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.

My spouse and I have been seeing Dr. Nemec for over 10 years now. He has a excellent bedside manner and truly cares about his patients. He even hand write the suggestions of results for when you should return for a recheck. Until they told him it had to be computerized. Highly recommend him.

Dr. Nemec is great but the prep is horrible but not his fault of course. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a doctor.

Dr Nemec is absolutely the best Gastrointestinal Surgeon with whom I have ever had the privilege of knowing. He is so very knowledgeable. I know this because of my multiple diagnosis’ of which many are not in his field of practice, yet he coordinates every surgery with these in mind and adjusts all possible protective indicators should any number of dysfunctions present. These are just some of the reasons that I trust him implicitly. He is also professionally compassionate. I highly recommend Dr Nemec.

Several yrs ago I had toxic shock fr multiple surgeries,I did NOT kno this.So my firstvisit w/Nemec was great gave me painmeds to numb stomach&told me to call office for refil.So they never did,plus sent me letter stating they would not b seein me again.A week or so later I was hospitalized for pancreatitis.I called His office while n hosp.left mess.was n room.Hospital set me up w/follow up app.I explained ALL happened inc.his nursing staff NOT giving him my mess.So AGAIN he writes me painmeds&says call 4a refill.I do so,& get ANOTHER letter stating they will NOT b seein me no longer.I called his nurse staff& they basically called me a liar,that he NEVER wrote meds I brought in med evidence,scripts,witnesses etc.When"TRYING"TO see Dr.to show all I had.Including v.mails.I do not have enough room to finish writing EVERYTHING I'd like to say bout my experiences here.So in ending Drs.nursing staff is most unprofessional/rude/arrogant ppl.if ur extremely ill,like I was,GO TO ANOTHER DR.

Dr Nemec didn’t want to listen to me and my daughter he just wanted to talk fast and in medical terms that I didn’t understand. He was in a big hurry to get to the next patient that he informed me he was already late for. Poor follow up. Sent me letters telling me I had an auto immune disease “that typically turns to cirrhosis of the liver in 5-15 years”. Then sent me 2 very different result letters about the same test (that was done in their office). I am not impressed

My daughter had severe stomach pains, she got scheduled for an endoscopy a month away. She had 5 ER visits, 2 Squad rides to ER, 1 admittance. I called and asked that they move her procedure up and they refused, they told me to call and ck for cancellations so I called and got voice mail and the scheduler would never call me back. When she had the procedure done the doctor diagnosed her with something she met no criteria for and when I disagreed it they fired her from the office.

This is a very busy group practice. After first visit, physician hands patients over to PAs and that's about it, unless something really important happens. Physician seems distracted and waiting to get on to next patient. Physician does not appear to do any investigative work following consultation as on might expect for difficult or chronic conditions. Be prepared to be classified has having IBS unless you present some really obvious symptoms.
