Gastroenterologists - Lansdowne, VA

"I was trying to get an appointment with Dr Gill as I was diagnosed with esophageal diverticum. The first question asked was my insurance and I said I have both MEDICARE and AETNA World Bank. Immediately they told me they can refer me to another doctor as they don’t accept Medicare. I told them that I will get preauthotization from AETNA World Bank to ensure they won’t need to go to MEDICARE. The lady insisted that I go to another doctor. Besides I would not be seeing the doctor as they told me only the PA can see me as Dr Gill would be availabile only in December. This is so unethical that the practice would not entertain me just because I have MEDICARE! AETNA World Bank has issued me a letter that guarantees full payment to any doctors I have! Soooo. UNETHICAL! I thought doctors should first ensure the health of patients before thinking of monetary returns! This practice is PROFIT MAKING not in service of its patients. I wonder if Dr Gill is aware of this. I have to write this review with my first attempt to get an appointment in the office of Dr. Satinder Gill! "

"We have been going here for years but something changed in the last few years. They don't answer their phones, they never return calls or respond to email messages. I have had to go to another practice just to get my medicine refilled. You have to walk in to make appointments because you can't get anyone to ever answer the phone. Appointments are being scheduled 6 months out and after waiting months was told on the day of the appointment that they no longer accept our insurance (which was not true) We are done with this practice!"
