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.

He recommended out patient colonoscopy at the hospital but because I was staying there is was going to do it I didn’t like the care I was getting so I left and called his office and he refused to see me because my hemoglobin was up and I wasn’t actively bleeding so basically he wanted my hemoglobin to go back to where I had to get blood transfusion than he would give me a colonoscopy when we knew my history as well as my family history and didn’t know where the blood was coming from after already doing a flexible s in me . So he recommended, was going to preform than refused.

I was low on hemoglobin he did my Flexible Sigmoidoscopy (where he find no bleeding)he was fine and recommended me to get an outpatient colonoscopy but because I was already staying in the hospital due to my hemoglobin he was going to do it there the next morning while I wasn’t getting the treatment that I should have so I left the hospital than I followed up with him and because I wasn’t actively bleeding and my hemoglobin was back up he refused me for even a outpatient appointment knowing my previous medical history along with family history and not knowing where the blood was coming from. What kind of doctor recommends outpatient, is going to give inpatient than refuses a patient because they aren’t actively bleeding or wants to wait until you hemoglobin goes back down where you have to get a blood transfusion cause it’s 6.5than it goes to 7.1than you have 4bloody stools and it goes back to a 6.9you have another and cause it goes to a 9 and not actively bleeding.Refuses you.

Dr Walsh has been my provider over several years performing colonoscopy procedure. He has always made me feel at ease performing this procedure and this last visit was no different. I have full confidence in his ability performing the procedure. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone needing this procedure
