"The service was on time. I enjoyed my visit. I didn't have to wait long to find out what I needed to heal myself. Thanks to the staff. You were great. I'm not saying it is going to be easy to follow their instructions but I'll try very hard to think before I put something wrong in my mouth for my health's sake. My goal is to be 144 lbs from 265 lbs on my next appointment. I received the papers to go by to buy food in the future for that reason. Be blessed."

"GI is ok. The only thing I don’t understand is why can you see your doctor instead of the nurse practitioner. Don’t get me wrong I really liked the Practitioner I saw.
And I told them I needed them to take a picture of my upper area. But they didn’t explain why they are not doing that. But over all I love GI ASSO."

And how I was feeling and while I was there at that time I explain to her my problem she then told me my results after my examination and gave me the current medication and told me within 24 to 48 hours if I wasn’t better to please call her back.

"Staff very friendly and professional. Love the care I receive. They listen to you, answer any questions and genuinely care about your health. They encourage me to stay on track with my health giving examples of things to help. Put resources in place that help me maintain a healthy liver and body. Call through the co-ordinate care program and provide valuable suggestions, ideas, videos, literature etc to help me maintain a healthy lifestyle! They made sure I was provided with a scale through Medicare that is used for daily weight monitoring by GI Liver Clinic and team. I feel so blessed to have a knowledgeable and caring NP (Carrie) and Dr Reed B Hogan on my care team. Without your expertise, care, diligence with my medical issue resolve, and ease in talking with in answering questions and addressing my concerns then I wouldn’t be where I am today -6 months later- with a now healthy liver and 30 lbs weight loss.
