Does not explain anything. Performs tests and procedures without informing patient what the reason is or what he is trying to accomplish. I had a colonoscopy and he was late for the procedure even though it was the first appointment of the day. His office opens at 9 AM but I was told to be there at 8:40 AM and had to wait 20 minutes for the office to open. When I complained to his staff, I was told "Oh It's Friday a nice fall day" brushing me off. After an endoscopy, he didn't explain what I should do to mitigate the recurrence of my H.pylori bacterial infection. Did not recommend what I should do regarding my diet. He charged me an office visit for a phone call to tell me my urea breath test was negative. He's a rip off.
