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. Oblinger saved my life! He is so thorough & was totally invested in my well being...physically & emotionally. I will never forget how he was so compassionate the whole time I was going through my my scary ordeal. I would recommend him to anyone that needs to see a GE

The staff was very courteous and professional. They told me to arrive a half hour before appointment. The wait was about half hour. Everything was explained as we went along. The doctor spoke to me twice and once after the procedure. He was very professional an quite through. Would recommend this office.

I have been a long time patient of Dr. Oblinger. He is very professional but also shows compassion about you and how you are feeling. I have had multiple procedures at his surgery center located on the lower level, and received excellent care. I highly recommend him and his staff.

This is my second colonoscopy ten years apart. I am from Culpeper and tried to get a local gastro to do this but i had trouble getting the right person on the phone and began to feel frustrated. So I went back to this doctor, 40 miles away. The experience was top notch. From getting the appointment to getting questions answered. All the staff are efficient and friendly, inspiring cinfidence. Glad I went the extra miles!

I've had two colonoscopy procedures with Cr. Oblinger. Dr. Oblinger, the anesthesiologist and nursing staff all work together as a team to provide quality care. Several of my friends shared stories of uncomfortable procedures. Other than having to take 24+ hours off from field work, the process was not to bad. If you're looking for a good doctor, check out Dr. Oblinger and the rest of the team.
