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.

Very thorough and communicative
Dr Alloju takes time to explain things so they are human understandable, without needing to Google afterwards. He is thorough and compassionate. I have had him treat me for both colonoscopies and an ERCP. He’s great and his staff is very helpful.

Great doctor
Dr. Alloju was my go-to doctor for my digestive issues. I was with him for about 10 years. Previously, he had performed two colonoscopy procedures for me eight years apart. This time, he performed an upper GI endoscopy for me due to my discomforts in the stomach region. The procedure was 100% successful. It was painless, and minimal invasive that enabled me to return to my routines the same afternoon. He did the procedure in the Allen facility which was first rate in every respect.

I've had a great experience with my professional Gastroenterology, Dr. Murali Alloju. Never before have I experienced such informed kindness which truly helped to calm my anxiety before embarking upon ERCP(bile duck stone) surgery. In addition, I must commend his entire staff as they helped me every step of the way and made me feel they really cared. Dr. Murali Alloju exudes confidence with humility. He answered all my questions in a way that I could understand. The recovery process has been extremely successful. I've got nothing but the best to say about Dr. Murali Alloju and his entire team.

Barely acceptable care
I went in with digestive issues as well as heartburn. They scheduled me for a colonoscopy and an endoscopy for about two and a half months out which seemed like a long time. No communication from the office until a few days before to demand full payment before the procedure. This was still fine. The procedure went ok. Then my uvula after the procedure elongated and I still couldn’t eat solid food and cried if I drank anything. I called the office for help or suggestions, they asked that I come in only for him to tell me everything was normal, charge me 50$ and send me on my way. My uvula is dragging on my tongue, and it not only hurts to swallow but I feel like I’m going to choke. The front desk girl Christina was very nice and gave better advice than the doctor for free. I will never go here again. My husband had to bite his tongue not to say something to the doctor. I am shocked that he couldn’t do anything at all.

Excellent personal experience
At 68 this was my first experience regarding a colonoscopy for reasons I won’t go into. However Dr Alloju and staff made this an excellent experience. Never once at any time after the procedure did I ever feel any pain nor discomfort. Dr Alloju was magnificent, friendly, and professional. Afterwards I honestly never felt as though I had the procedure done. Also, the anesthesiologist was wonderful as well with a tremendous personality. All staff was friendly and I am pleased to recommend Dr. Alloju and his staff to anyone considering a colonoscopy.

Dr. Alloju made me feel very comfortable. Explains everything very clearly and easy for me to understand. I feel I’m in good hands with him and since my Mom died of stomach cancer it’s very important not just to me but also my daughter that we feel I’m in good hands. I highly recommend him.

Top notch!
Dr. Alloju is top notch, and his office staff is fantastic as well. He is very kind and willing to spend all the time needed with his patients. As everyone knows, just going to the doctor's office for any checkup, let alone a GI, can be nerve-wracking; however, Dr. Alloju has a calm and encouraging manner that puts you at ease. TOP NOTCH!
