    Takes over a full hour past the appointment time to be seen. Unprofessional and wasteful behavior. I will not be returning.

    Was in and felt rushed. Didn't feel like they gave much of a diagnosis. $300 later. The complex is full of digestive offices.

    I'm writing this review to share my experience with this office's new‑patient process…read more Unfortunately, I've now been turned away twice--once a few years ago and again this week--because they consider me "established" with another gastroenterologist simply due to a routine 2021 colonoscopy. I only met that doctor on the day of the procedure and never had any follow‑up care, but the office still refused to schedule me. I also want to mention that the staff was not very polite either time I called. While I understand offices have policies, the way it was communicated felt dismissive rather than helpful. It made an already frustrating situation even more disappointing. Because this has happened to me twice, I've decided to seek care with a different gastroenterology practice. I'm sharing this in hopes it helps others who may have a similar experience with their new‑patient screening process.

    I had DR. Kanner for many years and everything was fine…read more AFTER i HAD SCHEDULED MY LAST PROCEDURE THEY TOLD ME DR. KANNER WAS RETIRING AND I WOULD HAVE ANOTHER DOCTOR. I decided to cancel the procedure and called three days in advance. They told me I did not call three days in advance and charged me $150.00. I then sent them a copy of the paperwork I had and they told me I should have called the day before which would have been Four days in advance. I would not recommend Arizona Digestive Health to anyone.

    Concerning Dr. Liz Cruz who owns Partners in Digestive Health…read more Nadezhda Ivanovna Lind who was a nurse practitioner at GB FAMILY CARE. And Banner Estrella Hospital in Phoenix. While Dr. Cruz is very personable, she almost killed my husband.  The nurse practitioner at GB FAMILY CARE, Nadezhda Ivanovna Lind, sent him to see Dr. Cruz for his first colonoscopy.   Dr. Cruz did not get his lab results from GB Family Care. (If she had she would have seen he had low platelets and would have had to infuse him while doing the colonoscopy. Or, like she told me later, she would have sent him to a specialist for the colonoscopy.) Also she would have seen he had fatty liver (non alcohol related) which makes clotting a problem and cauterized all 8 of the polyps instead of just cauterizing the largest one.  Nor did she send him to get blood drawn to get her own lab reports. We found out that GB Family Care did/does not read the labs until they are in the room reading them to the patient. Which was shocking.  Lind said they are too busy and have too many patients to read all the lab reports that come in. Every Dr. we have ever been to if there is something concerning they would get a hold of us immediately.  When we did not get a call we were unconcerned.   None of the info my husband received from Cruz's office said black tarry stool is bad and her office should be called asap if that should happen.  I was aware but my husband did not know.  He had been bleeding heavily since the colonoscopy. 2 days later he was in the hospital fighting for his life.  He ended up having 15 blood transfusions along with, I believe it was 12 bags of platelets. (There are many risks in having so many transfusions!)   Along with many other medical procedures. The inept hospital we took him to "Banner Estrella" could not find where my husband was bleeding from even though he was there for a month.  Finally having enough when one of the employees (I can't remember if she was a nurse or a lab tech) asked me and my adult children what we wanted them to do.  We stood there shocked for a moment until I replied  "Find where he is bleeding from and repair it!"   Another mistake was when we decided to have him transferred to Mayo the Dr. cancelled all his blood draws.  (Even though I asked if his care would remain the same.  They assured me it would.)  One that told us how low his hemoglobin was to see if he needed another transfusion.  Had I not awakened in the middle of the night to check what the results were online he would have had a dire emergency.  Possibly died.  I had to call the hospital where they proceeded to argue with me if my husband even needed his blood drawn.  He ended up being transfused with-in the hour as his hemoglobin was critically low. Another, my husband's blood count was low. (IE the many transfusions) One of the nurses left him alone in the bathroom after helping him in with a wheelchair having just had a test where he had to lay completely still flat on his back.  She left him there alone.  He passed out hitting his head on the wall.  My children were in the room and heard the awful sound.  When the nurse rushed in, my children saw their dad laying there, color ashen.  Looking dead.  They were terrified! We had him transferred to the Mayo Clinic.  It took them all of 24 hours to find where he was bleeding from and repair it.

    So to start off according to them I was late. according what we were told and when I got there I…read morewas on time: me 920 appt them 900am got there 910 they refused service. Last 2 times waited in small room over 30 mins for doctor to come in room. Found new D. and now much happier. This Dr office staff is rude. Dr is short commented with you and does not take the time explaining in lay persons terms. Office is more interested in selling other over the counter pills. You can do much better with other Drs., and you will end up much better off. we are much happier else where.....

Dr. Singh explained everything clearly; he's very thorough and cares about his patients. His surgical skills are renowned throughout the valley.

    I had an extremely disappointing experience with the Colon and Rectal Center of Arizona, and…read moreunfortunately, it was because of the front desk staff--not the medical care. The front office staff was consistently rude, dismissive, and lacked compassion. They spoke to me as if my questions were stupid instead of taking the time to help. When you call the office, no one ever answers the phone. I've left multiple voicemails and never received a return call, which is incredibly frustrating when you're trying to get answers about your care. My initial appointment was the worst part of my experience. I arrived 50 minutes early to make sure I had plenty of time to complete any paperwork. I was told I had to provide a written list of my medications. Since I didn't have one with me, I offered several reasonable solutions. I asked if I could call my doctor's office and have them fax the medication list, call my doctor's office to get the names over the phone, or even log into my pharmacy app to retrieve my medication names and dosages. Every single option was immediately dismissed without any attempt to work with me. Instead, I was told I had to reschedule my appointment simply because I didn't already have the list in my hand. Considering I was there 50 minutes before my appointment, there was more than enough time to obtain the information. Rather than trying to help, the staff seemed more interested in turning me away. I've never encountered such an unhelpful and unfriendly front office at a medical practice. Patients come to this office because they need medical care and are often in a vulnerable position. The first people they interact with should treat them with kindness, patience, and respect. This office should seriously consider retraining its front desk staff on customer service, communication, and compassion. They are the first impression of the practice, and right now they are leaving a very negative one. If this is the level of service the practice considers acceptable, it reflects poorly on the entire organization, including its leadership and physicians. Patients deserve to be treated with dignity, and this office has a lot of work to do to earn that trust.

I have tried the call back method previously and it never seems to be successful. Banner does their patients AND their physicians an extreme disservice in their seemingly LOW admin staffing and lack of accessibility and efficiency. Add to that they are dealing with seniors with a large population that struggles with technology. A LIVE person answering the phone and directing accordingly will save all an extraordinary amount of time and aggravation. They could be the best quality physicians and nurses in the area but this business model fails for them, the patients and healthcare. Your "loss" of profits may seem less on the surface, however, in loss of loyal patients - you are losing.

I'm going to end up in the hospital long before March. But they don't care. That's the overall message I've gotten from the team in this office. This is not about helping people feel better. Don't waste your time.
