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.

Somewhat puzzled
I have been seeing Dr. Desautels for years. He has always been attentive, explained my condition offered care plan and followed up. My last visit on the 13th was stressful and difficult to explain to the doctor because I was embarrassed. He reviewed our previous discussions and offered me a referral to a specialist. I don’t know why I am experiencing these symptoms. I absolutely recommend Dr. Desautels, but my visit left me wondering why I came.. I fill discounted, perhaps he had a bad day Lynn M

Dr. Desautels spoke to me about 2 minutes before performing a EGD and not once after giving me a diagnosis I already knew and absolutely no follow up regarding my condition. I have no idea why he is apparently giving better care to everyone else here who has rated him well. He didn?t even study records from a previous visit to the ER and then wanted me to schedule a follow up appointment to give me the information he should have in the first place. He is not a good doctor and doesn?t care about his patients? (or at least my) well being. TERRIBLE!

After having trouble with other GI offices, I chose Dr Desautel. I’m a retired RN, so I know what I am talking about. Dr Desautel has a kind and professional bedside manner. He is very knowledgeable and easy to work with. The staff is also amazing. I was in and out of a scope in 90 minutes. Never had that before. Great communication, service, and follow up. I highly recommend him and Granite Peaks GI!

A very pleasant experience at Granite Peaks Endoscopy Center. The inital appointment call, pre-procedure follow ups, emails, front desk, nurses and assistants were fabulous. The escort out to my waiting husband in the parking lot made the visit a pleasure. Each member of the staff did an excellent job in explaining each journey of the procedure and it was "slick as a whistle". Dr. Desautels was very clear on the procedure itself. Thanks to everyone for making a dreaded 10 year examination a very pleasant experience. See you in 10 years!! Sandy D.
