Dr. Joann Kwah, MD

Dr Kwah is very responsive. She answers all questions in a thoughtful and timely manner. She orders whatever is needed to ensure an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan.

Dr. Joann Kwah is a knowledgeable and compassionate physician. I scheduled an appointment with her in August 2021 after I began experiencing severe heartburn that interferred with my daily life. She prescribed a PPI for me, and a month later, when I didn't improve with a PPI, diet modifications, and over the counter antacids, Dr. Kwah decided it was appropriate to schedule an upper endoscopy. Dr. Kwah thought I could be suffering from an extremely rare auto-immune disease, Eosinophillic Esophagitis, and the biopsy confirmed her hypothesis. I am an otherwise healthy young woman with a documented history of anxiety. That Dr. Kwah took me seriously is a godsend in and of itself. My condition is now in remission and I continue to check in with Dr. Kwah periodically. She has always exhibited patience and compassion during our appointments. I never once felt rushed or dismissed. I highly recommend Dr. Kwah.

Dr Kwah was incredible! Took the time to really understand my needs. I ended up getting a colonscopy with her where she carefully explained everything and answered all my questions. Would highly recommend.

I was quite disappointed with this gastroenterologist, Joanne Kwah. She was not at all receptive to my complaints nor did she even answer a question I posed to her in person and on line, but recommended I see a nutritionist. I would not recommend her to family or friends.
