Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Long wait time
I waited over a half an hour which normally wouldn’t bother me too much, but the room I was in was at least 80 degrees. After taking my coat off I was still profusely sweating which made the time feel even longer. However I don’t appreciate being told to arrive 15 minutes early just to wait a half an hour past my appointment time. I feel that’s disrespectful to my time. The doctor only spent roughly ten minutes with me and barely wrote any notes, was just referred for surgery. Nothing was solved, I felt like I was barely listened to after paying over $100 and waiting 45 minutes. I wasn’t a fan of this visit.

Excellent
Dr. Gupta takes time to explain every detail of medical procedures (if necessary) and overall gastrointestinal health care. He provides information in a way that is clear and understandable. I’ve been under his care since becoming quite sick, to now where I’m considerably improved. I trust him to maintain my health and I receive yearly wellness care.

Be prepare to see him for long time
He does not care about your illness. He does not want to cure your sickness. Be prepared to see him and take the medicine he prescribed for a lifetime. A different doctor can cure your GI problem within 3 months.

Dr. Gupta is quiet and unassuming, not arrogant at all. He explained my lab results, said they are not alarming, and advised I follow up in three months, with repeat labs one week before. Office staff were friendly and knowledgeable.
