She investigated my symptoms thoroughly and listened to all my medical concerns. Both me and my husband have seen her for treatment and were very satisfied with the care we received.

We highly recommend her. Also, the facility is very clean and the nurses and staff are all kind, helpful and patient.

I checked out the website and it looked super easy. 5 stars for the operating room intake person. 4 stars for the clinic intake, i walked in and it's a little confusing where they want you to be, because they have a separate door, a card table for intake, but no one sitting there. Then they get upset (I saw this with 4 different people - who i pointed in the right direction) when you go looking for them to intake you. One star for the prep instructions, 2 days of clear liquid diet? I have never had that before, I couldn't believe it when I read it, twice!! 1 star for combative anesthesiologist who apparently doesn't like questions or believe in collaborative medicine. Plus it could because she was moonlighting here (she mentioned working at a hospital in Tacoma). During the course of the conversation she let it be known she was going to use the higher end of the dosage, which came into play later when the post op nurse lacked patience. Insisting the patient should stand up and get into the chair even though patient said they were dizzy and couldn't stand. In pre op, the dr performing the procedure was dismissive of patient concerns when they explained some difficulties previous Dr's had experienced. Dr was highly confident that their extremely skilled hands would not have similar issues. Which calls into question the reason provided for needing to come back in a year. The dr was not able to complete the procedure with a claim due to poor prep, although discharge paperwork says clean colon with pictures of a clean colon. Not sure what it all means because the dr was too busy for post op conversation with me or the patient. When the patient was released, they were very unstable. It took two of us to safely get them to the car. Based upon my first hand experience and observations, I know I will be looking for a different dr.

Dr Gregory Bernstein incited long-term pain and bowel dysfunction after recommending and performing…read morea procedure 5+ months ago which future colorectal providers described as contraindicated to symptoms, without cause (the procedure was on an asymptomatic hemorrhoid, incidentally noted during colonoscopy), and likely with improper technique, due to the facility's preemptive use of nitroglycerin. He rushed through the first appointment we had, and didn't ask many questions. Half my responses were mischarted, and he cut me off wherever I tried to ask questions, or provide detail. When confronted with the severe pain (like, in tears, after previously tolerating a thrombosed hemorrhoid), he was a condescending jerk, and tried to minimize the pain as just anxiety, initially refusing to do any exam, and never performing a DRE, before or after, actively delaying receiving the right diagnosis and treatment in a timely manner which may have helped to undo the damage he contributed to. He just said to schedule an appointment a few months out, and it would be gone by then if I used Nitroglycerin (which both didn't work, and added to irritation). A nurse initially refused to share a list of PT providers, until I finished two more bandings. He then charged my insurance $1k for a second procedure he never performed. (Edit: this was marked as an office surgery in claim, but the CPT code was correct in EOB. He did bill initial visit at 45 to 60 minutes, despite less than 15 minutes of interaction) On Yelp, others have described similar incidents, and being guided into a procedure branded as "painless" without explanation or concern when severe pain is the outcome. The entity had a negative reputation from both a local colorectal specialist, and PT. I tried to switch providers at GastroHealth, but was told that wouldn't be possible, and to seek referral to hospital system (months out) instead. After leaving a negative review, Dr Bernstein rescheduled video visits (for a rectal injury), where he contributed nothing remotely valuable. This has caused thousands of dollars in medical bills, invasive tests, temporary disability, and near constant pain, severe enough to prevent me from being able to travel over the holidays, even after months of PT. The experience has been incredibly traumatic, to trust a doctor, and go from an already distressing amount of pain (which he did nothing of value to address), to an all new kind of pain. I truly believe he is incompetent and unethical, and someone who should not be practicing medicine, especially anything colorectal adjacent.

I had moderate stomach discomfort and Dr. Pepin was recommended by Seattle Magazine as a top…read moregastroenterologist. Dr Pepin ordered an expensive endoscopy, even though I had one relatively recently. Although he did not find anything overly disturbing he then recommended a fairly expensive ultrasound. The same day I had the ultrasound he phoned and told me to undergo a gall-bladder removal surgery due to some stones being "present" (even though I did not exhibit symptoms typical of having gallbladder stones) He recommended a surgeon from Polyclinic, which upon checking happened to be relatively a novice. So I end up self-referring to a much more experienced surgeon in a different clinic. Upon carefully examining me, that surgeon was very reluctant to perform a surgery on me, due to the lack of symptoms present when someone has gallbladder stones. She recommended I get a second opinion from a different gastroenterologist, who upon examining ordered a second ultrasound. The second ultrasound in the different clinic has shown no gallstones present ! When confronting Dr Pepin with this new fining, he told me he isn't at fault for urging me to undergo a $30,000+ surgery, since he (blindly ?) relied on the ultrasound to come up with his recommendation (even though he ought to have examined me first for the conforming symptoms, instead of rashly urging me to go under the knife over the phone!). He told me he gave me the "best possible care", and that I wasn't "nice" for demanding at very least the refund of the initial faulty ultrasound. He also needlessly threatened to send me to the collection agency, even though his bills weren't even past due and, as I always do, I fully intended to pay them even without any adjustments!
