EXCELLENT DOCTOR!!! Would not use anyone else even though St. Vincent Hospital is not convenient for me. It takes me an hour to get from my house to his office. He is extremely knowledgeable and a very well educated specialist in the field of Gastroenterology. I literally trust my life to him and have complete confidence in his abilities. Could not wish for a better doctor!

Absolutely the best doctor that I have seen in several years. He is friendly, professional and doesn't seem to be rushed. He ordered a test for me and when he received the results, he called me, not his nurse, I really appreciated that. I would definitely recommend this doctor for anyone

He did a gi exam. Acted in a thoroughly professional manner, friendly, and answered all questions without rushing. He even told more, above and beyond concenring my condition. Recommended by someone else and was thoroughly satisfied with his expertise and exam.
