"Loved everyone there except for an extremely judgemental nurse after still dealing with the anesthetic after effects, very rude. Dr Orinion, Adam the anesthesiologist & the rest of the nursing staff were awesome though"
"Dr. James Jacob and his healthcare team are super professional and very helpful. I went here for a scheduled upper endoscopy procedure. Everyone including the scheduling lady, the person who asked me to sign waivers, and nurses were super polite and kind. The nurses who were accompanying me to operation room were so calm and also helped me calm down. Last time I was put in full anesthesia was when I was 7, so naturally I was quite nervous but the team was very helpful in calming me down. I didn’t even realize when they use the anesthesia but they told me it gets into effect in 20 seconds. I don’t remember any part of the procedure. They were so nice to call my boyfriend so he picks me up and also called him again to guide him which door to pick me up from my wheelchair. After the procedure, another very nice nurse helped me with checkout procedure and gave me apple juice. The unit uses Klara chat systems and I got timely responses regarding my questions before the procedure. I highly recommend Dr. James Jacob if you want to check any stomach related issues or want an expert opinion. Thanks a lot for your service."
"I had an awesome experience for my procedure at The Endoscopy Center. From check-in to pre-procedure, to procedure room, to recovery and departure, everything was top notch. Everyone was kind, courteous, efficient, and professional which put me at ease. I was happy to have my screening colonoscopy exam done by a highly skilled, experienced team with exceptional quality. Dr. Cheng is compassionate and caring in addition to being knowledgeable and technically skilled. Will 100% return here for my surveillance exams without hesitation."
"I was not happy with having this done a second time but this team was wonderful. They made me feel very much at ease. From the music to having everything explained in plain language. And joking around in the procedure room and Dr Crane going over results with granddaughter. If I ever have to have another gastro procedure it will be done by Dr Crane and team"
"This was my second appointment at the Endoscopy Center. Both appointments went very well. This was my first appointment with Dr Crane. He made the appointment as pleasant as possible . (if Colonoscopies can be pleasant😂) He was funny and answered all my questions. He's a keeper! His staff were also very warm and reassuring....they are also keepers!💞"
"The staff was very friendly and informative. Dr. Drake was thorough in his explanation of the procedure and the follow-up after. The anesthesiologist was also very thorough in explaining his part of the procedure. The entire staff was very professional! I would highly recommend Dr. Drake and his staff."
"Dr.Morelli is a very personable doctor, he takes the time to explain everything. Very rare now a days, he called me himself to explain the results. His staff is very good and they make you feel at ease."
"I have been more than once and every time has been very professional. It was very easy and they are very polite and positive. ( prep not so much) but I thank the doctor and all people involved. Thank you and God bless!"
"Dr Morelli and his team are very caring and professional. They made me feel comfortable and the procedure went smoothly. I was in and out in no time! I highly recommend."
"The staff was very warm and courteous. I had 2 procedures done. I was in when they said I would be, and out very quickly. I would definitely choose them for future procedures."
"After choking at home, I called the GI doctors' office during after hours. Although he didn't know me, Dr. Haynes took the call. He listened patiently, asked relevant questions, and gave me excellent medical advice. He concluded the call by telling me to go to the emergency room if I had additional choking and to call during office hours to make an appointment for an endoscopy. I felt better and didn't followup. I know GI doctors are overwhelmed by a shortage of doctors in their specialty area and the large number of folks needing GI support. However, he didn't drop my issue. I didn't followup, but he did. Iwas amazed that he had his office call and schedule an endoscopy. He then performed it with compassion and excellence - stretching my throat so THE LIFE THREATENING choking would not re-occur. I'm grateful to him and would highly recommend him. Thank you, Dr. HAYNES!!!"
"Best practice and best staff I've seen in a medical office. Staff and nurses are kind and answer calls and concerns quickly. Dr. Cheng and the staff make scary procedures more comforting. Very straightforward and kind!"
"My procedure went very well. The 10a appointment with very little wait before being taken back. The nursing staff were very professional and secure verifying my ID multiple times. The anesthesiologist explained her role and what to expect. Dr Vincent then came in to explain the procedure and options he needed answered to go forward. The procedure went off on timely manner with no issue. I felt very comfortable in all aspects. I was home and enjoying the day within 1 hour of the procedure. Highly recommend Dr Vincent and Indiana Gastro."
"Great experience w/ physician, nursing staff, and nurse anesthetist; clerks in admitting not as friendly; admitting cubicle/bed area way too small and claustrophobic, but staff very attentive so helps. Mandatory masks ridiculous: there are plenty of indiscrete mask removals and incorrect mask wearing that make the mask rule frivolous."
"Excellent visit everyone was enjoyable and very pleasant it was explained well and had photos of the complete procedure the Dr. Was fantastic the nurses was enjoyable and made you feel extremely comfortable"
"I was totally impressed with my care at Indianapolis Gastroenterology. All of my questions were answered and I was treated very respectfully and kept comfortable. I highly recommend them"

I feel very fortunate to have him as my gastroenterologist. I know I am going to receive the best of care."
"The staff was very friendly. Dr's bedside manner was great. I'm awaiting for my results from my biopsies. He played my mom's favorite song by Izzy in procedure room. She's been gone 12 years. I would definitely recommend Dr and this office staff."

"The Doctor was great it was fast and had great news he is the best I think everyone should see him and not worry about the out come have him check you out then talk options he is great"

"Very good experience with Shan Cheng he is one of the best doctors I have had the pleasure of meeting. His bedside manner is excellent. He really goes above and beyond. He clearly explains everything in a manner you can understand. I would trust him to do any procedure necessary. It’s rare to find a doctor like him these days."
"I was so nervous going in for my colonoscopy and endoscopy. I was on the verge of tears from how nervous and scared I was, but every single person I spoke with helped me feel better and they went above and beyond to help me be more comfortable. The anesthesiologist Kate and Dr Orion were two of the best. Kate assured me she has been doing this job for a long time and I was in good hands and they helped me by talking to me before I went under. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better team! Thank you so much!!💕"
"Very friendly staff and they make you feel comfortable. Willing to answer my questions and explain what the procedure was. Was quick and easy. Dr. Cheng was very through explaining with everything that was found and taken care of . Highly recommend for anyone with Barrettes or Acid Reflex."

"Dr. Orinion was extremely professional, very courteous, very empathetic… I only wish we could request who we get each time… But they are all so busy… But I’ve been with Indianapolis gastroenterology for years and have never gone wrong with any of the docs there!!"
"I highly recommend Dr. Michael Morelli, M.D. at Indianapolis Gastroenterology and Hepatology in St. Francis Hospital. He and his nurses always make me feel very comfortable and well informed."

"Dr Oinion was pleasant and thoughtful. He listened and understood the need of my visit to his office. The office staff was friendly and efficient. I felt my person and time were valued."
"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. Shan Cheng was amazing! I typically have to explain to people what Lynch syndrome is and why I have to get a colonoscopy so young but with him I didn’t! He was very attentive, professional, and nice!"
"To have a dr. Contact you after a long time about a concern he has, it was very refreshing that I had the rest done. I would be in a lot of pain now. The hernia I had repaired is starting to loosen up. I’m glad the Dr took the opportunity to research this and let me know I could have a problem later. Thank you soo much .."
"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."
"My first time meeting Dr. Drake, even though I’ve had multiple procedures over the years done at the facility. Dr. Drake was very personable, professional, and friendly. I did not get to spend a lot of time in conversation with him, but found him to be very efficient. The procedure went well without any complications and if I ever have to do it again, I would have Dr. Drake perform it."
"I was pleased that I was able to talk to Dr. Roberts before my procedure and asked him if he was going to stretch my throat because I just assumed they stretched it every time so he did and I know now to ask that from now on."
"Dr. Orion ion is simply the best! Skilled doctor with a great disposition with patients. Dr. Orion has been my gastroenterologist for over 15yrs and he always will be."
"My gastroenterologist retired so this was the first time I met Dr. Crane. He had a great bedside manner and I felt very comfortable with him. I will keep going to him for any future needs"
"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!"

"Aside from the prepping, everything was such a great experience, from the time I walked into the office until the time I left. Everyone was so nice and treated you with courtesy and respect. They made you feel at ease. Everyone introduced themselves and explained their role and what they were going to be doing. Doctor Drake introduced himself before the procedure asking if I had any questions or concerns. Within a blink of an eye it was all over. Dr. Drake met with me afterwards, explaining the results.
