Been a patient for several years and truly fed up with this office…read more Whether you are in the office or trying to get a hold of the staff calling on the phone, the entire staff is always rude, condescending and impatient. They lack overall manners and as healthcare employees, they lack bedside manner, period. When you address them to speak louder (I am legally deaf since by birth), they still refuse to talk louder and it is frustrating to communicate with them in person. When trying to reach their office, they are rarely ever available to speak with. You have to leave several voice messages and it can take days before you hear from them (Jason- office manager, nurse assistant Jamie and many others). In describing their bedside manner as healthcare employees, they have none, whatsoever. If by chance, you do happen to get ahold of them on the phone (after several times trying to call them in a single day), when describing prescription problems or general health problems, they continually interrupt you without letting you finish what you need to say. From that point, they treat you very condescending and as if you are stupid, all because they refuse to let you say everything that is needed. If they just let you finish talking, then they can understand FULLY of the problem existing. When the staff leaves voice messages on the phone, they lack proper phone etiquette, as well. Impatiently leaving their message so fast that you can not understand what they are saying, slamming down the phone loudly, never say goodbye, never leaving their names nor numbers/extension numbers so you can call them back to talk to them directly, (you have no idea who called you in the first place) and more. They need to greatly improve their bedside manner and their phone etiquette, work on their patience, speak up and stop whispering, speak intelligently without garbling and above all, let the patient finish talking and explaining. Seek elsewhere for digestive health care. Seriously disturbing.

It wasn't until he started seeing Dr Moxon that he was finally able to determine the cause. It was a joint effort between Dr Moxon & an allergist who were able to assist him.

So grateful to this practice for their time, care, attention and ultimate resolution to his issue.

Getting test results often required repeated follow-ups, and appointment wait times were frequently excessive. My most recent visit was unacceptable. I came in for a follow-up after a serious hospital stay and was turned away because the office claimed they hadn't received a fax, despite it being sent the prior week. No real effort was made to locate it, and I was even refused when I offered to email the records myself. Dr. Dyer never spoke to me directly and instead made dismissive, disrespectful comments to staff within earshot. Given the length of time I was a patient and the circumstances, this was deeply unprofessional. I will not be returning and do not recommend this practice.

Then it all goes down hill from there.She did absolutely nothing for me with the exception of prescribing me several different medications. She gave me an endoscopy told me that there was a flap inside of my stomach that is supposed to keep the acid out, but mine is not working properly. She never gave me a resolution. I've been calling her office for months, leaving messages. No return phone calls whatsoever. Then she refused to fill my medication again, even though in her own very words, this was the only medication that was left on the market, with the exception of Famotidine. She only works two days out the week Monday and Wednesday and I called leaving several message, begging and pleading for someone to call me back. Never received a return phone call for months. A horrific horrible experience. She did absolutely nothing to help me. If I could give her zero stars, I would. She should be ashamed.

Dr. Mehta in 2015 attributed a long-standing problem to an eating disorder dating back to high school. I was 56 with very severe constipation that had been going on for years. I happened to see my chart with his note referring to my problem as psychological. I recently went to ER for a bowel obstruction. Multiple tests were performed indicating a nonfunctional colon due to its size and tortuousness. Not because of laxative use, an eating disorder, nor psychological issues. Simply because I was born with it. Had Dr. Mehta been more dedicated to solving my problem and less inclined to label "an hysterical woman," perhaps I would have enjoyed more quality of life these past several years... glad I have finally been seen by a doctor who is interested in helping me.

Dr. Shahid is wonderful -- made me feel completely at ease and in good hands, from the initial visit to the procedure at the outpatient center in Oakbrook Terrace.

Even though my procedure was diagnostic, Dr. Shahid's thorough explanation of the results equipped me with the tools to manage my condition, and I'm doing so much better now.

We are different from other Gastroenterology (GI) practices because we understand that each of our patients is different. Each of their needs and treatments is different. So we pride ourselves, above all else, on knowing that each and every one of our patients is personally satisfied with the level of care they receive. We pride ourselves on an open dialogue between patient and physician. That's why we survey our patients regularly to get their input on everything from scheduling to patient care issues. We know the work we do is often sensitive and can cause patients concern. That's why we want you, the patient, to tell us how we're doing...and how you're feeling.

I had a very hard time trying to find a gastroenterologist that I liked and now i finally have! There is a bit of a wait to get in to she her but I actually look at that as a good thing. Would you want to see a specialist that can get you in right away? I for sure as heck dont! I want a doctor who has a good patient following. (I once had a docs office tell me they could get me in within the week and I looked him up and he had terrible reviews- no thank you) I really am glad I went to see her. Waiting room time is the same as any other specialist's office. Her office staff was courteous. Would recommend!
