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 Irions has been my GI doctor for over 4 years. He is always professional and friendly. While he is respectful of appointment times, he always takes time to listen to any concerns that I may have and I never feel rushed during my visits with him. I also know that between visits I can reach out to his assistant via the portal with questions and I get answers in a timely manner.I have had quite a few doctors in different states with my illness and Dr Irions is by far, the best one I have had.

Performance review for Dr Irions
What I noticed right away was his friendly demeanor and ease of making me feel comfortable. He took the time to listen to all my complaints and offered viable solutions. On my follow up visit, he patiently went over all the results and was happy that the diet changes he had offered had made a significant difference in my daily life.

Would unreservedly recomment Dr Irions!
Dr. Irions is my favorite doc of all time! I felt comfortable and safe from the moment of our first visit. His opening words were 'I've read your chart (which most docs don't do) and I can help you. He put me completely at ease and he made my visit fun. I put my faith and trust in Dr. Irions and was not disappoiinted.

The Most Impressive Patient Experience
From the moment of introduction, Dr. Irions made me feel like a valued participant in my own healthcare. His approach was not only professional, but also deeply compassionate, treating me as he would a family member. Dr. Irions never shied away from discussing the possibilities openly and honestly. His intelligence and expertise were evident in our conversations, reassuring me that I was in capable hands. What truly set Dr. Irions apart was his holistic approach to patient care. He took the time to address my concerns and answer all of my questions, demonstrating a genuine interest in both my well-being and my understanding of the situation. I am grateful for Dr. Irion's guidance and support. Without hesitation, I would recommend him to anyone in need of a highly skilled gastroenterologist. Dr. Irions truly embodies the essence of exceptional healthcare, and I am fortunate to have been under his care.

professional, knowledgeable, thorough and kind
I have been suffering with chronic diarrhea for over 10 years. I saw numerous doctors over the years including a colonoscopy 10 years ago. It was not until my visit with Dr Irons that I finally had a diagnosis after he did a diagnostic endoscopy and colonoscopy. At my follow up appointment, he explained that he had taken 7 biopsies which enabled him to find that I have Lyphocyitic Colitis. He put me on a very specific steroid regiment. I have not yet finished the treatment and already the symptoms have subsided tremendously. Dr Irons gave me my life back!!! I am so very grateful to have found this amazing GI doctor.

Dr. Eddie L. Irions is an exemplary Gastroenterologist. He is passionate about medicine and equally invested in patients being knowledgeable about their own health status. He is a trailblazing healthcare professional breaking down barriers concerning healthcare. His health consult reassures the patient that you are an individual and not just a patient among many. I am grateful to a friend who referred me. I too will continue to recommend Dr. Irions.

He's the best GI Guy
Dr. Irions is very easy to talk to about sensitive/embarrassing issues. I’m sure he’s heard it all before, but you don’t feel embarrassed speaking to him. He really LISTENS to you. You don’t feel rushed, and you leave feeling you were heard. He answers all your questions and explains them, so you understand and remember after your appointment. You don’t spend a long time waiting in the lobby, you are called before you finish completing your paperwork. He deserves 10 stars. If you are having GI issues this is the doctor you want to see!

The Best Quality Care
I have gone to many GI doctors over the years and Dr. Irions is the best. From being knowledgeable of my health issues to listening to my health concerns he has been a pivotal part of my journey to becoming healthy again. He has always been understanding, asked questions about my symptoms, and discussed my options with me, not at me. He cares about my overall health and wants to see me as healthy as possible. I have recommended him to my friends and family that are in need of a GI and they have all been happy with the health care they have and are receiving from him.

Dr. Irions is THE BEST doctor ever! He is kind and compassionate, respectful, very knowledgeable and extremely competent. He explains things very clearly. He engages you as his patient. He takes time to be sure you are clear on your medical condition and the implications moving forward. My husband was just diagnosed with Barrett’s Disease and we are confident with the care Dr. Irions has and will continue to provide. He’s been our doctor for the past 3 years. He is very diligent, and that is reassuring to us as his patients. His staff and endoscopy center team are also excellent and we know we are in great hands receiving our care there. The colonoscopy prep he orders isn’t too bad either! We wouldn’t want to go to another GI doc! As a registered nurse, I know he is who I want for my care and that of my family and I highly recommend him and my husband does also.

I was wondering how Dr Irions had so many 5 star reviews... and now I know. After 3 years of ulcerative colitis + diverticulitis, I set out to find a doctor that could help me get to the root of my issues. Dr Irions has the rare combination of compassion and expertise that really does make you want to go online and write a review. Immediately he made me feel at ease and confident in the path ahead, even when my test results were not what I was hoping for. Battling a chronic & lifelong illness like IBD is tough. It's a constant battle between managing disease symptoms, medication risks, and mental health. Finding a doctor that you can trust as a partner on that journey is pretty energizing. Thank you Dr Irions!!!

This young man is a gift to the medical community. My daughter has been having unexplained stomach issues and no one could seem to determine what it my be and she was becoming very depressed about it since she’s only 19 and is starting her career in nursing. Dr Irions saw her and determined that he would find out what her issue is and began to share his journey through medical school and let her know that she is greatly needed in the medical field and that he would do his part to make sure that she would accomplish her goal to feel better, and to encourage her to become the nurse that she so desperately needs to be. My daughter and I left his office practically in tears because he was so positive and uplifting to her. I’ve never in my entire life (I’m 58yrs old) met a Dr like this man. God had a calling on his life and he has definitely answered the call. Please keep being the amazing Dr that you are Dr Irions. God bless you and your practice.
