Reviews
He is a great Doctor always their for me
Everyone was very pleasant, courteous and showed care and concern from the moment I entered the office and even checked on me days after. I’m well pleased
I was very scared to have my test done. But Dr. Venturatos was very understanding and so was his staff. I would recommend him to anyone. He eased my fear and my experience was excellent.
This was my third visit to the West Bank office. Every visit has been great, Dr. Venturatos and staff make you feel comfortable, and prepare you well for your procedure. The nursing staff is excellent, they care for you in a professional manner, yet also with warmth. I highly recommend this practice and especially Dr. Venturatos.
Dr. Venturatos is an excellent doctor. He took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure in advance and he has great bedside manners. The office staff was also kind and caring. Everyone involved in my medical procedure demonstrated professionalism. Thank you Metropolitan Gastroenterology Associates for taking good care of me.
