"I’ve struggled with stomach issues for a few years. Dr Shapira crossed every T and dotted every I to find out my stomach issues. I love his entire staff!"
— WebMD Care review of Dr. Gilad Shapira"This is the worst doctor I have ever gone to, I would not recommend him to anyone."
— Vitals review of Dr. J. Randall Newman"I went to see Dr. Newman about my gastro problems, he honed in on me after I told him I had lost my mom and was having a hard time. He told me I needed emotional help instead of trying to find out what was wrong with my digestive system. I wouldn't take my dog to him."
