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.

I made an appointment as a first time patient to schedule my first colonoscopy. The waiting room was dirty. Behind the counter patient files were clearly overflowing from file cabinets and in disarray across the reception desk. The receptionists handled patients in person while also talking on the phone. I was given several pages of redundant forms to fill out. I arrived at 9:45am for a 10:00am appointment. At 10:30am I had still not been called back from the waiting room. I cancelled my appointment and will go elsewhere.

A Provider that Cares about the Patients He Treats
I had an exceptional experience with Dr. Indrakrishnan! From start to finish, the care and attention I received were top-notch from him and his staff. Dr. Indrakrishnan took the time to listen to my concerns during my consultation. He explained the procedures thoroughly, and ensured that I felt comfortable every step of the way. The Gwinnett Digestive office staff, from the front to back office were friendly, professional and I truly appreciated their compassionate approach. Dr. Indrakrishnan, the Anesthesia’s and the medical staff made the entire process seamless. I would highly recommend Dr. Indrakrishnan to anyone in need of gastroenterological care—he truly goes above and beyond to get you well and Stephanie will get you scheduled in quickly without waiting for months to be seen by a doctor!

Could not have a consultation
My husband was in the clinic waiting for the doctor, when he was in the consultation room the doctor was doing too many tasks at the same time and never give time to him to explain his issues, just said he going to need the treatment but never explain nothing, nrver ask about concerns and did not have any time to clarify any doubt about his health.Very unprofessional interrupting the consulting time doing diferent things during the time that need to be specially to attend the patient.

Visit with Dr. Indrakrishnan
The doctor reviewed information from a current test. He was very detailed and guided my impression of the results to be positive. He asked about my needing a new prescription and had the prescription sent directly to my pharmacy. The doctor gives excellent information. I have been seeing Dr Indrakrishnan for about 17 years. Very caring and very helpful in correcting my health issues. I recommend him.

ITS ALL ABOUT MONEY, HONEY
the lady who sits by the counter is rude - so you get a hang of what it is going to be like.the elderly nurse is the ONLY person who has any feelings , sympathy, care. rest are all machines.Indra krishnan is a busy man. He only spends less than 5 mins, no matter what your problem is.He will quickly recommend a colonscopy, so he can squeeze more money out of you.NEVER GO THERE - THANK ME LATER.

Wonderful visit
After updating my file, I was seen for my appointment within five minutes and saw the doctor once vitals were taken. Doctor took time reviewing my file, explained my next step and scheduled my colonoscopy. Office personnel explained preparation for the procedure. Such efficiency, kindness and efficiency. Wonderful.

I didn’t feel that I was respected at all with doc
my visit did not go well at all. I return three times to the office to correct my paperwork that was incomplete. I was interrogated very harshly by the doctor. Because I could not remember all the details of my previous treatments.

Good Doctor
I only recently started seeing Dr. Krishnan. I was very ill on my first visit and they were all so very kind to me. Dr. Krishnan is the best. He explained my issue and prescribed the perfect medication to resolve it. Now I am happy to go for regular visits just to make sure I stay healthy. I am so grateful to Dr. Krishnan and his staff. Today was a follow-up visit and I'm still good. Thank you.

Good experience with Dr. Krishnan. He's very knowledgeable in his field, pleasant and professional however my visits did seem rushed. Would suggest slow down with communication/consultation. Other than that I was satifisfied.

I was referred for a colonoscopy. The consultation went well and Dr. Indrakrishnan was very personable. He explained everything very well to me. Tomorrow, I'll have my colonoscopy and fell confident that all will go well.

not impressed
I waited for an hour and a half in the waiting room. Then the Dr. was with me for less than 60 seconds. Wouldn't acknowledge my current concerns, and rushed to sign me up for a colonoscopy. I may need the colonoscopy, but I have another issue that he refused to address. I won't come back here.

I can't speak highly enough about the experience
I recently had a procedure with Dr. Indrakrishnan and his team, and I can't speak highly enough about the experience. Without delving into specifics, I can confidently say that it was one of the most professional, comfortable, and efficient medical experiences I've ever had.From the outset, the team made sure I felt informed and at ease. Dr. Indrakrishnan's demeanor is both warm and confident, which made me trust his expertise immediately. The procedure itself went seamlessly, and I was surprised at how quickly and painlessly it was completed.Post-procedure, the aftercare and follow-up were exemplary. The team ensured I knew what to expect in the coming days and was always available for any queries or concerns.I truly appreciate the care and professionalism exhibited by Dr. Indrakrishnan and his entire team. Highly recommended for anyone seeking top-tier medical care. Kudos and thank you for making what could have been an intimidating experience a breeze!

Thorough and Thoughtful
Dr IndraKrishnan worked with the anesthesiologist to insure that the anesthesia would not compromise my myasthenia gravis. He had a thoughtful plan to investigate the concern of internal bleeding during my examination. The facility was well staffed and organized, and my procedure went smoothly and the results were well documented in a report that I will give to my General Practitioner and Hematologist.
