I recently had knee surgery here to fix a few things. From the time I arrived until the time I…read moreleft, I felt they acted with a very high quality of care. I never felt nervous or uncomfortable with things happening. With this being my first experience with surgery, I had the usual nervous feeling but I was quickly feeling more comfortable with the bedside manner of all of the staff there. I am a week post op and everything is healing nicely and I feel very confident about the process thanks to the doctors and staff here.

Neat, clean, efficient: place and people…read more When we entered, I was a bit dismayed because so many patients were waiting. Eventually I learned that every patient, like myself, was accompanied by their driver. As patients were taken back, the driver was told to wait in their car and that they would be called when the person they accompanied was ready for discharge. The waiting area cleared out quickly. Michael, my nurse, was super efficient and knowledgeable, friendly and reassuring. He never acted rushed or impatient, even as I rambled about nothing at all (probably I was nervous). The procedure staff was also friendly and efficient, seeming to make my comfort and relaxation their chief priority. My doctor, Alok Gupta, talked with me prior to my entering the twilight zone. Conscious sedation is what the anesthesia is called. But unconscious sedation might be more accurate. I remember saying "ow" a couple of times, but absolutely nothing else until Michael brought me the bag of my clothes and said he'd walk me out when I was ready. My daughter was already inside and waiting for me. The after procedure notes were extensive, and clearly understandable. If you need an endoscopy or colonoscopy, I recommend you make sure your doctor will be able to send you here.

I would not recommend this doctor to someone I didn't like. He will talk down to you, lecture you…read moreon whatever he feels like, not believe you if it doesn't follow his narrative and not bother to actually go over test results. He would rather call you fat and tell you food has calories instead of looking at test results or helping with the reason you come in. He actually told me I was lying (without using that word) when I told him I actually did work out and ate things like fruit. He said women have willpower and losing weight shouldn't be a problem. All of this from a GI doctor who I wasn't even there about my weight. The advice he gave was out of date, not helpful contradicted itself and cruel at times. Avoid this doctor unless you are a skinny male. Then you probably are ok.

Great experience from start to finish…read more Well, as "great" as an invasive intestinal probe can be, I suppose. I'm a complete medical wimp with - I'm embarrassed to admit - vasovagal tendencies (needles sometimes make me pass out). Fortunately, EVERYONE here with whom I dealt was competent, compassionate, informative, and exceedingly personable/friendly. From the check-in person to the nurses (Julie, Stephanie, Lindsay) to the anesthesiologist to Dr. Diaz, my procedure was thoroughly bearable. [Did I mention how utterly soft I am when it comes to all things medical?] Five stars! Full marks! Thank you!

I would give this practice a 0 if that was possible…read more If you are referred to this practice, save yourself time, frustration and possible death if you're really ill and find another practice ASAP. This practice has too many patients and inexperienced, incompetent providers who care nothing about the suffering of the patients. (This does not include Dr. Gregory, but getting an appointment to see her is nearly impossible.) This practice is purely for profit. There are many other competent practices in the area, and if your life is at stake, you will not get the care you need here.

Was told they are not accepting patients and i needed to speak with my pcp for a referral. Because they denied me my medication, I've been sick for 2 days...my pcp's wrote a script but because viberzi is expensive its not kept stocked in the pharmacies...meaning i have to go 3 more days without my medicine...what that means is EVERYTIME i eat, i get severe cramps, sweating, and diarrhea with in minutes of my 1st bite...this is not a case of just having the runs...this is UNCONTROLLABLE runs that can last for hours without this medication. Buffalo GI is very unprofessional, and does not do their due diligence to inform patients...there was no notice in the patient portal, Dr Sohal's name and picture still appear on the website. I will be contacting the State's Medical Board & any other place i can find to report this practice.
