Verified patient
the wait was due to an emergency and the other doctor being out with the the birth of first grandchild , so I had no problem with it.
Verified patient
Dr. Atia and I talked about my present health conditions and what is coming up for me in terms of next steps. He is very patient, and clearly and thoroughly explains things to his patients. I would recommend Dr. Atia to anyone.
Verified patient
The doctor was fine, but the office system is terrible. No one answers phones or returns calls within the promised 24 hours. Instead, I got no less than 5 automated appointment reminders even after confirming.
Verified patient
I felt that the appointment was educational, but I did become anxious when he was mentioning tests that I need to have done, for example an endoscope. I am nervous about getting the HIDA scan done too because of interaction with an IV and the mere fact that I have to stay still for 90 minutes. Hopefully, I will be able to lay still for 90 minutes, otherwise I don't what they can do.
Verified patient
This was my first visit with Dr. Atia. I found Dr. Atia to be friendly/personable, with a pleasant beside manner. Appreciated that he came to speak with me after the procedure. We had a bit of a wait, but the procedure before mine ran long. Not unexpected all things considered..
Verified patient
The Doctor was very great and really knows his Profession and will be helping me treat my terrible IBS we put a plan between the 2 of us to get me on the right track.Only problem is I have a lot of Colon issues,Gerd and Barrettis Esophocis so I will be going to get both an Endoscopy and Colonoscopy due to the health issues I have.He is a very nice Doctor that is very helpful and knows his practice very well,
Verified patient
Staff was overall very good and professional. Wait time after I had *gowned up* seemed pretty long, but I had arrived very early for my appointment, so that may have been part of the reason. The main nurse on staff seemed very busy, juggling a lot of patients, but was very nice. Dr. Atia was also very nice. He wasn't able to see me after I was in recovery, but followed up with a call to my home, which was appreciated.
Verified patient
Professional, good communicator.
