Dr Khadrah, saved my life! Two weeks ago I was having a divaticular bleeding episode. I went to the…read morehospital 3 times. Finally I was admitted and met with the doctor on Saturday. He has been my doctor since I relocated to Florida last year. I have had this problem for almost 10 years and it got to the point that the doctors in Boston wanted to remove my colon completely. Since I had stopped have the problem for a year and a hall I opted not to have the surgery and since I had so many colonoscopies and they never resolved the problem I had become reluctant to have any more. The doctors always wanted to wait until I stopped bleeding before the pro-formed the colonoscopy. How ridicules how can you see where someone is bleeding if they had stopped bleeding. Well since Dr Khadrah had never seen the inside of my colon, I agreed to the colonoscopy. He scheduled it for the next day, Sunday. He told me that in the 26 years of his practice he had only successfully found the source of the bleeding 3 times while the colon was still bleeding. Well now he can say he found the source of the bleeding 4 times. As I said before he saved my life. Of course he was flying blind because I was still bleeding massively but he was relentless and his scope traveled the entire length of my colon and he fought the source of my massive bleeding. He was able to use 6 clips to stop the bleeding. This is a doctor that goes the extra mile. He later told me that before the colonoscopy he prayed that I would survive.

My impression was so poor that I called another GI while in the waiting room as I automatically wanted a second opinion. That changed, however, when I was brought back and met Dr. Ahmed. He was thorough and had a great bedside manner. Also, they kept their schedule pretty spot on, unlike most other doctors. I was taken back within 10 minutes of my appointment time and saw the doctor within 10 minutes of that.

It's extremely difficult to get a hold of the staff or provider. They turn their phones over to the answering service quite often and early in the day (i tried calling from 2 - 3:30pm and still answering service). They don't return calls no matter how many times you call them. The only response you get is "the provider is in clinic". That would be the whole day. When they refer you to the outpatient surgery center, that's a whole different nightmare.

4 Stars - Pre-op appointment review…read more I chose this office because of the referral from my primary doctor. I arrived on time and signed in. I waited a few minutes before I was called to finalize the check-in (pay the co-pay). After another, longer wait, Jasmine called my name and walked me to the examination room. She was personable and engaging in collecting and inputting required information. After Jasmine finished, I waited 10+ minutes for Dr Reddy, and passed a portion of the time by educating myself using the interactive wall computer screen. Dr. Reddy asked questions to clarify my reason for getting a colonoscopy and explained the process at a high level. He gave me opportunity to ask questions, and then walked me to the scheduling desk. Alex (of scheduling fame I have to believe) was the star of my visit. He provided all the prep details and worked out a solution for the pending change in my insurance provides. Alex was very knowledgeable, confident, and personable, and left me with a very favorable impression of the office.

The overall standard of care that I've received has always been pretty good. I've never really had a bad experience. My mother has also come to this facility (as I believe so has my brother). We've all really had good experiences here. I went in last week for a quick consult before a routine endoscopy that I'll be receiving later this month. The doctor was kind, patient, and explained everything thoroughly to me. She went over my expectations/tasks as a patient to prepare for the endoscopy. I felt seen and heard. I left the office very confident that I would be in trusted hands. As far as the facility itself goes, it is a bit more outdated in comparison to some newer facilities; however, for the most part, it has a decent amount of seating. It is usually ALWAYS packed / busy. So, parking can get a little full; however, there is on-street parking all around. The facility is as clean as one can expect of any facility, really. All in all, I definitely appreciate the care I've received here and will continue to go here for any of my GI needs.
