Dr. Dettwiler and staff did a good job for my procedure. I would go to Dr. Dettwiler for the procedure again. It is scary to be put to sleep during a procedure and they did a good job of explaining the positives and negatives of the procedure.

In the last year, I have learned more about my condition and received more thorough care and courtesy from Dr. Dettwiler ( and his Assistant Linda Dewitt) than I did from 4 other gastroenterologists in 3 states over the last 15 years. The office staff manage things very well, also kind and considerate.

Dr. Detwiler and his staff are very courteous and always helpful. They never leave you waiting in the waiting area for a long length of time. Always very friendly. He always explains what he is going to do and always makes one feel comfortable and in good hands. His Nurse Practioner is very helpful and friendly.
