But their signatures are in the picture.). Thankfully I won't have to see them for another 7-10 years. Highly recommend."
"Treated very well, and after the procedure everything was explained to me on the findings, and the direction that will be taken in the future…I recommend SAGA to anybody that needs this type of procedure."
"I really appreciate P.A Ford and the staff at SAGA. Everyone is ALWAYS kind, professional and timely. It's easy to schedule appointments and they really do return phone calls. I appreciate PA Ford in that she is very patient and I never feel rushed. Thank you SAGA for all that you do help your GASTRO patients."
"I only added four stars because my first experience was SAGA was at the Euclid location, where I had my consult. A couple of the staff members were rude and unprofessional, giving the rest a bad name. I was worried about going through with my procedure at that location because I wanted to be treated like a patient should, especially with a procedure like an endoscopy. So I requested for the procedure to be done in the medical center. I was glad I did. The entire staff was highly competent, professional, and warm and friendly. It was my first time going under, and I was a little nervous. But they made me feel so at ease. This is how healthcare should be. I am very grateful to everyone who took care of me. I was a cash patient, and I felt the prices were reasonable too."
"Had a clear understanding of my procedure. However, when I made my appointment with my primary care physician and he read me the results of my endoscope and colonoscopy I was very confused."
"My experience at SAGA was better than I could have asked for. The receptionist was friendly and you could tell she likes what she does. The nursing staff was so attentive, thorough, and I didn’t feel like I was just a number that was being pushed through. Dr Flores was such a calm and reassuring voice before sedation and when I was released going over what he found. When I woke up I was shocked at how quickly it had been done. The staff let me take my time getting ready and explained my post op instructions very well. Given that a colonoscopy isn’t associated with a good experience. I must say it was the best I could have received by a very competent and reassuring staff."
"Doctor or PA Ford is excellent, very kind, affectionate and professional. The entire team of assistants who assisted us were also very friendly. Thank you so much"
"PA Ford and every staff member i spoke with was professional, courteous, caring and efficient. From the time I arrived at the surgical center to the time I left every person made me feel comfortable, at ease. there is no doubt this is the right group of doctors to handle my medical needs."
"This was my initial consult for a colonoscopy. The office staff was very professional and on time. The PA took her time to explain procedure and provide me with a surgical appt. At my convenience."
"Dr taheri listens to his patients concerns and help me so much to understand why and what my conditions were. I would recommend him to anyone that has Gastro issues. 🏼"

Woke up with miminal side effects and home bound to rest up for the day. No issues. After action reports good. See ya in a few years..."
"Very clean place and excellent staff!!! Everyone's very nice and professional. I love it mostly because of how they listen to you. I've been to alot of places where they just prescribe you something just to get you out of the door. But here, they really try to help you.

"I have been a patient here for almost 10 yrs ago. Was diagnosed with colon cancer in 2011. Dr. Jeff Bullock has always been on top that this dies not return. Therefore, I get checked very often. I recommend that you should get a colonoscopy at least every five yrs."
"After suffering months of digestive issues and ineffective treatment at another facility, I'm thankful that my primary doctor referred me to Lori Lee, PA-C at the Medical Center location. Lori Lee has excellent bedside manner, and was very thorough. I finally feel like my issues are being treated properly, and I'm starting to feel like myself again."
"Correcting my earlier review. Four stars vs. two - would be five if they were a bit more responsive to phone calls - however the root cause of the problem was apparently an issue that is not SAGA's fault. Thank you..."
"All of the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. They will answer all your questions and walk you through the procedures and help you understand what needs to be done prior to the procedure. The made a post op telephone appointment for the results of your procedure and we’re right on time. I would definitely recommend them."
"I am very pleased with Dr. Johnson's performance in regard to myself. I like the fact he always gives positive reinforcement to his patients. He did so when he called me on my results. This is my second time with him that he has done the procedure. I would recommend him without hesitation. He is a 5 star Doctor."
"Doctor Alvarez is a great person explain details what he was going to do. I will recommend him to persons that I know that would need a gastric surgeon. Vera Maldonado"
"I have had several issues requiring help from SAGA and Lori has many times been the cheerful, kind, and helpful person that I dealt with. She is a real sweetheart."
"Dr. Belinda Ramirez is very thorough. She is compassionate and caring. She is great about listening to and responding to my concerns. I can't say enough about how I aporeciate her care."
"As a patient of Dr. Lindner for at least the past 10 years, he and his staff have done an excellent job. Very professional and I would recommend Dr Linder to anyone."
"I have suffered with a difficult to resolve issue for several months. Lori Lee has been a joy to work with. She cares deeply about her patients and she is most thorough in search of a solution. She is the kind of medical provider which we all need and hope for when a tough problem presents itself."
"All of the staff that had to service me while had my procedure done were very nice and respectful. They would ask me questions to see how to better service me and keep me calm. I use rollator to move around they made sure to take care during the time I was getting my procedure. They seemed to do everything in a timely manner. Where one staff member had finished servicing me another seamlessly took there place. It was a very smooth system. I would recommend anyone that asked me to go to the offices of Dr. Eddie Flores and his staff at the Medical Center location. They did a great job!"
"Dr Lindner is an exceptional professional doctor. You can tell he genuinely cares about each one of his patients. He makes you feel comfortable discussing your issues and gives you positive solutions that needs to be considered for your well being.

"Lori has helped me through the ups and downs of an unpredictable and chronic disease. She is knowledgeable and considers all contributing factors as she helps me down different treatment paths. When I began at this practice, I thought I was in remission; we quickly discovered that was not the case and have been working to remedy that for the last four or five years. As anyone with chronic disease can tell you, this process is often exhausting, but with an advocate like Lori on my side, I feel so confident that remission is achievable.
