    Scott Minchenberg, MD PhD - IBS leads to many stool samples... and funny selfies!

    I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dr. Scott Minchenberg... I'd give him 10 stars if I could!…read more I was down to a dangerous 79 pounds, due to IBS. My TEAM of doctors, at a major Boston hospital, decided "you are doing this to yourself" and "you are a nine out of 10 on my patient scale and beyond help." I took my CAT scan, from that hospital, to Dr. Scott Minchenberg at BIDMC... who immediately saw that my large intestine was completely blocked, and chose to help me. Dr. Minchenberg even calls me at home with test results! I'm not saying that doctors need to call their patients at home. I'm simply saying that this doctor made the extra effort for me. The other major Boston hospitals prescribed me a LOT of incredibly harmful prescription drugs, when there were ones without blackbox warnings available, sold me multiple unnecessary surgeries, which severely limited my follow-up options, when there was a less invasive surgery available... And then gave up on me.. Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center created an environment of empathy, non-judgment and welcome for me and my medical alert, service dog, Dr. Smallz. THE DEAL: if you need a doctor that truly cares about his patients, Dr. Scott Minchenberg is the best Boston gastroenterologist!

    After an unexpected medical emergency at home, I was taken by ambulance to Beth Israel Boston. The…read morestaff in the emergency room were compassionate, caring, and professional. They provided me with the immediate care that I needed. I am grateful for all that they did for me and my family. In addition, Dr. Bethany Roy was my doctor on Farr 11. She and her staff were amazing! They helped me understand my medical conditions. They provided me with the tests I required at the time, and they set up future medical appointments. I appreciate all that they did for me.

    I would not even bring my dog here. My mother is on the cardiac floor klarman building floor 8. She…read more was admitted last week with a serious kidney infection and blockage of stone. They put a stent in and all last week did the work up for the clearing of her arteries. Blood test ekg scan blood work and the cardiac doctor penciled her in for a caf this past Monday. I did not know they rotate out doctors. In comes this Anne Marie Anosropoulos. She sees my mom for all of ten minutes and declines the precedure We did everything needed to get her to do the caf . Come Monday. They switch to another doctor. They are now saying no. They said they were bringing in a third party for independent review. That was bullshit . We have waited all day and exhausted. They rotate doctors so you are not talking to the one following her the first week. This place is more running around with these young people and put zero care into the patients. She had no history or knowledge or anything. My mom didn't have an iv. At the end of the day she comes in and asks. I said why. Where were you all all day ? She than proscribed nausea medicine that could cause another heart I code r. I asked her to out in place dnr. It still haven't been done. I'm not happy. We wasted all last week. Why didn't they keep her in urology. She still has a huge d Kidney stone. Okaxe is pathetic . Go to mass general. Please avoid this place at all costs. They don't care at all and I'm exhausted trying to get their attention. Come here if you want a family member to die. They care more about teaching f than the actual patient. I am going to move her to mass general This place Is terrible. Please don't come here

    It sounds very promising. They care very much for Seniors. So far I just spoke to someone on the…read morephone to make an appointment. I'm looking forward to my office visit. I'm so very happy that l found this Wonderful Medical Center. After I hung up l thanked God for watching over me after having a terrible experience with my former Primary Care Physician. I put up with it for years. It was impossible to even make an appointment, they put you on hold for over an hour and 1/2 The secretary told me that it's not their problem If l'm sick and not able to wait for that amount of time even after just being discharged from Brigham and Women's Hospital, Thoracic Surgical Floor from having a Total Gastrectomy and Jujunostomy, I'm not able to eat for the rest of my life. My Primary Care Physician says that he has nothing to do with Boston since he's not out there even though his name is all over my discharge papers. He said that they just do that. When I mentioned this to my Thoracic Surgeon on my next follow up he couldn't believe it.

    My initial impression of Dr. Holtzman during my first and only exam on 10/28/24 was not an…read moreentirely positive one. I found his non-medical questions about my personal life unnecessarily intrusive. (I'd already been asked and answered a couple of those questions online as part of the required Zocdoc new patient intake by his office.) One of these was "What is your sexual orientation?" As with Zocdoc, I told him I was straight. He replied with a smile: "Maybe a straight guy who also sleeps with men?" (I believe his precise words were "Heterosexual meaning you like just women, or women and men?") Which left me slack-jawed. A couple unspoken thoughts crossed my mind in quick succession: "Huh? Wouldn't such a guy be a bisexual?" Followed by a recognition of his obvious insinuation, which I found as unprofessional as it was inaccurate. It may be appropriate for a physician to ask a patient's sexual orientation today (I'm 71), but hardly professional to suggest a different orientation to the patient. His next question was "When did you last have sex?" despite the fact that I came to this first office visit presenting no complaints, let alone symptoms, that might suggest an STD or anything else of a sexual nature. Frankly, I had to wonder what the dude's agenda was. He insisted on giving me a referal to his dermatologist colleague, despite my telling him I had seen two dermatologists ---working together--less than a year earlier as a part of the excision of a couple benign facial blemishes. Then when the results of my Qwest lab bloodwork of a week later came back, liver enzymes AST and ALT in my blood were abnormally high, so I messaged him for his interpretation. Unlike my previous PCPs, who would offer a brief interpretation via their patient portals, his terse response was: "See me." Which I interpreted as another office visit. Fortunately, I subsequnetly remembered that I had taken large doses of acetaminophen at the time of the blood draws due to cold symptoms, which temporarily elevates these enzymes' levels. (Mystery solved and money saved.) But I noted his attempt to turn my simple portal inquiry into a billable office visit, not (in fairness to him) unusual in today's profit-focused US medical industry. As physician/author Elizabeth Rosenthal has written: "The 'first do no harm' directive has been replaced with 'first leave no money on the table' ". In the year that followed, he cooperatively issued for me two gastroenterologist referrals with a recommendation for a colonoscopy, (although I should note that the first referral was for a gastroenterologist conncted to a facility from which a hospital approved post-sedated procedure ride home was unavailable to me, which limitation I had made very clear to him during the 10/2024 exam, thus the need for the second referral. In summary, I had no reason to question Dr. Holtzman's overall medical competence, but also no desire to remain in his practice.
