"Dr. Umar knows his stuff. I had diverticulitis, went through a complete dose of Augmentin that didn’t throw it, my primary care doctor prescribed me the same thing all over again for a second go around. dr. Umar prescribe me top-of-the-line antibiotics (the big guns, Levoquin & Metronidazole) which worked after the Augmentin wouldn’t. I was able to get rid of it, and felt better after three orfour days. He spent the time listening to my concerns, which I told him I didn’t think being on the same antibiotic that didn’t work the first go around, why would I wanna be on it a second go around. He agreed, and it did the job. I trust him."

"Great Dr. Went to ER for suvier pain. Had several tests and was told I was constipated.

"While a Colonoscopy is not something you look forward to, I will say that I won't dread it in the future. Dr. Umar and his entire staff was very communicative, helpful, and caring. The instructions for the procedure were clear and concise and I was even texted a reminder on when to start prepping. At the procedure, everyone was so kind and efficient. I typically have issues with anesthesia but they listened to me and adjusted. It was a great experience and I would highly recommend Dr. Umar, his practice and all of his staff."

"If I could give him 10 stars I would. I’ve had this condition since 2017. Within 30 seconds of me explaining what was happening he pulled up the exact situation with a picture showing it on his computer. He is totally professional, yet friendly and kind. I get annual checkups regularly. I see my doctor (Dr. Saul Amber, who referred me to him. He even called him on his personal phone and told him he was sending me over.) at the first sign of anything I get checked. I had a colonoscopy done in the same facility as his office. I am 76 and in all my years of having procedures done, I have Never been so impressed with it!!! It ran like a well tuned clockwork."
"Ive seen Dr.Umar 5 times in the past 9 years. 3 office visits, 1 which was virtual during COVID that went very well. In addition I saw him 2 other times where he performed a Colonostocopy procedure. In all of the visits he was Very Courteous, Kind, Caring, Proffesional, Thorough, and Knowledgeable. He is Very easy to talk with and listens very well. An excellent comminicator. From there he gets right to the point explaining in lay terms what he believes is happening with symptoms and or tests provided. He will explain what he will do and what I needed to do prior to procedures. He explained the results of the procedures he performed in lay terms. In one case he reccomended a surgeon that I needed to see ASAP which I did and that surgeon performed very well. I have recommended Dr. Umar to a friend and to my wife. I would highly recommend Dr. Umar to anyone looking for a doctor for their gastero intestinals needs."

"I have been taking my special needs son to Dr. Umar for a year and a half now. We have a family history of colon cancer so my son needed a colonoscopy at only 20 years old and Dr. Umar agreed and made it happen with insurance coverage. Then my son started having GI problems a year later likely due to EDS and Dr. Umar's MA got him in quickly specifically to Dr. Umar. He is all about patient comfort and what is realistic for the patient, down to earth, no ego (but is phenomenal), genuinely cares, no long waits, explains everything. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone!"
