Would never recommend this doctor‘s office! Had to follow up with a gastroenterologist after the hospital. For my first appointment I was escorted into an examining room with someone who is taking my vitals, and her three-year-old daughter attached to her leg with no shoes on. How is that appropriate?? Not to mention she didn’t have a mask on. How do you allow an employees child in an examining room with a patient? As if that wasn’t enough I was told to get clearance for procedure and that I would be notified when the clearance was received. They received my clearance almost a week ago, and not only have I not heard from them, I’ve left five messages on five different days for a callback and I have not yet received a call! How do you operate a doctors office in this manner? Do not go! Find another doctor! Highly unprofessional and I’m assuming bringing a three-year-old into the examining room is breaking a law of some kind

Super annoyed with this office. I was 10 minutes late after driving 40 minutes in downpour rain. They said the doctor has a 10 minute late policy (even though we wait a long time to see the doctor) and refused to see me. She said I should have called (while I was driving in the rain?) to say I was going to be late. I wonder if I didn’t let the older woman go in front of me if they would have seen me since I would have only been 6 minutes late? Yes I was late and I acknowledge that but this is so ridiculous.

NEVER NEVER NEVER going back to this office!!!! I’ve been suffering stomach pains and bloating for a few months with several other symptoms. I went to my regular doctor to get blood work and ultra sound then was referred to see a Gastro. During my visit with Dr. Ahmed I felt like he was not listening to any of my concerns. He responded with “Well the two tests I would’ve ordered you already got” (blood work and ultra sound). He ended up prescribing me a medication to take 2 times a day for 4 weeks. He told me if my symptoms go away then I am “fine” and if not then we will have to do more invasive testing like a endoscopy. I left there very unsatisfied with his “solution” and felt like he did not listen to a word I said. I researched on my own the medication and what he told me. Without any background in the medical field I knew that this was not right at all. I went to another doctor this morning for a second opinion. I explained to her EXACTLY what I explained to Dr. Ahmed and came up with VERY VERY different solution for my issues.He basically wanted to treat me for acid reflux and have me take a medication for an entire month for something I do not need. At the very end of the call with my new doctor I explained that I went to Dr. Ahmed and what he prescribed me and she was SHOCKED. She said it’s not even close to any of the issues I am having. He is treating more stomach issues with no additional testing when the real issue lies in Small Intestines/Colon. That is what needs to be looked into. The new doctor walked me through exactly the testing and diet changes I will be doing. Dr. Ahmed literally did not listen to a word I said and just blindly prescribed me something so he didn’t have to do any further investigation. THATS A ZERO STAR DOCTOR IN MY BOOK. AWFUL.

I had a scheduled colonospy and endoscopy and followed prep instructions to the tee. I took the mirlax with crystal light and after 6 cups started throwing up. I called emergency line 3 x no returned call. I came in for procedure and informed them the situation.. showed pictures and they said I should be fine to the nurse. The doctor did not want to see my pictures just want to do the procedure. Well.. no fine want me to come back. Its hard having two young children who receive services weekly. I have a 3 yr old who get speech and a 6 yr old with ADHD and mild autism who gets lots of services. I am annoyed no one returned my call yesterday. Even more annoyed they were eager to do procedure without sending me home with different prep and come back today later on that day. I had a sitter for the day and a ride. It is hard scheduling these tests.When I spoke to the doctor... I asked him how was my CT scan from two weeks ago. He Said he has so many patients and doesnt remember. Then.. I asked him to speak to him again bc the first conversation I was gruggy.. that I was worried about the hermerriods and very short. I am annoyed and will not be getting another procedure for a while.. its hard finding sitters..

The staff at the front desk is rude, unprofessional and confused. They have cancelled moms appointments twice after we got there. I onverheard someone complaining about cancelled appointments as well. They dont know what theyre doing and a big turn off. I ended up taking my mom somewhere else.

I am beyond disappointed. I waited over a month for my appointment to only find out that I needed a referral once I arrived to it. It was too late at that point to get my referral sent over for this appointment. They said that they called and couldn’t leave a voicemail, but I called back and spoke to someone at the front desk the same day and all they wanted me to do was to confirm my appointment. This is peoples health that they are messing with by making these mistakes and then giving you an attitude when they (the front desk) are responsible for putting you in this situation in the first place. They messed up and I paid the consequences. The next available is in a month and I will not be returning here. Unprofessional and highly disappointing.

Dr. Disanti is the best, I go every 2 years for my colonoscopy, he went the extra step when i was having the procedure done, he thought he saw something and sure enough he did. Thank god he did I had stage 1 colon cancer. Because of him things could have been alot worse. I would total recommend this office, they care about there patients and go the extra step....

Do not use this office!! The office staff is extremely rude and unprofessional!! They are unable to keep simple schedules or speak professionally over the phone. Placed on hold for extended periods of time. Eventually was disconnected and had to call back. Again put on hold for extended period of time. I had a procedure schedule for 11/23, however, when I called to confirm, they did not have me on the schedule. They sent me info in the mail about prepping for the procedure along with covid testing procedures and date, but cancelled me without notifying me. Do yourself a favor and look for a new Doctor ASAP!!!!

Professional and caring staff that are on top of their game and take pride in their work. From the moment I walked into this office I was welcomed by the courteous staff that confirmed my appointment for which I had a minimal wait. The nurse that took my vitals and recorded my information was courteous, friendly and professional. My physician Dr DiSanti is very caring, professional, did not rush me, addressed all my concerns and provided me with additional information relevant to my health.

Dr Sorbi is great. Very thorough. Never rushed. Never an extreme wait like other doctors. I’ve been a patient for 4 years and it’s always been consistent. The whole office from top to bottom is professional and friendly. Other doctors and offices should use them as a model!!!
