Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Positive Experience
The Doctor and his staff were very professional and kind. I was very nervous, yet everyone from checking-in to the prep before the procedure to leaving was relaxing and calm. I would definitely recommend their practice.

No reason to worry
I went for my first colonoscopy and was quite nervous about it not really knowing what to expect. Everyone was so kind and reassuring and in the end (no pun intended) the only horrible part was drinking the prep drink. I was out before I knew it and woke up without pain or complications.

Great Doc, listened to my concerns and took action
Great doc. I was scheduled for only a colonoscopy but needed a EGD as well which was scheduled at a later date. The office personal told me they could not go concurrent, an insurance issue. The Doc took the time to stop me rolling to the OR and had the office call the insurance. Got it approved and they wheeled me back. They were having an issue getting the additional procedure added to health record. He held the OR up for 15 minutes to ensure I could have both done that day. He could have just done the colonoscopy and been done in the time that he held the room. Says a lot. Will be my primary GI doc forsake.

I felt like I was in a turn & burn facility
I did not like that I had to fill out pages of paperwork when I had not slept the night before due to the pre-op. I was dead tired and the place just felt like it was a turn and burn facility. I had to wait 3 months for the procedure even though I tested positive. The scheduling was a nightmare. Will not go back to this facility.

The staff was very friendly and informative. This was my first time so naturally I was so nervous but the experience wasn’t so bad. I of course disliked the prep before going to your office.

Paperwork could be sent ahead
I believe Dr Esmaili did a good colonoscopy. One change I would recommend is to send patients paperwork (6 pages with detailed medical information) ahead of time so patients don’t have to fill it out right before a surgical procedure (especially with a colonoscopy- I hadn’t eaten in two days and could barely think clearly enough to answer the questions). The paperwork was very stressful right before anesthesia.

Welcomed from the time I got there and felt good about every person I met. Thank you for making my visit enjoyable (as it could be). Going through procedures is never fun or something people want to do. Knowing that you and your staff did a fabulous job of making people at ease. Well done
