Overall my appointment was a good experience. Dr. Gurwara listened to my reasons for my visit and asked follow up questions. I'm hopeful that we are on the correct path to getting my GI issues under control.

It was rushed and quick, short time to digest information and have meaningful conversation, to understand the proposed monitoring, why, what & how

Dr Gurwara was on hand from the moment he entered the room he read from the computer my previous medical history and asked me all questions related to my current conditions; Dr Gurwara not only addressed my current condition but advised me to take a look to a very concerning issue that I haven't checked lately.
