Very calming and thorough in his explanation and conclusion from my colonoscopy. I need to schedule endoscopy this year, but having a hard time getting an appointment to see him. Hopefully soon.

Dr plevas office has never answered the phone since we began working with him. Always goes to voice mail. Sometimes doesn’t return call or days later will call back. Comes across as condescending and pompous at times. Talks at you. Not with you. Sits behind the computer and doesn’t face patient directly. Can only see his eyes and top of head. Types on computer keyboard while we’re talking and is not attentive at all. Also gave us a paper of what foods not to eat. Not genuine. Wont go back. Will seek another gastro doc. Lucky... read more

After undergoing a Colonoscopy and Endoscopy, I was given no real diagnosis and no suggestions other than a piece of paper with a list of some foods not to eat. I could have found this on the internet. He didn't seem very concerned.....

Dr. Pleva and his office staff (Especially Taylor) are a fantastic group of medical professionals. During the summer, I was SO sick and kept getting bounced around from physician to physician with very little luck or help, when I was finally told to see a gastroenterologist no one could get me in for months and months, I was essentially bed ridden from pain. When I finally made the call to Dr. Pleva's Office, Taylor took the seriousness of my situation and treated me with so much care, respect and dignity. Within a day I had... read more

I have been treated by Dr Pleva for several years. Had an appointment with him today with a new symptom. He explained in detail what he thinks the issue is. Very patient! Did not rush through appointment. His girl, Taylor is great! Friendly, compassionate & professional!

I don't know why the negative reviews on here. The staff was very friendly. The Doctor was very friendly, even funny at times. He was thorough; asked good questions, listened well to mine. I've been to alot of doctors over the years and he stands out as one of the good ones.

I was surprised by all the negative reviews. Im happy to say we had a great experience with Dr Pleva and the staff. My dad came from TX and while here, he attended to him well and after they left back home, he followed up with a phone call to see how he was doing. Just because someone has a dry personality does not make them rude. What I can say is he knows his practice. He listened well and answered all our questions, we never felt rushed. He is so good, my mom is coming next month from TX to see him. We honestly cant say a... read more
