Reviews
Great doctor, awesome staff, nice office. About as pleasant an experience as you could have going to the doctor.
Great Doctor!
Dr.venturatos take time&explain.staff make you feel comfortable think he is a excellent Dr.
I have been going to Dr. Venturatos for over 20 years. Dr. Venturatos is the Best! Unfortunately he’s retiring, they have a great staff of Doctors. Everyone at The Metropolitan Gastroenterology Center has always been professional. I highly recommend their Doctors. They have a first class brand new Procedure Center that is easily accessible. They moved their office to the corner of Barataria Blvd. and Wichers in Marrero.
The best GI doctor in the area.
