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.

Had an endoscopy & colonoscopy. Dr. Faust spent les than a minute, giving me the results. I asked for my primary care physician to receive a copy of the results. He never received them. All attempts to speak to Dr. Faust were stymied by his assistant at the front desk. I never received any follow-up calls as to what my next step should be, nor would he accept my phone calls. There is no email in the office, so there is no way to communicate with the doctor. Worst experience I have ever had. No through, < way to communicate.£9

My husband & I have been see g Dr Faust for 11 years. He is an internist as well as our GI physician. He is absolutely amazing. He is like an “ old fashion” doctor how after each physical he phones to personally go over all your blood work. He has found things in my husband & myself that fortunately have been cared for. Love hi & wish more doctors were like him. He is dedicated to his profession.

Dr Faust is an excellent physician who cares deeply for his patients. One may have to wait but that is because he will always fit in patients who have an emergency which is very reassuring. He takes time with each patient and one never feels rushed or that he has something more important waiting. I can recommend him without any reservation. He is a wonderful doctor and a lovely human being

I have seen Dr Faust for about 9 years regarding a worrisome cyst which fortunately appears not to grow and to be benign in nature. He is an excellent physician in whom I have complete trust. He has always given me sufficient time and has patiently explained my situation and the possible future courses of action should one of the 4 MRi's I've taken under his auspices reveal anything negative. I have and would in the future most highly recommend him to anyone seeking a gastroenterologist.
