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.

Great Gastroenterologist and Fantastic Team
I've been a patient for over a decade. Dr. Crenshaw's team is fantastic, friendly, welcoming and very professional. Sherry, Office Manager and long-time medical assistant, is really terrific. The whole team made everything as easy as possible and worked with on office and procedure scheduling, follow-up, results, etc. Dr. Crenshaw, himself, is great. He is direct and thorough, while being easy going and highly professional. I appreciated his approach and personality. He made me feel comfortable about what needed to be done; you don't leave the office wondering or have questions.

I first met Dr. Crenshaw in the ER as he was called in to perform an emergency endoscopy on me. I feel very fortunate that I met Dr. Crenshaw that evening, and have been in his care ever since. If you are in need of a gastroenterologist, I highly recommend you meet with him. You'll know as soon as you meet him that he will work tirelessly to get to the root cause of whatever it is that you are dealing with. I trust him and respect his work, and would recommend him to anyone that I know.

Dr, Crenshaw as proven to me to be an excellent Doctor, I highly recommend him. I am a recovering cancer patient, GIST survivor, over 7 years cancer free, and Doctor Crenshaw was one of the Doctors credited for saving my life. How can I rate him any higher, he pays attention to detail, follows through with his patients and above all is thorough and knows his field. One of the best Doctors I ever had.

I like Dr. Crenshaw he's very knowledgeable, very professional and very responsive. His assistant Sherry is wonderful and so is the rest of the staff, my situation was exceptional as a 24 year old with IBD UC but he's walking me through it and anytime I've called I've been able to get through and get what I needed to get taken care of.

Several issues ranging from multiple clerical issues (sending prescription to the wrong pharmacy, then sending it under the wrong birthdate/ name) to a lack of engagement and followup during a colonoscopy. I didn't see the doctor till I was being put under, and didn't see him when I woke up. I called the night of my colonoscopy after I contracted a fever, and felt terrible. I didn't get a followup call from the office to see how I was or to discuss results. Too many issues to overlook.

I've been seeing Dr. Crenshaw for over 11 years and highly recommend him! I never feel rushed during my office visits. Dr. Crenshaw always takes the time to thoroughly explain any necessary procedure/diagnosis as well as answer any questions/concerns I might have in a clear and concise manner. Dr. Crenshaw is an excellent physician and it's a great relief to know I can count on his expertise when the need arises.

I have been seeing Dr Crenshaw for over 10 years, he is great. I saw many providers before Dr Crenshaw for the Crohn's Disease. He listens to my issues and gives me options, we find the right thing for me. My Crohn's is now under control. He and his office are great!!

Dr. Crenshaw is an incredible doctor. I have been seeing him for the past 3 years and wouldn't ever think that anyone else in the field could do what he has done for me. He takes his time, explains everything from a medical standpoint into something that makes sense to me, and is relentless in making me better. I have been a GERD/Acid Reflux sufferer for years before seeing Dr. Crenshaw. He has really helped fix my problem. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone looking for a doctor.

After many colonoscopys, I received a mass mailing letter from Dr. Crenshaw's office that I am being dropped because I am on Medicare. Most individuals receiving colonscopys are 50 or over. So can't count on him going into your retirement. I feel betrayed that I now have to find another doctor.
