Having stomach issues? Then run straight to Dr. Sherman. Dr. Sherman is the perfect combination of down to earth and friendly bedside manner with the smarts and intelligence of a modern physician. His office is located in the 3rd street medical towers at Cedar-Sinai, conveniently located to labs and imaging centers if you need any testing. Let's get straight to the point: when you're sick, what you need in a doctor is talent (check), smarts (check), convenience (check), and perhaps most important quality you need in a physician: dependability. Dr. Sherman doesn't let his patients down, he stands by them through the worst of their medical issues, working through different pathways until you have a solution. Of course he's busy. He's a great doctor. There's only so much of him to go around to everyone every day. But he will get to you, and not only will he get to you, he will get to you on time and usually exactly when he said he would. If you need a simple check up or if you have an ongoing and never ending chronic illness, Dr. Sherman is the doctor to see. My stomach problems will never end--these problems have changed, they've evolved over the years, and I will continue to have new problems (as long as I am lucky enough to stay on the planet), and Dr. Sherman is always there to help...thank god. read more

Dr. Sherman is the best! He was the only doctor that took the time to dig deeper to cover all bases of what might be wrong with me. I was written off my others, but Dr. Sherman saw something on an ultra sound that no one else had mentioned, which led to me learning my gallbladder wasn't functioning properly and having it removed. That surgery changed my life and I went from constantly being in pain and having stomach issues to feeling normal. read more

Dr. Jeffrey Sherman is an incredible doctor! He is warm, very knowledgeable and experienced, truly caring, attentive, reassuring and thorough. He gives hope and helpful recommendations. He's open to holistic approaches as well. He goes the extra mile for his patients! He puts you at ease which is a big deal. I could not recommend him more highly!! read more

Dr. Sherman is WONDERFUL! I had a very unpleasant experience with another doctor who I won't name, trying to get a colonoscopy a year ago, and I didn't go through with it. I had tested positive with cologuard, and this year, I retook the test thinking it was false, it came back positive. This time I went to the greatest doctor put on this earth,Dr. Sherman. I was terrified, I'd never been under anesthesia. He put me at ease. He has the most compassionate, empathetic, and professional manner. If you want the best care, see him! read more

I had another colonoscopy and endoscopy with Dr. Jeffery Sherman this week he is just amazing. I have been seeing him for 20 plus years. I can not give him and and his Staff enough praise. Especially Editth who is always so helpful. Not sure why there is anything negative about her. Honestly it's a very busy office and she does get swamped sometimes. She will always get back to and help you asap. I have nothing but positive to say about Edith. The only thing I wish Dr. Sherman would change is to get on My CS link. All my other doctors use it. It's so helpful for them to share test results etc. Or to get in touch with one another regarding anything two physicians might be treating. It's truly been amazing. Anyway, if you need a gastro he is the guy. Been doing it many years and just wonderful has helped me so much! read more

The best ever gastroenterologist in the world ! I started with Dr. James Sherman over 27 years ago when we move to LA. He's a genius ! Then several years later started to go his son, Dr. Jeffrey Sherman who is equally as professional, intelligent, and caring for all patients based on my opinion and for treatment of not only myself for years but for other friends and family members who feel the same way about Dr. Jeffrey Sherman. Dr. Sherman take his time to speak to a patient like a friend yet super knowledgeable and professional . He listens to a patient which is soooo rare these days ! He does not ignore a patient's questions or concerns. He listens ! He has the expertise and caring "bedside" manners . More than highly recommend ! I have the utmost confidence in Dr. Sherman . Thank you . By the way , Edith and Monique are always top notch and caring office staff . I appreciate their kind and professional assistance all the time! LSI read more

A kind and caring doctor - just like his Dad who I saw for many years. Old school medicine, where you actually get to sit down and talk to your doctor in a comfortable, non-rushed setting! What a concept! Have had several colonoscopies and an endoscopy with Dr. Jeffrey Sherman and found him and his staff highly professional and courteous. No problem. read more

It sucks to have to write negatively about this office. Dr Sherman is a kind, intelligent doctor who has done a fantastic job with diagnosing pain and nausea that seriously affected my quality of life. His office staff, specifically Edith, has kept me in pain and without the information I need to move forward for nearly a year. I cannot stress enough how lack of help with referrals will kill your medical journey. I was referred for an MRI about a year ago, and Edith at the front desk seemed angry and irritated with me for not knowing the tax ID and NPL of the RadNet facility near me. I explained I'd called repeatedly and asked for the information and they would not give it out. She eventually was able to put in the insurance request without that information from me, and it was approved. Unfortunately, the request took so long to be approved that my stay in LA was over. I tried to get the MRI done locally, but Edith was extremely irritated with my request to do so and told me to do the insurance approval work myself. My symptoms got worse over the next year, so I spoke with Dr Sherman again who confirmed I needed to get an MRI, and wrote a new order. Edith again refused to send the information until I got the tax ID and NPL from the same facility as before. Again, she would only process the claim after I called back repeatedly explaining RadNet would not give out that information to me. I waited a week, and didn't hear anything. The day before my trip ended, I called and was told by Edith that I had been approved for the MRI and that my request had been sent to the provider. I asked her to double-check and she was very annoyed. I called ahead to the MRI facility and confirmed a walk-in appointment, only to find there was no order and no approval when I arrived. I called Edith back and she told me she'd accidentally read last year's order and my claim was still not approved. She was not apologetic at all. I asked her to please call me when she got a response to the insurance claim, and she confirmed she would do so. On the 16th, I got a rejection notice that stated my insurance needed to confirm the previous MRI did not take place, and to see the results of recent labs. I called the office and Edith was instantly heated. Edith told me she received the rejection on the 8th and made no effort to contact me. When I asked about the information that insurance said was missing, she angrily interrupted me saying "they were told verbally." When I asked what the next step would be, she said "Advocate for yourself." I've never had a doctor's office gaslight me into thinking I had an appointment, ghost me after promising to follow up, and then angrily answer the phone like I call every day. I'm going to go to another doctor because I genuinely don't feel like Edith cares if I live or die, and I don't know why she's so angry and confrontational with me when I literally just don't want to suffer. read more

Dr Sherman is wonderful! He's a great doctor and an amazing person who always puts you at ease! Great staff too!

only negative comments are about the staff. Honestly Edith at Jeffery's office is so sweet. But Jeffery is a busy dr and phones ring off the hook so sometimes she might be a little rushed. Would you rather see a Dr. Not in high demand. Edith is a rockstar and very fast multitasker. Se gets you i in and out fast which many of us appreciate. But why are we there. To see Dr. Sherman who is not only the most pleasant Dr. I know but truly helpful in every way. He will always try different things to help find solutions to whatever problem you might be suffering from. He even is into trying supplements some things other dr's might not use. He doesn't always push right away to do a colonoscopy.like every other gastroenterologist he does them only when needed. So many other dr's that's the first thing they say. You need a colonoscopy it's like a cop out. Jeffry takes most insurance companies and he doesn't charge some stupid yearly fee which is a joke. read more

He's a guy but I don't think he knows what he's doing. He shares office space w his father (also a GI) but he totally misdiagnosed me. He really had NO idea what was wrong w me and sent me for an exam that totally unnecessary. If he weren't affiliated w Cedars his patient volume wouldn't be so high. He gets almost all his referrals through the hospital like most Dr. there. I strongly recommend you go to someone in private practice where they don't have Ceders coat tail to ride on. read more

It's been almost a years since my procedure. Still no contract from Dr. Sherman regarding the biopsy he took. No phone call, no copy of the biopsy results, nadda. Last Sept I paid the $24 they said I owed and yet, today, I get a bill for $30. Still no contact regarding the biopsy. My daughter, who is a physician in NYC thinks I should file a complaint with the CA Medical Bd. Protect yourself and go somewhere else. read more

I went to see Dr Sherman a few years back and right before I was put under he asked the male nurse who he had just met if he liked "to party". What? Are you kidding? He never followed up with a phone call to tell me the results so I just assumed everything was okay. Final comment, he said the anesthesia was covered under my motion picture anthem plan. Well, he was wrong, only twilight was covered and I should have called instead of trusting him. Had to pay $850.00. Twight would have been acceptable. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Sherman over the past year. Simply put, he saved my life. I had strange feelings in my stomach for years and had an awful experience during an endoscopy with another Physician. Dr. Sherman was great from the get go. He gave me a SIBO breath test, something the other fool hadn't even mentioned. Long story short, we have been working together over the past year to correct my stomach issues, and although I'm not quite 100% yet, I am one thousand times better off then now than I was a year ago. He always returns my calls on time. His staff always relays the message correctly. And my medications are always called in right away. They even paid for my first dose of an insanely expensive antibiotic I needed for my condition when I first saw the doctor. Just incredible. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Sherman and his staff and i'll continue to come here until our work is done. read more

Dr. Sherman is a great GI doc. First hand he has a great office staff. From the moment I made my appointment Edith made me feel so comfortable. Coming to his office was easy I found free street parking. His office was clean and nice. Checking in was super easy and minimal paperwork. I didnlt wait long at all before I meet the doctor. When I meet the doctor he was very friendly and nice. He made may very uncomfortable appointment feel comfortable. He rectified my issue very easily and I was good to go. key points. Dr Sherman has great bedside manners nice doctor friendly staff clean office made it a good experience. read more

A wonderful doctor. Right on, Caring, competent, capable. He did my endoscopy and found the source of my internal bleeding, I highly recommend him. read more

Love Dr. Sherman. I've only been to see him once so far, but I will continue to be his patient.

I have been treated by Dr. Sherman for a year now and have nothing but good things to say. He is very professional, thorough and kind. I am glad to know him and can't recommend him enough! read more

After going to a Gastroenterologist for over twenty years who sold out to a hospital which turned his practice into McMedecine. I was incredibly fortunate to be referred to Dr. Jeffrey Sherman. From the very moment when I called Dr. Sherman's office the staff were friendly warm and courteous, which made complete sense when meeting Dr.Sherman. I believe the staff many times portrays the nature of the Doctor they represent. Dr. Sherman is a warm caring man that can easily be seen in his patient and open to listening demeanor. His professionalism and knowledge is most evident. This is truly a stellar office all around. I referred my wife to Dr. Sherman and she had the same experience of complete confidence and satisfaction with all aspects of her experiences with Dr. Sherman and his office as well as the medical center where she had her procedure completed. read more

The secretary is rude, inconsiderate and unprofessional, making it impossible to make an appointment. Trash.

Kind. Calm. Genuine. Very smart. Caring. Unrushed. Listens attentively. These are only some of the adjectives that come to mind to describe Dr. Sherman. I saw him for the first time a few months ago to schedule a routine colonoscopy. At that time, he more than exceeded my expectations - and they were pretty high because of the recommendation of a family member. What a relief! Instantly, I felt comfortable with him and confident that he would be the perfect match for my colon. That, in fact, turned out to be true. First, let me say that as a grandmother, I've already had several colonoscopies. And the prep is usually the dreaded part. But not this time. Dr. Sherman prescribed "Prepopik" for the preparation, and it was, by far, the easiest and most pleasant (if one can ascribe that adjective to such a thing) experience I've ever had before a colonoscopy. I highly recommend that you take my suggestion and do not purchase a generic substitute for this awesome product. My insurance did not cover the prescription, although I'm sure some do, but it was worth every cent!! Second, I want to thank everyone in his office and at the Special Surgical Center where the colonoscopy was performed, for their professionalism and positive attitude. Everything went very smoothly (no pun intended), and I was taken into the pre-op room on schedule. I was very grateful that the procedure moved rapidly after that, because there have been times with past doctors when I have nervously waited endless minutes in pre-op for my turn. Finally, a colonoscopy is just something that we have to do. It's the right thing to do to stay healthy. As a breast cancer survivor of many years, I know the merit of early detection. Diagnostic tests are always scary, I think, but if you trust your physician, you know that you are safe. Dr. Sherman is very trustable. read more

I love Dr. Sherman. He surpassed my expectations by far! He didn't circumvent any parts of the appointment and was very very prompt, caring, empathetic, and extremely knowledgable. He took time to listen to my situation and he took everything into account and was able to order some tests to help me. I would absolutely recommend him to anybody that was looking for a gastroenterologist. read more

I heard great things about Dr. Jeffrey Sherman about was looking forward to booking an appointment with him for a consultation. I just called the office and asked if he was "in network" for Blue Shield. The receptionist said to me "did you have Aetna Assurant and get switched over"? I am a precise person and told her that I did have that insurance, but did not "switch over", I reapplied and got coverage thru Blue Shield. I saw that she didn't know, so I asked for someone in billing and she graciously gave me the number for billing office. The lady at the billing office told me that the Doctor was "in network", but could not give me specifics as to the plan and if I want the Doctor's tax id number, I can call the carrier and they can look it up. Can someone in Doctor Sherman's office help me navigate this? Thank you!! read more

The office staff woman is horrible and nasty. The only thing patients want to do is get better and take the right meds. She has no empathy and talks very nasty. Horrible! Dr. Sherman is nice with good bedside manner. But stay away to avoid the office staff read more

Rude and unprofessional don't go here. I'm in disbelief with how I was just treated. Jeffrey you need to fire your secretary.

Dr. Sherman has great bedside manner and a lot of compassion for his patients. He listens and knows how to get you to open up about difficult health circumstances. He did my colonoscopy a year ago and I've been checking in ever since to keep up with my health. It's not easy seeing someone for stomach issues, but he makes the experience less scary, stressful, and embarrassing. If you want a calm GI doctor who will listen to you, he's your guy. read more

This review is mostly on the quality of their staff, communication and overall experience. I found Dr. Sherman through my healthcare provider network. My visit with the doctor was fine-it was a short session with me requesting to get my stomach checked because of my heartburn concerns. He recommended an endoscopy and I scheduled it with his staff at the end. This staff member took over 10 minutes in booking this for me because she was on the phone half the time. After me reminding her that I'm still there, she gives me instructions to go to a facility on a certain date/time. I go to the facility and while filling out paperwork I see a note that this is an 'out of network' facility. So I was just about to go into this endoscopy and get charged over 1k out of pocket because this doctor and his staff failed to tell me that the facility is out of network. I wasted a whole morning from work to come here and not get anything done. I call the doctor's office next morning several times but kept going to voicemail saying their office is closed but it was only 10am and they open at 9am. When they finally called back(the next day) I explained my situation with his facility not being in my network and asked for another one he goes to but they said that's the only one. So at that point there's nothing I could do to continue with this doctor and pretty much wasted a day from my workweek going to see him, robbed of a $40 copay for the visit, $15 parking in their office since they don't validate. I never got an apology for the poor communication and instead got a nasty attitude from that same staff member saying "we have no control over your insurance, if you don't want to pay out of pocket, there's nothing we could do." I told her that the doctor or herself should've told me that crucial info about the facility being out of network and she responded saying ok, I'll let him know. That was the end. no apology, sincerity, compassion towards a patient whatsoever. I honestly felt like I got scammed. I wouldn't recommend coming here. read more

I was very nervous going into my appointment but Dr. Sherman and his employees are amazing. My first contact was Mimi, she was friendly and easy to talk to. She immediately took my mind off of my appointment and made me feel comfortable. Dr. Sherman has great bedside manner and made the entire experience much better than I expected. I highly recommend this Doctor. read more

Dr. Sherman has been my doctor for years. He is kind, professional and incredibly knowledgeable. I recently had a colonoscopy and the surgery center was equally amazing. It started on time and I was on my way home in under 2 hours. Dr. Sherman also has incredible follow up and bedside manner. He truly cares. I would encourage anyone to see him. read more

Dr Sherman is one of those doctors you wish could treat you as an internist for the rest of your life! I went to him for one issue and while other doctors would have just passed the symptoms off easily as IBS, doctor Sherman was so thorough that he was able to determine the real underlying causes to the problems. It actually involved taking a cat scan which I'm certain no other doctor would have ordered. In addition, I credit him for saving my life! Even though he isn't a doctor who normally orders mammograms, when I told him I hadn't had one in a while, he ordered it immediately. Then, when I didn't follow-up on an abnormal result, he made a personal phone call to me to emphasize how important the biopsy would be. Deep breath! As it turned out, I am now treating for Breast cancer and Doctor Sherman (my GI) caught this! This was all personal information that I have shared but, I can't stress enough how incredible I think Dr Sherman is as a doctor. Besides the above, he is kind, communicates so easily with patients and has very little wait time! 5 stars just isn't enough! read more

I had a procedure done at the Specialty Surgical Center by Dr. Sherman. Extraordinary! The front desk young lady was charming. The nursing staff is sensational! Dr. Sherman is a seasoned pro and I highly recommend him. Also, my anesthesiologist Dr. Ivan Brooks demonstrated an excellent bedside manner and showed greats kill and professionalism. Really pleased... read more

Just posting a long awaited review... about month ago posted my experience at Dr. Sherman office which was very pleasant. However my abdominal pain was still persistent and we decided to do a colonoscopy. The prep for the colonoscopy was the worst, however the actual procedure with Dr. Sherman was great. Fabulous work with zero pain, i would highly recommend Dr. Sherman as a go to gastroenterologist. Thanks Dr. Sherman for the great work read more

I hate doctors and generally have to be dying before I will go. After suffering through an ulcer the last year I finally went to see Dr Sherman, he immediately put me at ease. He has a great bedside manner and seemed like he genuinely cared about what was going on. He's very competent and a all around good guy. I highly recommend him. read more
