"Dr. Drake always takes the time to explain things to me and answer questions. He takes the time to help you find the least expensive pharmacy for your medication. He is also straight forward and honest while being very kind."
"Have seen bad reviews for this doc. That has not been my experience. He has excellent communication skills. Listens and responds better than any doctor I have seen. It's a big practice with lots of employees. Some are better at their job than others. Give them a chance!"
"After years of misdiagnosis, someone told me about Dr. Cheng. From the first visit he knew how to treat my symptoms and gave me a correct diagnosis. I've been seeing him for several years now. He always takes time to listen. His staff is also great to work with!"
"I judge visits by time spent reviewing conditions and how well things were explained. Both of these were handle very well with a professional kind approach."
"Dr Crane was extremely helpful. I felt very comfortable sharing everything I had been struggling with with him. He was very compassionate and genuine. After some discussion he was able to figure out what was going on and helped facilitate the resolution. He provided me with a referral for a surgeon and within two weeks we had resolved my issues. Thank you Dr.Crane!"

He also seems readily accessible should a later need arise. I would highly recommend him to anyone having gastrointestinal problems."
"I recently met with Steph Scalf. She has been monitoring my condition for maybe a couple of years. She had started me on a different medication which seems to really be helping. I was disappointed to hear that she is leaving. I will miss her!"
"The NP I saw was awesome. It was my first time and she was very attentive and answered my questions and made great suggestions. She took the time and sat with me and listened with her eyes on my and not the computer. I appreciate that most of all. I'm so glad I got in to see her. She was absolutely out my mind at ease and was ready to jump right in to my issue. I appreciate her so much."
"I’ve been a patient for 40 years. There were 3 doctors when I was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease in 1980. They have at least 20 now. They are still very caring, the staff is excellent. I enjoy getting in quickly with the nurse practitioner and they are quick to get back to you to answer questions on the online portal."

He is very intelligent and caring and open for whatever I need to talk about. I asked him about other doctors here at MHP and he shared his opinion. I'm very pleased to have him for my doctor. He ordered bloodwork and called me with results the next morning! I appreciated that so much! I'm still waiting for my other doctors to call me back that I left a message with yesterday???

"This was not my first rodeo with having a colonoscopy but this was by far THE BEST one I’ve had! I have to go again in 3 years and while I’m not a fan of colonoscopies, I know I’m not going to dread having it like I have in times past. Dr. Vincent and his staff for the gold!! I took the SUTAB for the prep (highly recommend - google for a coupon because it’s expensive without one) and whatever it was (propafale (sp?)) they used to knock me out made a HUGE difference also!!"
"Dr. Vincent and the staff (nurses, anesthesiologists and front desk) at Indy Gastro are always wonderful! However the scheduling office, which I believe is a separate entity, is usually quite frustrating to deal with due to long hold times that often result in just leaving a voicemail, hoping for a return call."
"Lindsay Mueller, PA, was very pleasant, professional and took her time to listen to me. I did not feel rushed at all. I was also very pleased that they were on time with my appointment and the receptionist was pleasant and helpful."
"I’ve been a patient of Dr. Drake and Indy Gastro for 10 years now. Dr. Drake, his NP, and his PA are phenomenal. They have wonderful bedside manner and are always thoughtful and considerate of your concerns. They always do their best to answer any question you have and if they don’t have an immediate answer for you, they will find one and follow up with you. I can’t speak for other physicians and their staff within Indy Gastro, but Dr. Drake and his staff are the best gastro specialists I’ve ever been a patient of. They’ve been a joy to work with and have done wonders in getting my GI issues under control. One complaint that I share along with many others is their scheduling system. A few years ago, I used to be able to call the main office or be transferred directly to someone in the scheduling department. Now, when you call in and press the appropriate key to be transferred to scheduling, it constantly rings for 5-10 minutes or so with background information and then you get sent to a voicemail. Your call never gets returned, either. It’s a complaint that many current patients share along with some staff that I spoke to at my most recent appointment. In order to get connected, always press 0. You’ll be transferred to records and they can actually connect you to someone instead of the scheduling line. I highly advise that Indy Gastro look into this and do some modifications to their phone system. Adding online scheduling and/or an online scheduling form would be helpful. Though the fork would only be helpful if you actually received a call back."
"I had a very helpful and informative appointment with Madison Maloof. She suggested some new ways to deal with my problem and asked me to update her regarding the results."
"I love this group of professionals. Stephanie Scalf is very thorough and writes instructions for me. She’s very easy to talk with and takes the time you need for exams etc."
"I had my 1st appointment with Dr.Cheng and I am glad I found him. He read my chart notes from my prior Gastrointestinal Doctor and I felt like he knew me because he took the time to read my history. There aren't many Doctors around like this anymore."
"I have been coming here for over 30 years- From the doctors to the PA’s and all the staff- they are all friendly and attentive, answer every question I have and take the time to explain and find solutions."
"My office visit was great but haven't gotten a call back yet in a week and half to get my capsule endoscopy scheduled on my small colon, even after I called them and had to leave a message 2 days ago, still waiting!! Need it done badly, my oncologist has been pushing it and seems to be taking forever, for any doctor since April and it is October now!"
"My mother, Patricia Rose and I were able to meet with Dr Roberts this last week. He is a pleasure to speak with. He had reviewed her case and was able to give her a realistic evaluation. An additional medication regimen may be helpful and if it doesn't work out we are to contact his office (which was so helpful) before the 3 month follow up appointment. Thank you."
"Called me on time for my appointment very friendly and knowledgeable and was very honest didn't try to get me to do something right away to make money and I respect them for that. My nurse was super sweet and my doctor was very nice and direct."
"Dr Cheng & all of his great staff came through and did somewhat of a meet and greet. Then they would tell me their roll in the process. Then they took me back to do my procedure’s. They were great it didn’t take very long at all and I was ready to go and felt great & was ready to go it seemed very quickly!"
"My experience with Dr Drake was great. He was genuinely concerned with my medical problems and seemed willing to use his knowledge and expertise while addressing everything."
"I highly recommend Dr. Cheng. I am a very complicated case and he has helped me so much. He really takes his time and makes sure to answer all of my questions in detail. He is great at explaining his plans and each procedure as well. He is also willing to work with other doctors to come up with solutions for treatments. The office is also wonderful. I have made many phone calls and the office staff and nurses are quick to respond and answer all questions. They are also wonderful at getting refills submitted quickly and working with insurance companies to get medicines approved fast. I can’t thank this group enough for all they have done for me this past year!"
"Dr Jacobs was courteous and willing to switch my in office visit to a telehealth call without hesitation. He asked me what problems I was having and advised me what could be done. He was very cordial and prompt in listening to what I had experienced."
"Dr. was very thorough in his examination asking lots of questions and explaining the procedures in detail. He answered all my questions and was very professional and courteous. I would highly recommend Dr Morelli."
"I’ve been a patient at Indy Gastro for several years now. My latest visit was with Dr. Roberts. He was very helpful in describing my procedure and detailed about the outcome. I highly recommend Dr. Jason Roberts."
"I needed a colonoscopy and endoscopy asap and no one could get me in quickly. I called in the morning one day (early enough to start the prep) and had the tests done the next day. Dr was professional and had a great bedside manner. Very pleased"
"Dr. Drake was very kind and explained everything about my procedure. I felt very safe in his care and in the care of the nurses and anesthesiologist."
"Dr Roberts really listened to me and understood what I was feeling. He then went on to recommend treatment of my current symptoms. He has a great bedside manner. I would definitely recommend him to anyone."
"Dr. Crane has been my gastroenterologist for several years now. He is an exceptional physician who really cares about his patients. I would highly recommend Dr. Crane and his team."

"Very easy once I was able to get an appointment. Great experience with surgery Staff and Dr. Cheng. This is the 5th time for a procedure with Dr. Cheng and I would highly recommend him. He is very good at answering my questions before and after a procedure."
"I felt very well cared for through the entire process. I was able to get into the office quickly. The office staff, nurses, and doctor were all great. I had never been under anesthesia before and everyone kept me feeling reassured and safe."
"Wonderful drs here. They are very sympathetic to my needs and has helped me in trying to figure out what my problems are. They have a great bedside manner and always listen to my concerns."
"Ok place. Problem, nobody answers phone. As a new patient, I had 1 question I need answered b4 my visit. I attempted for 3 weeks, different times of the day to speak w/someone. On the 2nd week of attempting with no success my call, I left a voice message. It ask not to repeat a message, you will be contacted within 48 hours 👍🏻The 3rd week not reply, I left a second message 🦗🦗🦗I called the 4th week, left a message, I stated my reason for call, the many attempts, the # of messages. I also stated, "If you refuse to return my call, just cancel my appointment (I was being fallacious) Guess what, my appointment was canceled. No call to apologize for the poor line of returning my call, nothing. I am happy to report, I did get my scheduled appoint back that 8am. However, it was not without me seeming as a Drama Queen. Sometimes you just have to go there. I am schedule for a follow up procedure, I also love Kelly Cole PA ~ she is the best !! I also thank the gentleman who is the office manage and the lady at the front desk. Unfortunately, they received my complaints. I owe them Starbucks. The office was clean, n the patient visits was moving forward. All is good now that I've been connected to there patient portal."

"I went to Indiana Gastroenterology for a 2nd opinion. Due to having SIBO (Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth). I was diagnosed with it in March 2022. I am currently now getting the help and treatment for it. I was treated with professional respect and understanding that this is an serious infection that shouldn't be just put to the side like IU Health did. I currently see Dr. Drake. I like him alot. He took his time and I didn't feel rushed at all. He immediately noticed my issue with my stomach, looking 3 months pregnant all the time. (Which I am not part of the infection always bloated and hard stomach.) I believe what helped me during the appointment was having all my paperwork from another doctor and documenting what issues I had to help decide what needs to be done."
"Absolutely LOVE the staff, they are the best. The Nurses are very intuitive and personable. Dr. Drake explained everything before and the aftercare as well!!"
"Very little wait time before seeing Doctor Crane. He was was very attentive during my appointment and was familiar with my recent CT scans. Dr Crane answered all of my questions relating to the scans and my condition."

"Dr. Cheng is awesome!!! Very nice and professional!! Explains procedures and take very good care of his patients!! I am very appreciative of his care for my health!!!"

"My experience was very easy and worry free. Bedside manner was impeccable. Doctor, Nurses, and Staff at Major Hospital are caring and make you feel comfortable. Would definitely recommend."
"I recently had a colonoscopy by Dr. Orinion, and would highly recommend him! He spent time with me to explain everything about this procedure & the risks vs. the benefits. He then explained his findings to my husband & I, even though I don’t remember any of it! It was all over & I was home the same morning. It’s so refreshing to find a doctor that is so skilled, and has a great “bedside manner” too! I must also say his staff was very kind & courteous. Linda G"
"Great doctor! He took the time to listen, he explained things and I felt like he was invested in my issues rather than just rushing through the appointment. I’m glad I have him to help me manage my issues."

I was so impressed with him that later when I needed a Dr in his field that he was the only one I wanted for my own Dr. He is not only an expert in his field but is very caring and compassionate to not only his patients but to all those around him. I recommend him highly to anyone who needs a really good Dr."

"This was my first colonoscopy at age 47. I was going to wait until 50 until I had a hospice patient of mine pass from colon cancer at 50 a few months ago. I promised her I would not wait. The entire staff was amazing from the waiting room to recovery and made it clear as to what would be taking place. The anesthesiologist, Dr. Hall prayed with me and Dr. Haynes explained the procedure thoroughly. I highly recommend this group."
"He is a wonderful & caring doctor. He diagnosed my gastroparesis about ten years ago and I have gone to him ever since. Since there is no cure for gp he never gives up on me and is always trying to find something out there to help me. He is the best."

"Very professional doctor and proactive in solving my issues. Listens to my concerns and does the necessary testing to diagnosis. Also stays on schedule I never wait in this office."
"Dr. Jacob recently performed his fifth colonoscopy on me. I have used his services for more than 20 years. The polyps he removed over the years were prevented from becoming cancerous, and I'm convinced a little discomfort every five years contributed to my longevity. Needless to say I hardily recommend his professionalism, and skills."
"I've been going to Indianapolis Gastroenterology for over 35 years. Dr. Cheng has been my physician for about 10 years. He's very knowledgeable and professional. I've had multiple dialations, scopes and Colonoscopys. All have gone very smoothly. I have complete trust in his abilities. I would recommend him very highly."

"I had Hep C for over 20 yrs. When I was told there was a cure for Hep C at first I was leary about at first.

I was a little worried about my new person but She treated me as though I've been seeing her the hold time. So my experience has been very Pleasant ."
"Everyone whom I have had dealings with at Indy Gastroentrologist’s has been understanding, friendly, and courteous. They have always responded with any questions I might have in a friendly and professional manner be it through their convenient portal by phone or in person, can’t say enough about my Dr. Erin Murphy she has no problem spending time and answering any questions I might have."
"I have to say that they are the most extensive team of doctors who took the time to talk about my issues. They listened to me and gave advise about test they suggested. They left the choice up to me and continue to work with me. I would tell anyone who has these kind of issues to check them out."
"Very nice people, took the time to spend with me didn’t get in a hurry to get out of the office. I was most appreciative that he took the time to talk with me and explain everything."
"Very professional, clean medical facility. The staff is very friendly. My only issue is that it is so hard to call in for an appointment; long hold times. I was fortunate that someone called me because my appointment needed to be changed."

"I have had Crohn’s disease for about 22 years and have always struggled to find a GI doctor that I trust and I feel really hears my concerns and needs. The very first time I met Dr. Morelli he has super friendly, inquisitive, made small talk (yay bedside manner!), asked lots of questions about my past treatment, and already began to brainstorm a treatment plan and other possibilities for symptoms. I left feeling confident and at ease that I have found a GI doctor that I can FINALLY trust and feel happy with."
"Dr Buckly and all the staff have always went over and above to take care of all my needs. The scheduling staff is always very courteous and helpful. The check in staff at the surgery clinic always handles things in a prompt manner, the nurses are so kind and informative and anesthetist could not be more caring. I have been a patient of Dr Buckly for many years. I first met him in the Beech Grove St Francis Emergency Room. He followed an issue I continued to have for many months until a resolution was provided and going forward he continues to see me as needed for follow up. I could not be more pleased with the care provided."
"I have had Barrett's Esophagus for several years and use Indy Gastro to monitor and control my condition. They are always friendly and efficient. I highly recommend them."

"Dr. Crane is a really good doctor. The only issue I have is that you can't get someone to answer the phone if you have to call in. The other day I had an appointment for the Shelbyville location. I saw that I was going to be a little late so I tried calling. The phone rang for over 5 minutes. I then called back and left a message on his nurses voice mail. When I got there the receptionist told me that I was going to have to reschedule but she said that she would go ask him since I was there and I explained the situation to her. He agreed to see me and actually that was one of the best visits I've had since he became my doctor."
"Dr.Cheng is the most wonderful Dr he listens to his patients concerns and thoughts he has remarkable beside manners I would recommend Dr Cheng to all my friends my family also is s patient of his as well..The staff is very friendly as well..."
"From the moment I walked through the doors at St. Frances and entered the GI office I was warmly greeted by the front desk receptionist. From my admitting nurse, my anestheologist and my post op nurse they were are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. My highest praise goes to Dr. Cheng though. I lost my father to colon cancer in 2017'. He was only 73 and passed 3 months after his colonoscopy which revealed a malignant mass in his lower colon. I was with my father when he had his colonoscopy and the doctor found the mass. I have struggled emotionally ever since. I am 45, having my very first colonoscopy during Covid and my family was not permitted to be in the office. I completely and totally understand but nevertheless it was a hard decision to follow through. Ultimately I proceeded with my procedure and upon my very first encounter with Dr. Cheng he treated me with compassion, sympathy over the untimely passing of my father but most importantly he made sure to reiterate that he was glad I decided to have my colonoscopy as it was a great way to honor my father. He consoled me as I wept and assured me I was in good hands and that they would take great care of me. I can honestly say over my life span I have had several surgeries and procedures but this was by far my best experience and procedure I have ever done. I am so very grateful I decided to keep my appointment and follow through. Hands down I highly recommend Dr. Cheng for not only his knowledge and compassion but for his bedside manner. Since my colonoscopy I have done nothing else but sing his praises as well as the staff at his office! Fantastic experience even though it was 2020' and Covid restrictions were in place. Best of luck to you and your loved ones and I hope your experience was as great as mine!"
"Dr.Cheng was both personable and professional towards my wife and I during her checkup, being asian my wife sometimes relies on me to be with her during medical examinations and he okayed this and understood that I was her advocate and respected that."
"I appreciate so much the care I received from Drs. Roberts, Morelli and the rest of the staff at Indy Gastro. I underwent two ERCP procedures with follow up. After the second it was their concern that I needed a second opinion for my particular set of unresolved symptoms. They did not hesitate to make the referral recommendation. I appreciate their discretion in the matter."

"Dr. Drake actually cares about his patients. I have a unique situation where I travel for my work and Dr. Drake agreed to follow me via telehealth. I get the necessary blood work done wherever I am at and I have agreed to come to Indy for my colonoscopy. I really appreciate him continuing to follow my care. I think he is an excellent doctor and feel really comfortable with him. And his staff is right on top of things. Any time I have questions, they respond ASAP."
"Everyone at Dr. Haynes office was excellent. They were all very friendly. Dr. Haynes and PA Samantha were both knowledgeable and easy to talk to. Overall great experience."

"Not my regular doctor but took the time to review my case and make me feel comfortable with procedures. Staff was very efficient. Didn't spend a lot of time waiting in preop like I have before. Nurse anesthetist did a great job. First time I wasn't sick and non functional for days post op due to anesthesia. Would recommend him and staff to anyone wanting to have these procedures."

"I have been seeing Dr. Sperl for several years. Could not ask for a more compassionat doctor. He completely understands, even if you may not know exactly what to say. Takes time to listen and also to explain your situation. He definately is an asset to the IGH group. Donna Cochran"
"Great Dr would highly recommend her to anyone. When I went to her I was literally almost dead and my GI Dr I had before was doing nothing to help me. I had lost over 100lbs in 6months time. So if you want or need a great GI Dr I would highly recommend her !!!!!!!!!"

"I am very pleased with the care I receive from Dr. Vincent. He listens to what I am telling him and tries every other avenue before going with a diagnosis that he truly doesn’t want to put in someone’s chart especially if there is no cure for that diagnosis. We both have agreed that my diagnosis is not something that he wants to say on the record yet so we have tried many different routes to see if that fixes it. Nothing we have done works yet but I understand why we’re doing it because if I have what we both think I have there is no cure just symptom care. So I truly love having Dr Vincent as my gastroenterologist!"
"I have been seeing Dr. Morelli for several years and gone through some times that are not the easiest. However I have always had confidence in my Doctor that he cared enough to listen to me and my problems. I am glad to say I’m on a more common ground with good days and bad. I am happy to say no matter what Dr. Morelli and his staff will be there when I need them."
"Dr. David Pound is a skilled physician and a man of integrity. He is loving and kind and smart and thorough and models the behaviors and skills we all hope to find in a physician."
"Dr. Haynes is Amazing! Both he and his staff are professional as well as very proactive for their patients. Follow up calls and answers for all of my questions were always taken care of in a timely manner.. I won't use anyone else for my gastrointestinal needs.. Top Notch physician and staff. Special shout out to Kirsten! She made me feel very comfortable with the situation and was always positive and helpful."
"The level of professionalism was comforting. From checking in to being assisted to my car. The procedure was explained at every step. I appreciated how each of the staff confirmed they were talking to the correct patient. Everyone was pleasant, patient and friendly. I thought Dr. Brown taking time to chat before the procedure was a great personal and reassuring touch ."
"Dr. ORINION is intent in achieving goals appropriate to a patients diagnosis. He is kind, caring, intuitive, and willing to go the extra mile to make the patient feel heard and understood."
"Such a kind and caring Dr! Called me personally on a Sunday to give me my results. Not his nurse, but him!!!

Will miss him as he retires .but I trust him to leave me in capable hands Good luck and best wishes. With my gratitude"
"Dr. Cheng was very attentive and very kind and explained everything to me. He is very knowledgeable and prescribed a medicine that has changed my outlook on my day. I am so happy that my brother had checked him out otherwise I would not be this happy. Thank you Dr. Cheng for having a plan."
"Dr. was nice, informative, honest, acceptant of my limitations and gave options that may or may not be a way to get the test required complete without a trip to the ER again. Just knowing I have to drink ridiculous amounts of fluids with additives that altered the way I now have to eat, and swallow, give me reservations that in 21st there isn't yet a non invasive test for colin related issues. As a life long IT person, I find ways to enlighten end users to apply tech in every aspect of life, not just for business. Someone should take some tech and invent a new way to do these necessary tests, I can't afford to loose any more body mass at barely 100 lbs. Has to be other patients that this affects this way. No reflection on Dr., this area of medicine is my least favorite. I've not got here on my own, medicine for a condition I did not have, gave me diverticulitis which a new list of items arose. I will make the next appointment...in a good time frame."
"I was referred to Dr. Morelli about two or so years ago! I adore the nurses in this location as well as him! A phenomenal group! I would definitely recommend Dr. Morelli at Indiana Gastroenterology."

"I found Dr. Haynes to be a caring and personable physician. He spent actual time with me discussing my issues, and wasted no time with testing. His care probably saved me from colon cancer . Highly recommend."
"Dr. Frank P. Trojan, is the best of the best, he has save my life or than I could count, I suffer from acute chronic pancreatitis, also liver problems, ibs, had these things for 28 years, that's how long he and his group have taken care of me, he is a awesome Dr.. He's not just a Dr. He's a friend I love him as a friend a d a Dr..😉"
