Blake GI Med Spa Services
NO INSURANCE ACCEPTED/ CASH FOR SERVICE ONLY
The practice was established in 1996 and celebrating 25 years in existence. The practice has evolved since COVID-19 Pandemic to offer a variety of services beyond gastroenterology; and has modified its gastroenterology services to be limited to performing screening procedures without managing chronic conditions.
Colon cancer screenings are performed via the “Holistic colonoscopy (HC)” (utilizing NITRONOX gas; no IV medications; do not go to sleep). The HC allows the person the ability to have the procedure and eliminates the need for an escort to return home. The practice also performs the “flexible sigmoidoscopy” in conjunction with the “Cologuard DNA Test”. Soon the EGD (esophagogastroduodenoscopy; checks for stomach ulcers, stomach cancer, esophageal cancer, & etc.) will be offered with the use of NITRONOX.
The spa services include: (1) colon hydro cleanse (CHC) which can replace drinking a prep for the colonoscopy as well as to maintain a healthy colon by having a CHC every 2 to 3 months. (2) Smartlipo Laser Liposuction (no lose skin post procedure); (3) Botox injections for aesthetic purposes; (4) IV hydration (75% of the adult population is relatively dehydrated at any given time); (5) Holistic Life Maintenance program (Mind, Body, & Spirit; with mindfulness, self-awareness, and the power of staying in the “moment”).
The practice does not accept 3rd Party Payers (commercial insurances, Medicare, or Medicaid). It’s a boutique/concierge practice designed for a specialist medical practice. We have a variety of ways to obtain our services: credit cards, Care Credit, HSA (health spending account), other financing means, cash, and use of our Prepaid Procedure Plan (PPP) which allows the individual to make a yearly minimum payment and in 5 years the screening colonoscopy will be prepaid.

i am surprised to see all these positive reviews for this doctor. i came in with a problem involving hemorrhoids that was promptly dismissed. i was told i was causing my own problems by having bipolar disorder. i was told i needed a colonoscopy, which was done without sedation and with an inadequate amount of nitrous oxide.
i again contacted him about my hemorrhoids and he agreed to band them. i was prepped for the procedure and then told i had rectal prolapse and he couldnt help me after all. he said i needed surgery.
a colorectal surgeon was baffled by all of this. upon examination saw instantly that i only had inflamed hemorrhoids, not rectal prolapse. i was told to forget everything this doctor told me. surgery was not necessary.
the amount of stress i felt during the past few weeks dealing with this doctor can't be overstated. all that effort just to not be taken seriously and dismissed for my mental health issues. i'll never forgive him for wasting my time. never again.

Dr Blake is fantastic! In my consultation, he took his time to understand my problem. I felt genuinely heard. I didn’t feel rushed like cattle. The environment is calm, his staff are exceptionally friendly. Although his office doesn’t accept insurance, he makes it easy to pay down charges that may not be able to pay off immediately. They are very upfront with cost and how they expect payment. There are no gimmicks or hidden business. I highly recommend this office. He is sure to get down to the bottom of your problem. He’s big on EDUCATING about your body and what works best for you. I can’t say enough about him and his staff.

Amazing doctor! Everyone who works there is incredibly nice, and they go out of their way to help you. Dr. Blake did not rush the appointment, and took time to answer all of my questions and address all of my concerns. He has amazing bed side manner, and I felt comfortable throughout all of my visits and procedures. Highly recommend him!

Very good, I was nervous for days before going (my first time having an exam like this) and when I arrived i realized it was for nothing. The staff was very friendly and dr Blake was informative and had good bedside manner. I'm going back for a second appt.

Dr. Blake is a remarkable physician. During my first visit was very attentive and patience in answering my many question about my colonoscopy(which I was nervous about). During the procedure his staff was remarkable as well as Dr. Blake in making me comfortable. After the procedure was most important because Dr. Blake spent quality time with me explaining my results. If you need a colonoscopy I would say that Dr. Blake is the best in Philadelphia.

Dr. Blake is very professional and has a great bedside manner. He explained things well.
My only gripe is that I showed up for my 7:00am appointment to a dark, locked office. Someone finally came out at around 7:10 to let me in, and I didn't see Dr. Blake until after 8am.
