"Dr. Dennert is the most understanding doctor that i have had. She listens carefully and together we are managing my Crohn's disease. The office staff and medical assistant Blanca are very kind and also mindful of people's time. I've been to some doctors where they had me waiting in the front office and exam room for over an hour! Not at Arizona Digestive Health!!! I'm so grateful to have found such a caring and compassionate doctor to help me manage my condition."
"Dr Patel is wonderful! Helped me control my colitis that the hospital did not do. Was willing to provide service to me in Ca till I find a new GI Dr. I appreciate his service!"
"Best around! He has been the ONLY doctor to help manage my gastroparesis. I met him at my lowest and he has helped me to be at my highest. Eternally grateful for that man."
"Dr. Gulinson is great! I’ve had 2 procedures (colonoscopies) performed by him and his team. I will be having my third in July. I have every confidence that it will go as well as the others. Dr. Gulinson’s office staff are kind and efficient—no long waits either. The doctor explains what will happen during the procedure and what he does if polyps are found. He answers questions and puts me at ease. The prep is easy and much better than friends have experienced elsewhere. You drink a tasteless laxative with a clear drink of your choice. Not a fun time but necessary since my family has a history of colon cancer. Dr. Gulinson has a calm, kind bedside manner. I highly recommend him as does my PCP. 👍"
"This will be my procedure with Dr. Meline. I was extremely satisfied with the procedure, the professionalism, and the care provided by his staff and himself back in 2019. I am having another procedure next week and he thoroughly explained all that was done prior, the risks involved, the steps we are taking to ensure that I am able to keep my colon cancer free. While the day before is not fun, the juice is worth the squeeze. And remember, you can have your colon colonoscopy checked at age 45, not 50 like the insurance companies like to preach. Vic Houze Jr"
"Ramkrishna R. Kothur is a gastroenterologist in Sun City, Arizona and is affiliated with multiple hospitals in the area, including Banner Thunderbird Medical. Dr. Kothur has over 20-years experience in the gastrointestinal field, and one of the things that I really liked about him and his practice, is while he is able to perform procedures in Banner Thunderbird Hospital, he is also able to perform straightforward procedures like my colonoscopy in the surgery and recovery rooms within their offices… I highly recommend him to anyone that is looking for a great gastrointestinal doctor 👨⚕️ to provide relief from digestive disorders, such as stomach pain, ulcers, reflux, constipation and Crohn's disease."
"I recently had a procedure done in May, it went very well. The staff were great, very attentive and caring. They made me feel at ease. My daughter was very pleased with Dr. Lam. She had asked me , “Why do you have a Dr. So far from home?” After she met Dr Lam, she says I can see why you picked her, she is very good and caring. I like the way she listens and explains things. Dr. Lam has been very understanding. She also has a very kind disposition."
"Dr. David is very thorough and takes the needed time to understand what is going on with the patient. I have been very happy with all my appointments with him. His assistant Ashley has been very responsive and helpful when I needed help or information."
"I have been taking my special needs son to Dr. Umar for a year and a half now. We have a family history of colon cancer so my son needed a colonoscopy at only 20 years old and Dr. Umar agreed and made it happen with insurance coverage. Then my son started having GI problems a year later likely due to EDS and Dr. Umar's MA got him in quickly specifically to Dr. Umar. He is all about patient comfort and what is realistic for the patient, down to earth, no ego (but is phenomenal), genuinely cares, no long waits, explains everything. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone!"
"I had a great experience from start to finish . Staff was friendly, nurses and anesthesiologists were informative, aftercare was great. I even received a follow up call. Thank you"
"Dr Atia is very patient and understanding. She takes time out of her busy schedule to see her patients and helps them with all she can. I have a stubborn body that has gone through 2 types of treatments already. Nothing has worked so far. Dr Atia is very determined to help me and hopefully my new medication works. Hopefully 3rd times the charm"
"Dr. Ahmed is personable, patient and kind. He made plenty of space for (and encouraged) me to ask questions, he listened intently and made me feel heard, seen and comfortable. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a local gastroenterologist. Seeing a new specialist is scary, but he built rapport quickly and I left feeling confident that he's going to be a great addition to my medical care team."
"I highly recommend this location! Everyone was so nice! Dr. Mann listened, investigated and diagnosed my problem. I had been suffering for over 2 yrs, had a surgery that probably wasn't necessary, and still had the same symptoms. He figured it out! I am so grateful!"
"Dr Mills has an excellent bedside manner and made feel feel very comfortable as a first time colonoscopy patient. Staff is also super friendly. Top notch treatment - highly recommend!"
"From the time I walked in to the office I was greeted immediately and very nicely I might add. They were a very well oiled machine in this office. I feel comfortable and felt like the people cared. That says a lot!"
"Dr Kothur is empathetic and relates well with his patients. After researching my condition online, I wish he had recommended the changes in diet that hopefully will help my problems. That information suggested eliminating acidic foods which hopefully will help my acid reflux and not rely solely on anti acids."
"I was a mess and they took very good care of me. From start to finish the procedure process went so smoothly! Better than most doctors visits in my past! Great staff and very organized caring experience. Thank you"
"I am very happy to have found Dr. Seetheram. I have been struggling with digestive issues for a long time. I hopped on a virtual call to speak to the doctor, which was convenient. He was interested in what I had to say and asked questions about the issue. I feel like he genuinely is trying to help find the cause of the problem along with getting the tests set up promptly. I would highly recommend to see him if you are having issues."
"Didn't think I needed an introduction appointment, but it was well worth it. I felt like he spent enough time with me and went over all aspects of the procedure that we would be doing."
"Dr. Drewitz and his staff have always provided the best care. He took his time and answered all my questions. I have recommended him to several friends."
"Dr. Ratuapli makes everything very easy to understand and listens to all of your concerns and questions. He will take his time with you and make sure you get all of your questions answered and needs met. Highly recommend him."
"Very friendly and personable. Dr. Schwart educated me on how the colon works and the colonoscopy process during my consultation. My coloniscopy was scheduled immediately after. I will give an update after the colonoscopy"
"It’s truly my 1st experience ever, as long as you follow the steps , pay close attention to what you’re supposed to do , YOU CAN insure a safe and speedy colonoscopy , with it being my 1st, Dr.V was very warm and compassionate, introduced himself as the chief physician who will be performing the procedure, explained everything clearly and his staff so gentle, walked me through the process completely, Afterwards, , Dr.V came to check on me post-op asked if I had any questions and just a nice human being over all. Granted , I was very scared out of my mind , not knowing what to expect; absolutely terrified , although colon cancer doesn’t run in our family… but there is always a first. I am glad to say , I don’t have to come back in another 10 yrs, but they encouraged me to take healthy steps for the next go around. And to think , when I was little , I thought Diverticulosis was a form of swimming style , I was 9yrs old at the time ,don’t judge me - lol Indeed made Dr. V laugh, Rest assured you will be in the best of hands coming here 🙏🏽 Cheers to Dr. V and to incorporating a high fiber diet"
"Good doctor any helping me with my acid reflux I've been suffering from and have finally realized how bad it was this year yes Dr Foley is a good doctor"
"Dr. Adam Randolph is the best Gastrointestinal doctor. He provides great medical care base on your needs because he listens to your complaints and works on oroviding the best possible solutions. Great bedside manner, very polite and courteous. All the office personnel is the same. Great atmosphere in the office and the Endoscopic center. Love that fact that they are side by side in the same building. It doesn't get any better than that, very convenient. Love Dr. RANDOLPH"
"I was referred to Dr. Umar for a 2nd opinion, as I wanted another perspective regarding my ulcerative colitis treatment. Dr. Umar quickly got my UC under control and ensured that his staff touched bases with me regularly to keep my UC in remission. His instructions are always clear, and the team around him that assists his patients are top notch. I even referred my wife to him and she is also very pleased!"
"Dr Ratuapli is GREAT! He has a unique ability to put you at ease with a complicated procedure. After failing to successfully rid my body of C.Diff more than 4 times I am ready for success in his hands. Thank YOU Dr Ratuapli."
"Thank you very much! Everyone is so friendly and I am very thankful you are in this area to care for me when i need you. Your hours you are available are wonderful. The Doctors, nurses & staff are professional and very thorough.”"
"I would honestly have rated this experience a 5 except that the scheduler assured me that if I arrived at my check in time I would be seen at my appointment time and out in 30 - 40 minutes. This was simply not the case. I waited for 75 minutes after my check-in time for about. 10-15 minute visit. Thankfully I really liked Dr Gulinson and his manner overall."
"Dr. Patel has been professional, patient, courteous and is very knowledgeable in his field. I would recommend him and his office for any experiencing Digestive issues."
"Dr Randolph is amazing. He listen to you and put great thought in helping you. He really care. He has helped me with my Pancreatitis issue and he is handling my Barretts pre throat cancer. I trust him and I don't do that likely. I keep referring my friends to him"
"These people are extremely nice , I was worried and they were very comforting, explained all that they needed to do . I would have everyone who needs a gastrointestinal dr. To go to Dr. Vulcano. He is truly awesome."
"I have been Dr. Meline's patient for 20 years now. I have had several colonoscopies and endoscopies due to some health issues that needed to be monitored and followed up over the years. He has been committed to his profession and since our last communication he has performed over 50,000 colonoscopies and endoscopies. He is a doctor that you can trust and exhibits honesty and integrity."
"The doctor explained everything to us and told us that there was different ways to treat my husband. He was very aggressive in getting it taken care of. they worked with us to get his appointments moved up. staff is very nice. they made sure he was comfortable before and after his test."
"This is my second time visiting this wonderful team and I can honestly say, they are on top of their game! I work in the medical field and everyone from the Doctor to the nurses to the front desk and medical assistants, they are 100% phenomenal in what they do. Dr Chokshi is the BEST! I do not want to go anywhere else for a colonoscopy. I’ve had two now, with Dr Chokshi, and both times the experience was very pleasant. I know that sounds crazy for a colonoscopy, but it’s true! If you ever need a colonoscopy and worried about the experience, you need to come here, it’s a piece of cake. And I will be bringing my husband back in 3 months. I highly recommend Dr Chokshi and his team!"
"To date I have only registered and interviewed for two procedures scheduled for early February. This process was very smooth and professional, as were my several previous interactions (about 20 years) with Dr Yalam and his staff. Specifically he is combining the colonoscopy and EGD which is superior for the patient!"
"Dr Wadas is an excellent physician. He listens very well, takes his time to diagnose your illness or concerns and to provide answers to patient’s questions. He also gave me treatment recommendation for my condition."
"I had gone to see Dr. Stein in 2013. While I didn't see him on my last visit, the gentleman who got all my information and the woman, who scheduled me for my January 2023 appointment were both wonderfully professional. They answered all my questions in a simple and easy-to-understand explanation. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing Dr. Stein in a week!"
"I have had many doctors in my life, but I have to say that my current team of physicians is the best by far. After suffering 12 with a debilitating illness, neither the Mayo Clinic nor NHI were able to accurately diagnose me. Dr. Wadas finally figured out what was wrong and I have been on the road to recovery this past year. I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Wadas. He’s extremely intelligent, very attentive, his bedside manner is incredible, and he is super nice guy. I give him my highest recommendation."
"Dr. Drewitz really is one of the best in the medical industry. He shows compassion and really cares about your questions and concerns. I have been going to him for several years now from endoscopies to colonoscopies, you feel confident knowing he’s your doctor. A+ to his entire staff too."
"When in for an endoscopy. Maria my pre-proceedure nurse was absolutely fantastic(didnt even know/feel she started the IV). Brian( anesthetist) was very kind. Dr. Walker was outstanding, through and explained everything. Samantha (post-proceedure nurse) provided excellent care with outstanding professionalism. This team knows their stuff."
"Quick appointments are hard to get when you are a new patient. Dr. Patel and his team were all great and went way above my expectations getting me in quicker than I could imagine."
"My husband was seen by Dr Rataupli and was very satisfied with his visit; Dr Rataupli was very thorough in his exam, he took his time to explain everything in easy understandable terms. Felt Dr Rataupli was very intelligent and nice demeanor."
"Very good experience. From the schedulers, office staff, nurses and doctor I had a very positive experience. I would recommend to any and all of my family and friends."
"Dr Hutchinson and his staff are so friendly, knowledgeable and make you feel at ease. I’ve had two procedures there and I never felt so taken care of. Thank you so much for caring for me."
"Super experience with Dr Kavathia and his staff. He really is very caring individual, explaining medical issues, the treatment process and sharing post procedure results. Truly impressed and extremely happy for what Dr Kavathia did for me. I Strongly recommend him ."
