Dr. Justin Bennet, MD

I just talked to Dr. Bennets office. They informed me that the VA referral was rejected, but did not say why. But it has been over two weeks and I had to call them. You would think they would have called me with such bad news. Dr. Bennets office gets an F.

I liked Dr. Bennet, but his medical office is the most disorganized, and unprofessional medical office I've ever dealt with. Calls were not returned, prescriptions were not sent in, or sent in with the wrong dosage. Very very frustrating.

My husband was being treated by Dr. Bennett for Colitis. I went to some appointments with my husband, and I observed Dr. Bennett to be insensitive, condescending, rude and confrontive towards my husband and myself in the office as well as on the phone!! We never imagined that a doctor could be this way; we found him to be very unprofessional and unhelpful! Judging from the results, we don’t feel the colitis was treated properly as the symptoms persisted and didn’t seem to improve over the three months that we saw him! Dr. Bennet was seldom available for follow-up on telephone calls and when he did call back, he was unsympathetic, accusatory, and sounded angry! His office assistant had a similar attitude and we felt uncomfortable going into the office. We, needless to say, would not recommend this doctor!

DR. JUSTIN. BENNET. IS. REALLY. BAD. SEEMS. NICE. BUT. HE SHOULD RETIRE. HE. IS. JUST. IN IT FOR. MONEY. THE. OFFICE. IS. REALLY. BAD.SO. UNPROFESSIONAL. DOES. NOT. HELP.

Staff is incredibly rude and sarcastic. Unable to get results from doctor and called numerous times. Is his staff even communicating with him ??? Finally needed to get my records and go to another doctor.

Almost killed me. He correctly diagnosed me with Crohn's, but had me on horrible treatment of steroids for MONTHS. I was in and out of the ER 5 times over the course of a few months, and every time he said that it was just a bad flare. Finally after the 5th visit, he did a colonoscopy to find that my bowels had swollen so severely they were almost sealed shut and were perforating. He didn't seem to care and said they could remove a large part of my intestines. After he left the room, the interim doctor and general surgeon closed the door and pleaded with me leave his care immediately. They graciously referred me to a new GI and surgeon at Stanford where they were able to help me. They were appalled at his care and informed me that his continued treatment would have likely proven fatal. His use of steroids and not proper treatment led to a second surgery and a much longer recovery process. In the midst of great pain and uncertainty, he had no sympathy or care. Stay away from him!

I was able to get in for a GI immediately. Dr. Bennett gave instructions immediately following recovery from the GI and I was expected to remember them. I called the office to get clarification of written instructions and it took several days for them to get back to me. Since then I have had an ultra sound and it took 10 days for results to be phoned to me. The follow up is now been scheduled at 3 months, due to office misunderstanding and doctor scheduling conflicts. Way to long. I would not recommend Dr. Bennet. He seems over committed and is not responsive enough.

Horrible. Staff are not interested in helping in any way. Forgot to send test results multiple times. Let me sit at home sick for months without sending me to a specialist, after not being able to diagnosis the problem. Did not return calls. Had to plead several times to him to get a referral to either Stanford/UCSF. When I saw a specialists they were so surprised that I was not put on medication to stop the symptoms from getting worse, while a diagnosis was sought.

I am mystified by criticisms of Dr. Bennett and his staff, because the circumstances they describe are so at odds with my experiences. He performed a colonoscopy and esophago-gastroduodenoscopy (the other end of my digestive tract) five years ago, and will be checking out my upper end again in a week or so (don't need the colonoscopy this time around, TBTG). To me he has been pleasant, knowledgeable, supportive, open to questions, and apparently willing to spend as much time as needed to put
