As a Crohns patient, I have been to Hell and back for a couple of years. At one recent hospital visit, Dr. Bianchi burst through my door with a smile and a warm bedside manner with an eagerness to help. From then on, each and every day of my hospital stay, she was there to explain in great detail what was going on and what she planned on doing to help me. She is amazing. She is kind. She is willing to sit with you as long as you need. She's willing to get her hands dirty (not literally, she wears gloves) and get in there to solve your problems. To top it off, she even called in an intern so she could show the next generation of doctor exactly what she was doing for me.

4 Stars - Pre-op appointment review…read more I chose this office because of the referral from my primary doctor. I arrived on time and signed in. I waited a few minutes before I was called to finalize the check-in (pay the co-pay). After another, longer wait, Jasmine called my name and walked me to the examination room. She was personable and engaging in collecting and inputting required information. After Jasmine finished, I waited 10+ minutes for Dr Reddy, and passed a portion of the time by educating myself using the interactive wall computer screen. Dr. Reddy asked questions to clarify my reason for getting a colonoscopy and explained the process at a high level. He gave me opportunity to ask questions, and then walked me to the scheduling desk. Alex (of scheduling fame I have to believe) was the star of my visit. He provided all the prep details and worked out a solution for the pending change in my insurance provides. Alex was very knowledgeable, confident, and personable, and left me with a very favorable impression of the office.

After hour and a half waiting, I asked the front des young lady if the is normal that long waiting, instead of trying to find out why it was happening, she jus asked with a cold face, "do you want to reschedule your appointment?" like we don't matter to them "is like saying "come again to waste your time" I was referred by my primary Dr. to this place, I don't have any complain about the Dr since I didn't even see him, I left fuming and very upset for the stupid attitude of the young Gen Z lady at the front desk, of course I will look for another Dr. to see if I have better luck.

There are 2 offices....which makes it easy for me to get to them.....there's one out by Dr. Phillips/Sand Lake Hospital area and 1 near Downtown, Florida Hospital. Really really enjoy these 2 docs.

The overall standard of care that I've received has always been pretty good. I've never really had a bad experience. My mother has also come to this facility (as I believe so has my brother). We've all really had good experiences here. I went in last week for a quick consult before a routine endoscopy that I'll be receiving later this month. The doctor was kind, patient, and explained everything thoroughly to me. She went over my expectations/tasks as a patient to prepare for the endoscopy. I felt seen and heard. I left the office very confident that I would be in trusted hands. As far as the facility itself goes, it is a bit more outdated in comparison to some newer facilities; however, for the most part, it has a decent amount of seating. It is usually ALWAYS packed / busy. So, parking can get a little full; however, there is on-street parking all around. The facility is as clean as one can expect of any facility, really. All in all, I definitely appreciate the care I've received here and will continue to go here for any of my GI needs.
