"This was my first visit with Dr. Schowengerdt. From the time of checking in at the receptionist's desk to the intake nurse and to my consultation with Dr. Schowengerdt, I found the staff to be quite friendly, professional and a creating a feeling of ease."
"I absolutely LOVE Dr Schowengerdt!! He is very personable and talks to you like a real person. He never seems rushed. He is the best GI I have ever been to. If he doesn’t know something, he is eager to learn and find out more. I have gastroparesis and he may not know everything about it as it is rare… but he’s traveled my journey with me amazingly!!!"

"Friendly, relaxed atmosphere at the office. Come a little early for paperwork - there are a few things to review prior to the procedure even if you’re pre-registered. Nurses were great - made sure I was comfortable and at ease. Also met with anesthesia pre-procedure who was also very nice and professional.
