Dr T is one of the leading GI doctors in the country. I don't care what his staff and office are like, it's 100% worth it to see him if you have serious issues that require an above level expert. I'd jump through hoops to see him again when I go back to California read more

Read the reviews. The front office manager is so incredibly rude. I am willing to be in pain longer just to find another doctor. I canceled my appointment after speaking with Allyson over the phone. Just wow. read more

Another encounter with Allison, an Admin for Dr. T. Allison didn't run my insurance information until after my appointment with Dr.T. I was supposed to receive blood work results 1-2 days after my appointment...I was contacted a week after my appointment notifying me that results wont be released because I was out of network. I received an email from Dr T. Almost two weeks after my appointment with the results (Trying to figure out if I had a serious medical condition). Now I have Allison harassing me for payment of services I didn't receive, threatening to send my claim to connections. I asked Allison for records of communication for when we had spoke, subsequent communication dates, etc...She said they don't have that information... read more

Terrible office manager Allyson - rude and lies about state "laws". She used offensive language and blames the patients instead of following up a process correctly. read more

Dr. T. is one of the best doctors I have come in contact with (and I have seen A LOT). When I was 15 I started having many problems and was tossed around from doctor to doctor being treated for many different things for a few years. I finally decided to find a new GI that would hopefully give me back my life. Dr. T was that doctor. He is extremely caring and I am so thankful for everything he has done for me. He realized I was just a teenager and that I really needed help. I was under his care for about 2 years until I was forced to switch insurances and I was no longer able to see him anymore (which is a tragedy in itself). Dr. Triadafilopoulos is extremely knowledgeable and is a very kind person. I was here multiple times a month for awhile and spent a lot of time in his office. The receptionists, Nurses, Techs and everyone in the office were all very kind and worked with me day in and day out so tremendously. read more

Very, very good. I think the front office is on par with others busy offices. Well worth the time and effort to get into see him. And he is the nicest guy. read more

I left this practice. The office staff was too difficult to work with, particularly scheduling. I was waiting to schedule Botox injections, which I was told needed insurance approval.after an extended period of time I checked the status with insurance; I was told no insurance approval was required. When I checked back with the office, I got an appointment in several days. It felt like I'd been forgotten. Two days after the procedure I had serious chest pain. Discharge instructions had said to call the doctor if this happened, so I did. I was told what I was experiencing wasn't possible and I should go to the ER. So I did. There was no further follow up. I now go elsewhere. read more

terrible office staff, seems the 'scheduler' is never available. Called several times but no response. Went to another gastroenterologist and everything is so smooth. read more

Dr T. himself is a good doctor, which is why I gave 2 stars instead of 1. However, the office staff is horrible and the experience of getting to see him was very bad. Every time I call, there is at least a 5 minute wait on the phone to talk to someone. When I finally do, half the time my message to the doctor is not answered. It took someone nearly 2 weeks to contact me to schedule a procedure. Apparently the person who does this is often not in the office, and I was told the best way to reach her was email. The procedure itself was fine, with the nurses being very nice and reassuring. However, once it was over, I was handed a print out and never was talked to by anyone as to how it went. I waited over a week, and had to call to find out what the results were. I had to wait until the follow up appointment until I got a good explanation (from Dr. T, he's great when you can get to him). Overall, I would recommend bypassing this place until they get the front office and messaging part sorted out. read more

Waited a month for an appt. Drove an hour to get there only to be told the doctor was not in. How hard is it to sent email or a text? Time to find a new doctor. read more

Dr. T. is great, his office staff not so great. Had tests scheduled last week, repeatedly told nurse or medical assistant that I have always have trouble finding vein for IV, totally ignored me and tried 3 times before calling over anesthesiologist to do it (he got it on first try) - covered in bruises thanks to her not listening. Then she proceeds to ask me "did you go poopy today"...um WTH am I two years old?? She needs to be trained on proper communication and beside manner - that visit pretty much ruined it for me - not sure if I am going back. read more

Dr. Triadafilopoulos is a very knowledgable and understanding man. I started seeing him in June 2014, after managing my symptoms for years, because Children's Hospital refused to find me another course of treatment. Within a month of meeting Dr. T, I underwent procedures to better understand my situation. We determined I needed to have surgery and then begin a rigorous treatment plan. While I am very pleased with Dr. T and Dr. Roorda, I am very disappointed in Tran, their receptionist. Not only is she unprofessional, she is rude to patients via in person or on the phone. Each time I call and speak to her, she lies to me, puts me on hold for 5-10 minutes, half ass listens to what I'm telling her and then questions everything I told her and wants me to repeat it all, she doesn't communicate well or return phone calls as she says she will, she told me she could not give me a direct line of contact to Dr. T when I was experiencing horrible symptoms or wanted to complain about her customer service, and finally, each time I'm at the office, she gives me a "I don't like my job, or patients, so I'm going to not give a damn about you" attitude. That right there pisses me off. If it wasn't for Dr. T and Dr. Roorda, I wouldn't have any interest in coming back. One last thing, Dr. T wrote a prescription for me almost 2 weeks ago, to start a medication I desperately need. I followed up with Tran 4x asking her to notify me when the prescription would be called in or given to me. I played the run around game with her over 4 phone calls because she continues to change her story each and every time. On my last phone call, she told me she could finally call in my medication and told me all the usage instructions and then said, she couldn't because she needed to call my insurance company, but she wouldn't be able to do that for a few days because she was busy. That's absolutely absurd!! So in the meantime I have to suffer in pain while that airhead picks and chooses when she wants to perform her job. read more

Wonderful. I have been a patient of Dr. T's for several months now. He took time to listen to my concerns and ask questions about my symptoms. His bedside manner is like no other. I have been to so many other doctors that are rude and incredibly condescending, so it's nice to get someone who genuinely cares. His staff is meh. All the medical assistants are nice, the front desk staff is a nightmare and a half. I tried to schedule a test that they only perform on Fridays. I had to call 7 times and they never called me back or made the appointment. I kept getting transferred to the "scheduling desk" who was never there. It was a trip, for sure. I finally called and said "I am not hanging up till I get this scheduled, and I am not being transferred." The receptionist put me on hold mid-sentence (???) then put me on with someone else who finally got me in. Not fun, but I like Dr. T so much I put up with it. Ya just gotta put on your big girl panties with those receptionists. read more

"Dr T", as he's known, is both a rockstar Gastro (head of the industry journal for may years) and a really kind person. Knee-deep in his specialty, which proved indispensable to me, he never operated in a compartmentalized way; he was very careful to consider the implications of any activity to the entire body. Stomach stuff can be really tricky, but Dr T gave me great confidence in a situation that required generous amounts of patience and perseverance. I'm so grateful he was the one assigned to the ER when I needed him. His partner, Dr. Stanley Marcus, is also top-rate, so patients can be assured of consistent care excellence when signing on with Dr. T. read more

Dr. T saved my daughter's life. She had been having pancreas problems for 5 years. Numerous trips to the ER due to excruciating abdominal pain, and she was told everything from she needs to live with it (consider it like a migraine) to take a hot shower, that will help. Finally, she was referred to Dr. T. He recommended an ERCP procedure where they would measure the pressure in a duct, if it was high they would cut it and put a stent in which would fall out in 1 month's time. The procedure was done and from that time forward, no more pain. I saw my daughter become happier, no longer depressed, looking forward to life. The stent did not fall out, thus she went back in to have it removed. Both procedures went extremely well. He is an amazing Doctor who saves lives. I highly recommend him. And YES, he is a very kind person, very personable. read more

I've been a patient of Dr. T's for 3 years and he is truly a savior! He is so compassionate each time he sees me, takes the time to listen to me, and explains the pros and cons of everything. Even though he is a world recognized top GI doctor he still will explain things in a matter which I can understand. I'm one of his younger patients and he has taken extremely good care of me. He's done numerous tests on me. While undergoing an ERCP, I developed acute pancreatitis and Dr T. was there with me every step of the way. He came to check on me in the hospital daily and would e-mail me to check on me as well. I had gone to other GI doctors prior to Dr. T and none of them gave me as much time and honesty as he did. Those doctors did not take me seriously due to my age and once I had been diagnosed with the pancreatitis, did not want to touch me. Dr. T is a true class act and a wonderful physician and an even better human being. I'm honored to be one of his patients. read more

Dr T is terrific. He is everything you expect from a doctor. he listens, he's caring, and patient. He is also very knowledgeable and seems like he genuinely wants to help. However, is staff is something little to be desired. They are rude, slow, and make you feel like you're a burden. I have been calling daily for someone to call me back and setup an appointment for my tests. read more

I saw "Dr. T" (don't worry, everyone else in the community knows who you're referring to) two years ago for a minor procedure. Both the consultation and the procedure went very well. I would definitely recommend him again. read more

Dr T is an AMAZING doctor. After I went through four different doctors, he was the only one to truly listen to me and diagnose my symptoms. He always, always takes his time with me when I have an appointment and is very personable. I have had several procedures preformed by Dr T and all have went with the utmost care and expertise. He cares about his patients and is always available to help. Dr T is by far the best doctor out there! read more

I have been taking my aunt to see Dr. Triadafilopoulos for the last 2 months, we drive 4 hours each way, and see him weekly or every other week. In a bleak situation he has given the best gift of hope! Emailing the scheduler has always worked out well and while she may not always get back to me right away, she always does get back to me and schedules what we need. I realize I am not the only person needing to schedule an appointment and that she does consult with the doctor based on the needs of my aunt. I always get my questions answered and I am always always helped by whomever I have to talk to, scheduler, receptionist, etc. We are so happy to have the opportunity to see and by treated by Dr. T. He is kind, understanding, and truly cares about his patients!! read more

Friendly doctor, friendly staff. Dr. T seems to really know his profession. I had an initial consultation to discuss my achalasia. I am now scheduled for a followup visit with him to help with my condition and he's already given me relief by explaining various possibilities. read more

My daughter has been with Dr.T for the past 3 years. We live 4 hrs away, but his knowledge & concern makes the drive so much easier. He is caring & easy to understand. In the past few months the issues at the front desk have been resolved. The person answering the phone is lovely to speak with & follows through. Finding a motility specialist is tough & I feel as though Dr.T is #1. read more

if you looking for a good doctor dont go to dr george. after i had procedure with him i felt worse then i went in. trying to call the doctor didn't really work and even when i told the office the way i fell still no call from the busy doctor. it been 8 days of pain and sleepless nights and the doctor didn't talk to me yet.... so if you look for a doctor how care look for another doctor. read more

Dr. Triadafilopoulos is wonderful, amazing, he truly listens to what you have to say, he is thoughtful and cautious (sometimes a bit too cautious perhaps), and very pleasant, doesn't make you feel rushed or dismissed. His staff, and specifically his receptionist, is horrible. She has no regard at all for persons with disabilities, and is all-around unpleasant and very frustrating to deal with. Among other things: 1. Tried to make me stand up to fill out forms despite repeated requests to sit down (I have extensive damage to my joints that makes standing extremely painful, as I pointed out). 2. Couldn't handle that my wrist was damaged and so I typed rather than wrote the forms by hand (they were EXACTLY the same, with all of the information, and I had called ahead to let them know I needed to do this). My poor husband ended up having to copy out the EXACT same information, by hand, delaying everyone. 3. Will LIE about putting you on the waiting list - says she has done it, but the next time you call, I guarantee the answer will be "Oh, ok, let me add you to the waiting list" "Wait, didn't you already do that? You told me you already did that" "I will add you now". I don't want you to add me now, I want you to have added me the first FOUR times I asked you to. 4. Failed to inform the facility doing a test that I was allergic to a drug they had to administer - I called to remind her four separate times, she assured me it had been done, but the facility said otherwise and ultimately I had to go to a different doctor to get the appropriate orders sent, otherwise, I would have gotten injected with something that would have caused anaphylactic shock and possible death. This is not a minor issue. I could go on but I think the point is made. Dr. T may be worth dealing with this rude, insensitive gatekeeper, but think carefully and be prepared for the rude treatment and incompetence you will receive. read more

doc seems pretty good, but front desk is a pain to work with and appears to be pretty understaffed. be prepared to be placed on hold every time you call. they also use patient fusion, but don't seem to upload any of the testing documents to it. read more

I have no issue at all with the dr I saw here, Dr. Roordan. He's actually got a great bedside manner. I had an upper endoscopy yesterday with a Bravo placement. The administration of the anesthesia before the procedure was mind blowingly painful. I was told when I asked about it post procedure that is the side effect with the drug used, propofol. However after doing my own research I found that slow administration into a large vein combined with the use of lidocaine lessens the pain of administration quite well. But these techniques were not used here. The anesthesiologist administered the drug very quickly in one swift push and it was into a small vein on top of my hand. I was literally screaming in pain. Aside from that trauma the procedure went very well I was completely out of it. No memory of the procedure at all. But beware this propofol crap it's nasty and was quite a traumatizing experience for me. I was given no information about what was happening during the administration or warning about the pain, but have been assured future patients will be warned. I personally think more should be done to alleviate the pain of the experience as well such as the use of lidocaine. Also be warned that the Bravo placement can cause intense pain on swallowing food post procedure. Day 1 was horrible, day 2 has been better. read more

Half my family are doctors, and much of my working life I've spent in biology research or medical tech startups, so I know more med tech & doctors than I care to. Dr. T. was the third Gastro doc I'd seen after many months of extreme misery with no answers from the other guys (who all seemed hell bent on rushing me into a colonoscopy, which as the NY Times recently documented, (google it) is their biggest profit center, & which ultimately revealed nothing in my case). I found him though a startup running some experimental noninvasive clinical trials, & I am glad I did. He was the first that didn't have the usual insecurity-based doctoral arrogance & the first that seemed to really listen to his patient & cares enough to carry on a dialog, rather than a diatribe. He actually answered post-appointment emails himself, which I know he's not insurance-compensated for like a Kaiser doc would be. I wouldn't hesitate to send a close friend or family member to Dr. T. He's got the rare, perfect mix of being geeky enough to know everything going on in an extremely complex, fast moving field; human enough to talk -with- his patients, rather than at them; & artistic/creative enough to ask the right diagnostic questions & know the right balance between medical risk vs reward. read more

Thank you yelp! I chose this Dr. because of the yelp reviews and yelpers are almost never wrong. I love this Dr! He is kind, has an exceptional bedside manner and really takes the time to explain things. He is also brilliant. He actually listened to me which not all docs do and actually gave me an explanation for why I'm having my current issue. He understood the interplay between my thyroid condition and how that related to my current GI condition and is writing a letter to my endocrinologist. He treats the whole person which is amazing. I'm so happy I found him! I understand why his office is so busy! read more

Dr. T is very patience and friendly to his patients! I met him in the hospital before my surgery because I was in a severe condition. He was very nice and he answered all of my questions even though some questions were pretty stupid. However, he didn't not make me feel stupid, instead, he made me feel very comfortable to do surgery with him. Thanks to him surgery went really well and it was painless!! I am very happy that I did the surgery with him! read more

After almost 40 years of doctors not taking my condition seriously I finely got a diagnosis from Dr. Roorda in this office. While I have only great things to say about him I can't say the same for Dr. T. I thought I was finely going to get help and some relief. Dr. Roorda referred me back to Dr. T as he was the expert for my condition. I was promptly dismissed by Dr. T with the only explanation that there was no help for me and if I wasn't in the ER every other week he couldn't help me. I left the office in tears and with anger at being dismissed, even after a diagnosis (a life threatening condition), with no help and no hope. Please avoid this doctor at all costs... unless you are in the ER every other week... I also agree with his office staff being the worst I have ever encountered in any office in any profession. read more
