I had a colonoscopy last week by Dr. Kasher and could not be any happier with the whole process. At…read morethe initial consultation, I was very nervous about my symptoms but he took his time to explain all the possibilities and the necessary tests. He described the different preps for the night before and what to expect the day of the procedure. While the prep wasn't a walk in the park, the colonscopy itself was seamless. I was given the perfect amount of sedation to not remember or feel anything and woke up to good news from Dr. Kasher saying everything was normal. He even called me the next day to check on me, and a few days after to report some more good news about the biopsy results. Overall, I've definitely found my GI doctor and have already encouraged my family and friends to get their colonsocopy screenings with him. Thank you Dr. Kasher and team for a wonderful experience from start to finish!

Right before he was going to perform a colonoscopy. I had to fight his miserable office to get my results. When I called him out on him shopping on Amazon instead of actually focusing on his job, this clown doubled down: he told me he was not "shopping" and he watches videos and news between procedures. SMH I'm so sorry your patients are so boring and unimportant that you have to shop in between operations.

My husband and I both had colonoscopies done by Dr. Kuritzkes in the past (10 and 5 years ago…read morerespectively). We were both very happy with Dr. Kuritzkes, his staff, the facility, the ease of everything, etc. Sadly, all of that has changed, and NOT for the better!!!! My husband was due for his colonoscopy again. He called the office and ended up speaking to someone in - I kid you NOT - India! They have a third world country answering service that doesn't speak understandable English. So then I tried calling...same thing. I tried calling at different times and you get a computer message that the voicemail is full so you can't leave a message. No one ever answers the phone. If you call the surgical center, they give you the office phone number you already tried calling. At some point, after numerous attempts, the hubs got ahold of someone and set up a consultation appt. He was sent a draconian amount of crap to fill out online and was super irritated about that. His consult appt was fine, and they told him he needed to get an EKG from his regular dr first. They also couldn't find the pharmacy - CVS for fucksake - even though we gave them the address and phone number. He called his doctor and told them about the EKG and they said, we can't just do an EKG without some specific order or reason, so THEY tried to call Kuritzkes' office and called us back and said, we can't get through to any live person or voicemail. I said, absolutely NOT. We are not having surgical procedures done with a facility and/or doctor whose office is literally impossible to communicate with. How do you even get your results or ask questions, or get things sent from them to your dr etc., if you need to? Newsflash - you can't. So, we decided to find another place to get our procedures handled. Funny thing was, he couldn't even cancel his procedure because he couldn't get ahold of anyone! He finally had to call the Burbank office, and they had to actually TRANSFER the call to the SCV office because they also couldn't get through when they tried to call there. That was how he canceled his procedure. It's really sad that it's devolved into whatever it is now.

While I debated keeping my experience with Dr. Fisher and his staff to myself, I ultimately feel…read morecompelled to share it in hopes of sparing others the long and deeply frustrating experience I've had over the past several months. I first came to Dr. Fisher's office in mid-October with a handful of symptoms/issues. An exam was performed on-site, and, instead of discussing the findings or outlining a clear plan, his nurse practitioner simply asked, "Do you want a colonoscopy?"--without explaining whether my symptoms actually warranted such an invasive procedure. Wanting to be cautious and trusting that this would provide clarity, I agreed. On the day of the procedure, I was shocked by Dr. Fisher's bedside manner (or lack thereof). GI issues are inherently uncomfortable and vulnerable to discuss, and he made no effort to create a sense of ease or reassurance. When results came back, he left me a very brief voicemail stating everything looked "fine," with no explanation or context. This was baffling, as I continued to experience clear symptoms/issues--some of which had been observed during my initial exam. When I called back seeking clarification, I was met with irritation rather than concern. Attempting to schedule a follow-up only reinforced the sense that I was an inconvenience rather than a patient seeking care. When I had that follow-up appointment, Dr. Fisher could not get me out of there quick enough. The only marginally helpful recommendation he made over the past several months was for me to take a SIBO breath test, which came back positive with very high hydrogen levels. Unfortunately, any value in that diagnosis was undermined when he prescribed antibiotics costing $3,000 that are not covered by my insurance. What followed was weeks of back-and-forth with his office, repeatedly being told they "knew how to get it covered," then that they didn't, again and again, until I finally pushed hard enough to receive samples from the manufacturer. Seems like that could (and should) have been resolved far earlier. Ultimately, I never received a comprehensive treatment plan from Dr. Fisher, nor did I experience any real proactivity in my care. Despite repeatedly requesting additional testing in the absence of any alternative diagnoses, I am still left without a clear understanding of what caused my initial symptoms or how they should be properly treated. As for Dr. Fisher's staff, they are largely unresponsive and when they do decide to answer the phone, unhelpful. I strongly urge anyone seeking GI care to find another gastroenterologist--one who demonstrates even a baseline level of empathy, communication, and interest in their patients' outcomes.

First of all, when you contact their office to make an appointment, they immediately warn you that…read moreif you miss the appointment, you will be charged a $50 cancellation fee. I was never provided with any documentation, policy, or written notice explaining this fee or confirming that they are authorized to charge it. Ironically, when they make a mistake, there are no consequences for them and not even a simple apology. Second, the employee from their office, "Baya", was extremely rude and unprofessional. She made a scheduling mistake by booking my appointment based on a referral. Then, almost a month later, she called me and said my appointment would be canceled because they needed an authorization rather than a referral. If authorization was required, why was the appointment accepted and scheduled in the first place? To make matters worse, she called while I was in urgent care dealing with a medical emergency. I explained that I could not stay on the phone for long and asked if she could call back later, but she refused to cooperate. She was dismissive of the situation and continued the conversation despite being informed that it was an emergency. I also explained that I had already arranged time off work for this appointment, which had been scheduled nearly two months in advance, and that there were still more than two weeks remaining before the appointment date. There was plenty of time for the office to contact my provider and obtain any additional information they needed. Instead, I felt blamed for an issue that originated from their own scheduling process. Overall, the communication was poor, the customer service was unprofessional, and the handling of my appointment was extremely frustrating. I would not recommend this office at all based on my experience.

Taking couple of over the counter medication, seeing multiple doctors, & then I was told that I need to see a Gastroenterologist and see why am I having so much pain? Where is this uncomfortable feeling coming from? The gastroenterologist gave me a referral to go and get it checked out by doing a CT scan. He said maybe your digestive/intestines are not functioning properly . Set up an appointment for yesterday 11/9/2025 and went in to do my CT scan. I didn't know they were open on weekends between the hours of 8am to 7pm to do all scans, procedures, etc... My appointment time was at 4pm, but due to not having to do the contrast, they called me in sooner. I was greeted by Sergio at the check in and he was the only one working when they were 4 other windows open. I don't know, it was a Sunday, and didn't have too many people to attend. He welcomed me with a warm smile and gave me an ACTUAL PAPERWORK for me to fill out. NOT A TABLET! Crystal, the technician who was going to do this minor procedure.. CT scan, called me in and explained all the details in the most confident/descriptive way that was possible, She was nice, kind, thorough, helpful, professional, and knew her job very well! Also made me feel relaxed, & told me that it will take 5 minutes. It was a quick, fast, and easy procedure. The facility/waiting area was big,CLEAN, kind of bright inside, unique looking... for a facility: with nice decor/art work on the walls all over. However, the bathroom that I used once, needed a major attention, no toilet paper, floor was dirty and toilet was not flushed. The door of their changing room was left open and 2 lockers were open and gowns were on the seat when it should have been placed in the hamper with the other used gowns. Underground parking, and very close to my house. Let's hope my results come back normal/negative. Keeping my fingers crossed and hoping everything works out for the Best! Thank you Crystal & Sergio.

First and foremost, the front desk staff at this office is unbelievably unprofessional, rude, and…read morecompletely lacking basic customer service skills. The attitude I received was unnecessary, disrespectful, and honestly unacceptable for a medical office. I originally scheduled a doctor's appointment for myself, but had to reschedule because my child was hospitalized. It was an actual medical emergency. Despite dealing with a stressful situation involving my child, I still had the courtesy and responsibility to call ahead instead of simply not showing up. I then rescheduled my appointment for June 9th. On the 2nd, I found out I had no one available to watch my child, so again, I responsibly called a full week in advance to reschedule. Not one day before. Not the day of. Not after missing the appointment. A full week ahead of time. Your front desk then tried telling me that I could not reschedule after the "third time," which makes absolutely no sense considering I had only called twice before: 1. Once because my child was hospitalized. 2. Once a week in advance because I had no childcare available. At no point was this a no-show or a last-minute cancellation, so the way I was spoken to was completely unnecessary and unprofessional. Given that this is a medical office, I would expect the staff to have at least some level of understanding and compassion when it comes to actual medical emergencies, especially involving a hospitalized child. Instead, I was met with attitude and disrespect for situations that were completely outside of my control. If the front desk cannot handle patients with basic professionalism, empathy, and respect, then they should not be working in patient care at all. And also Dr Armine closed my case and she didn't care about my healt and situation
