Had a throat scope done there. Super nice staff. Very compassionate and answered any questions I had. I woke up not even knowing they started and I was out the door. I highly recommend this place for anyone.

The staff and physicians were very caring and efficient. Everything went smoothly as it has every time I've had a procedure at Blair Gastroenterology Associates.

The prep as anyone who has had a colonoscopy knows is the hard part. All the staff treated me respectfully and kindly. In a nutshell they treated me like I would want to be treated. Thank You Dr. Patel and All Staff involved with my procedure.

Worst experience I have ever had with a specialist. The doctor never once examined my stomach, listened to my bowel sounds, and palpated my abdomen. Their billing is a mess, they keep sending bills months after seeing them and it feels endless. The PA put me in a specific diet and medicine but did not spend a minute explaining to me why and did not listen to my concerns. Seem overworked but also did not solve any single one of my problems for why I came.

Colonoscopy's are not the most pleasant. BUT Blair Gastro makes the process A ONE. I was in and out of there in no time. Feel great. And everyone were so friendly! Thank you for all you do. You're why I won't go anywhere else!

A most pleasant experience from scheduling to post procedure follow up. Through and through. They treat you like gold. These guys are professional and the best at what they do. My opinion.

My appointment went very smoothly, I checked in and the front end was VERY efficient. The Nurse that greeted me and took me back was thorough and the Dr. was just as attentive. Looking forward to having them help me out with some ongoing issues.

Procedure was typical. But Now taking me for every dollar they can get. I'm into it for thousands now. Unfortunately have to go to Attorney General's office for seemingly fraudulent charges. I wouldn't have had the procedure knowing I could not afford it. My tip; don't trust what is told that you will be bill beyond your insurance. Definitely not up front. How disappointing getting robbed by a provider
