As a woman I found his comments highly inappropriate while he was examining me. It seemed as if he had some weird perversions and reflect a lack of character.

Dr. Dunch is arrogant, rude and does not listen. I was suffering when I went to see him with hemorrhoids. He did nothing, but belittle me with short glib answers. He interrupted and talked down to me. Don't put yourself through what I went through. Waste of an office visit. I gave him 4 chances. He was like this each time. Never again.

This doctor has hepatitis C. Apparently doctors can still practices medicine with this disease. But do you really want to take a chance catching this?

I found Dr Dunch to be one of the finest Doctors I have been Blessed to have in my life.....I had major medical issues with my stomach and needed a reversal that would have required me to be opened up again causing possible scar tissue issues.....on top of the fact that I think he is the BEST in his field.....he was HONORABLE enough to refer me to a specialist at the Cleveland Clinic that did the surgery with a robot and NEVER made a CUT......Dr Dunch could have done this surgery as he has done 2-3K of them .....DR DUNCH chose to look out for ME the PATENT instead of his WALLET....Cleveland Clinic stated to me that any referrals they get from DR DUNCH are SPOT ON. THANK YOU DR DUNCH and your STAFF !

Dr. Dunch has been my doctor for 12 years. He is very thorough and spends the necessary time with me during appointments. I have never felt rushed, and have referred several friends to him. He is familiar with my history and has made great medical recommendations based on my history. I highly recommend him!

Both family members and other extended family have been under doctor's care for many years. He knows the family situation and is very helpful with managing our health.
