Southern Gastroenterology Associates

We have been with this group of doctors for quite some time and I must say that the front office and the back office staff are really nice. They are attentive and efficient and most of all Dr. Patel is awesome. Dr. Patel listens to his patients and is very knowledgeable. I would recommend him to anyone that needs a good gastroenterologist!

At first, I had difficulties doing the advanced check in on line. But, I went in early and filling it out off line was easy.
Courteous and professional and friendly describes to staff and doctor I was blessed to have serve me. All concerns and questions I had were answered with confidence. Southern Gastroenterology certainly has my thanks. No doubt the procedure will go equally well.

I've been seeing Dr. Patel for More than 15 years and he has did so much for me with my health. And I'm very very very thankful for the treatment that he has done for me. I can truly say that he has done so much for me with my health I wouldn't change him for a nother doctor. I feel that God sent him to me when I was so so so sick,,i couldn't eat,walk, and now I'm able to a lot of things that I couldn't do. Thank U so much for all U have done for me.

I had my first visit with the office yesterday. The ladies who checked me in were so sweet and helpful. Dr Salim was awesome, He sat down and took his time with me, and listened to everything I had to say. The staff who attended to me while I was there was very friendly. Definitely a great experience!

Last visit to the office we heard a lovely voice singing at the reception, what a surprise! Time waiting, as short as it was went quickly. Dr. Kukler is a no nonces, to the point kind of a man, perfect for the occasion and we, me and my husband and now my friend trust him as a skillful Docktor.

Dr. Owen has the best bedside manner I have experienced in years! I have great doctors, but she is awesome. So reassuring before setting up a colonoscopy, not at all judgmental, offered relief for another issue that I didn't know she dealt with. I tried to give this a six-star rating but automated systems don't accept exceptions now, do they?

I highly recommend Dr. Salim at Southern Gastroenterology Associates. His expertise, pleasant demeanor, and ability to communicate complex information clearly make him an excellent choice for anyone in need of his specialized services. The staff at the facility are equally impressive, ensuring a positive experience for every patient. Regardless of the reason for your visit, choosing Southern Gastroenterology Associates will undoubtedly leave you satisfied and well taken care of.

I had to get my colonoscopy done here. The nurses were phenomenal and made me feel at easy with their sense of humor and professionalism. Dr.Rutledge answered my questions effectively and did a great job I felt minimal bloating after and was an easy procedure overall.

This was my first visit. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I didn't feel rush when Dr Salim came in the room. I felt comfortable being there.

Friendly staff. Doctor Schoor was very friendly and took the time to answer all questions and explain the issue I was having and the resolution in detail. He went over my past visits with me and was extremely helpful. One of the best Doctors I have had.

Had an appointment to schedule a colonoscopy. Had a great deal of anxiety as this is not a real pleasant kind of appt. However, I was met with calm smiles and compassion. The physician was so kind, comforting and helpful. He acted like I was the only patient he was seeing that day, gave me all the time I needed. Answered all my questions and assured me he would take good care of me. I left the appointment with a very good feeling and a smile!

No complaints at all! The front desk staff were super friendly and Dr. Patel was awesome. He listens to his patients and thoroughly explains about the plan of care and procedures. People at this place are professional and genuinely care for their patients.

My meeting with Dr. Marcelle Owens - gastroenterologist specialist went very smoothly and with great professional attention in all aspects of my preparations for my upcoming medical procedure.
I can also give many thanks to the nurse in the care team of Mrs. doctor who conducted my medical visit efficiently and in the correct scheduled time.
I’ll greatly recommend the entire care team to anyone needs.

This is an awesome place. I have seen Dr. Kulkarni for over 20 years and he is wonderful. When you leave his office you know everything about your diagnosis in layman’s terms, no confusion on what you need to do after you leave his office.

Dr Salim took the time to listen to me and ordered test to find out what is going on, and started making changes to my meds already. I've had this problem for a while, and my old GI Dr wouldn't do anything to find out what's going on, or how we can start treating it. I'm so thankful that I found him, and that I can get back to a normal life now. The office staff is awesome too!

Dr Tanya Rutledge is an amazing doctor. She's been my GI for years and have no intention of changing her. She's professional, knowledgeable, approachable and understanding and very pleasant.
The staff at this location is personable, the nurses is phenomenal. Just great experience overall. "Top notch service"
I ❤ my health care provider.

Very confident doctor and nurse and staff. New doctor for me and I felt relaxed after meeting her. I’m still having trouble with the portal but. I’d rather speak to a person anyway

Great group. Been using them for my gastro issues for years. Thanks for always a wonderful experience.

Personnel from receptionist to nurse who is responsible for after care and discharge were all professional, personal and caring. Procedure was flawless (what I could remember), Dr. Patel took his time to explain the procedure results and answer my questions to my satisfaction. Great group to work with.

My husband was the patient and said his visit and procedure went very well. He was made to feel very comfortable and relaxed. The techs and anesthetist treated him like family. Would give more stars if possible!!
