    The doctors were generally very nice, but the staff member who helped me make the appointment was rude and seemed to look down on us because of our poor English. Overall, the people here seemed to have fewer smiles.

    I called the day after my procedure to ask a few questions. Instead of allowing me to speak to Dr. Shah or a nurse, I was told to go to the ER. My symptoms were not extreme nor urgent but whoever answered was rushed, rude & dismissive. I repeated "go to the ER?" She said yes & hung up. Shocking! Every single person from Dr. Shah down to the wonderful intake woman & the two young girls taking my medical information & the schedulers were absolutely fantastic. Kind, informative, knowledgeable & welcoming. This after-care experience was upsetting. It was not an emergency & I just needed confirmation that certain after procedure symptoms I was having were not worrisome. Waiting in an ER for hours to be seen and/or reassured that I was ok as my symptoms were not unusual (tho not listed as cause for concern) was not where I needed to be. Nor did I feel well enough to leave my home. I called & was able to see my primary Dr a few hours later who then fully examined me, acknowledged my concerns & understood them. I'm a new patient with no knowledge or experience with any of these medical issues. It may be common or second nature to your team, but not to me. I expected understanding & compassion, kindness & minimal info & acknowledgement concerning a new procedure done the prior day. None of it was given as I was dismissed & sent elsewhere. FYI: The experience at Advanced Surgical was top notch. All the nurses went above & beyond. Dr. Shah was wonderful.

Dr Shah and his team were very accommodating, even getting me in earlier than my scheduled appointment, and REALLY listened to my concerns and got my procedures scheduled within 30 days, where as I was 90 out still at Inspira. Dr Shah will now be my new gastroenterologist, and i have already recommended him to friends and family.
