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 Physician
I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Wijeratne. He has been an incredible source of support and expertise while caring for my mom during her battle with pancreatic cancer. From the very beginning, he took the time to thoroughly explain everything in a way that we could understand, making sure we felt informed and confident about her care.Beyond his medical knowledge, Dr. Wijeratne is truly compassionate. He genuinely cares about his patients, always taking the time to ask how my mom is feeling and remembering details about her journey. His personable nature and kind demeanor have made an incredibly difficult time a little easier for our family.It’s rare to find a doctor who is not only highly skilled but also warm, patient, and deeply committed to their patients' well-being. We are beyond grateful to have Dr. Wijeratne on our side, and I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a gastroenterologist who truly goes above and beyond.

I appreciated Dr. Wijeratne's professional, caring attitude toward a family member who needed continual care throughout his illness. Not an easy task while practicing in an underserved, rural area. Although the patient load must have been extremely difficult to coordinate, Wijeratne and his office worked diligently in following up with specialists in Dallas who were primarily involved with my family member's pre-transplant care. I absolutely recommend this doctor to anyone seeking medical care.
