Dr. Share is so wonderful. Such a rare find to find a doctor in this field who cares so much for his patients. I loved that educated me on my condition, took the time to really ask questions about what I had tried on my own and gave me the best tips for resolution of my issues. I felt so much relief after seeing him. He is a true find!!! read more

I've had great experiences with Dr. Share. I've had two colonoscopies with him years apart. I found him to be kind, caring, skilled and with a great personality that lightens the mood when most of us would rather be doing anything else! He was on time, it went quickly, the operating room was immaculate and I felt extremely well cared for. I honestly can't think of anything they could have done better. read more

Dr. Share will be the first to tell you that he gives the best colonoscopy. Having the opportunity to compare to other Dr.'s I have now experienced the colonoscopy procedure with.....I do not agree. As Dr. Share wheeled me into my procedure I didn't notice his playlist was playing "Stairway to to Heaven" by Led Zeppelin in his OR. But he tried to make a joke, smiled and said, Stairway to Heaven as he wheeled me into the surgery centers OR.. Not funny to me at all. A little uneasy about the procedure, I felt his attempt to be funny was not funny to me. His scheduling of procedures is never on time and you are left waiting while you are not allowed to drink anything. During my husband's pre-op he sneaked him an ice chip as he was waiting an hour past his scheduled time. His surgery center charges for parking and my current (Cedars DR.) offers validation. ( Not a big deal but I'd rather keep my $20.) Also if you want to see him be prepared for an UPCHARGE of $900 to be a preferred client. That is what his bottom line when I really needed to see a DR. I found a more caring Dr. after that... I wish him the best but I would never go back to him. read more

I was a patient in the past but hadn't been there in a few years and they wanted a $750 administration fee which they said was to update my records. Total money grad. I will never go to him again read more

Edward Share, MD - Dr. Edward Share, a Gastroenterologist Hall of Fame Doctor... Dr. Share's surgery has helped me so much. Thank You. - Gastroenterologist Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I'm having the worst experience ever. My primary care physician referred me to Dr. Share's office for a colonoscopy over two weeks ago, but I've been unsuccessful in scheduling an appointment with this office. I've not been called back and was even yelled at and talked over by a very rude young lady. I've left countless messages for his PA (Crystal) who has yet to call me back. I spoke with her once whereby she requested I email her my vital documents (insurance card and license). After sending her everything I called again and she asked me to call her back the following day after 2 pm. I did, but never got her on the phone. I spoke with another person at the front desk and instead of understanding my frustration, she yelled at me and told me that they don't always have time because the office is busy and Crystal is the only one who can schedule my colonoscopy. I think she only comes in during the evening a few days a week. Helen was also dismissive, rude, told me to call back, and not much help at all. I've called again and again. That being said, I called again this evening around 3 pm and left another voice mail for Crystal. Although I don't think she works on Tuesdays, she has never called me back. I've expressed my need to get this done as soon as possible as I leave town soon to go on location for work. The phone staff is less than professional and as a patient seeking medical treatment, being yelled at and talked over is quite disheartening. I was also told by one of the ladies that she would have Dr. Share call me, but I've yet to hear from him. Again, two weeks have come and gone !!! Must be nice to have so many patients that you don't feel the need to return calls and hold each patient with understanding and high regard. All I can say is thank GOD my colonoscopy is routine and I'm not in dire need to see Dr. Share. Today, I called the office of my primary care physician and told them that I've had no luck with Dr. Share's office. His assistant got back to me right away and has assured me that I'll another referral in my medical portal tomorrow. My experience with the women handling Dr. Share's phone is horrible and disappointing In a word, I would describe it as disgusting. read more

Nice guy. He performed my procedure out of the Linden Surgery Center and they were all very nice as well. However, my insurance provided anesthesia and Dr. Share told me they didn't. He told me they did some "other thing" that was terribly uncomfortably. Made it sound like 3rd world country kinda stuff... So I coaxed into paying pay out-of-pocket for a more expensive version of anesthesia. I wish I had just gone with the one insurance covered, but oh well. His secretary is very difficult to deal with. But he was sweet? And I didn't die... so I guess that counts. read more

I've suffered from SIBO for years & have seen a variety of Drs seeking some kind of long term solution. Thank god my wonderful internist, Dr Michelle Israel referred me to him. He's come up with a fantastic treatment plan. I've not had an outbreak in months. Please try him. And as a bonus, he's got a fabulous bedside manner, funny, warm, a mensch. read more

You can not do better than Dr. Share if you are in need of a gastroenterologist. I was terrified of my Colonoscopy/Endoscopy last week, and it was really a breeze. Dr. Share called me the night before to check on me and Helen is so kind and compassionate and really helped clam my fears. My father is a Cardiologist and Dr. Share is his doctor of choice, which ups the ante a bit as well. Spaulding Triangle Surgery Center was amazing. The staff was so kind as was the nurse and anesthesiologist. As horrible as the idea sounded to me, it turned out to be a fantastic experience and all thanks to Dr. Share. I would recommend him to anyone if you are looking for a resolution to your gastric issues or if you just need to do your preventative colonoscopy. Thank you Dr. Share and Helen for everything!!! As an update to my review a friend and I have done a short video about getting your colonoscopy screening in an attempt to mitigate your fears, follow this link to watch it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-Ir87BJ2-8&lc=z22xtjizkvzizjk2tacdp432b5nnityppmr3qqhstyhw03c010c read more

You'll get a tummy ache or worse when dealing with the staff at this apparently busy gastroenterology and hepatology office with 5 doctors in the practice. Dr. Share is a great diagnostician, and he helped me with my GERD and other issues, but the recent interaction I had with members of his support staff was HORRIBLE! I had to send 2 emails, and nearly a dozen calls, over the span of a week and half to light a fire under Raquel's chair in medical records to get my medical history. Unfortunately, Dr. Share doesn't accept my tier of Aetna medical insurance, and if he is charging an administrative fee of $400 as stated by an earlier reviewer, it's ridiculous. Anyways, I have to see another GI doctor. And, bring all my previous medical records from Dr. Share. When you call the office, it's a round robin of people answering. They are pretty abrupt and answer "Doctor's office" without stating the doctor's name. So I was guessing that I was calling Dr. Share's office - there are 5 at this practice. And they act like you're the moron when you're not sure whose office you've reached. Read on if you want to see what you might endure to get medical records sent to you. Oh, and in the process, I received a form that had Dr. Benjamin Basseri's name on it, a doctor I have never seen, and I received the medical records of someone who was a patient of Dr. Woolf's. ***************************************************** CALL 1: I reached Raquel in person but was told "our system is down, I'll call you later to email the Records Release Authorization form tomorrow". Tomorrow never came. CALL 2: "Hi, remember me? I still need the form." Email shows up later that day, with a very confusing and outdated form that has Dr. Benjamin Basseri, MD's name at the top of it. I email Raquel back, asking for clarity on the form, she does not return my email. Oh, and I have to FAX it back. Who faxes anymore???!! CALL 3: I am transferred to Raquel's voicemail, where I leave a message "Please help me with this form". No return call. So I email her again. CALLS 4, 5, and 6: multiple voicemails to Raquel. No return calls. No return email. CALL 7: "Hi Raquel, I'm just guessing at how to fill out the form, I crossed out Dr. Basseri's name and put Dr. Share's name on the form, and wrote additional notes, and faxed to you, let me know if it's sufficient". No return call. CALL 8: I reach a nice young man who says he's in medical records. I tell him that Raquel will not return my calls. Can he help me regarding medical records? I tell him that I faxed a form back, and that I am "hoping" Raquel will act on it. CALL 9: SOMEONE PLEASE FAX MY RECORDS TO ME. I get transferred to R's voicemail again. I leave another message. CALL 10: HELLO ... ANYONE? A LIVE PERSON?! The nice young man has answered the phone again, takes pity on me and I reach Raquel in person. I tell her that I REALLY NEED THE RECORDS to bring with me to my new GI doctor in a few days. I remind her that I have been reaching out to her for days! FINALLY! My records are faxed over, along with the records of some young lady with lyme disease who is a patient of Dr. Woolf's. Ummm HIPAA violation anyone???!! CALL 11: I email AND call Raquel to let her know that she inadvertently included a young lady's medical records in the fax to me, and that she might want to go back and fix that. So frustrating! And, I hope that Dr. Woolf's patient with lyme disease doesn't have to go through the medical rat maze of calls and emails that I had to with this office. read more

OK, I'll keep this short, because the subject's a little unpleasant and probably of limited interest on this site, but: I share a couple of things in common with the man some call "president" - one of them being a procedure that is usually required of men 50 years and older, but sometimes, if you have certain symptoms, the medical establishment may tell you that you oughta have this procedure if you know what's good for you. I'll skip all the gory details, and the dumb jokes about alien anal probes and say only this: Dr. Share was proactive, professional, and he recommended a certain kind of anesthesia that I highly recommend, even though my insurance doesn't usually cover it. Suffice it to say, I was really dreading this procedure, but what happened was, after doing all the stuff one has to do to prepare for this procedure, and figuring out the parking, and sitting in a waiting room with equally unhappy people, I found myself getting prepared by a sympathetic staff, and a pretty jolly, and funny anesthesiologist. They put an IV in my arm and started wheeling me out, and I closed my eyes. A moment later, I opened them, and was alarmed to find myself alone. I saw a nurse, and told her, "I think I'm awake, and I probably shouldn't be, because I think they just gave me the anesthesia." She told me I was done - it was over an hour later. I had absolutely no sense of time passing. Sweet! read more

Dr Share is an excellent physician. I have been living with ulcerative colitis for 18 years. What separates Dr Share from his peers (generalization) is that he reviews your condition with a pragmatic and achievable course of treatment that considers all variables that are important to a patient. For example, quality of life treatment - surgery can be a drastic measure. Side effects of drugs - short term and long term risks. Cost - insurance may not cover certain medications and would not be a sustainable path to remission. Dr Share spends a significant amount of time with me during my appointments. I do not feel rushed and I respect that he has to take a phone call from time-to-time to attend to urgent matters. I would expect the same from him if I needed his counsel during a flare-up. I have had several great GIs over the period of time I have lived with colitis and I wholeheartedly recommend Dr Share to anyone in need of care or a consultation. His assistant Helen works late into the evening to ensure medications are filled and follow-ups are completed. She is wonderful and I trust her with delivery of all of my communications to Dr. Share. Lastly, in the last couple years Dr Share began charging an annual fee to his patients. Given the state of our healthcare system, I completely understand his reasoning for the charge and feel it is small cost in the larger view of life that I have a competent, reliable, and realistic physician overseeing a potentially very serious disease. I hope this review is helpful to you... read more

I was having a terrible problem of not being able to swallow food. I needed to have a lot of liquid nearby every time I had a meal. Sometimes, food would get stuck and I couldn't even swallow water until the food finally made it's way down. Eating wasn't pleasant for me...actually it began to become quite terrifying, and I would get very anxious when something got stuck. Finally I contacted a friend of mine who works at Cedars to ask for a referral. She could not recommend Dr. Share more highly (he had helped her mother with a different issue, but many other doctor's had not been able to help her mom). I went into Dr. Share's office expecting a very unpleasant examination...after all, we were talking about food getting stuck in my esophagus. I gave him a detailed description of my issue and he immediately told me that it was one of two issues. Both easily fixed. It did require an endscopic procedure down my esophagus, but I didn't care. I would do just about anything to fix this problem. He has a great system in place. He had a facility to do the procedure, and a trusted Anesthesiologist. I made a appointment for the next week. (BTW, he uses a much less expensive facility than a hospital to save his clients money, and the place was great). When I arrived at the medical facility, I checked in and waited to be called. I was pretty nervous. Once I was prepped and waiting, Dr. Share came to my bedside with the Anesthesiologist to answer any questions that I may have. He answered them clearly and gave me a lot of peace of mind. After the procedure, he came back to my bedside while I was in recovery to let me know how things went. He showed me pictures of my esophagus, and explained what he had done. He said that I would notice an improvement in swallowing immediately, and I did. His bedside manner was compassionate and professional. As it turned out, he was right. It was one of the two issues that he thought...eosinophilic esophagitis. It has been about 10 months since I had it done and couldn't be happier. I only wish that I would have done this before to save me a lot of unpleasant meals. read more

I think Dr. Share is great. He takes a LOT of time with you, meaning you never feel rushed. He explains the pros and cons, and more than once has given me information that meant less procedures for me (and less money for him). The negative reviews seem strange to me... I've never seen anything in Dr. Share that even approaches hubris, or self-importance, or ego. I enjoy my time with him as much as one can considering where his fingers are. read more

By the very nature of the circumstances, I was prepared for an unpleasant experience when I came to Dr. Share's office. His sense of humor, his perceptive observations, and his solid professional skills trumped any unpleasantness. When I left after my last visit I was smiling and feeling great. I am not hoping for a repeat visit anytime soon but I can unequivocally recommend Dr. Share to anyone needing a GI doctor. I got to see Dr. Share in action in the office and in surgery (my own, til the general kicked in) and he's a pro. If you need a gut doc or a butt doc, this is your man. PS the address posted here is incorrect, he's in Suite 1050E. read more

I've been to numerous gastros and he is the only one that has been helpful medically. He knew exactly what I needed- no drama at all. He is also very good at working with insurance companies when they give you a run around and want ridiculous preapprovals. His assistant Helen is awesome. Aside from being a good doctor, he has a great sense of humor, and I always leave his office laughing. Recommended! read more

1) If he's giving you a discounted negotiated rate get it in writing. After paying in cash for my two visits at the negotiated rate, several months later I got a bill for over $700 that I'm now on the hook to pay. 2) Helen, his assistant, is as much a pain in the ass as my microscopic colitis was, and ultimately the reason I didn't complete a diagnosis or treatment with Dr Share. She's a roadblock to healthcare and it's strange she even has this job. She didn't call in scripts, she didn't give messages to the doctor for follow up questions, she didn't do any of the prior authorization paperwork for insurance companies but also didn't bother to tell me she just didn't want to do that sort of thing, so left me hanging without treatment and no understanding as to what the damn holdup was...and so on and so forth. And she's got a terrible personality on the phone, which isn't surprising, I suppose. She seems to really hate her job and patients. I'd rather deal with the DMV than have to deal with her attitude again. 3) He's a nice guy and seems to be an ok Gastroenterologist although he kept telling me I needed psyllium husk when, in fact, I had colitis, and psyllium husk didn't do me any good. I ended up going somewhere else where the negotiated rate was honored, my diagnosis confirmed, a logical treatment plan implemented by staff who seemed to be interested in dealing with sick humans and also doing the requirements of the job with decency, humor, and respect for their patients - and my condition is now managed. Between the Helen nightmare and the lack of concrete diagnosis nightmare and the billing nightmare I really wish I'd just never gone to this doctor. Hugely expensive waste of time, money, and energy. read more

I have had the pleasure of being a patient of Dr. Share - he spent a lot of time with me and diagnosed me when no one else could. He is very detailed and caring. His assistant, Helen, was very nice and pleasant and took care of all the administrative part of my visit. I don't know what the other "yelper's are talking about". Helen and Dr. Share are great. If you need a gastroenterologist, make sure you see Dr. Share read more

Dr. Share is one of the most knowledgeable gastroenterologist I've ever seen. And believe me, I've seen many. His bedside manner is what every doctor should take lessons from. He's just a wonderful person. And his assistant Helen is just as wonderful. Like him, she is also very kind and compassionate. He takes you to his beautiful office with a huge wooden desk where you tell him all your gut problems in a comfortable setting. He is a very good listener. He never, never rushed me. He answered all my questions and he never scared me with his answers, even though I had some pretty scary issues. He will address all your questions because his highest priority is to help his patients. Listen to this doctor. He knows his practice. If you're looking for someone to do a colonoscopy, look no further. He's the best. I should know, since I've had several colonoscopies done by other gastroenterologists due to my digestive issues. And you'll get the test results as soon as he gets them. He knows that his patients can be very stressed out over the results. Even when he is out of town, he checks in with his assistant Helen all the time. The only down side is he practices at Cedar Sinai, which is not my favorite hospital. That said, his office is a major gastroenterology group that has a HUGE clean office with a ton of comfortable chairs. And there's a nice TV you can watch while you're waiting. Of course the examining rooms as all very clean with State of the Art equipment. They even have a blood drawing lab with a nurse who is very hygienic and NO PAIN! The rest of the staff are all very nice as well. They'll even get you some nice fresh drinking water if you ask for it. And they do it right away. I hope Dr. Share will never retire. He is irreplaceable. read more

Dr. Share is the bomb! I recently had a colonoscopy done and he is so thorough in how he preps and has you prepped that you are blessed to have a man like this on the job. Don't fuck up the prep though or he'll rip your head clear off your body (he has a little temper but I don't care cause he's the man!). Dr. Share (and i love this guy) is very anal about his job, a true perfectionist who you certainly want for the job. read more

Last summer I ended up in Emergency at Cedars for a ruptured appendix, and was being misdiagnosed for almost 24 hrs. My referring doctor sent Dr. Share to read my MRI and he diagnosed me immediately. I really believe I am alive today because of him. Then he visited me in the hospital, even though he wasn't my doctor. Some time later, I was not feeling comfortable in one of the surgical areas, and went to him to get a second opinion. He was kind, patient and showed me the hospital reports etc. He allayed my fears in such a professional way. Seven months after my surgery he called to follow-up on my recovery. Is it any wonder that I no longer fear getting a colonoscopy when I finally need one? I look forward to seeing Dr. Share again. read more

I liked Dr. Share immensely the moment we met. He's smart, thorough and has warm and comforting demeanor (and a great sense of humor), which makes him instantly easy to talk to. You can't fake his level of empathy and concern. My whole experience with Dr. Share was terrific and I've recommended him to several of my friends. read more

I was referred to Dr. Share by my oncologist at Cedars. I've been under his care for the last 7 years. His insight and mindfulness in my condition resulted in my referral to a geneticist who later tested me for a family-related cancer syndrome. It was only after his insistence that I went. As a result, he not only saved my life but the life of my sister. My sister turned out to have inherited the same cancer gene and she eventually took steps to prevent the cancer from developing. I am forever grateful to Dr. Share and his expertise. read more

I'm writing this review so you don't have to go through what I have been through, and still am going through. Dr. Share came very highly recommended because he is a Cedars Sinai doctor and Cedars is highly respected. If you want a doctor with bedside manner, you're looking in the wrong place. He is arrogant as can be and thinks he reserves that right because he's been doing this for 20+ years. I came to him when I was 19. I was in a lot of pain. I had just battled an h. pylori infection, and had terrible bloating, gas, and constipation. He told me: I know what you have! It's called Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) I said okay, how do we test for it? He told me a breath test. I took the breath test. It came back negative. He told me that is very common and to disregard the breath test because he knows what he is doing and knows in fact I have SIBO because 80% of the time... these tests come back false. My young and naive self listened to him. And, he said you're going to take a course of antibiotics called Xifaxan followed by Neomycin for maintenance for two weeks... you'll feel a lot worse before you feel better. All I did... was feel worse. That round of antibiotics killed any good bacteria I ever had in me... and didn't have me going to the bathroom for a month after... a month! No matter how many store bought laxatives or fiber one he told me to buy... nothing worked. I was miserable. The amount of times I would visit his office only for him to write off my feelings or shut me down because he was the doctor, and I was the "kid"... are too many to count. He has a very scientific approach, and only knows how to over prescribe medication because that is what he was taught in med school. I now have candida due to the nasty antibiotics I took for so long... and has made my life as a twenty three year old very hard. He misdiagnosed me, and will never admit to that because in the words of Dr. Share: "I haven't been wrong in twenty years". Steer clear from his practice and ego. read more

Share may be competent, I can't prove it. I can attest to his arrogant manner and gouging practices., I received a bill for over $1000. When I called today (11 months since procedure), oh wouldn't you know there was a miscalculation and my bill is really only a little over $200. So chances of your being overcharged are mighty good!!!! Plus he requires an extra fee just for being him. His manner is very off putting and I do not recommend him. Also, his scheduler is a road block to getting anything done. Of course there is a fee for the surgical center and other costs on top of his fees. read more

I am not returning to this office in part because of the rude and unhelpful office staff and in part because of the $400 annual admin fee Dr. Share has started to charge. read more

The nicest man and a real professional. Weird topic, I know, but I was comparing colonoscopy stories with friends one day and it turns out I had the best experience of anyone. I changed insurance companies and though I'll have to pay for it out of pocket, I'm still going to him for my colonoscopy. He and his staff are that good! read more

I highly recommend Dr Share! He is a kind man with best beside manners who takes your concerns and health serious. Dr Share invests quite a good amount of time to listen to you and your problems- he really cares about your well being. After 6 years of severe heartburn and all sorts of sides effects which comes with this chronic issue - he brought be from a low quality of life level back to almost normal! Don't look any further - pick him! read more

Dr. Share is such an incredible doctor it is almost hard to describe. I first met him in a bit of an emergency situation and he was kind to make time to meet with me after normal business hours so that I could see him same day. He is an ultra expert in GI and immediately figured out the best treatment path for me. He spent so much time with me, asking a lot and educating me. Never rushed us despite it being late. During my continued treatment he is always so attentive, completely available and even helped to make sure we were following process best suited to my health insurance so that I didn't end up with some large unexpected bill. You can tell that he genuinely cares for his patients and his reward is seeing you healthy and happy. I have moved out of LA but will be flying back to see him. He is worth it. The only GI I want treating my health! read more

I am grateful to have been referred to Dr. Share a couple years during a scary episode that was much more serious than I thought. Nevertheless, Dr. Share's attention and humor lessened my apprehension; moreover, he and his assistant, Helen, made sure I was seen immediately -- and I mean not only the same day of the referral from my internist but the moment I walked in the office. They also scheduled surgery for first thing the next morning and Helen took care of ALL the paperwork; all I had to do was show up, which certainly is not the norm these days. They both called me each of the next few days following surgery to check on me, and consistently displayed genuine concern for me and my well-being. This kindness and accessibility of both Helen and Dr. Share was repeated on the couple occasions I subsequently needed to speak with Dr. Share. Were any of my loved ones in need a referral I would urge them to see Dr. Share. read more

Probably a good doctor. 25 years ago he was a really good person. Now he is so full of hubris and in love with himself that you light a match near him the hubris gas will ignite. He sent me to an MD for a test. The guy's office was so obnoxious I told Share that the MD must be sleeping with her. He was so riled that anyone could talk about an MD that way that he fired me. Worse, my wife , who was one of his first patients was told on calling with a question that she should either come in or pay $50 to have the question answered. That is balls and in your face. read more

Dr Share is the best gastroenterologist and diagnostic Doctor. I recently had a health scare and Dr Ed Share solved the mystery in 30 seconds. When I gave my laundry list of symptoms, Dr Share zeroed in on the culprit and was correct. When my symptoms were not improving over Labor Day weekend (who wants to go to the hospital on a holiday), Dr Share dropped everything, admitted me to cedars for an emergency endoscopy on a Sunday, and within days I was on the road to recovery. With Dr Share's amazing bedside manner, great sense of humor and amazing ability to assess a situation and act immediately I have healed and will be in Dr Share's care forever. He is my go to Doctor for everything now. He also helped a family member free of charge. Dr Share goes the extra mile always and seems to work 24/7. Dr Share is the best!! read more

Last year, I experienced a severe gastrointestinal illness that was inadequately diagnosed and treated by several gastroenterologists. These doctors spent little time with me, told me I'd be fine, and hastily brushed me aside. Needless to say, my condition worsened. Dr. Share was the fourth doctor I saw and the only person who could solve my problem. He spent hours with me in his office answering questions, was extremely thorough in his testing, and responded to every phone call I made after hours. What sets Dr. Share apart is that he genuinely cares and will do whatever it takes to make sure you get well. There is a complex connection between the brain and the gastrointestinal system, and he is the only doctor I have met who knows how to navigate these waters. His assistant, Helen, is wonderful too and is always available to help. read more

Spent the summer running around to most of the Gastro docs in LA after having severe swallowing issue and breathing difficulty. My ENT recommended Dr. Share and I'm lucky that he did. I'm a guy that's never been "sick" before, so having Dr. Share walk me through the steps of an otherwise terrifying experience was a huge help. The procedures and tests I needed did not take weeks of advance scheduling (like with most of the other Gastro Docs), he used every resource he had to make sure I was taken care of and that I was seen promptly by the correct people. He even went as far as calling my HR department at work to give them an understanding of my issue and what was going on, to alleviate any stress I was getting from them. Dr. Share and Helen go above and beyond the high expectations that I had. You will notice the extra effort that they both make, especially if you compare them to the other gastroenterologists in LA. Without a doubt A++ read more

I love this man (Dr.Share) and if money wasn't an issue, he'd still be my GI doc. But, in addition to the medical fees, which my insurance will cover, he now charges an administrative fee of $400 every year, which my insurance will not cover read more

I was initially nervous about getting an endoscopy and colonoscopy, but after meeting Dr. Share I wasn't nervous anymore. He dispelled all the rumors about taking certain medications with facts that I could understand. Dr. Share takes the time and has great patience while explaining your procedures. The procedure itself was a breeze at the Linden Surgical Center in Beverly Hills. Dr. Share is a great doctor and I highly recommend him to all of my friends and family. Helen, in the office, is friendly and patient, and is always there to guide you and answer any questions leading up to your procedure. read more

Dr. Share is phenomenal!! The time he spent with me to go over a colonoscopy and help find out what issues I may be having was tremendous! In these days where doctors have to go through so many patients in a day, I was shocked at how much time he spent with me explaining and asking so many questions to get me to a comfortable state and for him to understand everything that was going on with me. The actual procedure was also a very positive experience! Dr. Share is down to earth, funny and explains in layman terms. You can stop searching for a great doctor... his name is Dr. Edward Share!! read more

Dr. Share is hands down the best GI experience I have ever had in any country. He is wildly experienced, knowledgeable and intuitive. But on top of it, he's incredibly kind, warm and generous. He was so patient with me, calm and giving of his time and know-how. He saw me as a new patient in an emergency and thanks to him, I got a Ct scan that showed I needed my appendix out stat. He gently walked me through what I needed to do and saw me through from beginning to end.
