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.

Never in my a million years if I was even still al
This happened about 20 years ago before these Google reviews but I hate and cannot stand this guy and he gives the good doctors out there a bad name . I have lived withCrohns and Colitis since I was 9 I am 50 now and every since I steered clear of these type of doctors I'm doing well without their tests, medicines poor bedside manners, and mind control, This guy here is why I won't go back to the digestive disease center in Pittsburgh, I wish he was retired he never did anything really bad but he never did anything really good either but if you like a doctor that's boring and don't crack a joke and is as stale as day old bread you will love him , ugh thinking what my problem was with him ok how would you like to have a electrolyte imbalance and needed fluids and nutrition and instead of giving me care he started laughing at my affliction now if that's what makes this man crack a smile there ya go he loves to see a person in pain .

After being admitted for severe abdominal pain, Dr. Duerr performed a colonoscopy to try to determine whether I was having a Crohns flare. Not only did I wake up during the procedure, I was not given anything for the inflammation and was told all my diagnostic tests were negative so I was being discharged. I was very disappointed that he did not care that I was still in pain and would not try to determine the source of my suffering and I am still in pain. I definitely would not recommend him.
