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.

Dr. Kutner helped me with my crohns disease from 1989 to 2005. He wasnt just my doctor but felt like a friend. He was always generally concerned about my mental and physical well being, whether it was my ileostomy surgery , my sepsis issues , or the loss of my husband. Hi Dr. Kutner, I hope you and Dr. McConnell are doing well. Next time I'm in NJ I'll stop by.??

I would and have recommended Dr. Kutner, i think he is a great Doctor. He always takes his time with you, always explains things to you, so you can understand. I have had a few procedures with Dr. Kutner and i've never had any issues getting results back from him, after each procedure, whether is was a colonoscopy or endoscopy, he always would see you afterwards for any questions, which i think is great, so times after procedures, you are still a little "foggy" so follow-up appointments are greatly appreciated.

Excellent. I had C-Diff for almost a year. He was the only Gastroenterologist who knew the protocol on how to perform a Fecal Transplant. I was back to work in 2 days.

He took care of myself and my wife. He comes off as a caring individual but he doesn't practice confidentiality as on my wife's death bed with my grandchildren. He is good Dr but takes things as usual when crisis and doesn't always follow up with right tests. He is egotistical and holy than thou who thinks he is never wrong when he makes a mistake. Would not recommend him long term because he also has follow up appointments forever although not needed. My feeling More appointments money always

Dr. Kutner is a very caring person. I trust him explicitly also. He has never once in ten years let me down or gave me reason to look for another gastroenterologist. I would recommend him to anyone.
