"Quick thorough service. Procedure was skillfully explained and all my questions were honored and answered. Staff (from intake to recovery) was professional and friendly"
"Dr. Drake always takes the time to explain things to me and answer questions. He takes the time to help you find the least expensive pharmacy for your medication. He is also straight forward and honest while being very kind. Parking is an issue, I drove around for 10 minutes and saw a couple near accidents because people were frustrated. My particular appointment could have been virtual which would have freed up parking and given Dr. Drake more time for other patients."
"Have been seeing Dr Drake now for just over a year. Good listener and explains things very well. Knowledgeable and very competent. He also seems to be a really nice guy too. Planning on referring others to this dr."
"Is the best. He painlessly handled me. But he pulled 2 wisdom teeth and did not write me something for pain. I had a funeral and am a caregiver.i thought I was going to die. One his young staff was rude saying I was pill seeking. So I suffered thur it. I'll not go back for being mis judged and argue with me a 63 yr old woman in excellent condition missing only 3 teeth. But the doctor was and is awesome.sets up a game plan long term for your mouth. Excellent Dr. Just loved him."

"Quick check in and out. Not much to talk about with the doctor at my follow up. I’m glad I’m feeling better and the rooms have space for my baby’s stroller."

"I went to Indiana Gastroenterology for a 2nd opinion. Due to having SIBO (Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth). I was diagnosed with it in March 2022. I am currently now getting the help and treatment for it. I was treated with professional respect and understanding that this is an serious infection that shouldn't be just put to the side like IU Health did. I currently see Dr. Drake. I like him alot. He took his time and I didn't feel rushed at all. He immediately noticed my issue with my stomach, looking 3 months pregnant all the time. (Which I am not part of the infection always bloated and hard stomach.) I believe what helped me during the appointment was having all my paperwork from another doctor and documenting what issues I had to help decide what needs to be done."
"Bring newer to Indiana it is always hard to find a new doctor. Especially one that you feel comfortable with. But, I hit the jackpot with Dr Drake and his group. They are caring and wonderful. I would highly recommend Indy Gastro and Dr Drake!"
"Dr Drake is fantastic, theres no GI dr around id trust more than him. Only problem with indy gasto is you cant ever reach a live person, sometimes it takes days before you can speak with scheduling."
"Made my visit very comfortable. Impressed that they kept to a schedule. I was not stuck waiting forever. They took time to listen to everything I had going on."
"As unpleasant as the prep was for my procedure, Dr. Drake was very courteous and informative. He spoke with me before and after my procedure. Would highly recommend him"
"Great staff great service Thanks for your convenience of the service you and your staff provided for me I look forward to the next time I need you again !"
"I've only seen Dr. Drake once, since my previous GI doc retired. So far so good. Dr. Drake was prompt, professional, friendly and answered all of my MANY questions... even if the answer was that he didn't know. I respect his honesty! He wasn't hasty and spent adequate time with me."

"My injuries were never treated in a timely manner. Now over 6 months after my accident I am still in a lot of pain. Have another permanent disability. If treated with in 6 weeks of accident or sooner, instead of 12 weeks. I could have made a full recovery. The health care system totally failed me. As for Dr. Drake I got excelent treatment. Staff was great."
"The experience there was about as good as one could have given the procedure that was completed .Everyone involved was knowledgeable, helpful and respectful!"
"Dr. Drake actually cares about his patients. I have a unique situation where I travel for my work and Dr. Drake agreed to follow me via telehealth. I get the necessary blood work done wherever I am at and I have agreed to come to Indy for my colonoscopy. I really appreciate him continuing to follow my care. I think he is an excellent doctor and feel really comfortable with him. And his staff is right on top of things. Any time I have questions, they respond ASAP."
