"I have been working with Dr.Mathews over the past 2 years, and listened to all my symptoms and ran a lot of tests to determine the cause of my pain and nausea and helped my find something wrong with my gallbladder, I was scared to get surgery because I didn’t have the classic gallbladder issues like gallstones but he explained that there are other factors that can cause my gallbladder to not work and sure enough my surgeon did confirm that my gallbladder was becoming diseased and I got it out before any of my issues started to get even worse. Thank god for Dr.Mathews as he was the one that went to many lengths to figure out what was wrong!"

Highly recommend Dr. Matthew’s, he has terrific bedside manner and easy to talk with."

"Excellent doctor. Listens well. Speaks clearly and answers questions. He doesn’t rush but doesn’t waste time either. I would recommend this doctor to anyone that needs a GI specialist."
"Dr. Mathews is fantastic at what he does, but he can also be somewhat dismissive. Let me explain: I went in for issue “A.” He told me that it was rare, that it doesn’t happen often and that it could be something else. He scheduled me for a colonoscopy, and he confirmed that he didn’t see anything related to the problem I came in for. After my colonoscopy (where he found and fixed other problems) my original problem was still bothering me. He, once again, checked me and said that he didn’t see or notice anything. I felt he was dismissive because he would say things like: “I am not saying it’s not there, but…” “I don’t see anything that could be what you say”, “I am not saying you don’t have it but…” which made me feel like perhaps it was all in my head. He referred me to a different provider, and she immediately identified and confirmed that I, indeed, had the problem I thought I had. In my opinion, a provider should consider what the patient feels and says, and they should be thorough with their examination before immediately dismissing something simply because they don’t see it or because it is rare. Bedside manners and professionalism are most important when dealing with something as delicate as one’s health."
"Only problem I had was that I had to pay a$45. co-pay to be told they don't know why the hospital referred me to them because he saw nothing wrong. But they were fast an nice about it!!! Thank you"
"Dr. Mathew's and his staff were the kindest and most professional people I've ever dealt with. So understanding and listened to every concern I had. Highly recommend."
