“Dr. Oliner is such a breath of fresh air. I've seen two gastros before him and both were fairly vague and unprofessional. Dr. Oliner was a great listener, a critical thinker and provided thoughtful instructions.
Given the urgency of my request he was able to see me day of and schedule my follow up endoscopy the next day. Not enough positive things to say about Dr. Oliner. ”

Very nice and understanding. Make you feel comfortable sharing your (obviously) uncomfortable symptoms. The nurses are wonderful, I had Nicole who was dealt with the unfortunate task of drawing my blood (I have difficult veins) and she made the process easy even though I almost passed out. Very professional and got the job done.

Dr. Oliner was extremely informative and helpful. He was very thorough with questions about my health, and I'm looking forward to future appointments so I can resolve some of my stomach issues!
March 6, 2016Angela P.Verified patient
I am a new patient of Dr. Oliner's, and having only seen him twice so far I would definitely recommend him. The procedure I underwent was professional, timely, and thorough. There is genuine concern for patient's well-being and an honest, transparent approach to diagnosis. We are still working on solving the problem, but I have no doubts in Dr. Oliner's ability. Five's across the board; only hiccup was a full phone inbox when trying to leave a message to confirm an appointment!

I have ongoing skin problems and I know skin is the indicator of the overall health of the body.
I came to check my stomach in order to find out if I have some tyoe of bacteria in stomach or gluten allergy. This doctor was very nice and he did take blood test and breath test, however was not much helpful, he adviced to see dermatologist and expressed an opiniom the more likely my skin problems are not connected with my inner organs...
I am dissapointed :(

I was never contacted with my test results. I called numerous times for the report but I always got the runaround from them (call X, then X would tell you to call Y, then Y would say Z will call you back later today). The reason to see a doctor is to get a diagnosis and I never got one. It's unfortunate, but I will not be recommending Dr. Oliner.
