"Previous patient of Dr. Wells (retired) at Arizona Digestive Health years ago and was very impressed with the practice at that time. Time to take care of myself again and when I reached out I was fortunate to get Doctor Hauptman through a referral from my PCP.i was very impressed with the office staff and their efficiency. Dr. Hauptmann was very professional and informative. Not really looking forward to my upper/lower GI studies, but I know I am in good hands. Caveat: I'm a healthcare provider (PA) and have high standards for myself when I practice. Arizona Digestive Health matched my standards."

"I recently saw Dr. Hauptman after being referred to him. He was very friendly and really took the time to listen to me. Rather than saying “uh huh…” to every complaint, he typed everything I was saying and asked interactive questions that showed he was actually listening. All of his staff were very nice to me. He was able to get me into an endoscopy the next morning and was able to get me in 45 minutes earlier than expected! The facility he did the procedure at was very clean and the staff was also extremely nice. He took the time to talk to me after the procedure rather than making me wait for results and I woke with no throat pain or anything. This was just a few days ago and the medication he prescribed has already started improving how I feel everyday. He also consistently messaged the surgeon he referred me to while I was still in his office until they called me to make my appointment hehe. I would definitely recommend him!"
"Professional staff in a busy office. The wait for the doctor was less than 15 minutes. The doctor was serious and to the point with specific instructions to follow. He said he would follow up in two weeks. Dr. Hauptmann was very knowledgeable when I returned two weeks later he had specific recommendations and showed great interest in my case. Unfortunately, I had to be hospitalized for another condition. Dr. Hauptmann consulted with the hospital staff and gave valuable information. I will always be grateful for Dr Hauptman’s care."
"Front desk extremely nice. Dr Hauptman very professional. The schedule gentleman was unfriendly and cold. He gave me the paperwork for prep and I asked him if it was 2 day prep and he rudely said the doctor didn't tell him it was 2 day. I told him I was told 2 day. He look discussed and got up to find doctor. He came back and said 2 day is the same paperwork. I started to ask do I double everything and he said yes. I started asking him questions and discussed again he went to file cabinet and got the 2 day paperwork and gave it to me. I said so there is 2 day paperwork and he glared at me and said nothing, not we are all set or thanks or anything and I walked away. Absolutely looked bothered to be helping me and put out to have to get the correct paperwork. Ruined an otherwise pleasant experience."

If it’s not, then that means there is more wrong. But like he said the timeline fits. Cross your fingers! Tired of being hoarse!"
"I can't say enough about this office. I received the medical red carpet as if I was a celebrity. I had an appt 12/20 with Dr Hauptman he listened to what I had to say and what was happening with me.
