Horrible . The staff sets your appointment time and hour and half PLUS before your procedure which makes no sense! Especially after the day & night you went through before your procedure. The procedure staff is snarky if you inquire about your time being wasted. I have never actually met Dr Rao though I’ve been coming here for years! Rest assured I will not be back to this location or Dr. Dr Rao and other Drs here at Digestive Disease should manage their staff and office procedures BETTER.
Dr. Rao and the entire group of Doctors and staff at this facility is a rare combination of knowledge and compassion as well as respect that is sadly becoming rare for healthcare providers these days. Dr. Rao and his staff always puts me at ease and the care they provide has allowed me to enjoy nearly all the foods I love without discomfort. My digestive system was a mess, but now it's literally a "piece of cake". Thanks for the professional and caring staff, I have one less stressful thing in my life.
I highly recommend Dr. Rao and his whole group. I have been seeing him for 3 years with complicated issues. He has addressed every issue and has gone above and beyond to help me, and I’m so much better now. I had a Doctor from my hometown check him out. He’s the best and most qualified in this tri- county area. His staff is awesome! Thank you for everything Dr. Rao and everyone on staff including the other Doctors.
He did endoscopy upper. When I was pushed into the room he was falling asleep in a chair. I followed up with him a few days later about the bowel problem that was still ongoing. He started giving me laxatives which I had been on for the whole time. I said do I have to live on laxatives? I have been going there for over a month was seeing his PA with my problems he said you just have come in here for the first time with this. I was floored. He did not seem to comprehend anything I was saying.
I have been treated by Dr Rao for many years for my stomach problems. He has always taken great care of me.
Although I have not met Dr Rao, I trust he is overseeing my health needs as they are very serious. The PA I have seen comes across as very knowledgeable of my condition, even tho it is someone different each time. I would like to have just one, if I can’t see the doctor himself. Other than that, the clinic itself is very comfortable and I feel right at “ home”.
Just a really horrible bedside manner. He has the listening skills of a preoccupied toddler and is incredibly condescending. He used pet names to refer to me and continued to make comments that indicated he has not even taken the time to read my file. Not only that, he seems woefully outdated in his medical research. I could not recommend him.
I had an endoscopy/colonoscopy done and aside from the horrible prep the night before, I had a great experience. I had an outstanding anesthetist who used diprivan and out I went! I slept hard and don't remember a thing. I've had 2 colonoscopies in the past where versed/fentanyl were used and both times I woke up during the procedure and felt some pain and horrible gas pains afterward. This time no gas WHATSOEVER and no pain! In and out in 2 hrs. Highly recommended for procedure. Haven't met dr.
Procedure went well. Visits were pleasant. Good follow-up with Dr. concerning my "distraction" outcome. Glad to have the colonoscopy done. Thanks.
