It truly was a great experience. I also liked that I did not have to go to the hospital to get this done - it was right in their office which was easy. I also appreciate not having to drink all that crap I had heard about - I appreciated the pills making the prep more pleasant as well. Dr Jaklic was wonderful and put me at ease.

Amber Harris is the most disrespectful nurse i have ever encountered! Ive been a patient of GATGI…read morefor more than 10 years and I want to say that I have never felt so disrespected by a "health care professional" in all of my 55 years of living. After calling 3 times to follow up with my GI doctor, i was transferred to his Nurse Amber Harris and basically she ended up telling me that she "didnt like the tone of my voice" when i was letting her know that I had called 3 times previously and eventually sang me a chorus of "Good byyyyye" and "Good Luuuuuck"! Incredibly disrespectful! Im going to make sure I write about this experience on every review source known to mankind. She should have her certification revoke because she doesn't represent any type of Florence Nightengale bedside manner and she definitely not professional! She also didnt even relay to my Dr that I had called...which is very retaliatory as if she is a gatekeeper to my wellness. Absolutely disgusting! Trust and believe I will make sure the world knows!

I was referred here from my Gastroenterologist after multiple years of attempting to resolve a…read moremedical issue. This place is located on First Colonial Rd. just past the intersection with Old Donation Parkway when heading north. On my first few visits here, we were working to continue a course of treatment that would hopefully avoid surgery. This went on for several months. There was relief, but no full healing. In the end, surgery was the final recourse. The doctor I am seeing here is Dr. Juan Gelpi. A month or so before the surgery occurred, Dr. Gelpi went over the risks of surgery, what to expect, etc. He covered everything from beginning to end. At that time, I was hoping it would resolve, but by the time the new year began, I knew the surgery had to happen. In January, the surgery occurred. Prior to the surgery, he came in and told me the process of what would be happening, etc. Again, all the bases were covered and had no questions. After the surgery that day, I could already feel the relief. Now that we're a few weeks past the surgery and had the post op follow up, everything is well and back to normal. I haven't felt this good in over five years. If you are having any type of colorectal or other issues that this practice provides, I highly recommend coming here.

My recovery was much less painful than I expected, and that is due to the minimally-invasive technique she used. On a skill level, I'm very impressed.

My wife was a patient at Gastroenterology, Ltd. of Virginia Beach, and I'm sharing this review as…read moreher husband -- someone who had to watch her suffer not just from worsening medical symptoms, but from being completely dismissed by the doctors who should have helped her. She first saw Dr. Patrick for ongoing upper abdominal pain and digestive symptoms. Despite describing textbook signs of gallbladder dysfunction, Dr. Patrick only recommended an endoscopy. She didn't seriously explore the possibility that my wife's gallbladder was the problem. As her pain worsened, Dr. Patrick sent her to the ER on May 30. That seemed like a positive step. But afterward, there was no follow-up from the GI office. It was her primary care physician, not Dr. Patrick, who ordered a HIDA scan, which was performed on June 3. The scan clearly showed abnormal gallbladder function. After that scan, my wife called the GI office several times seeking guidance. She was still in pain and had a test showing her gallbladder wasn't working -- but no one returned her calls. Left with no answers, she had no choice but to go back to the ER. While she was being treated in the ER, Dr. Patrick finally called -- not to offer help or a surgical referral, but to say that it wasn't her gallbladder and she just needed the endoscopy. My wife had already followed every reasonable recommendation up to that point -- except two things: She declined to take medications that had the potential to worsen her gallbladder function, which made sense given that the HIDA scan showed it was already failing. She didn't go forward with the endoscopy, because by then, the source of her pain was already clearly identified -- and it wasn't her stomach. And she was right to stand her ground. Soon after, she was admitted to the hospital for urgent gallbladder surgery. The surgeon told us that her gallbladder was very enlarged and completely non-functioning. That was a shocking confirmation that her instincts -- and her pain -- had been correct all along. And that the GI office had failed her. As her husband, I watched her do everything she could: she showed up, followed the process, got the tests, and made the right decisions. She didn't ignore advice -- she filtered it through common sense and clear medical evidence. And she was dismissed anyway. No patient should have to go through what she did. She wasn't just ignored -- she was actively misled and left to suffer. I truly hope this practice reflects on how they treat patients, because the next person might not push as hard -- and they shouldn't have to.

This Gastroenterology Ltd office is a satellite of the main location on First Colonial Road…read more The office is located in a 3 story medical building on Healthy Way. The building sits alone in a field off Plaza Trail Road. The location is just north of the intersection with Princess Anne Road. At that intersection sits a shopping center which is anchored by Harris Teeters, Petco, Marshall's & others. So the medical building is really hard to miss. Gastroenterology Ltd is located on the 2nd floor. Step out of the elevator. Turn right; and you are at the doors. If you have a routine appointment or follow up, rather than a procedure, it's much easier to go to this location. It isn't crowded. It's easier to get an appointment. And you are in and out much quicker. Can I tell you how much I like Dr. Pop? I started seeing him when Dr. Rawls retired. He's young, smart and caring. He will keep working until he's located the source of a problem. He treats you like a person, not just a chart. Dr. Pop did his Residency at UVA and a Fellowship In Gastroenterology at Mt. Sinai in NYC. I trust him implicitly. I recommend this practice, whether it be the main or satellite location without any hesitation.

I was referred to Capital Digestive Care in Chesapeake by my Primary Care Doctor in Elizabeth City…read more This CDC office in Chesapeake has refused to give me an appointment for a serious issue that I am having because I was seen in the Princess Anne office of Capital Digestive Care by a PA who was a disgrace to her profession. She was 45 minutes late for my appointment and made no apologies. During my wait time I had to listen to a "nurse" tell me all about her breast cancer, which was extremely inappropriate. I cannot and will not go back to that office. It should be my choice about which practice I attend. And I trust my PCP to refer me to the best practice, in the area, for my issue. Capital Digestive Care in Chesapeake will not provide me with an appointment because I was seen at the Princess Anne practice almost a year ago. The policy seems very discriminatory and unprofessional. The meaning of the Hippocratic Oath seems to be absent and these Practitioners who do not imbue the essence and meaning of that oath, which says, "I will remember that I do not treat a fever chart, a cancerous growth, but a sick human being, whose illness may affect the person's family and economic stability. My responsibility includes these related problems, if I am to care adequately for the sick. I will prevent disease whenever I can, for prevention is preferable to cure. I will remember that I remain a member of society, with special obligations to all my fellow human beings, those sound of mind and body as well as the infirm. If I do not violate this oath, may I enjoy life and art, respected while I live and remembered with affection thereafter. May I always act so as to preserve the finest traditions of my calling and may I long experience the joy of healing those who seek my help." At the very least the front desk staff at the Chesapeake office of Capital Digestive Care are rude and completely unsympathetic in their unwavering policy to neglect patients who have been specifically referred to them. I truly wonder if the Medical team understands this policy and if they know how disrespectful their staff seems to be. I would love to receive a response to this review and hopefully recover from this terrible experience. My guess is this will be completely ignored.
