Waiting is the worse here!! 2 hour wait when you are on time?? Seriously needs someone who can better schedule his patients. Dr Hari is great but every appointment is a long wait. However if you are late they want to reschedule, if you can get them to answer your call!! So looking to change Drs

I had two colonoscopies in two years for no other reason than to check the diverticulosis & high hernia. I wasn't even having any issues with that, the IBS or GERD to warrant that second one. He also wanted me back again two years after that for another one! In between these he wanted me to drive an hour each way to sit in the tiny waiting room for 1-2+ hours past my appt time every 6-10 weeks only to ask me a couple of questions, listen to my stomach & send me on my way. No thanks! I switched dr's and Dr Hari's office refused to send my records to the new dr and started harassing me to make an appt with them even tho I had no referral with him again and my records were being requested elsewhere. I finally had to block their number because they kept calling, only to have a letter sent in the mail asking me to set up an appt.

Been treated over year for stomach issues, and still having same issues. On various medications with appts every three months. Nothing working. Heather is great, very overworked as being the only office support. Have to find another doctor. Being not diagnosed has caused other medical issues with throat.

Dr. Hari is one of the few Dr's still around who takes time with his patients to explain things, listen and do his best to diagnose and treat ailments. When I'm at his office (which is frequently), I never feel rushed.

Wonderful gastroenterologist. His staff is wonderful, and he has relieved almost all of my stomach problems that I had seen other doctors for.

This has to be the worst doctor ever. Misdiagnosed too many issues and I had to have surgery because Dr. Hari stated that I had a benign polup when in fact it was just Diverticulitis, cost me thousands of unnecessary dollars. I don't understand why it has him as a female on here because that is not the case. I would not recommend him to anyone for ANYTHING
