Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

If you want to feel insignificant and hear comments like, “deal with it”, or “that’s not my problem”, you’re headed to the right place. If you like to be ignored by the actual Doctors, and be handed off to a glorified secretary, who will give you short answers, no explanations, and hang up on you, then give Red Rock Digestion your money. At Red Rock Digestion you’ll get a bill before the results, the Doctor will never call you, no questions will be answered, and no follow up ever. At Red Rock Digestion, they want your money, but not your questions.

Very thorough and intuitive. Diagnosed my daughter’s condition (correctly) and added a hydescan (gallbladder function) as an extra precaution based on familial history even though she hadn’t showed “classic” symptoms. Yep, he was right—and now she can eat again! Thank you, Dr. Woerlein, for figuring out all the different problems she had been struggling with for well over a decade.

Was not super easy to make my appointment, even though everyone I interacted with were really personable. They made sure I knew where to go since the hospital is a bit spread out which was helpful too. My doctor (Dr. Woerlein) seemed super knowledgable and was trustworthy. Going forward I will stick with Dr. Woerlein as he was able to make everything super clear for me and make sure I was in the know with everything going on without rushing.

I had to wait a long time to get an appointment with Dr. Woerlein, but I wanted to makes sure it was with him because my sister had spoken so highly of him as her doctor. At the end of the day, I don’t have too much to compare it to, but I definitely had a good experience and would pass on the recommendation!

Although there was some confusion with my insurance at the start, it was quickly resolved and everything else went smoothly. Dr. Woerlein made my visit painless by saving me from more tests which I was expecting due to my reason for the visit. He was able to assess the issue from the information on my previous tests before running more, which was a really pleasant surprise

First I thought they're making this difficult, wanting to see me in the office first instead of just doing the scoping, but turns out I didn't need one. They know what they are doing.

They referred me straight over to the hospital from their office, and not a minute too early- I had blood poisoning from a ruptured bowel. I'm glad I went to those guys.

Doctor Woerlein had the brilliant idea to review all my medicines, instead of doing tons more testing. Guess what- I'm 100% better, and not a single test.

The other place didn't really help me and all I could ever see was their nurse helpers, so I went to Doctor Woerlein at Redrock digestion, and boy it makes a difference when a real doctor sits down with you and starts from scratch. I should've did it 5 years ago.

They have you fill out the same stuff a lot when you come back, but every place has its quirks. Dr W is worth it, though- always takes his time.
