the NCLEX.
Pharmacology was the hardest class for me & I don't think I would have done well if anybody but Gonzalez was teaching. This guy is amazing when he covers lectures for other teacher's I've had too. The way he teaches makes difficult material really clear & comes up with ways to help you remember. 10/10 would recommend. Wish he taught all my classes
I took NUR307 (Pharmacology) with Professor Gonzalez this spring and it was my favorite class! His lectures will keep you engaged and he gives great study guides for his exams. This class was challenging but the professor sets you up for success. He cares about his students and wants everyone to succeed. I would 100% recommend Professor Gonzalez!!
I took professor Gonzalez for pharmacology and honestly he is the best professor I have had at UM. Pharm is a tough class no matter what but he is the nicest most supportive professor. He is always available to meet if you ever need. He makes good study guides for his exam so as long as you study that you will do fine. Hes the best
A true king!! He's accessible outside of class & has a very fair & reasonable test grading style. Truely cares about his students & our future. Uses games, Iclicker, completion assignments, & many practice exams for the HESI to help with content. Definitely fill out his study guides!! & really know how & when to use these meds. Records lecture! :)
I LOVE DR G. He is by far one of the best professors I have had in all the college classes I have taken, 110% recommend!! Makes you want to go to classes and learn, makes learning fun and what he puts on the exams are fair, he gives you STUDY GUIDES USE THEM GOOD LUCK
I took NUR 612-50 advanced Patho with Dr. Gonzalez and he is something else! He's very funny and makes the material interesting, although the material is heavy. He highlights important concepts in his lectures. He also cares for the well being of his students. 10/10 would recommend.

Best professor I've ever had. He is what the Gold Standard for nursing professors should be, or even professors in general. Reasonable, educational, practical, intelligent, fun, applicable towards nursing. Explains everything off the top of his head accurately and comprehensively. Truly the best. Amazing professor, can't say enough good things.
THE BEST PROFESSOR EVER! He truly cares about his students and encourages you to do better. I looked forward going to his class every week. Pharmacology is not an easy class because its so much content but the way he teaches I promise makes a HUGE difference. Biggest advice is to pay attention and go to class every week. 10/10
Dr. Gonzalez is one of my favorite teachers He made my transition into the ABSN program so much easier he is truly a gem. He lets you know exactly what will be on the exam and all of his study guides are very useful and clear. He is very kind and such a great professor and always keeps his students engaged during lecture 10/10 recommend, AMAZING
I had Dr. Gonzalez for ABSN Pharmacology, and he truly cared about all of his students. He would pray before exams for students to pass and get good grades. He is very willing to sacrifice his time to help his students succeed. Especially with ABSN being so hard/fast-paced he was so motivational.
Could've studied more but I didn't.. he's more than a professor he's a leader and such an insipiration! Will def recommend!!
Dr. Gonzalez is the absolute best lecturer in the NP program. I loved how he taught pathophysiology and explained everything so clearly. He is smart, caring and very handsome. He really cares for students. His exams were extremely easy and his class is probably the easiest class in the whole program. We need more educators like him.
Dr. Gonzalez is an amazing professor! He truly prepares you for success and teaches in a way that makes everything stick. He emphasizes what's most important, is available outside of class hours, and genuinely wants all his students to succeed! He puts in extra time and effort to ensure the success of all students. He is also very accommodating!
He cares, and that alone makes him the best. He wants you to succeed more than you do. Show him you care and he will lead you to success.
Dr. Gonzalez is amazing mentor!! He ensures a supportive learning environment and is motivating throughout the semester. Dr. Gonzalez truly prepares his students for success. His teaching goes beyond passing exams, he focuses on building knowledge and confidence needed for the longevity of our nursing careers. We need more mentors like him!
Dr.Gonzalez is genuinely one of the best professors i've ever had. You can tell he cares about his students and wants you to not only succeed in his class but in your nursing career! you will learn a lot from him! 10/10 recommend, show up to lectures and actively listen and you will do great!
Dr. Gonzalez was truly one of the best professors I've ever had. AH3 is a tough class but he makes sure to explain it in a way that is clear and easy to understand. Out of all my professors I feel that he was one I learned the most from. No matter how you're doing in class he is ready to cheer you on and make sure you succeed
