Dr. Kumar is very knowledgeable. He is very patient and validated my concerns. I am so thankful that I started this journey to figure out what is wrong with me. Very easily reachable. Willing to see me outside of normal business hours to accommodate for my ridiculous schedule. Could not recommend him more!

I had both endoscopy and Colonoscopy done by Dr. Kumar. My husband came with me. Dr. Kumar talked with me before and after the tests. He was very thorough and pleasant. He put me at ease and the exams were literally painless. I did not know when it happened. I recommend him highly. My husband will go to him when he needs a gastroenterologist.

My experience with Dr. Kumar has left me quite impressed. I just had my first screening colonoscopy. If this is something you need to do and are dreading it, I highly recommend Dr. Kumar. He takes the time to see you in his office ahead of the procedure and talks with you in detail about what to expect. He is a patient and kind man and answers all questions. He even provides you with his personal cell phone and answers it directly so that his patient’s do not a have a run-around when trying to reach him. Also, the pre-procedure prep that he has you do is nothing compared to what I have witnessed some people endure! (And it costs out of pocket less than $10.) The procedure was done at the Waterfront Surgery Center. All of the nurses were terrific. Dr. Kumar treated me with the upmost respect and talked with me in person following the colonoscopy. He is a gentle man and a gentleman, and I am happy that my mother and aunt referred me to him. They are seniors and do not place reviews… online; however, if they did I am certain they would both give him 5 stars as well. My experience is that Dr. Pradeep Kumar is all that every doctor should be.
