Diseases of the colon and rectum can sometimes be difficult to talk about. In many cases though, it is important that evaluation is not delayed. I want you to be assured that your symptoms will be taken seriously and in a professional manner. Do not put off an evaluation because you feel uneasy.

Best doctor. I hate to see him retire. Now I'm to see Dr. Hemple. Cannot find anything at all about him or her. Any information, let me know please.

Had an appointment at 11:30 was told to be there by 11:15 even after already sending in all my paperwork. Shortly after I arrived I was taken to a room , where I sat for 1 hour and 15 minutes. The staff never checked on me or told me the Doctor was running late. I got up and left.

Had an appointment for 11:30. I was told to be there by 11:15 even after already doing my paper work. I was taken to a room, there I sat for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Not once did anyone check on me or advise that the Doctor was running late. I got up and left. Use another Doctor, terrible service

I had to see Dr. Papp for an in office procedure and had a lot of anxiety and fear because of a bad experience for the same procedure only with a different Dr. He answered all my questions and cared about my fear and answered all my questions without trying to rush me out! I highly recommend Dr. Papp!

He is an excellent, caring doctor! He called me himself with my lab results and told me how we were going to proceed with my care.

I saw Dr. Papp for a long-standing problem for which I was considering a potential surgery. He convinced me that I did NOT need a major operation - if anything, a minor in-office procedure could easily solve my problem. He would be my first choice for any colorectal situations in the future.

Dr. Papp seens to be a very caring person in addition to being very knowledgeable and skilled. It is my feeling and opinion that a physician that sincerely cares is a far better physician because he brings to his medical practice, (ie) patients, his moral, ethical and spiritual self and combines it with his knowledge and skills.

Dr Papp is an awesome, caring doctor. He listens to you. the only problem I have is the wait time when put in an exam room. sometimes it can be 1/2 hr or better and no one comes in to keep me informed as to why he is late. other than that, he is worth the wait time. a great doctor and person.
