Reviews
Excellent physician. Asks leading questions to understand your medical issue. Makes reasonable suggestions to help the patient help themself.
Had a good experience with Dr. Opinion. He explained everything that I needed to know about my situation. I was told if I had any problems, to call his office & he would handle it from there. A very friendly doctor who seemed to care about my problem.
No waiting time, kind and listened to my issues.
Caring, expert physician. Explains things clearly. And great staff
I was very pleased with my visit to Dr. Orinoin, the staff were all friendly and professional. I was called back after a very short wait time.
Excellent, took the time to listen to me.
They did an excellent job, after 45 of these procedures this was the best. Feedback from the biopsies was very timely.
I ve never had an issue with the facility nor Dr Orinion.....both are precise with their scheduling and the procedure....I won't go anywhere else to have a colonoscopy done.....Thank you to staff and Dr. Orinion....you all are the best!!!!
He listened to what had to say and offers some hope for my IBS. Only thing they did get wrong was my pharmacy location. Mine is at 3109 meridian on 135
Was Avery good experience. Professional, caring, with great communication.
I had a wonderful experience. Fast service. Was scheduled the same day.

Great people made a pleasant experience.
Everything went well and very professional
Dr Orinion is the best GI doctor. He listens to my concerns/issues then develops a plan of action. He has an awesome bedside manner and personality.
Dr. Orinion is great. Highly recommend him for any GI issues. Staff did a wonderful job before and after the endoscopy.
Super efficient,very friendly
Doctor Orinion was willing to listen to my experiences with a different GI. He made me feel comfortable and made what he was saying understandable. He did not talk down to me like other GI doctors.
I am very pleased I got in and out so fast
Excellent physician who listens to his patients.
