Not your patient advocate; hung up on me when I called regarding serious cramping and potential herniated abdominal bowel, shortness of breath? Stay away for you own health and well being. A very emotionally detached gastroenterologist; boasts about income and rarely returns urgent patient called-in concerns.

He was the admitting physician for a screening colonoscopy, I never saw him before the procedure, and only got a phone call from an office staff member telling me that the results were (-) and that they would see me in ten years for my next screening. Well fast forward 8 years. I found out the colonoscopy wasn't (-) and that I should have been treated for a type of leucocytic colitis... His NP at the time Andrea Kohn( now, no longer with the practice) ended up referring me to a holistic practitioner... What a mess. I'm now w... read more

Barely met her moments before being put under for colonoscopy. Very brusque afterwards and, albeit unintentionally, thoughtless of how some of what she quickly and briefly conveyed might hurt my feelings.

She was curt. Condescending, and did way more talking than listening. I have had numerous gastro related surgeries over the years, including a colon resection. I know when something is wrong, and she had zero interest in hearing me. I left feeling both angry and deflated. I would never recommend this NP, Karen Urban to anyone. Ever. I have seen Dr. Jensen, Missy, and Dr. Arluk who are all wonderful. And the staff is wonderful to me 100% of the time. I have been a patient here for years. This was my first issue, but it was aw... read more

The great doctor whom you can't see!

Did two great colonoscopies for me in the past but it seems that his current staff puts a brick wall between the patient and scheduling anything. They completely lack the temperament for dealing with elderly(or any aged) patients who might have a problem albeit a serious problem. Worked on getting an appointment for 6 months with no results even though they cancelled on me twice and gave me false information.

In my search for answers to my chronic pain, I scheduled an appointment with Dr. Goldberg, since gastrointestinal issues were a part of my problem. Dr. Goldberg cut me off before I could finish explaining my issues, and referenced blood work and diagnosis from 5 years ago. I explained that a lot had changed since the last time I came to capital digestive care, but he insisted I was experiencing essentially the same symptoms. He said he didn't really have any answers for my bloating and didn't think it was gastro-related, whi... read more

Dr. Birns came off as a creepy 80s doctor to me. He was overly touchy, seemed to ignore my concerns, and denigrated the benefits of the FODMAP diet which is widely accepted for IBS, Colitis and Crohns.

Unfortunately, I don’t even think she deserves 1 star. I went to capitol digestive care in germantown during covid -19. I knew something was wrong with me & that I needed to have an in person visit to show her things. I was scolded for coming in to the office rather than have an online visit. The whole appointment, she talked down to me & did not listen to what I had to say. My mask was not properly on my nose, I adjusted it & she stopped the appointment to leave the room. I am disgusted with how she acted & have never been ... read more
