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.

The personal at frontdesk extreme arogant and not nice.... The dr. Arai, Extremely Rushed consultation, 5 min consultation for colonoscopy and endoscopy, no to much obtions given, no explanation, he didn't even listen what symptoms I have, I was sent to colonoscopy and endoscopy... Of course to his company, at the same floor... And then no follow up appointment, he even didn't call me, the nurse call me to give some medicine, whiteout to explain anything why. When I ask she told me that she doesn't know for what I have to take those antibiotics and other med. Till I went there to request a copy of my tests, I didn't know why I received those medications. Tereble doctor, very superficial... I am recomandat this doctor, very disappointed...

Made an appt as a new patient but when I arrived to fill out paperwork, I was told I needed to leave a credit card on file as office policy states they automatically charge your card for any balance due once your insurance processes the claim. I don’t like that policy because insurance companies pay incorrectly all the time and I was not prepared to fight for a refund. Also did not like that they don’t prepare you for that when making the appt do you don’t waste time going for nothing.

Dr. Arai is a great physician. He is not only an expert in his field, but a warm and caring individual as well! Dr. Arai fit me into his busy schedule to immediately address my concerns. He is more easily accessible than many of his colleagues. He communicates well when necessary. His nurse/assistant is kind and efficient. I would recommend him to anyone seeking a qualified gastroenterologist.

Dr. Arai did my colonoscopy today without anesthesia. He and his staff, especially Kathie made this experience easy and interesting. Dr. Arai is compassionate and dedicated doctor as well as being extremely knowledgeable. in my opinion he is the only doctor to use when you need to gastroenterologist. He took an experience that is usually extremely uncomfortable and made it extremely pleasant. He's been my gastroenterologist for the last 3 years and always will be. Simply the Best!

I saw Dr. Arai for a flexible sigmoidoscopy with a banding for severely bleeding internal hemmoroids. Dr. Arai was great! and so was his nurse that assisted him. he thoroughly explained the procedure beforehand as well as during the procedure he has an "upbeat" "positive" vibe about him and a good sense of humor which for me was key at putting me at ease I would definitely recommend Dr. Arai and digestive care of Broward!

I was lucky to connect with Dr Arai 3 years ago! He was able to find the right treatment for me to get my UC IN CONTROL AND REMISSION, He explains treatment and lab results and consults and communicates with my other physicians regarding my treatment and results. His assistant Dawn and nurse Gail are the best!

I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Arai and his associates. I couldn't be happy with the care that I have received with Dr. Arai. The staff is excellent as well. I mostly deal with Gail and Dawn and they are awesome!! If you need a gastrointestinal doctor do yourself a favor and go see Dr. Arai.

Not sure if I would go back here again. Staff is rude. Doctor didn't seem sure of himself. Practice is too large which equals poor quality of care in my opinion. Had more then one visit and I am not impressed so looking elsewhere.
