This is what Doctor Nino gave me. I came in with pain, discomfort and hopeless but his soft reassuring words of kindness and assurance reduced my pain by 50%. He saw me and immediately swung into action to schedule me in for an endoscopy. I had 5 days to embark on an international trip. I was struggling to get seen by gastroenterologists. It was so difficult to have a near date before my trip. Doctor Nino swung into action and assured me he would do all within his might to make sure he sees me and takes care of my problems before I travel. And he did exactly what he promised. Now my friends and family are transferring their preferences to Dr. Nino - he has a very kind and caring doctor. He was born for this. God bless you Dr. Nino"
"Dr karasik is a very caring doctor who performs innovated Healthcare procedures. I feel completely calm and trusting of his work. I've been blessed to have him as my doctor."
"Often time when I go to see a doctor they do not take the time listen to me as a patient. It’s always a two minute conversation with an hour wait time to my surprise, Dr. Scott Kramer was not like that . He very polite and took his time explained everything to me in a patient manner and tried his very best to be helpful and provide the best care for me . That is kind of care from a doctor is hard to come by."

Within 5 minutes of meeting him and talking I knew I just found my PERFECT Dr!!! He was so educated on all my prior surgeries and complications .. I scheduled a pouchoscopy with him (which I’ve never let any other dr do besides my surgeon) that’s how comfortable I was. And to this day I am so grateful to have met Dr w.

Fortunately and unfortunately he told me I no longer have chrons disease so I won't be seeing him any longer. And you're probably thinking really, Chrons disease is curable? Those were my thoughts exactly. I did have surgery 20 years ago to remove the affected area. The inflammation and scar tissue has not come back since then!! So, thank you for all your help over the years and should I have any further issues I will be sure to call your office. Will definitely miss you Dr. Smiley. P.Y."

She helped me reach remission, experience the best years of my life, and do things I never thought I'd do. She also helped me reach some goals after remission. Dr. Spivack never stops trying to help me and as the years go on I continue to be amazed at her work. She is very thorough and monitors me very closely to make sure I stay in remission and also properly screened for colon cancer, blood work, and abdominal ultrasounds. She is extremely compassionate and understanding. She has exceeded my expectations and I can't imagine anyone else taking care of me."

"I’ve been Dr Nelson’s patient for my annual physical for over 30 years. Dr Nelson stands out as a superb doctor for several reasons. First, he asks me questions and listens carefully. He checks all my vitals as is typical (blood pressure, palpates my abdominal organs, listens to my heart and lungs, etc). We go over my medications and my blood work. On a recent visit he informed me typical blood work does not include vitamins D and B12 levels unless a patient wants to pay 100% out of pocket assessing these as they are not standard. Good to have this option. Dr Nelson explains the importance of these vitamins and lots of other aspects of my health and is in no rush to answer my questions. I highly recommend Dr Nelson."
