Testimonials

Everyone was so courteous & efficient , I was nervous and they eased my concerns right away.

Dr. Shah and his staff were very considerate and helpful with my visit, he listened to my health problems and very helpful in solving some of them!!

the doctor explained what would

I felt like Dr Gallahan listened to me before making a game plan to go forward. He was very thorough

Informative. He explained everything in a non medical way so I could understand. Great bedside manners

He was very informative. I liked how he handled my questions.

This is a new experience for us. The staff was all very helpful and answered all of our questions and eased our mind about the process. We look forward to this new learning experience.

Dr Sandhu was pleasant and thorough. I enjoyed the medical exchanges and dialogue to understand the nature of the visit. I look forward to more medical exchanges.

I have no issues with Dr. Gallahan at all. I have been seeing him for a while and there have been absolutely no problems with him at all. My issue is with the scheduling staff. I received a voicemail from someone asking me to call back and ask for her b/c she had a cancellation and could get me in. I called back later the same morning and asked for her but the person who answered the phone said she was busy and she would help me. I told her I was told to speak to the person who had called me. She again said she would help me b/c she knew why I was calling. She said I could not get an appointment. I told her l was told there had been a cancellation and to speak directly with the one who had called me. She said there had not been a cancellation at all and sorry she could not help me. Maybe she was telling the truth but I would have rather heard that from the person I was trying to talk to. Maybe this isn't the correct place to write this, but at least I was able to vent my frustration. Again...this has absolutely nothing to do with Dr. Gallahan. I will continue to see him in the future.

Good communication prior to colonoscopy. No complications.

Dr Mashiana was very friendly, thorough and professional as always. I am confident he understands my condition and cares about my treatment. I was also pleasantly surprised that my time waiting was considerably shorter than usual, though I still contend that patient wi-fi access should be standard in ALL doctor offices. Richmond Gastro still seems to resist this idea which baffles me.

They were very friendly and fast

This is my first visit with Dr. Adams. Everything went as expected and on time. i also received follow up communication via patient portal and phone call

My experience was very informative and direct to the point I’m very satisfied with the outcome

I have been to many Gastroenteritis over the years for Crohn's disease and Dr Flynn is by far the very best!! He actually listens to my questions and concerns. Imagine a Dr who listens to his patients! The office is far from my home, but it is well worth the journey! His team is absolutely wonderful as well. Christiana and Marsha are so kind and caring and make sure my questions are always answered with a call back or have Dr Flynn call. I hope to always stay with this Dr and his staff!!!

He's very polite and gives excellent service

Very caring knowledgeable doctor

Being a new patient, I've found that Dr. Hoque has been very helpful and thorough to diagnosis and give me a game plan to treat my stomach issues. I hope together we can have a answer for me. THANKS.

Dr Basi has the utmost knowledge in his field. I sincerely thank him and his staff for everything.

Dr Sharma was very thoughtful and worked to get quick test results which I appreciated.

New doctor for me. Listened, addressed my problems, and scheduled necessary testing.

Everything was done quickly and effeciently

Once I arrived at the facility I had a good experience. Dr. Sandhu is great at what he does, very personal and professional at the bedside. Other staff were also pleasant. However, my scheduling experience was awful. I kept calling up until literally a few days before August and each time was told that the August schedule was not available yet. I was also told I would be called when it opened. I was never called and when I called back about 1 week into August, there were only a few open time slots for my procedure and I had to schedule late in October with an afternoon time slot. I was very disappointed in this, especially since I had been extremely proactive in trying to call ahead and schedule it in advance.

Christine Robinson is fantastic. She is so kind and very knowledgeable. She spent plenty of time with me and answered all my questions. I would highly recommend!!

I absolutely love Ms Sawyers!! She was very friendly, actually listened to me and my concerns. I felt very comfortable with her and am so happy I left my other GI doc!

Dr. Manetas and his associates have always provided compassionate and effective care. I live approximately an hour away and believe making the commute to their facilities is worth every mile. I would highly encourage others with gastrointestinal issues to seek their professional services.

Dr. Flynn was very thorough and considerate in his evaluation. He knows and understands my long standing problems and is putting together a plan to help resolve my issues.

A very let's get it done doctor. Wants to get things taken care of, so the patient can get on with their normal life.

Appreciate Dr Gallahan speaking with me before and after the procedure. Nurses were courteous as well!

Absolutely the best medical staff especially in a world that only cares about the bottom line this was my first time and I am ecstatic about the care I received with this staff phenomenal is an insult they are beyond that every last one of them

My first time experience in getting a colonoscopy was a good one. Everyone made me feel comfortable and explained everything. Dr. Gandhi was pleasant and introduced himself and asked if I had any questions. I would recommend this facility to everyone.

Great first experience

Ms. Robinson is very through and also ask other question pertaining to your issues.

GREAAAAAT

Highly competent, efficient and friendly operation. I rarely give reviews, but these folks deserve recognition.

Dr. Flynn is an awesome physician and a very good communicator and a great person! He has been my doctor for around 10 years now and I couldn’t be happier with the service at Richmond Gastro.

Everyone in the office was professional and treated patients well.

Excellent experience- great procedure all the way through. From check in to discharge- everyone was nice and did a great job!! Thank you!!

He was great . He was patience and understanding and did not rush through my appointment. He took the time to listen. He gave me a game plan and explained everything I needed to know . He’s really a nice guy .

A very positive and influential experience!

She was super nice and concerned about my issues with my stomach....she is a real pleasure do deal with

He explained everything to me where I had a good understanding

This was my first visit, and Dr. Sandhu was very assuring that I was in great hands. This really relaxed me and put me at ease. The medical staff were very friendly and caring. I really appreciate the care that I received. Thank you!

Dr. Jindal was very informative. He had the answers to my problems. A very productive physician encounter.

I was pleased with my visit.

Good doctor, good listener.

Very good visit. Dr. Sandhu came in before we started to introduce himself and he thoroughly explained everything that would be done. He was very clear and made sure I understood and was comfortable.

Very pleasant and friendly staff & doctor. Would & have recommended to my friends and family.

As great of an experience as this procedure can be! Excellent communication the entire time and friendly staff. Small wait time prior to procedure, and it was the best sleep I’ve had in a while! Altogether a much better experience than I’d prepared for, and that was thanks to Dr. Sandhu and his team!

I’m very happy and satisfied with Dr. Sandhu, he’s an excellent gastro.

I liked Dr. Gandhi very much. He listened and was very helpful.

Everyone was very nice and informative.

Ms. Robinson was very informative, friendly ready to listen and share her incite. She made me feel comfortable about my upcoming procedure. Great job!!

F

Everyone was great.

Dr. Flynn was engaged and listened, which i find is rare. His staff is top notch. Christina is a rock star, so informative and helpful. Highly recommend.

Very kind and professional

Mrs. Robinson was very informative and willing to listen to and answer my questions. She is very easy to talk to and the office staff from front desk to the nursing staff are all very friendly and helpful.

Dr. Flynn is great at what he does. Makes you feel like you are his only patient.

Great staff made you feel comfortable and welcomed! Front desk pleasant, procedure nurse Kathy was amazing and Ginger CRNA was the icing on the cake (much needed sleep after prepping hahaha) can't forget Rebecca in recovery caring and compassionate! Saved the best for last Dr Lyons thank you for your "eagle eye" polyps don't stand a chance hahaha Thank You!!!

Before I was put under I thought Dr. Edelman listened to my concerns and she told me that she would look into my concerns and when I was in recovery she told me that she didn’t see anything that was of concern.

I truly appreciate that she listens with caring attention and provides clear explanations and plans for treatment.

Such an amazing Dr. He listened to my concerns and is covering all bases to help me figure out what to do from here and how to get the best care. He is the nicest Dr I've ever been seen by!

Took the time to listen to what was going on; very thorough and even followed up.

Efficient, on time and very professional. Listens to the patient and talks with you not at you.

Very good

He was nice and made me feel comfortable even though I was nervous.

Very thorough and explained everything in detail. Personable.

Everything was good

Dr. Hoque listened and answered all my questions. He was professional, caring and knowledgeable. I was very impressed with the office and him.

Very nice guy

Dr. Manentas took his time to listen to me, asked questions, and developed a plan of action. He seems compassionate, is soft spoken, and is comfortable to share with.

Dr. Basi was professional and compassionate.

Completely satisfied!

I was treated with the upmost respect. Everything was explained to me and this made the visit very comfortable. I highly recommend Dr. Sandhu and trust him in every way.

Everyone was very informal and very versed in their jobs

Dr Manetas is a thorough and pleasant doctor. Although gastrointestinal matters may be unpleasant to discuss this doctor puts one at ease yet is careful with his findings even to the point of bringing in a colleague to check some matters. I appreciated that.

Dr. Kumar and all the supportive staff were very professional and friendly. Dr. Kumar spoke with my wife after the procedure explaining everything.and next steps. Thank you!

Dr. Lyons is an excellent listener, pays close attention to what I have to say, repeats it back to me so it’s clear. We hopefully came up with a plan that is workable and that we both agreed on. Making an appointment or working with his office is beyond difficult. His staff isn’t welcoming and does not follow through for patients.

Great first visit. Doctor took a lot of time, listened, was thorough and ordered tests that were needed. I was very encouraged.

Good!

Greatly pleased with consult. Christina is a wonderful addition to the team. Dr. Flynn is a doctor that listens to your concerns and follows up with needed treatment. So glad he is my doctor.

Excellent service.

I had went in for a colonoscopy and met Dr. Jindal and the staff at time of my procedure. Everything went well and I felt very good after. I had not spoken to Dr. Jindal after, but I did recieve a report. I was happy from the report of my results and knowing that I have them is all good. I will recommend Dr. Jindal and thank my PCP for sending me to Richmond Gastroenterology Associates.

Friendly and very professional

very thorough appointment. The doctor spent time understanding my concerns.

Good experience, Dr Gandhi is very knowledgeable and has a pleasant bedside manner.

Helpful with my concerns. Some testing to follow up is suggested to further diagnose my condition.

Awesome doctor. Very friendly helpful staff. Doctor was very thorough and caring. Highly reccomended.

I am very pleased to recommend Dr. Lyons. He is caring and compassionate. He is gentle during exams and explains what he is going to do so that the patient knows what to expect. He focuses on the patient as he obtains the history of their complaint and makes recommendations to address the problem.

The staff and Dr. were very helpful and make sure you were comfortable the whole time for my procedure.

very easy to set up and get seen

Not a good match. I felt something about me did not set well with him. He was not interested in being my doctor. He left me feeling ignored. Was it my weight, my race or both? I expected more but that is what you get nowadays. I won't except substandard care.

Excellent experience. I've had 4 or 5 colonospies and best one yet. Very informative Thank you

Dr Flynn's bedside manner was very good. He asked a few questions and the staff let you know what was happening next until you were asleep. After procedure, staff were great, Dr Flynn informed of my results. I left feeling like I didn't have a procedure.

I had a wonderful experience with Ms. Townsend .Her kindness and professionalism made my experience very positive. She took the time to understand my needs and provided the care I required."

Very professional and kind . You feel comfortable as a patient . Care is explained in detail and questions are answered . Very respectful.

Awesome Doctor

Always a great experience!

Dr.Lyons is very good and listens to my concerns and will try hard to find out what to do to find a solution to my unique problems.

Procedure was smooth, timely and easy. Dr Edelman is an amazing doctor. Kind curious and clearly explains everything

I refer all my friends to Dr. Sandhu!

Excellent customer service!

Excellent experience as always

As always, the care I received was top notch. Dr. Gallahan was kind, thorough, and concise with his pre and post op interactions with me.

De. Robert Flynn is a very professional Physician, I felt very good getting an appointment with him, I hope that when I need assistance Richmond Gastroenterology will give me future Appoitments with him.

Very good

Dr. Made sure you knew what was going to be going on. Also made you feel more comfortable.

Dr Basi showed me courtesy and respect. He listened carefully and impressed me with his immediate plan to further diagnose my GI issues.

Dr Kumar is very in depth with his search for what is wrong. I have some very strange allergies that kept me from having some tests done that were really necessary and he found a solution. He is an amazing doctor!

Very pleased with Dr. Flynn and his team!!! One of the few doctors that talks directly to the patient. His office staff is always friendly and helpful.

Ms. Townsend inspires confidence and puts one at ease!

Dr. Richardson was very compassionate and explained everything very clearly. He patiently answered all my questions very patiently and thoroughly.

Fantastic doctor, great bedside manner and demeanor. Practice overall is great.

Dr. Flynn’s nurses are excellent and he is an excellent doctor!

Very nice easy to talk to

Very friendly, courteous, knowledgeable and willing to listen to what I had to say

Dr is very patient and listens to you and explains what is happening didnt just rush me out to see next patient

execellant

Very friendly environment

My appointment time was on time. Everyone was courteous. There was no waiting. I felt relaxed and comfortable with Dr.

Excellent experience with the staff and doc

He had a plan for me and moved on it when he first talked to me

I recommend Dr. Sandhu. Helped me a lot.

This site has now shut me out twice in the middle of an attempted review. As I was saying, the office itself was not handicap friendly, (toilet, doors, etc). I feel like Dr Sandhu was not as I remembered. Everyone is granted off days. I'm not clear on some of my concerns but nothing major. Soon after, I had frustrating emails with bookkeeping regarding a bill I received for a no-show the year before (the first received for almost a year before my initial visit!). I appreciate the care I received earlier. The pancreatic enzymes have greatly improved my quality of life. Thank you, Leah

Very attentive in the exam and explained the colonoscopy results thoroughly. I am very satisfied knowing my guts are in good hands!

Under sadation throughout, but the prep staff was excellent and very professional

Dr. Michael Manetas He was very respectful and explain what he was going to do you. He asked did you have any questions or concerns before he start the procedure. I recommend him for endoscopy and colonoscopy procedure.

Thank you for an amazing experience. You guys were awesome from start to finish.

Dr. Sandhu is very detailed, great patient communication, knowledgeable, professional, and compassionate bedside manners. Highly recommend

Lots of needed information was obtained on constipation..

Shannon Townsend is top tier. She has helped me tremendously and I am eternally grateful to her expertise, kindness and determination to help her patients.

Always a pressure. Dr.kumar is very honest and firm.

I always receive great care! Such a knowledgeable and caring group of physicians and staff at this location.

I give him 5 stars all the way around! He was simply awesome!

Dr Flynn and his team are amazing! They never fail to return a call or follow up when they say they will. They truly care about their patients. They are simply the best!

My first time seeing Dr. Manetas- he was very courteous and professional

Dr. Richardson and his staff were so kind, courteous and informative. They made sure I was comfortable and understood the procedure I was having. Everyone from the woman I checked in with upon arrival, the nurse who took me back, everyone I came in contact with in surgical area, they were so kind and made me feel at ease.

Dr. Richardson spent a lot of time discussing my medical issues. He gave me a lot of useful information and was very supportive.

Nice doc, thorough, knowledgable and professional

N/a

Hears you when you speak.Makes you feel comfortable and takes the time to answer your questions. Nice Smile!

Dr. Adam and his staff were very kind and attentive to all of my needs. He took the time to listen to all of my concerns, and explained how he would address the issues. Great bedside manner.

FLAWLESS

Timely, patient, respectful, kind, educational

Everyone in the office, including the doctor was extremely welcoming, Friendly, and professional. They were very informative, helpful, and caring.

Very knowledgeable with excellent insight and suggestions, which was provided while listening to what I had to say.

Shannon and staff were great.

Great Provider!

I really appreciate the professional support from you and your team it truly means a whole lot to me and my family thank you

I saw Lauren. She is very smart and attentive.

I can say , we called many places and explained my situation but I got this office of Dr Gandhi they got me in the very next day. He was very professional and I appreciated his knowledge. He understood my problems and arranged for things to happen very quickly.

He has great bedside manners .

Everything ran efficiently from the time.I walked into the office to the time I left. Everyone was professional yet , very personoble and kind.

Dr. Richardson was very professional and personable. He took time to understand my situation and was very knowledgeable regarding it. You could tell he was an experienced physician who cared about his patients. I would highly recommend him.

Christine listened to my concerns and was very interested in helping me address the issues. I would absolutely recommend her.

Everything went well the care nurses provided were awesome and doctor did great service taking care of colonoscopy telling me how everything went during my colonoscopy and nothing was found and I am glad will see u guys in ten years looking forward trying stay healthy in future to come until next thank you have great rest of your week be well and bless

Awesome doctor. Very friendly and informative

Dr. Lyons Listens to what you have to say carefully. He also seems to be more flexible than other gastro specialists I have met.

Dr, Hoque reviewed my file prior to coming in the room. I previously saw Dr. Jarith for 32 years. Dr. Hoque knew my entire history. He answered all of my questions and discussed what procedures he felt were necessary. I felt like he had taken the time I needed to discuss everything.

The experience was positive. Each step in the process was thoroughly explained and I felt very confident with the service provided. I highly recommend this practice.

Zzz

Very thorough!

Took time to explain my conditions and made it clear to understand. Thank you...mc

Serena is a lovely lady and I have no concerns with her. This comment is about a prescription that Dr.Ghandi called into my pharmacy,I have waited 7 days to get the prescription and when I did finally get the RX called into the pharmacy they asked me to call them back. The prescription was a whopping $1,667.67 and I was completely blown away! I called the office at least 7 times to get the perscription. Today I called many times to get the doctor to give me something that will work for a more reasonable price.Ive have been calling since early this morning for just a prescription alone. It is 3:39 in the afternoon and the last I was told was that Dr.Ghandi has other patients. I have an infection,i've waited 7 days for the RX he calls 9ne in foe an astronomical amount and he has other patients. Wow! Just wow.

Liked that Dr. Gallahan listened to my concerns & made me feel more comfortable about my condition. Reviewed my records & made suggestions to change meds. Made a follow up appt. To check on progress. It was a good experience overall with wait time & staff.

The experience was a good one, except they had to stick me twice and the second needle was pretty big, but other than that the experience was great and I remember nothing of the actual procedure. This is my second procedure here, but my first with Dr. Hoque. My procedure was at the very end of the day but everyone was professional and helpful. Thanks!

Good teamwork provide by him and his team. Procedure went smoothly.

I had some results of concern that prompted this visit, and they got me in pretty quickly. This is my third and each time has been a very smooth experience! Thanks!

Excellent care and feedback

Great care and follow up

Ms Sawyers is very nice, professional and really listens to you and works very hard to work with you and your health. I,m very pleased to have her as my health provider as well as RGA.

DR. RICHARDSON IS A VERY CARING DOCTOR AND IS CONCERNED ABOUT ALL HIS PATIENTS.

Outstanding

Dr. Gallahan recommended tests to try to determine the cause of my ,not perfect, blood work. We are in that process.

I have learned not to fear my endoscopies or colonoscopies. My experiences with Richmond Gastro, including my latest with Dr. Sandhu, have all been very good. Every receptionist, nurse, technician and doctor has been efficient and communicated well. I got in and out in record time, and received clear information about the procedure. My thanks to all.

Was very helpful and gave me a complete exam

Profesional

Open and good DR Everybody out there is friendly Thank you all

Very pleasant greeting, very straight forward and thorough explanation, asked me my concerns or questions, and got on with the procedure. Prompt delivery of results and imparted to me the best news I've heard in a while. Thank you, Dr. Lyons!

Dr. Gallahan was very approachable. He answered my questions on my test results and is working with me to solve my medical issue. He was on time for my procedure which was completed by him without complications and on time.

Serena spent time explaining things to me and answering my questions

Always an informative visit even if a follow up. Dr. Manetus is thorough, listening to all concerns. The staff are efficient and courteous. Great doctor

Ms. Sawyers is a fantastic care giver who always makes you feel comfortable. She is always prepared, never rushes you and is the most knowledgeable health care provider I have ever had.

Once one gets in to see Dr. Sandhu, he and his staff are very good and kind and thorough! It takes a long long time to get in however because he is so highly sought after for his expertise! However, they were kind after the initial office visit to move me up for procedure much sooner than I thought would be possible for them! Hoping all goes well now with procedure as it did 10 years ago! I would highly recommend him and know that he is highly respected among his peers in his profession as one of the very best!

Once the prep was over with, it was a great experience

DR Jindel was very nice, and attentive to my health problem.The receptionist and nurses were very pleasant.

Great staff, great care team, Dr J is very passionate about his patients and their treatment. He was very sensitive and kind sharing my cancer diagnosis and lead us down the path to Oncology and Surgery to treat the cancer. The Nurses and Anesthesia teams are all top shelf in my book.

Rachel Sawyer is unbelievable! Not only did she take my concerns seriously (digestive issues) she went way above and beyond by quickly diagnosing an 18 month-month old sore on my FOOT as fungal. I want to marry her!

It was a pleasent to talk to Dr. Shah.

It was a pleasant experience. Everyone was encouraging and professional.

Great doctor Awful wait time Makes me never want to make another appt

Professional staff and nurses thanks

great service

The staff was great!

Dr. Hogue was very professional and helpful. would recommend him to others.

Very pleasant experience. No complaints

Dr. Hoque was amazing! This was my first time meeting him, but he came through the door knowing everything about my GI history. I was very impressed! He took the time to review all he had learned about my conditions and came up with a plan of treatment before he walked through the door. I felt like he truly cared and took the time to focus on me and my concerns. That is very hard to find these days. I would definitely recommend him!

Very compassionate and willing to go above and beyond.

Very good

Process is easy and the staff is very nice.

Dr Jindal is a awesome Dr and has very good bedside manners.

no problems

Great visit

Dr. Manetas did a great job.

Great Doctor! Had issues with a couple of his staff members, but everybody funny, now they funny too… Again Great Doctor!

Very professional and very easy to understand.

Dr Manetas is the best GI Doctor around. He knows all of his patients.

The whole process was efficient and met my expectations.

Dr Shah is an open minded, easy going knowledgeable professional. He and his team provide patients with: -- a detailed synopsis of the procedure, -- a cautionary description of the side effects, -- advice for the recovery 12/24 hr period, -- an extensive report of their findings, -- a brief but comprehensive dietary guide. Thank you for the kindness and warm rapport ... !!!

Very satisfied with visit

The receptionist, nurse's and doctor was very nice and attentive.

Dr. Manetas is great. He is a doctor who really cares about his patients well being. He is an excellent listener and answer all my questions.

Great

Please have nurses during surgery prep to slow down in asking vital questions. Everyone was polite and professional. Dr. Flynn was tentative and respectful. I really appreciate that he took the time to wheel me out. Thank you, Richard Bishop

She listened to me and showed concern for my issues.

First, Dr. Flynn has the BEST staff!! Second, Dr. Flynn has the best bedside manner. I highly recommend him!!

He is very kind and does a great job listening. I feel like my concerns are heard.

Dr. Gandhi was informative and very professional

Love her. Always willing to listen and explain.

Listens to what you say and takes action to better patients wellbeing. Highly recommended!

She’s very empathetic & takes time to understand the issues. She’s helped me figure out best Solutions several times!

Dr Hoque was very attentive, patient & very caring during my procedure & follow up appointment. Excellent bedside manner & informative.

Ms. Zhang is a good listener. She takes the time to listen, make notes and to respond on best way or ways to treat. She recommended a few tests and some medicine to help with my issues. I like that she is so pro active to get to root of my problems and the medicine prescribed is also helping.

Dr Edelman and her team were outstanding! Great care all around!

Dr. Flynn is willing to spend the extra time to help you understand everything. A true professional you can trust.

Dr Shah is Awesome. He is not one of those Gastro drs that just keeps giving medicines. He tried medication and tests until the test results showed my Gastro issues.

Everyone was so very professional, and caring. I was a little scared, because I didn't know what to expect, but everyone made me feel so calm. I would also like to send a shout out to Richard, who took my vitals. Great experience!!!!

great dr

Dr.Hoque and his team insured me that everything will be alright. They were right everything turned out great.

Dr. Drew was very personable and attentive to my medical history prior to my procedure. His compassionate care made me relaxed and comfortable throughout.

As difficult as a colonoscopy can be, Dr. Lyons team made it a good experience. The procedure was timely, all the staff was kind and friendly, and Dr. Lyons immediately let me know that nothing concerning was found. What a relief! Thanks again!

I have been very impressed with Dr. Jindal. He is an excellent listener, easy to talk with regarding embarrassing issues and answered all my questions.

Dr. Adam was very thorough, took the time to look at my history, previous results, asked a lot of questions regarding my symptoms, explained everything, made sure I understood, and offered treatments nobody had offered before. He was very professional and courteous. He made me feel like he truly cares about his patients.

Attentive and informative

excellent

Dr. Manetas was phenomenal! Actually the entire staff was phenomenal!! Highly recommend!

Dr Shaw was exceptional. Listening to . He helped me address a complex bowl issue that I was struggling with for several years.

Dr. Flynn is great and so are his assistants!

I really liked Dr. Dooley and wanted someone like him. I was pleased with Dr. Richardson and will go to him for my next procedure. He is young and I figure unless he leaves he will get me through my life.

Dr. Kumar done my check-ups since I had a severe sickness in 2016. I have appreciated his professionalism and care over the last 8 years. As much as I like him, I hope my visits will become less frequent as the years go by.

Dr. Gallahan has been my physician for nearly eight years. I trust his advice and recommendations for my treatment. He is truly concerned about my condition, and has always sufficiently addressed my questions and concerns.

Ms. sawyers is very friendly and caring wants to hear what you have to say and wants to find a solution.

I have been glad to have Dr. Sandhu as a physician skilled in the area of endoscopic ultrasound helping me to stay on top of my pancreas that has multiple cysts and one that has become enlarged. When one loses a parent with pancreatic cancer, this type of diagnostic testing is helpful for a child who may worry about that serious condition.

Dr. Adam was very considerate and helpful.

I felt safe, respected and well taken care during the preparation, procedure and while recovering shortly before being discharged.

Great experience

The whole team from intake to procedure were great, and the experience went very smoothly

Provider took their time, listened, and explained. The office was prompt and polite.

It was nice experience

Very thorough and friendly. Took the time to explain my diagnosis and what my options were.

Very through and he did not rush through the visit.

My examination was very thorough. When I left the office I felt confident that the pneumonia was gone. Everyone was very friendly and professional.

Best supportive healthcare staff for any doctor. Staff are on top of returning phone calls, communication with Dr. Flynn and actually listening to patients without judgment. Dr. Flynn is easy to talk to about issues patients are uncomfortable to share, after all he’s a gastroenterologist ! Very happy Dr. Flynn and his team are in my care of doctors in RVA.

Rachel was very attentive, addressed my concerns, developed a care plan that worked and relieved me of my symptoms.

On point

Great bedside manner. Explained and listened to me. Gave me follow up after procedure Very good experience. I would definitely recommend Dr Flynn

Dr. Manetas was my mom, nanny and mother-in-law’s doctor and I loved how he always treated them with care, concern, and respect! I am so glad he is my gastro doctor as well! He is patient and explains things in a way that is easy to understand.

He is very attentive always helpful in our conversation while we talk and as Doctor he has very good manners.

Ms. Zhang listened well and prescribed medication that alleviated my pain. I learned more from websites as to how to get more relief using these meds. Good visit.

Dr. Adam is an excellent Doctor! He is one thar doesn't rush and takes his time to answer any and all questions. I would recommend him 100%

What I appreciate about Dr. Richardson is that he takes the time to explain his findings about the questions you have asked.

Dr Flynn is a great doctor with a very personable chairside manner. He always has tremendous patience at all times. He has a great staff of Marsha and Cristina who always assist with your every need. They treat you like you're family.

Dr. Kumar is a genuinely kind person. He was willing to take time to explain to me what was happening and answer my questions.

Everyone that works in Dr Lyons office is very nice, and makes you feel comfortable.

Dr .Manetas , has been very thorough in diagnosing my EPI. He is very patient and spends as much time as needed. So grateful for his care.

Dr. Simmelink is a caring, thoughtful Doctor Who listens to your concerns.

Dr. Ghandi takes his time in listening and explaining symptoms, conditions and medications. He is a kind and understanding physician.

Very thorough. Provided good care. Listened to what I had to say and provided good ideas.

Felt very comfortable with the level of care I received during my procedure

Everyone was very professional and

It's always a pleasure to see Dr. Flynn and his staff. No long wait to see the doctor, no being rushed out of the office, always takes time to explain things and answer questions. This should be a "model" for how to conduct a medical practice. I wish my visits to other physicians went so smoothly.

Dr. Edelman is an incredible practitioner! She is respectful, professional, thorough and an excellent communicator. I am very grateful to have a clinician of this caliber. Also, thanks goes out to her staff at all levels for their efficiency and kindness.

He was very much interested in me and my symptoms with my pancreas. I felt like he took all the time necessary. I am so glad he was recommended to me

Dr.Shah explains everything in detail.I was very satisfied.Very polite and on time.

Dr Flynn and his staff were wonderful. They had great bedside manners and put me at complete ease. Highly recommend

Great Doc. Very knowledgeable

Dr. K. Edelman is very knowledgeable and professional. She listens and responds with helpful advice and suggestions. I highly recommend her for Celiac disease patients.

Very professional and friendly young lady.

Very thorough and professional!

Listens to you and includes you in your health decisions

Excellent experience

Dr. Shah really cares about your well being. I appreciated him taking the time to discuss any concerns before my procedure. He has a wonderful bedside manner and is easy to talk to. The whole team at Richmond Gastro was wonderful!!

As always, I am highly satisfied when meeting with Dr. Sandhu and grateful that he was my physician during a very difficult period health wise.

Very professional, courteous, would recommend Dr Manetas to future patients.

Very good at listening to my concerns

I feel like there lack of time sensitive address to one’s health in my case wasn’t one of grave concern…example; I had an illness to where I was on a full liquid diet, since the 06/24/2024, I was given a follow up appointment on the 07/10/2024, I was told on that day that an appointment was going to be set up with a surgeon and they would be contacting me on what procedures and steps will be taken next.After a week past I called on the 07/18/2024 to confirm and they were acting as if they had no recollections of what I was talking about, so out of frustration my girl friend called the surgeons office staff and had things set up within a half hour, which means I went a week which prolonged things, for a whole week. To me the care of a patient should be something of grave importance, and feel as if mine wasn’t.

Office and medical staff were all extremely professional and caring. Would definitely recommend Dr . Richardson

Great doc. My favorite. Very patient with old man (85).

He was good at receiving my word about the issues I have in a number of parts of my body!

Professional staff and doctor.

Good experience and very friendly staff, Dr. Gallahan has a very good bedside manor and kept me posted on everything that was going to happen.

Dr. Edelman was very understanding and everyone was so nice

Great job. In and Out quickly. No complaints

Everything went well. He explained everything to me in a way I could understand and listened to what I had to say

The most validating doctors experience i have had in years. He listened, understood, and empathized with my situation. He validated what I’ve been struggling with for years and made me feel heard. Amazing doctor!

I was unhappy because of the time available for me to get and appointment. Then I had a little wait & the Dr, apologized & explained why… I felt better & understood! I specifically wanted to be seen by Dr. Lyons because of his excellent professional & friendly service previously rendered!!!! I have a return upcoming appointment this week! Yes I would refer family & friends to use Dr. Lyons!

Dr. Manetas and the whole team were very caring and efficient. Everyone explained everything that was going to happen during my procedure. It went very smoothly.

From check-in to completion, everyone that I came into counter with was very professional and pleasant.

My first colonoscopy. Dr Kumar was very personable. My nurse, Richard, was amazing as well. He put me at ease and walked me through the process.

Kudos to Dr. Robert Flynn, at Richmond Gastroenterology Associates located in North Chesterfield. I was, fortunately, referred to him by my Primary Care Physician back in July of 2022. He is extremely knowledgeable, however it is his gentle, nonabrasive bedside manner that makes him one of the best in his field. He always puts me at ease, regardless of my stress level. The office personnel, too, is always diligent and helpful. So, if you are looking for a great Gastroenterologist, do yourself a favor. Go see him.

Dr. Gandhi was very good in explaining the results of the colonoscopy. He was compassionate and thorough. I highly recommend him and his staff.

Great customer service.

Dr. Sandhu and his staff were great. Having been my first procedure, they answered my questions, were warm, efficient, and treated me like a human not a number.

It took me 7 months to get into seeing Dr Gallahan, but once I did see him, he immediately addressed my concerns.

Office staff good, was seen at allotted appointment time. Dr was helpful with questions and answers were clear.

I received a letter in the mail indicating my procedure indicated precancerous gi changes!! No one from my doctor’s office bothered to call me with this information but instead send me a letter. How very insensitive and unprofessional not to mention unkind of your office of doctors, NPs, providers. This is my 3rd attempt of sharing this experience with the office. I still have not had a response, call, or communication from this office. Shelley Anderson 540 455 5239

I have been a patient of Dr Flynn for about 20 years, he has always been knowledgeable and a true professional. I would highly recommend him and his team to anyone.

In and out, no issues

I put off a procedure for a year because I was afraid of the result. Thankfully, I'm good. But the experience was pleasant. Dr. Jindal is an excellent clinician. He is concerned about his patients and encourages them to be accountable for their health and well being.

As always, Dr. Adams and staff are so friendly, caring and listen to all my concerns. I feel safe while in their care and Dr. Adams comes by before and after the procedure to check with me and explain his findings. The staff keeps me comfortable and makes sure I'm awake and feeling well before sending me home with my driver. What a great group of people!

First time patient of Dr Lyons, and by far the best experience for a colonoscopy I’ve ever had. Would highly recommend him and have.

I began seeing Dr. Manetas at my very first Colonoscopy at age 50 (I’m now 61 1/2). At 57 or 58, I contracted Colon Cancer. So, I now have to have Colonoscopies more often. Dr. Manetas and staff have been compassionate AND professional from the first visit and still are now! They are all THE BEST!!

Dr. Sandu is a wonderful practitioner

Fabulous care. I felt very supported and cared for. Everyone was very kind and considerate and answered all my questions.

Great doctor. Great service

Not only is Dr. Simmelink’s approach to medicine extremely thorough, he also has a laid back and humorous attitude which quickly puts you at ease when dealing with severe GI issues. If you’re a serious person who cannot laugh at yourself, he’s probably not the best fit for your healthcare needs. However, if you incorporate humor into your healthcare regimen, Dr. Simmelink is the perfect match!

Dr Adam is always very attentive, listens, and is working diligently to find a solution to my health issue. One of the meds was going to cost over $800 out of pocket but he and his staff were able to get samples. If I call his office with a question, he personally calls me back. I am very pleased with Dr Adam.

The care I received from Dr. Bimaljit Sandhu was exceptional . They listened to my concerns and provided a best services.

Dr Gallahan is so down to earth. Easy to talk to, I felt comfortable talking to him about my issues. Have had a procedure with him before and he puts you at ease. I would highly recommend him..

Pleasant

I love this office. Dr. Flynn is awesome and also his nurses go the extra mile for his patients.

Dr. Jindal provided great service and communicated his intentions clearly and his follow-up was conducted in a timely and professional manner.

Everything went well for my first colonoscopy. Thank you!!

Professional

At no point during the visit did I feel listened to. I was prescribed medication that I'd already taken and it continued to have no effect. I still feel exactly the same. I am in constant pain. At one point during the visit I was called adversarial for trying to explain my issue. Complete waste of my time.

They made me feel very comfortable and everyone was so friendly and informative

Everything went great. Staff was pleasant and comical. Only bad thing was the taste of the prep.

He took care of me like he said he would. Thank you so much

She was very knowledgeable and concerned about my condition and truly wants to help me.

Dr. Flynn and those on his team are so dedicated to the best care for their patients. They are always there for a call and return it the same day. He listens to your questions answers them with great patience.

I was informed every step

all nice and pleasant

The whole staff was wonderful. Dr. Richardson explained everything thoroughly and has a wonderful bedside manner.

Whole staff was friendly and answered all questions in what was a first visit for me. They explained everything and process was very fast.

Dr. Lyons is very through and and takes time to explain the various issues and steps to be taken.

Staff was pleasant everything went as smooth as planned no complaints here doctor did a fantastic job

Dr. Edelman is so lovely and helpful. She made me feel super comfortable sharing my concerns and took them seriously. I had put off talking to a doctor about my GI symptoms for years out of fear of simply being dismissed (“it’s just anxiety” “you just need to lose weight”). Dr Edelman made me feel heard and respected. She is warm and understanding as well as incredibly professional and knowledgeable. I wish I had been referred to Dr Edelman sooner, but better late than never!

Very professional, friendly & knowledgeable. He answered all my questions.

Meeting Dr Hogue is an energetic experience! He is bubbly and seems eager to help you in any way he can. He came up with a diagnosis of my issues and set in motion the means to further examine the situation. I am hopeful that his care and consideration will help me succeed in recovering from and preventing more episodes of my issues.

Love Dr. Adam's bedside manner and his ability to listen to what you have to say and then provide a suggestion for moving forward.

Dr. Jindal was professional, caring and took the time to chat with me prior to and after the pr

Staff and Dr were all amazing. They are all extremely caring, professional, and kept me in good spirits.

Great experience for the first colonoscopy. Very professional atmosphere. Clear explanation of every step. Kind and friendly folks.

Dr Manetas gave me the time I needed to answer my questions offering conservative treatment options I requested.

Dr manetas is an excellent doctor who actually listens to you

First timer, incredible experience from the receptionist, nurses, and Dr. Drew. In and out no pun intended and made to feel comfortable throughout the process.

Dr.Flynn shows that he cares by being a great listener and asking the right questions. He works hard to find solutions based on your symptoms. I have had very positive experiences with Dr Flynn and all of the staff at Richmond Gastro!

Procedure day was quick and easy. Very well organized.

Dr Shah was wonderful. This was my second time seeing him and having a procedure done with him. He is very professional and very invested in his patients. I will continue to see Dr. Shah for all future GI needs.

excellent bedside manner, asked if I had any concerns or questions, very friendly

Very good experience

everything went smoothly - staff was very courteous - Dr Flynn responded quickly with the results - overall a grear experience

excellent explanation of what is to come

Excellent job with my surgery. I will recommend all my friends and family. Thanks for everything.

My experience were great. Everybody were so friendly, informative and very professional. Great job!!!!

Nice facility and very friendly staff.

Great care and understanding. Best Doctor and good staff.

Waited to see me due to a problem I had at the last minute. I did not have an appointment.

It was so uncomplicated. Anesthesia in, 3 seconds later, I thought they haven't started. Guess what? They were done. Will recommend it to anyone. Btw, it was my first time.

Serena took the time to listen and I got all the tests I needed. I now know what's going on thanks to her. She was professional and very nice. Forever grateful, thank you Serena.

.

Very informative

Doctor was knowledgeable and listened to our concerns. We are happy with our visit and will recommend others

Dr. Sandhu is a very passionate Doctor. He really cares about his patients .

..

Dr. Adam was very quick to let me know the results of my procedure.

Great experience, no hassle, and very comfortable. All staff were professional and courteous.

Very comfortable at the facility.

Dr Flynn and his wonderful team are the very best!!

Awesome

EXCELLENT,

Dr. Richardson has been my doctor since May 2020. He is very detailed and has a great bedside behavior.

Excellent!

Great doctor

Shannon has gone above and beyond in helping me with my medical issues. During appointments she listens carefully to my concerns and is very proactive in suggesting options for addressing them. She is also very good about responding to requests I make via the portal. I would highly recommend this very smart and compassionate medical provider.

Great! No Issues

I felt so at ease with Dr. Richardson. He listened to my situation and I felt he gave great advice and feedback.

Listened attentively and had a thorough visit. Much better experience than past Providers.

He's a man of few words but he listened and explained.

Dr. Edelman is conversant with my medical history and quite good at helping me.

Knowledgeable, kind and thoughtful!

Great doctor.

Always well taken care of... appreciate their level of service.

Dr. Kumar is friendly and explained everything in detail.

I truly like Dr. Flynn as my Gastroenterologist. He listens to me and we work through my concerns. He has time for me during my visits and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a new doctor.

Great

The doctor scheduled various procedures to try to solve my problem. I have no complaints.

Very disappointed. She stared at the computer throughout the appointment. Didn’t even touch the problem area . Didn’t question. Only said that she was sure I was at the wrong place and sent me to do a ct scan anyway. She was definitely wrong, I’m having issues with my guts but she didn’t want to investigate. I’m see another professional from another practice for treatment.

Extraordinary Doctor. He takes the time to listen and has excellent bedside manners.

Dr. Shah really listens and I feel has an understanding of my history. Explains everything well without me feeling overwhelmed.

Dr. Manetas was very thorough in reviewing what was accomplished during my endoscopy procedure. He was also very attentive as I discussed how things have been going with me since the procedure. He was very responsive to questions.

Great bedside manor. Friendly staff at all stages of my visit Extremely well run office.

Dr. Manetas is just amazing! The consumate professional who makes you feel comfortable! Our family is beyond exicted to share a review for Dr. Manetas that is 150% in our book! Cheers to Dr. Manetas and his entire staff and Medical Team! :)

Professional and friendly. From the front desk staff to the discharge staff, everyone made me feel comfortable. Thank you

Excellent staff and very knowledgeable, appointment was set online, and was very quick started on time. No waiting.

It went as well as it possibly could

Shannon Townsend is great. She listens to all of your concerns and is very thorough.

Dr. Gallahan is more than happy to spend time with a patient explain details, answer questions, etc.

Ms. Sawyers , PA-C was very patient & informative . She listened to my concerns of what I was experiencing & offered plan of correcting issue.

One of the best Dr’s I’ve seen. He takes time with you and explains everything. The only problem is getting an appointment to see him. That is how good he is!

A little late, but acceptable.

great

Dr. Lyons was very helpful and listened to what I had to say.

Dr. Townsend is so polite and patient you can tell she really cares about her patients and what she does. She is always on top of her stuff when it comes to my health like asking me questions and checking for things and I can’t say how much I appreciate having her as a doctor.

Dr. Lyons has been my esophagus' paparazzi (dozens of endoscopies) for more than 10 years. He's saved my life several times by sending me to the ER, picking up on small symptoms that meant I had to have surgery that day or potentially pass away. He listens to his patients, (and not just their bowel sounds) and his bedside manner is kind, considerate, and funny. Sometimes specialist doctors have egos that can be difficult to swallow, but his mannerisms are easy to digest. His office is smoothly run so the time passes quickly. On the rare occasions when there's a blockage to my recovery, and I become frustrated with medical bureaucracy, he allows me to vent my spleen without judgement. He's far more than competent, I never feel like he's bitten off more than he can chew, despite being a complicated patient.

Dr Simmelink was very professional..He stopped by to visit with me before procedure to introduce himself and go over any questions or concerns that I may have before procedure...After procedure he came back to check on how I was feeling and share information with me about my procedure...Thank you..Dr Simmelink..

excellent, well trained knowledgeable physician that is interested in cutting edge medicine and taking great care of his patients. I highly recommend!

I have been seeing Dr. Manetas for several years. He is fantastic!

Experienced a great, informative first visit with Dr. Sandhu. He was very professional and thoroughly explained everything. I am glad that I have chosen him to be my gastroenterologist; and have every bit of confidence having him perform my colonoscopy.

Ms Sherman listened. She listened and listened and listened. So grateful to be developing a plan of care with her

Dr. Sandhu listened to my concerns and took action to figure out what's going on and what treatment would be best. Still waiting on my test results...

Dr. Sandy is the best doctor I have ever visited. He takes time and listens to my concern. Great bedside manners. His stuff is amazing as well. Phone calls answered promptly. I would recommend dr. Sandhu to my friends and family. Thank you for everything!

I highly recommend this practice and Ms. Sawyers. Very thorough and a pleasant demeanor.

Dr Sandhu is a very compassionate person. He listened to everything I had to say and provided wonderful advice and feedback. I would definitely recommend him to anyone. Thank you Dr Sandhu.

Very pleased with my interaction with dr flynn

Dr Lyons has been very helpful for diagnosing and treating my issue. He also re-examined some older test results and reduced my daily medication intake, eliminating a medication that could cause problems with long term use. His bedside manner is respectful and solicitous. He really listens and comments directly to my questions, concerns and symptom description. Would highly recommend him.

Dr. Edelman is fantastic. She listens to your concerns and addresses your issues. Highly recommended!

Dr. Edelman is very kind, knowledgeable, thorough and professional. I was given the best care I could imagine. She explained everything to me in a manner that I could understand. She was unwilling to give up when trying to figure out what was going on with my IBS. I am blessed to be a patient of hers. Highly recommend to everyone!!

The whole staff was excellent, especially Ms Angel, it was painless and comforting experience. Thanks to the whole staff. WGY

Dr. Adam is an excellent doctor!

Excellent, compassionate, knowledgeable physician!

I appreciate how proactive Dr. Richardson is. We discussed my situation and he was aggressive at getting the proper scans done and already has a course of action depending on what the scans will show. He is very good at explaining his thought process and strategy for treating his patient (me)!

I am thankful for a very professional, well-managed screening

Dr.Flynn is a very nice young man talks to you not at you.

Rachel Sawyers is one of the best healthcare professionals I have ever met. She is always professional and has an incredible desire to help the patient. Her knowledge is unmatched and she personally has helped to improve my quality of life. I 100% recommend her as your healthcare advocate and leader.

Dr. Gallahan and the entire team were fantastic-- communicated everything I needed to know, so thoughtful and organized throughout the process, and could not have been nicer. I felt like I was in good hands and my mind was completely at ease!

Dr. Lyons and his whole staff are great. I highly recommend this practice.

I am very appreciative of Dr. Richardson's expertise and advice. I feel that I am in capable hands, as his knowledge seems broad and current and he displays an attentive interest in my concerns.

Dr. Flynn is a wonderful doctor. He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, friendly and overall, a very nice person.

She really listen love her so nice and caring.

Dr. Flynn seems to know what he was talking about and explains my ailment and needed treatment very well.

Dr Manetas has been my GI doctor since 2010. I have been 100% satisfied with the care he has provided over the years. Now that I am on a Medicare Advantage plan, keeping Dr Manetas as my GI doctor is my primary consideration when choosing a plan.

I remember meeting Dr Shah for the first time in his office at Memorial Regional. He seemed a bit arrogant but thorough. I say this only because those usually make the best qualified doctors/ surgeons. I have been in healthcare for over 40 years. I have been working with Dr Shah for over 5-7 years and we have built an amazing doctor-patient relationship. I even believe he has become a bit softer around the edges in the last few years. So if you want an excellent doctor with a kind disposition, Dr Shah is your man. I would trust him with any family member or friend not to mention myself.

Dr. Sandhu was great! He was calm and explained everything clearly. He took his time and listened and answered my questions. The nurses were also wonderful, professional but also sweet. I was in great hands all around!

Dr. Richardson was very thorough, patient, and kind. He also explained everything to me which I really appreciate in a provider. I would highly recommend.

I have seen Dr. Manetas for many years. He is very thorough and finds things that my primary doctor has missed. I have complete trust in him. He also answers questions on the portal.

Dr Shah has all ways explain everything to me.

Professional! Made me feel comfortable despite the procedure. The whole office was very polite.

Dr: Adam is very professional and excellent human being. His take times to listen to you and his cares to provide the best healthcare for you.

Very professional, pleasant, efficient and created a feeling of trust. Must have endoscopy and colonoscopy on April 30. Can't say I look forward to procedure but felt like it was necessary after seeing PA Townsend. This is the second time Ms. Townsend recommended procedure and I have confidence this time will also go well.

I have been a patient for a number of years with Dr. Edelman. She is very thorough and is responsive when reaching out to her office even in instances of emergency situations. I would highly recommend Dr. Edelman and her office when needing a gastrointestinal situation investigated or general checkup.

I started seeing Dr. Flynn and he informed me I needed a TIF done and to go to Dr. Sandhu. Dr. Sandhu knew everything that was going to happen from the first appointment. Surgery went smoothly and I have not taken any stomach medicine since! I can't say enough good things about Dr. Sandhu and passion for gastro... Also, if you are looking at a TIF...do it! Follow the diet and the recovery will be a breeze!

Had a colonoscopy last year with Dr. Manetas and decided to have an endoscopy that unfortunately I didn’t schedule last year. I could have used another doctor but wanted to wait and have Dr. Manetas again. A truly great doctor that you can tell really takes pride in what he does. He makes you feel comfortable with the whole process. Highly recommend.

Dr. Robert Flynn is an excellent doctor he is patient and kind. He listen very carefully to his patients and explains very well. Thank you for caring.

Dr. Sandhu is the best. Great bedside manner, extremely skilled, highly competent, and very supportive.

Sarah Sherman is an outstanding medical professional. After my first visit with her, I did not want to see anyone else. She is very knowledgeable about my liver disease and really seems to care about me as a patient. I recommend her highly!

everything went well, i had no problems coming in or leaving , sch eluding was easy , prep was not that bad. very pleased with the doctor and staff. Thanks, Steve

Dr. Shah and his team were very professional and made the experience smooth and easy. I would definitely recommend them!

Dr. Sandhu listened to all of my history and symptoms patiently, offered possible explanations for these, and made plans for several tests to clarify what all is going on in my pancreas. He was very polite and respectful and seemed to care about me as a patient.

Everyone was very personable. I couldn't ask for a better experience for a first time visit. From the reception area, to pre-op, to the procedure area, to recovery, I give it all 5 stars! Thank you for making my experience positive. See you in 10!

The entire staff was very kind and empathetic. Each staff member introduced themselves as they were doing their individual task. They each explained their function and asked if I had any questions. Dr Edelman is so lovely. Very communicative and personable.

Dr. Flynn is an excellent provider! He is very through, very caring just an excellent medical provider. I just can't say enough about Dr. Flynn, Marsha and Christina. When my family and friends ask me about a gastroenterology provider, I don't hesitate to give them Dr. Flynn's name. I just want to say thank you so much Dr. Flynn and his staff at Richmond Gastroenterology Associates. Thank you again!

Dr. Manetas is awesome he cares do much about your experience, questions, and he really explains all that will be happening. I have been going to him close to 20 years and never disappoints. He talks to you like a friend - so friendly and reassuring. The staff is excellent, professional, organized, moves you through the steps seamlessly. Everyone is there to help and make the process not overwhelming. Gave great tips and instruction on how to prepare for procedure so no guess work. Makes it very easy to follow and perform. Great Job to everyone!!

She is the most professional and kind person. She informed thoroughly what tests I needed and explained everything to me. I’d recommend her to anyone. I really felt relaxed with her. I really want to thank her!!!

Dr Manetas is an outstanding Dr. He is kind, knowledgeable, and has a great bedside manner. My experience at the Staple Mills location for my endoscopy and colonoscopy was very good. From the front desk to the nurses and everyone who took care of me, I knew I was in good hands the whole time. I regularly see Dr Manetas at the Mechanicsville location and am treated great from the minute I walk in the door until I leave. Dr Manetss and his staff are a rare find in todays times. I feel BLESSED to have him for my Doctor.

Very good job, didn't feel a thing it was over before I new it.

Efficient, well done job

Everyone was very kind and caring.

I saw Dr Manetas on 5/28/24. As always, my interaction with the staff was great. Also, my visit with Dr Manetas was great as always. I highly recommend Dr Manetas to anyone who needs to see a gastroenterologist. He always shows a genuine interest in my well being, while making suggestions that shows he has a high regard for my health concerns.

During my first office visit with Dr. Kumar I was very impressed with how confident and competent he seems. He really listened to my fears and concerns about my upcoming colonoscopy. He was professional and addressed all my concerns. He helped me feel very comfortable about my upcoming colonoscopy.

I appreciate Dr. Sandhu’s professionalism and his candidness in dealing with my issue.

I’m not qualified to review a doctor’s medical skill, but I am glad to share my opinion that being one of his patients has been much to my benefit. He performed three procedures with me under anesthesia, and all of them were successful. I would only add that I owe my improved gastronomic good health to his skills in asking the right questions and listening to my answers. P.S. I already told him pretty much the same thing and assured him that he is a person I admire.

Absolutely a positive experience. I was a little nervous going into this, but the staff from the very moment I walked in was fantastic. I was totally at ease. It is very discrete and you will be very comfortable. Dr. Flynn is an absolute professional and has a great bedside manner. I am so happy that I chose him as my doctor. I highly recommend him.

Great service, great listener and very thorough. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring and competent physcian.

Dr. Simmelink is always kind, considerate and willing to listen to my concerns. He not only listens but he actually hears what I have to say. Always the best! The office is very efficient and professional.

I have been a patient of Dr. Sandhu for years and he and his staff have provided the best of care for me. Dr. Sandhu has always been caring and sympathetic to me and provided excellent care over the years. I am grateful for his outstanding support and care to me and I highly recommend him if you searching for top notch care. A special shout out to Kamryn who has gone beyond the call of duty to ensure I receive the best of care in his absence. I am honored to be a patient of Dr. Sandhu!

Dr. Flynn Is very thorough. He is also very pleasant.

Organized. Professional. Dr. Edelman reviewed information from my previous gastroenterologist, answered my questions, and discussed a plan for moving forward.

Everyone in office very professional and kind. Dr. Richardson explained the procedure and afterwards explained the results. It was all very quick and easy.

I felt that during my appointment with Ms. Robinson that there was a game plan for moving forward to determine my current issues. She was great at explaining various scenarios. Truly helpful in understanding what might be going on.

A very professional and very smooth day-of process

I am always happy with thec. service I receive the staffing professional , I feel that Shannon explained everything well and has my best interest .

Dr Sandu and his team provided me with excellent service. Explained all my concerns and their treatment

Dr Lyons and the entire staff was awesome, very friendly, and explained everything that was going to be happening. They all asked if I had any questions before moving on to the next step of the process.

fast and friendly

Dr. Flynn is great!

Dr Adams and staff was very kind and awesome. Everyone of them made me feel comfortable and I really appreciate them.

Dr. Kumar was very attentive and personable. He listened to my concerns and thoroughly discussed my issues and what he thinks would be the best treatment. I did not wait a long time for him once I was taken back to the treatment room. He was also very knowledgeable.

This was my first visit to Dr. Lyons. He LISTENED!! He is professional and kind. I found that he truly listened to what I had to say and took my concerns into consideration when deciding on testing. He has common sense. I think we are going to have a great doctor-patient relationship.

Thank you sooo much Dr. Adam, You address my health issue with professionalism and kindness !! I appreciate you.. Blessings

Dr. Flynn and his staff are THE BEST!! Dr. Flynn is patient, empathic, caring and very informative. He genuinely cares about his patients in the way he addresses their concerns and the way he conducts himself after procedures. His staff do their very best to address any questions you might have and to return messages.

I have been a patient of Shannon Townsend, PA-C for about a year. At first I was aprehensive. I had been a patient of two other fine physicians in that practice who were no longer there. When I first met with Dr. Townsend I know I gave her a hard time. But she took it all in stride. She provided for my needs and I had excellent results. Every time I have a problem I can easily get in touch through the portal and very quickly get a reply from her. In summary she is an excellent, knowledgeable, caring practitioner and u highly recommend her.

Dr. Shah is very thorough and professional. I have been a patient for over 5 years. He always seems interested in my medical condition and keeps close tabs on treatment options and what is working and what is not. Dr. Shah and his staff quickly communicate through the portal and has even worked with me over the phone while travelling to help manage my condition.

Very calming in a stressful situation.

Ms. Sawyers has been a valued and trusted asset as I deal with my medical issues. I have had several telemedicine and in-office visits to deal with my problems. She is always positive and informative and takes the time to analyze my condition. I frequently use the Patient Portal to notify her of changing conditions and ask questions. She always responds within a day and provides advice and treatment modifications. AT many medical offices these days, it is almost impossible to communicate with any certified personnel without making appointments months in advance. This is not the case here and I communicate with her whenever needed. Great service, a friendly and courteous attitude and sound medical advice!

I am overjoyed with Dr Adams over the past several years he has been my doctor. I have nothing but the best of Care form him and his team.

Dr.Lee has been treating me for a long time and has always been thoughtful and very good at communicating with me. I have had several endoscopy test done and the staff has always been very friendly and helpful. Thank you all for your help and may each of you be blessed.

I had an endoscopy and colonoscopy on the same day. I was not feeling great in recovery, I was wheezing and had a lot of phlegm in my throat. I mentioned it to Dr. Gallahan and he only ask if I was having chest pain and quickly left. When I returned home the wheezing worsened and I began vomiting. I called the after hours number and the on-call doctor told me I probably had pneumonia and to go an urgent care or to an emergency room. I was diagnosed with aspiration pneumonia and given antibiotics. I was extremely fatigued and did not get out of bed for 4 days and was coughing and nauseas the whole time. I NEVER received a call from anyone at the practice even through the oncall doctor seemed confident that I had pneumonia. I involved my PCP who was attentive called to check on me regularly even over the weekend. My PCP suggested that I go back to the emergency room at St. Francis because my Fever was spiking. The antibiotics where working, but i was still very sick. I was given a full workup, and sent home with breathing treatments and a lot of additional meds. Thank goodness for my PCP. I'm very concerned that I got aspirated pneumonia during the procedure, VERY disappointed that no one has called to answer my questions or give me any information about how it happened or even express concern. I'm left to google my way through this nightmare!

Dr. Shah is very thorough and easy to talk to. He is knowledgeable but not at all arrogant. My office visit was a very pleasant experience due to Dr. Shah and the office support staff.
