"When I saw Dr. Weeks for my first appointment, he was amazing. He absolutely went above and beyond to make sure I got the treatment I needed immediately. I saw him on a Friday morning and he knew I needed to see a general surgeon right away. He went out of his way to personally ensure I saw someone that day and I had surgery on Friday afternoon. Great bedside manner and a clearly knowledgeable and experienced doctor. I appreciate him very much."

"The folks at GI Associates are awesome! They have the routine stuff figured out. We had a quick check-in, went to main lobby for a few minutes, watched a quick video about what to expect in a private viewing area, went to lobby for a few minutes until we were called back to one of several folks assigned to review our information. Then, we were back to the lobby until I was called to go back for my procedure prep. They captured my driver (wife) contact information before going back for the procedure, kept her updated throughout the procedure via SMS text messages, and she was in the recovery room when I awoke from the procedure.
The days leading up to the procedure were no fun, but necessary for ANY facility performing this procedure. I was pleasantly surprised by G.I. Associates' obvious attention to what's required between check-in and post-op and their professionalism that obviously came from years of experience and listening to their customers that was evident throughout my entire experience.
The procedure, itself, was the most surprising experience. I remember asking the nurse how long it was going to take for her sedative to kick in before the procedure, and waking up in the recovery room when a different nurse came in for the second time to try to wake me up. Everything in between, to me, never even happened. Except, of course, when the doctor came in to explain the results of the procedure.
I admittedly have no experience with this particular procedure in any other setting, but I can definitely say that G.I. Associates know what they are doing and have gone above and beyond the experience I'm used to with other general doctor's visits and taken the time to put themselves in our shoes, so to speak, and focus on customer experience, rather than stick you in a lobby for hours without any indication of when/if you may be seen by a doctor."
"Dr Weeks was so very kind and supportive of my situation. Great communicator and he was willing to listen and work with me to get my situation under control."

"Dr. weeks was very knowledgeable and very professional about the procedure I was about to undergo. I felt very comfortable and safe in his care."
"I felt good about this appointment. I was treated so good from the sign in and until I left. Very friendly staff. Dr. Weeks was awesome. He cared about me and wanted to make sure I was getting the best care. I definitely will highly recommend him to family and friends. He’s the friendliest dr I’ve ever met. Thanks so much Dr. Weeks."
"Thanks it was an awkward but needed experience. Thanks to Dr Weeks for taking good care of of me and explaining in detail every step of the procedure. I would recommend Dr Weeks to anyone who is having doubts or apprehensive about having this procedure done."
