"Dr. Godell is very kind (knowing the subject area is hard to talk about). He discovered my cancer and at the immediate changing in my life, Dr. Godell was calm and was making my next steps while i was freaking out. 9 years ago I still have pain but Dr. Godell is working very hard on my pain management. His staff is caring and calm when needed. I would highly recommend him and his PA's for any complaints."

"So many times we have good things to say about our doctor but don't get the opportunity. I want to share my thoughts as well as appreciation for Dr. Godell so that others can know there are still doctors who take the time to listen, address ones concerns, and talk "to you" rather than "at you". That's exactly how Dr. Godell is and I consider myself blessed to have him as my physician. I would refer my friends and family to him in a "heartbeat" . Thanks Dr. Godell for caring."

"I began seeing Dr. Chris Godell because he has treated my son for several years, and we feel he is truly outstanding. I feel so fortunate that Dr. Godell was able to take me as a patient. Even though he has a full schedule, he treats each patient as if s/he is his only patient, and, whatever the gastroenterological concern, he won't stop until he finds a satisfactory solution. Both he and his staff are friendly and personable, and treat each patient with kindness and respect. You leave his office with the confidence that you are in the best possible hands. I highly recommend Dr. Chris Godell!"

"I would like to give Dr. Godell the highest recommendation possible. He is extremely intelligent, takes the time to explain every test, and why you, (the patient), need to undergo that test. He is a gentle soul who truly seems to want to heal his patients. Of all the things I have said, however, it is his demeanor and his intelligence that I most respect. Five stars doesn't truly show how highly I recommend Dr. Godell to other people. Love & Mercy. MM"
