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.

Excellent, communicative, professional.
You never enjoy going to any procedure but this was an excellent experience. Friendly staff, comfortable with a uplifting environment. The Dr was professional, listened to my concerns and addressed my issue. I couldn’t ask for better.

My appointment for Blair Gastro was on June 24, 2021, and I saw Dr. Bouassaf. I can’t state to you what a relief it was to have a physician that totally could talk to me on my level and describe what was going to happen and actually explain my CT Scan that was performed on me at UPMC Altoona in May when I went to the ER. The ER Dr should have been the one to interpret the results, but he just sent me home. Dr. Bouassaf got me to describe my symptoms in a way that no other doctor has succeeded because I usually feel pressed when I’m meeting with a doctor and I tangle up my words. He made me feel as though he honestly paid attention to me and wanted what was best. He showed very calmly the procedures he feIt I needed to have done and proposed I have a MRI at another facility. I highly recommend Blair Gastro and this is where I will go for all my Gastroenterology needs.
