"The best care, they treated me like I was family. I would refer this Doctor and his team to everyone. Everyone from the start of talking on the phone with the receptionist going in filling out paperwork, the place is CLEAN and the procedure went like clockwork. I appreciate them all."
"Kind, caring people and a great facility. The staff and doctors were very helpful and receptive to my health concerns. Proactive and great follow-up. I felt very well taken care of."
"Dr. Rosenblatt and staff were so wonderful to me and my 1st time experience with a colonoscopy. Her staff greeted me warmly and empathized with my nerves. However, her office and staff made me feel like I was in for my spa treatment and not an outpatient medical procedure. She personally sat down with me and explained the medical process. She made me feel safe and I was in good hands which I was from beginning to end. She has the nicest bedside manners anyone could ask for from a Dr. and I greatly recommend any of my family members and friends to her for their colonoscopy of any gastrointestinal needs. The office called me the next day to make sure I was feeling okay or if I had any questions they could I assist me with after my procedure. I had a wonderful experience and I’m ready for my next one which is in 10 years. Thank you Dr. Rosenblatt and staff. Dora"
"Dr. Yana Parker is expert in her medical practice of Gastroenterology. I trusted her completely during recent outpatient endoscopy procedure. Can recommend without hesitation. Thank you Dr. Parker."
"I've had Dr. Siddaih for 15 years. He has always been very concerned about his patients care. And I've always been very happy with how he performs the procedure."
"Very welcoming, professional, timely and well worth my time to be seen be Dr. Siddaiah last week. I'm very pleased with my first impressions. He is very thorough and kind."
"Their stuff are all friendly. Doctors are helpful. I had colonoscopy and they checked my colon throughly. The facility is very clean and new. I’m really content with this clinic."
"This was my first procedure, and it was no problem. Thank you Dr Lin Hang, you made this experience very comfortable and professional. Now I am spreading the importance of doing this. This changed my life and rearranged my priorities!🤩"
"Dr Brown and his team made me feel at ease with the procedure and took great care of me. They made the whole process very easy to prepare for. Very helpful with the text alerting me of the steps that I needed to take days coming up to my appointment."
"Dr. Siddaiah was able to put me at ease with his humor and knowledge of his field! Everyone in the office was extremely kind, receptionist, nurse and of course Dr.Siddaiah!"
"Excellent care provided by Dr. Kalle Kang & all support staff. From check-in to check-out, every staff member offered personal, cheerful interactions. Ample time was given for explanation prior to procedure & to answer all my questions before & after. Truly, the most compassionate health care service I've ever received. Highly recommend!"
"Dr Philo put me very much at ease and very positive. Wish he was doing my procedure but I'm going to Sunrise since it's only a few miles from my home"
"Dr Rosenblatt was very helpful and kind and what she told me to do already seems to be helping. The difficulty is that it took so long to be able to talk to her and get help. I have had a severe case of diarrhea and exhaustion for 1 1/2 years. I saw her in March of 2024, which was 9 months ago. I wish I had been told to take this medication then. But instead had to wait for testing to be done which took till September and then 4 months to get to talk to her again."
"Wonderful team, each one so competent. Anesthesia was perfect. Dr. Gulati was caring, kind, and put me at rest immediately. Exceeded my expectations. World class, best compassionate care imaginable."
"The staff and Doctor were awesome! Really nice, compassionate and caring! Explained everything and Explained each step they took from the time I walked in to the time I left! Highly reccomend this Doctor and staff!"
"It was easy. They are prepared. I really like the print out I can read a couple days later when I am thinking more clearly. Thank you Dr. Schwartz and your well trained staff."
"Great follow up after the procedure. Excellent staff, clean and pleasant office environment. Dr. Sugar was thorough and confident, answered questions before and after the procedure."
"wonderful staff, attentive and upbeat and blessedly reassuring. fast but thorough procedure; responsive and unhurried recovery time. Dr. Moussan & his team are fantastic."
"Great experience from checking in at the front desk to the interview with the nurse, walking back to colonoscopy and waking up. Great with follow up!"
"Dr. Rosenblatt is very personable and caring. She did a great job of explaining everything to me. I have seen her twice so far and will again when necessary. Great Dr"
"Dr. Dale, his staff, and the anesthesiologist did an amazing job with my cholecystectomy! They handled me with grace and care before, during and after my operation. I would definitely recommend his office for care."
"This whole office, nurses, doctors and everyone you come in to contact with are absolutely amazing! I can’t recommend them enough! They make everything so easy, fast and they are very kind! Colonoscopies aren’t that fun in nature lol but I am never worried about my experience- it’s always great!"
"This is my 2nd colonoscopy with Dr Holderman and he, and his team, are by FAR the best in the business! You won't be disappointed! Great communication, Great prep supplies, instructions and followup, Fantastic facilities and a Flawless professional staff! Your colon will thank you! Photos? No thanks... If you've seen one a-hole, you've seen them all! Mine is no different than anyone else's..."
"Dr. Yap is a congenial human and a good communicator. I like doctors who listen to concerns and who address those concerns. Dr. Yap fits perfectly into that subset."
"The prep was the worst part of the entire experience. The facility and staff helped to make you feel more at ease with a warm blanket. Once every 10 years is a small amount of discomfort for a large price of mind."
"Michelle Hendricks as always willing to offer and go out of her way to give you the information regarding your health issues, she's a good listener we need more physicians like her that make you feel they care versus doctors with robotic feelings they make you feel they don't care about you.. You got a winner with Michelle Hendricks."
"You walk into the office GOOD VIBES from front desk to nurses and Dr. Ganguli. Everything went well, they were very helpful. I give this place a 20/10🤩"
"Dr. Raj Butani is a great doctor. He pays attention to details. I choose to believe he has my best interest art heart. I never get the feeling that Dr. Butani isn’t doing all he can to look out for my health! With that in mind, I highly recommend his services to anyone that needs a highly competent gastroenterologist."
"As always, WA GI provided great care and service. I was in and out in an acceptable amount of time and the care team was exceptionally supportive and friendly."
"Great office! Dr. Philo explained my situation and gave me a confident plan of care, he explained and answered all my questions and put my mind at ease."
"I highly recommend Dr Yana Parker and her team. I just went through a procedure at her surgery center and they were amazing. Everyone I came into contact with was professional, courteous, supportive, and caring. Thank you"
"Dr. Garrick Brown and staff treated me courteously and with professionalism. Although I have not received my biopsy results yet, the colonoscopy was quick with little discomfort after the procedure."
"My visit with an RN went well. She explained the colonoscopy procedure to me. I know what to expect on the day of the procedure. She also explained the steps I needed to take to ensure that I am cleared for the procedure. It was a good meet and greet. I hope the procedure will go well."
"Never been to this office & givin 5 starz cuz im not a spitefull individual . But i have a referal for a colonoscopy at this location & im reading the reviews . Buisnesses tk note . Google is a very important tool & u can always expect 1 or 2 not so good reviews nature of the beast. But when u see a long history of negative reviews that to me is calling a duck a duck . Again take note . Based on your reviews . I will be switching my upcoming procedure location ."
"The billing department was much more helpful than Regence when I had questions. They could teach the insurance company a few things about customer service"
"Dr. Gulati is without a doubt the best Doctor I've ever had! He is warm, engaging and truly cares about his patients. If he were a PCP I would switch to him in a heartbeat...God bless him!"
"Praise GOD.Dr.Schwarz and staff are Phenomenal.The receptionist, friendly and helpful.Intake Nurse Reagan Awesome, very informative, detailed and professional.I did the procedure without sedation, Josephine was very helpful explaining the progress of where the scope was, when to expect a little discomfort, etc.Victor and Ina equally as awesome assisting during the procedure. Dr.Schwarz is top notch professional, explaining and doing the procedure.Finally, Recovery Nurse did a fantastic job.Yours in CHRISTJESUSAaron P Thompkins"
"Dr Huang and his team are very professional and caring. I don’t know how you can make a colonoscopy enjoyable, but this team made the process very comfortable for me.😁"
"Doctor Kang is very nice. He explain to patient the details to help them understand the solution. All staff in his clinic are very kind and professional."
"Dr. Siddaiah was on time, not that I worry about that. I was hesitant to go to a new Dr. but he was a good listener and good at explaining why I was miserable! I was thrilled that his treatment plan didn’t include a scope!"
"Dr Reed-Lui and team really took care of me. The team seemed to really care about my comfort and ensuring I knew exactly what was happening. Would strongly recommend care here."
"I was very pleased with this visit. Doctor was caring and gave me good advice on my problems. I felt comfortable talking to him. He ordered some tests and I feel he really wants to help me. I'm happy I met him."
"Everyone at the clinic was helpful, very kind, and understood how nervous I was. They made sure I was comfortable and understood each step in the process. I was very impressed and appreciated everyone i dealt with. Phenomenal customer service."
"Dr Sugar and especially shayla Fawcett his PA are just wonderful. I cannot thank them enough for all their help and expertise to get my son ( who has ulcerative colitis) to get a resemblance of a normal life. They are thoughtful and informative,always established a complete plan and kept us informed of it. They answered any questions we ever had. The office personnel were always friendly and courteous. I would also like to thank them for helping with the insurance company and getting assistance on very very expensive medications. It was and is a long journey to manage his condition but with them on our team I am able to have some piece of mind that he is covered and cared for, cannot thank them enough!"
"I was very very pleased with the results of my procedure, the professionalism and knowledge of my doctor and nurse. Outstanding communication and attentiveness. My anxieties were quickly put to rest. Outstanding medical attention. Dr Philip is an outstanding doctor."
"Every aspect of my care was excellent from scheduling the procedure through the post procedure care. I felt well informed, safe and very much appreciated the kindness and care I received."
"I have received excellent service from the Gig Harbor office of Washington Gastroenterology. Whether through telehealth or in-person appointments, my physician, Kimberly Jannison-Darcey, provided valuable feedback and guidance about my diagnosis and has been dedicated to identifying the best course of treatment through follow on blood work and other procedural diagnostic methods. She thoroughly explains her methodology and is able to relay technical information into laymen’s terms so that I can fully understand my condition and its treatment. I am fully confident that I am being served with my best interest at heart. I strongly recommend Kimberly and the WAGI Gig Harbor office for treatment."
"Dr Agarwal was very detailed regarding my situation asked many questions and seemed very thorough. His nurses and staff do such a great job organizing his patients Thanks so much for your care!!"
"This was hands down the best experience I've had at any medical facility. Dr. Rosenblatt and her team were so kind, informative, reassuring and gentle. I was nervous about my procedure but their calm and caring energy put me at ease. Wonderful experience and I highly recommended her and her team to everyone."
"I’ve been going to Washington Gastroenterology in Tacoma for several decades. Dr. Schwartz was informative, had a very pleasant demeanor, explained the process and provided me with a detailed explanation and report prior to discharge. The facility is awesome and the staff were caring, thorough and helpful. I highly recommend Dr. Schwartz and the team at Washington Gastroenterology."
"Dr. Ganguli was incredibly attentive, taking the time to listen to my concerns. She gave me confidence that I was in the best hands possible. She made me feel comfortable throughout the appointment and I appreciate how easy she was to talk to. The whole experience was excellent. I highly recommend Dr. Ganguli and Washington Gastroenterology."
"I went in for my procedure nervous and very unsure, but doctor Bryan and the staff that helped and surrounded me were very patient and supportive. I have nothing but gratitude and respect for all of them."
"Dr. Philip and his team are top notch. Polite, personable, professional, and knowledgeable. I truly appreciate the level of care here…..different than what I now consider (health care) to be a profit based (instead of a care based) system."
"Dr Daniel Friedman is my latest hero! Had the entire digestive tract scoped & routed and these folks were so kind and professional to me & my wife, I (almost) can't wait to return! Many thanks Dr Friedman"
"Great for experience with Michelle Hendrickx! Michelle spent a great amount of time with me and created a great care plan. Ashley (Ashlee?) is the best, most amazing scheduler i’ve encountered. She was thorough, concise, and extremely personable on the phone going over scheduling and my appointments. She should run the whole thing, Ashley is the all time scheduler! Thank you for making what seemed impossible, possible for me as a patient."
"My first experience, by another office, was very traumatic and unpleasant. I was highly nervous to go again several years later. I demanded another office and doctor. I couldn’t have had a better experience starting with the staff and ending with Dr. Haldernan. They put my fears at ease throughout the procedure. Next time I have to schedule, I will be far more relaxed. And Dr. Haldernan? Please don’t retire too soon, okay?😉"
"The procedure itself went great with no pain. Two complaints and I’m not sure if it relates to doctor or the company. One- no anesthesiologist so I got twilight juice which messes my whole system up for the week- seriously wiped me out. And the nurse told me they don’t know but a week ahead of time when Anes. will be there which is odd to me. Two- I had a lot of anxiety since I’ve never had this procedure or anything else that involves IVs in over twenty years and they left me in a room for an hour with no phone or magazine. That sucked. I was so anxious and uncomfortable and there was nothing to distract me. Also the doctor left without giving me an update with how minor surgery went which was weird and a little off putting. That being said, procedure went well and I had no pain I just didn’t feel all that taken care of at this particular appointment. But everyone else I know has had an awesome experience at this GI center so maybe it was just an off day."
"My prep tech, Brian, was great! As we visited I discovered that he is related to the parents of a couple of my former students. The colonoscopy was quick and painless—the last thing I remember was being told by my anesthesiologist that I’d be “drifting off” in 10 seconds or less. Then I was being awakened in the recovery room. Dr Huang had talked with me before the procedure and he came in and explained the findings before I was wheeled out of Recovery. WAGI staff were excellent in communicating the pre-procedure steps and answering my questions ahead of time as well as following up afterwards. The worst part was having to spend so much time in the bathroom as a result of drinking the seemingly never ending prep solution (it actually didn’t taste too bad) the day before and the morning of my scheduled appointment."
"Easy to establish as a new patient. Easy to find an appointment. Clear instructions and staff on hand to answer questions. Directions were clear, the staff was amazing and it was over in no time."
"The Zoom meeting went great and there was no problems with this session. The nurse was caring and asked valid appropriate questions. My very first appointment was with a doctor with a very strong accent. He was wearing a mask and honestly he had to take it off so I could see his mouth pronouncing the words so I could decipher what he was saying. I have heard many accents and this was a tough one. I formerly taught reading at a school that represented many different students from many countries 27 years. So I have never had a problem. I'm just glad he took off his mask because this helped tremendously. ."
"I travel a long way to see Dr Rosenblatt..She is incredible as a person and doctor! I appreciate her knowledge, bedside manner and personality. I’ll go no where else! 🙏"
"It has been 20 plus years for me and my wife. Continued trust and appreciation for Dr. Kim’s professional knowledge and caring mind for us. My recent colonoscopy procedure last month went well with some findings he could take care of in a timely manner. Great GI doctor for my family and our community."
"Dr. Siddaiah was thorough but concise in explaining things in a way that I could understand. I felt that I was taken seriously and evaluated appropriately. The office and clinic staff were professional and efficient. I would highly recommend this office."
"Dr. Kang is ALWAYS knowledgeable and compassionate in his interaction with me. He cares for the person, as well as the medical issue. My comfort level with his care is beyond high."
"There was minimal wait to see the PA. The facility was clean and the associates were professional and pleasant. The PA took time with me to explain the reasons for my visit. She addressed my issues and clearly explained the plan going forward."
"Professional, sincere, kind, and thorough. Both the doctor and staff were very good at making me feel comfortable and for the clear communication before and after my procedure."
"Professional staff. All wore name tags with professional status. Always introduced themselves with brief explanation of what they were going to do in my care. Explained time line. Asked if any questions. Asked if I was comfortable. 5 star staff."
"What a delight it was to meet Dr. Moussan. A smile and a friendly word, is the best medicine one needs before any procedure, and this gentleman has it in abundance. Beside the fact that he definitely knows what he is doing. Thank you."
"Dr. Mohan is a very pleasant, empathetic and real-speaking doctor who listens well. I appreciate his care a great deal and feel very fortunate to have him looking after my well-being!"
"My procedure apparently went well. However, there was a very crowded basic waiting area: a need for access to a second bathroom, and the sign in waiting area is literally a few feet by the entry door. All the above gives a very bad first impression."
"Excellent attention, they facilitated communication in Spanish, the Dr. was also very attentive to what I told her and very kindly gave her recommendations, very valuable for me that she was Latina and spoke to me in Spanish. Also the girl at the reception was very kind, I highlight that she also spoke Spanish and they helped me a lot. Very high value for me"
"Dr. Agarwal was on time. He listened carefully to my symptoms and concerns. He gave me easy to understand answers and we have a plan to address and solve my issues. I highly recommend him."
"He is a great guy good listner and addressed every concern I had. I left the appointment very happy with the treatment plan we have for bettering my gut health"
"Dr Kang is the best doctor I have ever had! He takes his time with you and makes you feel taken care of. I’ve issues with IBS since I was a teen. He answered all my questions and gave me advises how to overcome my symptoms. He is a very knowledgeable, patient, friendly and easily approachable. I’m so happy I found the right GI Dr and clinic. His staffs are also nice. Highly recommend for GI Dr. 😊"
"I am very satisfied with the medical care provided by Dr. Kim. He spends a quality time to explain in detail to all my questions and concerns. Highly recommend Dr. Kim to my family and friends."
"My experience was good. Dr Parker and the entire team were professional, explained the procedure well, and demonstrated caring and concern for my feelings. I would highly encourage people to have her as their caregiver."
"Honestly it couldn’t be better, everyone was so friendly and respectful. My procedure was smooth and painless. They made sure I was 100% comfortable, I will definitely use this facility in the future and recommend it to others!"
"They are very pleasant and helpful. I like people that you can joke around with and joke back with you. Everyone was in a good mood and were legitimately happy to be there. Great place and all questions were answered easily and professionally. Highly recommend!"
"I was very happy with the doctor that I saw. She was very nice, informative, and had a wonderful demeanor. She put me at ease as she explained a procedure to me. I'd highly recommend her. The scheduler that I saw was very nice and explained how she would get me the quickest and best appointment for me. They were both very caring, and I felt that they truly cared about my health."
"Great experience all the way around. Checkin very smooth. Dr Procaccini very thorough with reviewing my medical concerns. Answered all my questions. Never felt hurried."
"Dr. Jain was very kind, courteous and professional. She took a personal interest in my health and the issues I was having. She earned my trust and confidence."
"The office building was hard to find. Google has it listed as 1/4 mile away any in some bushes. The people were really nice and listened to my needs."
"Nice doctor when we met. Had my procedure and got results that were terrifying to me. No follow up, just a generic letter via email that I am to come back in 2 years for another procedure. I have questions that need answers, and tried getting in touch with Dr. Tan via phone and email. I was sent 2 more letters via email as my answer! This morning I did get a message back from dr. Tan saying yes we will have a follow up and start some kind of treatment. Don't give up when you think you need a follow up. It's important to keep reaching out. Advocate for yourself. Now I will wait for the appointment. I feel much better having a response from Dr. Tan."
"Dr. Darren Schwartz and staff are exceptional, extremely professional and the waiting area is clean and comfortable. Dr. Schwartz provided all the info necessary for my procedure and explained the results in an easy to understand manner. He was punctual and efficient, making me feel like my concerns were truly valued. He followed up after the procedure, and I appreciated the prompt call with the pathology results."
"Doc Friedman and his staff have always been professional and courteous in my health care concerns and made feel like a friend not a patient. They are the best."
"I just love Dr. Tan, and his group. Each one of them made me feel very comfortable and at ease. If you're looking for an awesome gastroenterology, you dont need to look any further. I guarantee you will be 100% satisfied."
"Reception was good and a detailed explanation of the whole procedure and what to expect after the process was given clearly and to the point. It was my first time to do my colonoscopy. The nurses helped me to ease the anxiety and made sure I understood everything that was happening to me at that time. Thanks Dr. Darren and the nurses too."
"Fast, friendly, thorough experience seeing the front desk, the nursing staff, the doctor (Dr Ganguli) and the lab. Always glad for positive, caring experiences in healthcare!"
"I requested a paper to be filled out before you get there and rose told me. I could get it when I got there. I believe it was called a review form. Because I wanted to be prepared for everybody. Everyone else was very nice ."
"Dr Swartz is always very detailed and understands what I’m going through and gives good advice when needed. Cares about you overall as a patient I always feel heard."
"Dr. Moussan and staff were patient and professional. They treated my mother with respect and compassion when giving instructions or explaining upcoming procedures."
"Dr. Barker was so polite and cared about my health. She explained everything on my chart to us she seems very passionate about what she does for a living. Keeping her as a Dr. as long as i can"
"Prompt and courteous. Office’s are clean and everyone seems to work together seamlessly. They got their approval from my insurance within a day and called me the next day to schedule one month out appointment at St Michael’s. Sent paperwork through USPS. Received days later. Totally pleased with my care so far. This is my third visit in 10 years."
"Dr. Kang was very meticulous and thoughtful regarding my particular situation. He studied my chart and took the time to explain how to proceed, which I greatly appreciated. The rest of the staff I interacted with were equally thoughtful and accommodating. I highly recommend Dr. Kang and his team!!"
"This is the BEST place to go in the city!! The entire staff is friendly & helpful. The procedure was on time, and they gave me very detailed instructions, on my discharge. I would highly recommend, Dr. Elizabeth Rosenblatt MD & her staff, for all your Gastroenterology needs!!"
"The entire team was, professional, respectful, and friendly. At each step, I was asked if I had any questions. With the team expanding the process all my questions were already answered."
"Dr. Friedman is the consummate professional who cares about his patients. Staff is great and scheduling is prompt and respectful. I couldn’t recommend a physician or business more highly. Greg Jewell"
"This procedure went smoothe. The frequent communication was very helpful. Getting the 7 day,3, 1 day notifications helped me stay on track with what to do. The team was great. Checking in very personable and respectful of presence and my time. Everyone made sure I was comfortable and knew what was happening at every step during my time there. Anesthesia team did an awesome job. My provider did a great job. They called to check in on me after the procedure. It just felt like they care and not just doing their jobs."
"Dr. Siddaiah is a good guy. I went with my wife to a few of her visits with him and knew he was the one I wanted to do my procedure. Many thanks to him and his team. Robert was a great anesthesiologist. And the nurses were very knowledgeable and kind."
"My experience with Washington Gastroenterology was seamless. They communicated with me prior to my appointment and prepared me fully. Then when the day came, they made me comfortable during the procedure."
"You can communicate with him and he wants to rule everything out so he can get right to the bottom of things and treat the disease you have, not what others have misdiagnosed you with. He is a very nice doctor."
"I recently had an appointment with Dr. Reese,, she was very informative and kind, she will be missed! All of the staff were very kind. A good appointment!"
"Dr. Sugar and his staff are amazing. They greet you with a smile. They have a friendly attitude. Dr. Sugar is kind and knowledgeable. He makes sure you understand what you need to do. Washington Gastroenterology is a safe and friendly place"
"All the nurses and Dr. Ganguli herself were very personable and friendly people, and effective as well - I absolutely recommend them. They found and prevented several life-threatening growths, and I'm grateful for that. My only complaint is with the phone system - the first number I was given to contact (which is a regional number, not Dr. Ganguli's own office, hence I won't reflect it in her otherwise perfect score) puts you on hold for about a minute, then drops the call because "nobody is available" which made it impossible to wait in line to schedule the initial appointment. After two weeks of trying daily, my doctor gave me an alternate number to call, effectively cutting the line, plus referrals to other GI doctors as alternatives. Thus, this phone system could be costing Dr. Ganguli and her staff potential other clients, which would be an absolute shame - they're all superb and deserve all the business they can get. Again, she was absolutely worth the hassle."
"Staff was very friendly and helpful and the procedure was quick, totally painless and no after effects at all I appreciate the aftercare and follow up"
"Dr. Moussa is the greatest. I've never had such an easy colonoscopy and endoscopy. Very gentle, kind, answering all questions. I will use this team always and recommend them to family and friends. Y'all are very special"
"Dr. ;Holderman was chosen as the physician to go to for GI needs. We are a group of ER nurses who through our own experience or people we trust came up with a list of specialty physicians to go to when the need arises for us, our family or friends. He has been our physician for over 25 years."
"Great experience. Nobody wants to have colonoscope. But if you gotta,these folks do it right. Kind, thorough, considerate. Answer questions. As good as you'll find. Highly recommend."
"My visit was awesome! Fast and efficient!! The Dr and staff treated me well and with respect. That is all I can ask. My colonoscopy was scheduled for the end of the month. Looking forward to getting it done. Dr Friedman is the only doc my family goes to when dealing with our Kiesters."
"Was put under for an endoscopy, was still asleep when the doctor came by to tell me how it went. Would be nice if they waited until you were coherent when they come to let you know the details."
"Dr. Doherty is a very kind man and has gained my trust in him. He is genuinely concerned about his patients and their feelings. Would highly recommend him!"
"Exceptional Care and Professionalism: A Review for Dr. Rajesh Manam and Team I recently underwent a procedure with Dr. Rajesh Manam and his entire team, and I cannot praise them enough. From start to finish, everyone was kind, professional, caring, and efficient. They made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process, ensuring I experienced no fear or discomfort. Interestingly, during the procedure, even though I was anesthetized, I was aware of some sensations. I could feel the procedure happening in a subtle way—without pain or full consciousness—but this didn’t bother me, as everything was handled so smoothly and professionally. The procedure was quick, and the care I received was impeccable. I had no complications afterward, and the results were excellent. Dr. Manam and his staff ensured the entire experience was as positive as possible, and I am grateful for their expertise and kindness. I would highly recommend them to anyone seeking medical care. 🐞"
"I had another great office visit. Dr. Philo is wonderful! He and his staff are helpful and kind, and they ensure that I am properly informed about my health and care. I am very grateful for all my healthcare team."
"I am quite happy with Dr. Tan, he is readily available and responsive to my questions. I have a lot of questions. Also was very pleased with being able to schedule an emergency colonoscopy last year and my treatment was great"
"Dr. Gulati is a great doctor, I immediately felt that he cares about me and my well being. He was very thorough in making sure everything was good.Dr Gualti and his staff have always taken excellent care of me. Julie"
"Very much appreciated Matt, the CRNA for his calm demeanor and explanations of his role in my anesthesia. Dr. Parker is so kind and asked the questions I needed to answer for her to proceed. She addressed the referral and my health questionnaire which documented family history of colorectal cancer. She showed concern and care, which was reassuring for me. Highly recommend Dr. Parker and team at WAGI!"
"For a procedure I wasn't looking forward to, everyone was very cordial and professional and it went easier than I imagined it would. Not as big of a deal as it sounds like it is."
"The colonoscopy went without a problem. My only issue was in getting my appointment. Stopped by the front desk last February to make an appointment for my colonoscopy. Made it for April. A few weeks later, I get a call that I need to have a consult with a Dr. before I can make an appointment. Had the consult, which seemed like a waste of my time and the doctor's (this was my 4th colonoscopy). I then find out my colonoscopy won't happen until September. You need to look at the need for a consult for patients who have already had the procedure, perhaps then more timely appointments would be possible."
"Staff very professional,didn’t wait that long,nurse call me in,she’s asked why I was there I told her,then she explain how the test is going to be perform ,she make me very comfortable during the test she wants to make sure I’m ok during the procedure!"
"When I got to the building and then the front desk was a very pleasant experience. The young man was very engaging and pleasant. I hope to always deal with him when I visit the office again."
"My first appointment at this location and with Dr Sugar. This was not my first colonscopy, yet this experience was far superior than past procedures. Was very well taken care of, everything was explained in detail, was completely at ease. Highly recommend this location with Dr. Sugar"
"Excellent medical attention from the front desk to medical procedure itself. Everyone very professional with my best interest at heart. Dr Parker was outstanding along with her assistants."
"I have had colonoscopies at this clinic site with another medical provider; my most recent experience was with Dr. Siddaiah. Unlike my other experiences where I had a pre-procedure appointments and saw the provider directly post-procedure, my only contact with Dr. Siddaiah was limited to a very brief encounter in the procedure room before the colonoscopy. I did not meet or see him following the procedure and received my results from the nurse. I am grateful that the outcome of the procedure was good; perhaps this was the reason for the nurse’s report and instructions (very thorough and complete) and not from the doctor. I also experienced dysphasia for a couple of hours following the colonoscopy. I was able to speak to a nurse and Dr. Siddaiah both within an hour from my call to report this condition. While the exact reason for the dysphasia is not known, it may have been a side effect from the anesthesia. I will be noting this in my medical records in the future. While I believe that the colonoscopy was completed with medical expertise, I would have appreciated more contact with Dr. Siddaiah for pre and post procedure information."
"Everything was smooth from the moment I walked in until the moment I left. The check in process was easy and the all the staff were polite ( and funny) and thorough when asking background questions. I was very nervous but they instantly put me at ease. Recommended to my son-in-law who had a similar experience and gave rave reviews as well. I don't really like doctors as I feel they are always trying to get you out asap without really listening to you but Dr. Holderman was polite, took the time to make you feel comfortable , and really listened before he gave honest responses. I can't say I like doctors, but I definitely appreciate and like Dr. Holderman"
"Dr. Siddaiah took time to explain my upcoming procedure and allay some of my worries and concerns. I feel I am in excellent hands and my procedure will be successful."
"Good day, that day I met Doctor Justin Chapin, he treated me very well, he was very helpful, and thank you Washington Gastroenterology Division Health Division Team…I Love you All"
"I have always loved the care and the information given to me through Washington G.I.. Dr. Rosenblatt is the most amazing doctor I’ve ever had for my G.I. issues."
"For something so sensitive, it was amazingly comfortable. The entire process was much easier than days if old! Buy the clensing package-it is easy to swallow-literally!"
"Receptionist and MA were exemplary in professionalism and courtesy. Dr Schwarz was his normal awesome self professionally and with "bedside manner" and my comfort level in the care is so high that I'm willing to pay that dang bridge toll to keep him as my provider. 😁"
"Dr. Philo and his crew were amazing! It was my first colonoscopy screening ever and they all made me feel at ease and comfortable! Knowledgeable, respectful, competent, kind and caring is what I’d describe the team! Awesome job!"
"Absolutely outstanding. I've had 3 or 4 colonoscopies now all with different providers at different locations and Dr. Kang was so incredibly kind. The most comfortable experience I have ever had when dealing with this stuff. I highly highly recommend seeing Dr. Kang and his team."
"The team at WaGi took the best care of me from check in until check out. I felt like they were advocating for my health and I could tell Dr. Schwartz was well versed in my medical history to ensure I had the follow-up care I needed. Overall they made me feel at ease, relaxed, with minimal stress for what normally is an unpleasant process."
"I’ve been going to Dr Holderman since 2007. Although he is highly requested & very busy, when I am able to get in to see him he is always very personal, calm, focused on only me & the issue at hand. Their offices are very nice as well."
"I was very nervous coming to this clinic, but all the providers were so kind to me and answered all my concerns that I was not worried when it was my time for the procedure. Thanks to all of the staff members!"
"I highly recommend Dr. Jain for gastrointestinal (GI) procedures and issues! She cares about her patients and is literally a life saver. For the last 20 years she has been my doctor for colonoscopies. She has removed many polyps in my colon that if left unchecked could have become cancerous. At the end of August I saw her for my heartburn & coughing issues. She recommended she performed an endoscopy. The results showed I had small hiatl hernia as well as a polyp in my duodenum. The polyp biopsy results came back precancerous. Even though Dr. Jain was booked months out, she and her staff figured out a time that she could remove the polyp just a few days after the diagnosis. Dr. Jain is amazing. And her whole team of medical personnel, staff and administrators are wonderful."
"Dr Sugar and all the staff are exceptional. They kept me informed at every step. Everyone is kind and have excellent bedside manors. Follow the prep and they will do the rest to keep you healthy."
"As good an experience as you could ask for considering the situation. Dr. Doherty and his team were kind, thorough and clear about the process and results."
"Very welcoming, professional, timely and well worth my time to be seen be Dr. Siddaiah last week. I'm very pleased with my first impressions. He is very thorough."
"Very thorough colon prep given by GI doctor. Very attentive and caring staff from start to finish. Called to check in on me after the weekend like they said they would. Dr. Shaily Jain is outstanding and so is her staff. Thank you for taking such great care of me. I highly recommend Shaily and her team at WA Gastroenterology."
"Washington Gastrology is one very well organized service provider. The process and procedure went exactly as timed and planned. Each individual was very thorough in their explanations and very knowledgeable and professional in their roles. If you have to have it... this the place!"
"I’ve been going to Dr Siddaiah at Silverdale Gastroenterology for about 21 years and I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else. His staff is outstanding. He is very knowledgeable and extremely comforting during procedures. Highly recommend!"
"Dr. Doherty and his team is the best. He really has good bedside manners and is a very nice person not just a doctor but as a person!!! I would recommend him to anyone that needs gastrolgy needs over any doctor.. Him and Dr. Stephen Buckley out of Hattiesburg Mississippi has been the best 2 gastrolist that I have ever seen.. If every Doctor could be like these two it would be a nice world!!! And I Thank his team to can't leave them out!!!"
"No one wants to have a colonoscopy but WA GI, Dr. Philo and staff made it as positive an experience as possible! I appreciated receiving instructions along the way before the procedure so that I would come prepared. Check-in was smooth, staff explained what they were doing. All very professional and caring. Dr. Philo spent time with me explaining the process before and visited me after the procedure to discuss findings. Recovery was uneventful. Staff assured I was stable before discharge!"
"Had a very positive experience with Dr. Siddaiah. He possesses an ability not often seen by our medical practitioners…and that is to combine a professional, wise demeanor with a personable, kind and compassionate approach."
"This was my first interaction with Dr Moussan & his staff. Very impressed with with the care & professionalism they showed during the entire procedure. Thanks to all of you. Cliff Robinson."
"Dr. Lai performed both my endoscopy and colonoscopy. He was extremely kind and patient, taking the time to thoroughly and patiently answer all of my questions in detail. His calm demeanor and friendly attitude helped ease my anxiety, making the entire experience much more comfortable. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a caring and professional doctor."
"A great experience. The staff made it fun .if I had to do it again I would highly recommend them.they made it fast and easy.i was nervous. Great job team!!"
"I am very happy with most of my experience with WaGii. But, I would have liked to have been warned that the Physical therapist that I was referred to was private pay only. No insurance taken"
"9/2024 - I met Dr. Doherty just recently. He was attentive and compassionate. He listened to me tell him a complicated history of abdominal pain. I felt at ease and didn't feel rushed. The best though was him actually explaining why he wanted more scans and what "we" were looking for. That team approach is what I look for. He'll be my permanent GI doctor from now on."
"My appointment went well, the staff was polite and friendly I didn’t have to wait long to see the doctor. He took the time to review my file and we decided I would call if I needed a follow up."
"Staff is very friendly, communicative and thorough. They’re very efficient and there’s little to no time spent waiting. Dr Friedman is extremely knowledgable and is current on the latest data regarding certain medications - updated me on my concerns that were from outdated studies. Great experience, very nice to leave without any lingering doubts or questions"
"Just completed my third adventure with a colonoscopy at Washington GI (The Waldron Center) with Dr Donner and staff and have to say while I don't exactly look forward to my next one in 7 yrs I certainly don't, in any way, dread it either. Frankly the most painful part was watching the video they send multiple messages to watch about "how to make the prep easier". I got to the point I wanted to open my own vein. The presenter (a GI doc from Dartmouth) was condescending and irritating and never actually got around to any useful information. The information and instruction that comes with your prep kit and the center are far superior and given how wonderful the staff is there I am quite sure a simple phone call to them would get you an answer to any concerns. The Waldron center is exceptionally comfortable for both patient and the 'driver' waiting for you. The theme is classic films and they have a mini theater with films running and their pre-op rooms have old movie themes. Both times I was started out in the "Sound of Music" room. The mural on the wall is Julie Andrews , arms spread in the field of grass where she is singing "The hills are alive with the sound of music". Am I the only one that finds this hysterically funny given I was there for a colonoscopy and my colon would be filled with air by the end of the procedure and indeed the hills would be alive with the sound of music? Every single member of the staff was warm, welcoming and I felt very competent (As an RN I can be pretty critical of less than excellent care and I know the difference between fluff and actual care). So, overall SIX stars from me!"
"The Dr was very personable with me, he covered all my concerns and helped me make a plan which come to find out was my problem. So I can't say enough good things about Dr Bryan Doherty!"
"I thought it would take months to get an appointment and it didn't. The staff was very caring and kind and helped to put my mind at ease. The doctor was extremely professional, confident, and informative which allowed me to relax and trust he and his team at the peak of my anxiety over the procedures. I don't remember closing my eyes, but woke up, what seemed like a minute later, in recovery. The doctor shared his overall observations right away which was great. Ask for portal information before you leave. I didn't and a request option is not available online."
"Dr Parker is very easy to talk to and she doesn’t use to many medical terminology! Straight forward information and recommendations. She has made my life so much better after seeing her!"
"SCARED!!! Once I arrived that all went away. Each individual person I met was amazing. DR DONNER was very nice and made the whole experience quick and painless. It was important to go and more importantly it was NOT SCARY!!! Thank you"
"My experience with Dr. Selinger was positive. She is pleasant and offered several opportunities for questions before and after procedure. The staff were also kind and efficient which made the experience bearable."
"Getting an appointment took months to get. I needed to switch my care from Swedish to Overlake. Enjoyed my doctor and hope making a appointment will be easier in future"
"Great staff.... Thank you to Sarah who helped to get us right in.... And for the appointment with Kimberly Darcy... Thank you for your Care and suggestion :-)"
"I have been a patient of Dr Rees-Lui for nearly 20 years and she has a friendly, kind demeanor and her expertise and professionalism as a gastroenterologist is very apparent! Also, her clinical staff are so kind and helpful. I strongly recommend Dr Rees-Lui and WA Gastroenterology!"
"My deepest gratitude goes out to Dr. Siddaiah for his incredible skills in handling my GI issues. His detailed questioning of all considerations related to my gallbladder and pancreas really helped alleviate anxiety for me. He’s a terrific champion for those experiencing abdominal related concerns. I’d also like to thank Dr. Parker and Precious from the same practice for all their unwavering support in this journey."
"My interaction with over 90% of the folks at Washington gastrology was great. Several of their physicians assistants were the ones that I interacted with. Best.. I have to admit that I will not return because of the physician that was assigned to my case. I'm sure for basic care he's fine but he never did figure out what my issue was and I had to go elsewhere. This was after over 2 years of coming to see them."
"Dr got me back on track with an Rx. I'm on a auto refill program with Sr Low cost Pharm. and did not check on why a med wasn't refilled. Dr is very good at caring for my physical needs."
"I Love this office and the people that work here... I have the best Doctor ever Dr. Justin Chapin. I don't know what I would do without you. Thank you for saving my life."
"The office is friendly and has a nice setting. Staff are friendly and helpful. They answer any questions you have and explain what was done after. I had an endoscopy so I trusted the doctor and his staff. All is good."
"Dr. Holderman is a calm and very reassuring doctor. He listens and answers your questions carefully and the procedure is over before you know it. His team of caregivers are highly professional, thoughtful and experts in each of their jobs. I've been with them for about twenty years and give them extremely high marks. (A very picky paitent!)"
"I saw Dr. Mohan for my first colonoscopy, I was pretty nervous. I followed the instructions from the clinic, endured the two days of prep. Everything was great once I arrived at the office, everyone was very nice and competent, it couldn't have gone smoother. Dr. Mohan was very nice and answered all my questions, I appreciated it very much. I won't be nervous for my next one in a ten years, definitely going back to the same place."
"My colonoscopy experience with Dr. Yap and his office was perfect from start to finish. Due to my age I’ll be needing others in the future- because of this amazing experience it has relieved any future worries or concerns. I can relax and rest for those times to come. Thank you, ALL!!"
"Dr Doherty was kind and listened to my issue. He was very helpful with a recommended treatment plan. Im so grateful that he was able to see we and schedule a follow up. It’s very hard to get into any Dr in Kitsap Co because we are so short on providers. Thank you Dr Doherty"
"Everyone from start to finish were kind, cheery, professional and make the colonoscopy process seamless. Everyone truly make patients feel valued and heard. So very grateful for Dr. HOLDERMAN and all his staff! My nurse anesthetist was super. Thanks everyone!"
