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.

Dr. Gelzayd's An Outstanding Doctor!
Think about what you'd hope for in a doctor, and specifically in a gastroenterologist, and Dr. Gelzayd will exceed those expectations. He's knowledgeable, experienced, thorough and communicates clearly and patiently. I had significant acid reflux. Dr. Gelzayd did a complete examination, and recommended several steps for me to take...within a very short period of time the reflux was under control and the damage it had done to my esophagus had fully healed.

Dr. Gelzayd saved my life!
Dr. Gelzayd saved my life. I was having some issues a year ago and he brought me in as a pre-caution at 36 years old. He found two polyps, one which was pre-cancerous and removed them. I have my 1 year follow up next month. If it wasn't for him, I may not be able to see my two daughters grow up. If I would have waited for the standard age to get a colonoscopy, I would be dead in a few years...full stop! I am all for telehealth initial screenings. I am a busy father of two and have to work. I appreciate the flexibility. Highly recommend Dr.Galzayd. He genuinely cares for your well being and will also recommend life style changes and diets that can help.

Dr. Gelzayd was an excellent doctor. I have been to several Gastroenterologists and he told me information that none of the others bothered to inform me about. I feel I have a much better understanding of my problem and would highly recommend Dr. Gelzayd.

DR GELZARD'S EXPERTISE IS USING GOOGLE - FOR THIS REASON WE CERTAINLY DO NOT RECOMMEND HIM!!! Dr Gelzayd only does Telehealth appointments. No in person appts. Our son was seeing him after the 2nd Telehealth appt when the next step was Rehab, this doctor could provide NO GUIDANCE or recommendations on Rehab - NONE. He said, "Google it" He had been practicing for 20+ years and had no recommendations or guidance - Zero value add. He requested to see our son again after Rehab to review the lab test. We can get the lab results online and use Google to help interpret the lab results. FYI - Another reason NOT to consider this doctor. We had the 2nd appt, only for the doctor to Cancel it. When we tried to reschedule it they pushed it out over a month. His scheduler was combative and showed no grace, and should consider doing something else. When the 2nd appointment happen he was 20 minute late
