Gastroenterologist - Cincinnati, OH

"Fabulous personality. Made an unpleasant business easy to deal with. Instant relief and recovery! Had four bandings using the patented and proprietary CRH O`Regan System for the treatment of hemorrhoids in fall of 2011. http://www.crhsystem.com/ Walked out feeling much better. No down time! Lasted for 6 years (going back this week)."

"Best physician I have ever had. Patient, listens well, consistently working to find both a diagnosis and solution, even when they are elusive. Her follow up is outstanding, and overall care makes it clear that patient well being is why she became an MD."

"This was the third procedure that Dr. Max has done for me and I have had no complications from this. He is very caring and answers all questions and gives clear explanations. "

"Dr. Schoech is very good at explaining what is going on and how we will monitor the disease to see if it is progressing. He is thorough in checking for symptoms and scheduling tests to make sure things are still in order. He is easy to talk to and explains things so I can understand it. Very good doctor! I'm glad he's on my side."

"Was referred by my GP. Took 6 wks to get appt.. and was hoping for answers as to what was causing my sudden severe abdominal pain and change of stool. What a total waste of my time! I might as well have been talking to a court stenographer, as all Dr. Wadhwa did was face her computer (facing a wall not me) and type away as I dictated what she should have already known from my case file from my previous doctor and from the form the Cleveland Clinic had sent (which her office verified they had received all prior to my visit). She just asked me vague, open ended questions - Why are you here?, Why did you have a Cat scan?(uh, I'm just the patient, that's what you should be able to tell me!). She treated me like I was there for a routine visit and made no reference to any of my ailments or complaints. I guess she was too busy typing to comprehend what I was really saying. When I asked for a stool analysis to be done, she wrote up a request, but I later found it was for the wrong test - for analysis for c-diff from diarrhea, yet I never had diarrhea - (and the lab said c-diff bacteria would be all they would be able to look for based on the test order she had written). After about 10 -15 min. max. with her, she then handed me a paper stating thanks for coming with no patient instructions or follow up visit. When I asked about a follow-up appt., she kind of shrugged me off and said something along the lines of, "lets wait and see what the stool test shows and go from there" Needless to say, I didn't have the stool test for c-diff from diarrhea done, as I never had diarrhea. Nor did I return to Cleveland Clinic, or ever would return or recommend their gastroenterologists. And for this wasteful, meaningless little visit, they still charged nearly $700! BTW - I ended up getting worse and was eventually rushed to the hospital (not Cleveland Clinic) and admitted for 4 days - I was diagnosed with having diverticulitis that had abscessed. "
