I saw Dr. Arezo for a colonoscopy and endoscopy. He was reviewing my information as I was being prepped for the procedures. He was polite and professional as were his nurses. I was impressed with the promptness and efficiency of the procedures and very glad to have his expertise available at Walter Reed Hospital in Gloucester.

I just would like to know what happen to doctors caring, communicating ,and know about the patients . I just want a doctor who can explain and inform me on his findings. Not just hand me pills and say you will probably have to take this your whole life. Why, what can I do to help or make condition worse. Information would be helpful!

I've been seeing this doctor for over a year. Not only has he misdiagnosed me several times, but it's as if he didn't believe anything was wrong with me because the test results were all negative. He suggested that maybe it was all "psychological". He continues to argue a diagnosis 2 other gastros have given me, so as a result I am not on any medication regiment at all. I am desperately seeking a new dr. I've been living with the Pain of Crohn's disease with no help from him. Heck, he doesn't even believe me.

Becky the nurse that I saw to start with was very nice but she rapidly need to be seen by Dr. Arezo to have an endoscope. I can honestly tell you I saw him less then 5 min, including office visit, pre and post op. Oh yeah , NEVER saw him pre or post op. This NOT a Dr. I would recommend to my dog!
