Was told that the medication my previous doctor prescribed(which worked well for me) "doesn't treat IBS" despite that being the number one condition listed for reasons one would take said medicine. After that, Dr Nakka promptly told me there was nothing he could do for my IBS and I would just have to learn to deal with it. The office staff is somewhat friendly, but the doctor is cold and doesn't want to help

He is careless and very rude! Not sure if it’s his culture or what, but he has no respect for woman. I had a lot of questions and would kept talking over me.

a no nonsense doctor was what I was looking for and Dr Nakka is just that. He takes notes on your concerns and explains what he will do for you. His staff has always been friendly to me and very attentive to my many problems. he has been my doctor for 8 years. I have been thru 3 colon studies and one stomach study and have yet to feel any pain. He has removed 4 pollups , all benin (thank God!). I have taken his advice and feel much better now. I trust him!

During colonoscopy I found him cruel. It was painful and he didn’t seem to care. I cried out and he didn’t care. DON’t GO TO THIS MAN. HE IS RUDE, CRUEL AND CARELESS.
