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.

I am very happy with my treatment at Dr. Edward’s office.

I have been seeing Dr. Edwards for 10 years. I have had a chronic illness for many years along with many complications. Dr. Edwards is the smartest and kindest doctor I've ever seen. His diagnostic skills have been spot on when other doctors have come up empty handed after many expensive and stressful testing! It is also a pleasure to interact with Eagle Gastroenterology's staff. They have always been friendly and professional! Thank you Dr. Edwards and Staff for years of excellent care and consistent satisfaction! Valerie

Great experience! Dr. Edwards always takes time to explain every detail. I’ve been a patient for 27years. That should say it all.

Followed the prep instruction pages exactly as stated. Found instructions sheets to be somewhat confusing, but if read over enough times was able to follow the sequence of actions requested. Overall excellent rating.

As I said at the time to the nursing staff and to Dr. Edwards the whole experience was excellent. Even the day before seemed better than in the pas. They staff it extremely friendly and courteous and answer any question put to them. The process moved along very well and I did not wait long after arrival and got almost spot on as to when I was told it would be over. I mentioned this to Dr. Edwards when he gave me his report and did that in front of the attending nurse in hopes that it would be passed along. I also thanked Dr. Edwards for the care over the past years and said that it had been a pleasure to work with him. Thanks again to all involved. Van Gunter
