"Dr. Ramsey K. Umar is an incredible physician. He knows my history, and he knows me. He takes a personal interest in me. He doesn’t have to go look on his computer through the entire visit looking up information about me. He spends time talking to me face-to-face. He tells me what tests I need to complete and why. Also, when I do complete a test, he calls me personally and tells me the results. I just hope he doesn’t get too busy because he has so many outstanding recommendations that he may fall into the trap that most doctors do. They spend more time looking at the computer than looking at the patient. I give Dr. Umar my highest recommendation. More doctors need to learn from him how to be a real caring and loving physician."

I trust and feel very comfortable discussing my health issues with Dr. Umar. I highly recommend him and his staff."
"I recently visited Dr Umar and although seemed very busy he took the time to really listen to my symptoms and try to make the best diagnosis. I’ve had burning sensation in my lower abdomen for a couple of months now and thought it was a UTI. I tried to treat it with several uti medications and nothing worked. My regular doctor recommended I see Dr Umar so i did and when I spoke to him about the symptoms I was having he recommended I take Prilosec because it sounded like acid indigestion problems. (I was a bit surprised as I had already taken other anti-acids.) He said that was stronger and believed my symptoms were associated to acid indigestion. Well so far so good I feel great. Thanks Dr Umar!"

"Great doctor! Always very knowledgeable and very friendly."
"Dr. Umar has been taking care of me for about 10 years. He is knowledgeable, honest and caring. I trust him to help me make the best decisions for managing my health.

He had his procedure yesterday and they made him feel so comfortable, knew what would scare him and he came out with a smile on his face."
"Doctor Umar is one of the most wonderful, caring, and kind-hearted Doctors I have ever met. I have been struggling with unsolved medical problems my entire life, and about 9 months ago I couldn't eat, lost almost 40 pounds and I really didn't have 40 pounds to lose, and almost gave up hope on figuring out what was wrong and thought I was a psycho, and he went above and beyond what any doctor I have seen since this started, and made sure he figured out what was wrong with me. Now I am going to have surgery to no longer have problems. I am beyond thankful for him and his staff has been nothing but kind and caring during each appointment, phone call, and have made sure I was just at least okay. I would recommend him 20/10 to anyone."
"I am no spring chicken and have been treated by several GI doctors in the past. Out of all of them I have never had a doctor that was so knowledgeable and caring as Dr Umar. He is an excellent physician and I would recommend him to my family members or anyone else I know!!!"
"Dr Umar is seeing me for multiple ailments and is always ready to answer questions with the latest information at appointments. He is constantly updating me and has no problems treating me and my wife as people rather than a case study. Additionally Troy Dr Umar's Medical Assistant is second to none.

All staff I encountered were professional, helpful and friendly."
"Wow! Dr. Umar was great! I was so scared about having a colonoscopy until I confered with him...he set my mind at ease and answered all my questions, even about the endoscopy to check on my constant heartburn! Then it was all over so quickly (well, I did sleep thru the whole procedure, thank you, God!), and I went home feeling so comfortable about the whole thing that I am now bugging my husband to have a colonoscopy, too! The staff was also so reassuring. 5 stars to this facility and to Dr. Umar, my new hero!"
