He said it is not a good idea but if we want to do it he was happy to help us. He said that because I told him my dad had a colonoscopy like 4 months ago and it didn't show anything bad plus my dad doesn't have any stomach pain. We decided not to do it but if my dad have any pain will come back. I really like the Dr Tim, he was nice, and took his time to explained everything I asked him, so I recommend him. Everything was smooth, easy to make appointment, everyone in the office was nice and respectful with us and we didn't have to wait too much. So thank you everyone A++

The staff also wears gloves when handling bodily fluids or when touching patients. There are some hand sanitizers available for patients to use. This place is open and available with limited capacity. They are sanitizing in between patients. COVID-19 Vaccination Proof: This establishment currently does not require proof of vaccination. They also do not allow pets in their establishment UNLESS it's a service animal. Parking: The parking lot for this establishment is small. Many times, the parking lot will be full. I just park at Walgreens and walk over. Or, you can park in the massive parking lot with the supermarket across the street and walk over. You have plenty of options. Don't worry. The medical office itself is extremely clean, neat, tidy, and organized. Staff: The receptionists here are very quick, efficient, friendly, and knowledgeable. Dr. Tim Chen himself is fricken funny, knowledgeable, caring, and compassionate. They accept both cash and credit cards. There is no credit card minimum.

    This review is for the office and staff of Dr. Soltani. IMHO a doctor could be great but if his…read morestaff won't alert him to an issue, won't relay messages and leaves a patient unable to communicate with them...it won't really matter. I'm having a really hard time processing some of these reviews. Dr. Soltani is a nice man but does not have a "warm fuzzy" bedside manner. This is not necessarily a bad thing, just don't expect that. He is well trained and has impressive credentials. Here is the reason for this 1-star review. If I could give minus stars, I would do that. The staff is unreliable, unresponsive and unprofessional. His scheduler is located outside the United States, which is not a bad thing in itself, but good luck understanding her. We've had a surgical procedure rescheduled, and canceled more than once . Medication was withheld, GI prep was completed, preop appointments that had to be rescheduled/redone...all because the scheduler canceled but neglected to notify the actual patient. This is clearly a negligible practice and I fully intend to see what options are available to us. I try very hard not to leave negative reviews but feel this is a public service issue. I'm disheartened, and feel very upset that the office staff are so uncooperative and unconcerned.

    Impressive--very thorough, clear, and explains everything really well. First time at a GI doc and I…read morehave to say it was a very pleasant experience. You never know when you go to a doctor you find online if you are going to like them but I have to say I'm really impressed. He reviewed all of my prior labs and notes and came in ready to discuss my immediate needs. Gave me a lot of good info and options. I left feeling heard and at ease.

    Great staff! This is my very first colonoscopy ever and I…read morewas so dang nervous. My appointment was pushed back by 2 hrs because doctor was running late... not happy about it because I'm hungry and parched. Appt was at 2pm (asked to get there an hour early) so I got there at 1:30. While otw, I got a call saying it'll be pushed back an hour...later 2 hrs. In the end, my appt didnt happen until 4pm. Anyway, other than that...my prep tucked butt...but luckily that was the only thing I was worried about. Once I got into the room, the nurse directed me into the changing room. Once changed, I went to the bed and waited for another staff to check in with me to confirm my name, DOB, and health concerns. Afterwards, I got the IV inserted to my arm/hand. Waited until the doctor arrives to greet me. Finally, after a long while, the anesthesiologist arrived to let me know that I'm in good hands. Right after greeting the anesthesiologist, I went into the room for my procedure...next thing I know...I wad done! Doctor shared his findings and got my souvenir photos of the finding(s). Procedure was literally 30 minutes! Then the recovery was about 15ish (for me).

    It's interesting writing a review for a medical facility that primarily deals with checking your…read moregastrointestinal tracts either orally or from the south. Between my wife and I, we have come here for procedures over the years on referrals from our primary doctors. Today, my wife needed two procedures again by a specialist who uses this facility. Sure, she had to do the unpleasant preparation which is crucial to a good result of the procedures but it is really not that bad considering the alternative of not knowing your true medical condition. Again as in the past, today was no different. The reception staff were cordial and helpful, the nurses were kind and attentive and their efficiency in processing so many patients was great. Given what everyone in the waiting room was there for; it was a calm atmosphere. We are fortunate to have a facility like this nearby and, if the need arises, I won't hesitate to come here for my health care and wellbeing.

    My visit was with Thuy Hua--if you get scheduled with this physician (I believe she's a…read morepractioner's assistant) ask for someone else. This visit was underwhelming, unhelpful, and annoying to say the least. These type of "practitioners" are, IMO, what's wrong with modern/American/Western medicine. Thankfully, I happen to know a lot about the gut and microbiome, otherwise I feel we would've just gone around in circles on this telehealth meeting where the best she could do is request labs for me. Then finally, in the end she suggests a SIBO test. I'm describing abnormalities--why aren't you suggesting all that you can think of to perhaps get a lay of the land? To be preventative? It was all kind of pointless, like I said it was basically just a telehealth call to get a referral to labcorp to get labs done, which I won't do because I actually wouldn't trust her feedback or interpretation. If you can't get the actual doctor, go somewhere else. Terrible bedside manner. If you are struggling and need answers go see Dr. Glen Depke, check out Zoe (which offers a stool test,) or check out function health. If you want to get to the bottom of things direct-to-consumer start up culture might provide you a more thorough, thoughtful, and less antiquated approach. This visit was BEYOND disappointing.

    Matthew Mukherjee and his office are scammers. They will bill you for a procedure you did not know…read moreabout and then lie and say you confirmed it. In January, we met with them and scheduled an appointment for July. Then sometime around March, they called us and told us our insurance would not cover the procedure, and that we had to find another provider. So we did and scheduled the procedure. They call us last week and tell us we missed the appointment and we owe over $300 for a no call, no show appointment. Are you kidding me? They told us we wouldn't be able to do the procedure here because they were not in our insurance's network. Now they are in the network, but they never called us to confirm the appointment and we never did confirm it. When I talked to the woman who called about the appointment, she never, NEVER mentioned there was a no-show or no-call fee. They never mentioned that when they scheduled the appointment, so this is unlawful and bad business practice. Pay you guys for a service you never provided and a service you SAID you were not able to do? Get over yourselves! I recommend anyway to stay away from an office with such horrible, dishonest practices. They will scam you too.

I've never felt like I've been under such care before. Cant recommend this office enough. Thank you to the whole team!
