"My experiences with Dr. Hebert Mayer has always been very positive. He's very easy to talk to about my gastrointestinal issues. He is really an excellent doctor, listens to me about my concerns, makes great diagnoses, explains them in easy to understand terminology along with the medical terminology.
From the moment he enters, his office he has this infectious smile and warmth about him that makes me feel less tense and uneasy unlike most doctors who usually makes me feel like I'm literally in stitches when he or she enters the room.
He performs both my upper and lower g.i. tests. Before either test, he talks very reassuringly to me, ask if I have any questions. He's a really caring doctor, loves his patients, and outcome whether or not good or bad I know I am in really good hands."
"When I met with Dr Mayer for the pre-procedure consultation, he was unhurried and so very thorough in his explanation that there was no need for me to ask any questions. On the day of the procedure, he checked on me while I was being prepped and again after I was moved into the recovery room. I could not have asked for a more compassionate, caring, and gentle doctor"
"In a time where doctors are faced with so much stress and anxiety of their own, there is a doctor that exemplifies care and genuine concern for his patients. Dr Mayer saw me through a recommendation for an unknown illness. He was thorough asking many questions but most importantly listened to me, his patient as I told him my symptoms. What was more impressive than his wonderful bedside manner was him having his office calling me to check up on me to see if my issues were resolved. I even felt comfortable enough to bounce things off of him rather than some of the other doctors I had seen when I was recommended to other specialists for my problem when it was not in his field of expertise. I cannot say enough about him and his staff, including Missy his nurse. I recommend anyone who is lucky enough to be in his care."

"The way Dr. Mayer walked in the room, I knew the appointment would be great! He asked the right questions, and he listens to his patient. That is the most important aspect of any appointment, listening to the patient. His bedside manner is superb!! I can’t wait to see him at my next appointment"
"Dr. Mayer has been my GI specialist for the past 21 years, and I wouldn't change a thing if I had the chance. He's always been knowledgeable, professional, empathetic, and personable. In a world full of physicians who can't remember your name or take the time to know you and your individual issues, Dr. Mayer has been a Godsend for me and my family. He's always taken the time to listen to me because he understands that I know my body like no one else and he can't help me if I don't feel informed of and included in my treatment plan. I've fired doctors for that reason alone! He's an amazing person, which I've learned over the last few decades, and I recommend him to anyone in my life who may ever need GI treatment...even my own family. Oh, I'm also a registered nurse and have worked with many doctors during my career. I know a great one when I encounter them. He's the real deal."

May God bless and keep you for all that you do"
"Extremely kind very professional Doctor who takes all the time necessary to explain in vernacular your condition. A wonderful gentleman as well. I had complete confidence in his skill and dedication."
"I offer this superior rating to Dr. MAMayer and one of his assistants, Kathy. My wife and I have been his patients for many, many years. He explained my gastrointestinal is the consummate physician. One is never rushed during an appointment. He fully discusses and explains your medical condition or test to be conducted. What prompted this review is a situation that occurred last week. I explained my symptoms by phone to Kathy She had promptly returned my message. She consulted with Dr. Mayer and they immediately ordered lab tests at Quest. Today she again promptly called me upon receiving partial lab results -- explaining she would call wh the remainder are received. An in-office visit will be scheduled as necessary. All of this was done without a copay. Dr. Mayer put my well-being first! Great people!!!"
"During my visit, Dr Mayer was very kind and patient. He listened to me and I did not feel rushed or ignored, like with some doctors. Based on my first visit, I would recommend him to anyone. I wish he could be GP, honestly. And I will add that the front desk clerks and the nurses were also very pleasant and professional."
