I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dr. Scott Minchenberg... I'd give him 10 stars if I could!
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! read more
