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.

I switched to Dr. Geisman when I moved from out of state. He might be good if you has easily identifiable diseases, but really seemed like he did not care nor believe issues reported. He previously said to come in when having issues, but his appointments were over 6 months out. When I got in 2 months later, he complained about not coming in while having issues. When I explained because he had no openings, he was like well yeah... He then said he was going to schedule another test and blood work, but never did.

Negative 5 Stars
We were referred to Dr Richard Geisman but now we will tell everyone to STEER CLEAR. My mom's current gastroenterologist doesn't do a dang thing for her. My mom has had stomach aches for years and we wanted to change to Dr Geisman and they wouldn't accept my mother as a patient. The office manager said something about it was their office policy because my sister had called to get a second opinion years ago. I told her we're not looking for a second opinion I told her we were looking to change. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME CALLING THIS OFFICE.

Been my GI for 26 years
I have seen Dr Geisman for 26 years for colonoscopies due to family history of colon cancer.He is very pleasant, professional and I trust what he says. While I am not happy that I have to see him as often as I do (who would be :-) ), I also believe this is keeping me from dying of colon cancer.

Dr. Geisman has a bad bed side manner. He rushes you through appointments and doesn’t seem to care if you are hurting or uncomfortable. He doesn’t want to listen to how you feel.

Took excellent care of Mom & then at about the age of 55 I started seeing him. I’m now 72 & he is by far my favorite Doc! Always professional, attentive & very easy to talk to! I also believe his staff of medical people are equally available & knowledgeable. He is also board certified in internal medicine, which I think is an extra knowledge plus. I would recommend no other gastroenterologist!

Office manager Cindy Burke literally laughed over the phone at my medical emergency. I'm bleeding and she actually admitted that it was her that was laughing. She didn't even try to hide it. I have gotten sicker since seeing Dr Geissmann and that may be because his level of care is the same as his workers. Unprofessional with hardly any concern and the gastro system is nothing to play with but yet he does in my opinion. He doesn't listen and I told him that my sister died from stomach cancer

At 57 years old, Dr. Geisman is the best doctor I have ever experienced. Personable and genuinely cares about my health. Honest and straight forward about my care. I wish he was my primary care doctor.

He ordered an abdominal CT scan to diagnose abdominal pain I was having. Later, I found out that the CT scan showed a nodule in my left lung. Dr. Geisman did not even tell me this.
