"Dr Lamendola is good. Be prepared to wait to get to her. Still having constipation side anbd back pain and side affects from the meds we are trying but cannot get in to the test until Dec10th.

So I urge anyone who's at the age to have your colonoscopy. Please do so, don't wait. You will be in good hands."

"Staff are excellent. They don’t leave you sitting in the waiting room or doctor’s office for a long period of time. I felt like my concerns were addressed and I felt like I was listened to and not just heard. I felt like I was involved in my treatment plan."
"Dr Barker is an excellent physician. He listens and modifies his care instructions accordingly to what you tell him. That’s refreshing as some doctors have an idea and they never adjust.He’s Outstanding!"
"Heather was so nice and listened to me. Then she gave me her advice for a new medicine that might help my problem. It hasn't made me sick so hope it works."
"There was a mix-up about where I was supposed to go in the building but the guy that was running the sonogram thing and his secretary or nurse were very understanding and took me in and got everything done so Dr. Maltby could see what I needed and we've done that and we've got known to some other things that he wants to check. So yes it was very good"
"For the most part I have been very satisfied. I especially like the PAs, Rebecca and Heather. I had to use a wheelchair and the receptionist brought me upstairs and had someone meet me there. I very much appreciated their kindness and help."

"Dr. Chris Christensen and his staff are fantastic. I've never felt like I was being rushed through my appointments. His nurses take their time to make sure all of my medicines, allergies, or hospital stays are up-to-date on their computer system. Dr. Christensen takes his time questioning me, and always asks if I have any questions for him. I've been going to Dr. Christensen for over 25 years now, and I've never had any problems."
"My recent visit to Gastroenterology Associates went very well from start to finish. I was checked in promptly and courteously. The physician assistant I saw was Rebecca Landry. She was knowledgeable and helpful. She patiently answered all of my questions. I was seen on time and not rushed. I would definitely recommend her and this clinic."
"Check-in is easy. All staff I encountered were pleasant and was pleased with the appointment with Mary Buckwalter! Have been a long time patient of Dr. Be and have always been satisfied with the care I receive!"
"Every step in the departments, every interaction with staff, and every moment of my visit was handled by caring, competent, and efficient individuals. They were all exemplar in the attention to me and to my needs. Wonderful experiences and high standards seemed to be their expectations for all who were entrusted to their care. I highly recommend them as the first choice to anyone with Gastroenterology concerns!"
"Very friendly staff. Dr. Lamendola makes the visit comfortable by explaining everything to you so that you understand what services she will be providing to you and why."
"Mallori the NP was very thorough and listened to everything I said then recommended an x-ray and then called me at home and explained the treatment she recommended. However, I tried to call her back with questions. I called and texted Friday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday mornings. I never received a call back until 4:45 on Wednesday."
"My experience with this appointment was very comfortable . Everything that I needed was taken care of and my appointments was given to me when to come back thank you."
"The staff were great but was disappointed to learn I had to wait almost 3 months for a procedure dues to insurance that is accepted at other facilities. I realize that’s not 100% the doctors issue but I feel like they can negotiate with oschner for more availability"
"Love clinic staff and drs. Always thorough & professional. However the nurse who brought me to room. Yawned (not discreet yawns, im talking major open mouth yawns) the entire time while I was explaining my symptoms. It was very distracting and disconcerting. Rest of visit with Heather was great, very thorough & professional"
"DR. BE’ AND HIS NURSING STAFF ARE THE GREATEST! DR. BE’ HAS A BEAUTIFUL PERSONALITY AND BEDSIDE MANNER. HE IS MOST INTELLIGENT AND KNOWS EXACTLY HOW TO GET YOUR MEDICAL PROBLEMS SOLVED. I WOULD RECOMMEND DR. BE’ TO ANYONE LOOKING FOR “THE ABSOLUTE FINEST GASTROENTEROLOGIST IN BATON ROUGE, LA”. HE IS VERY THOROUGH IN DIAGNOSING WHERE THE PROBLEM IS AND WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT. I HAVE BEEN GOING TO DR. BE’ FOR A LONG TIME AND I FEEL SO GRATEFUL TO HAVE HIM AS MY DR. HE IS THE BEST!"
"Took a lot longer than previous prep visits. I explained that they usually prescribe a prep solution that my insurance doesn’t cover ($100 usual price) and could we try for an acceptable alternative. I received my order and was sent across the hall to pharmacy. As noted, it was $100 and $65 with a coupon. No thank you. They then sent me back across the hall and I had to wait to talk again with intake associate (who was great btw) and she had to fiddle around and find a product on my formulary list. All told, I think I was there almost 2.5 hours."
"Check in was normal procedure, nurse bringing me into room was friendly & Dr Lamendola is a gentle persuader in maintaining my health. I thank you all."
"Great experience with my office exam with PA, Heather she was very knowledgeable and took a decent amount of time with our visit and examination. She also explained everything very well to me."
"Rebecca Landry is one of the most caring professionals that I have ever met. She makes me feel heard and cared about. Thank you for her and the entire staff."
"The receptionist I had was so very rude I have never been talked to in such a terrible way! She was the youngest receptionist there. She just as soon called me a liar as not! She said the Insurance card I give all my Drs offices to was not the correct one, so I gave her 3 other ones all with the same id numbers and she still said it was incorrect I told her I have had the same insurance since 2013 and have been going there since before then and all my other doctors have no problem with the card! I have Humana Gold Plus! I get new cards every year and I am a nurse my self and she made an awful face and rolled her eyes at me! I wasn’t rude in any way to her at all! I’ve had no trouble anywhere else I go! She said that what I gave her was for prescriptions only!!! It’s All on the same card as is my dental too! Then I sat for over 55 minutes and went back up to see if she knew how long it would be because I had another appointment I had to go to! She said she didn’t know! I was there early for my 8:15 appointment and I had an appointment at 10:00 in Prairieville. She would not call in the back to check . I finally got to the back and was told they were never notified I was there until I went back and asked the nurse who was calling patients back! I’ve been going to Dr McDonald for many years and if I didn’t like him so much I would be trying to find another Dr because of how I was treated!! The NP Carolyn Borne is also excellent and gave me a number to call if I ever have trouble again! So overall my experience was not so pleasant as I had to deal with the very unkind receptionist and I feel she should be reprimanded for her behavior ."
"I was treated with respect. The Doctor seemed very concerned about my prognosis and wanted to get to the bottom of the problem in my Stomach. I truly hope everything works out for the best."
"Mallorie Fletcher, NP was very thorough in her examination. She listened to my concerns empathetically and gave me options for treating my ailments. Mallorie was very attentive and showed both compassion and concern. I found her to be extremely knowledgeable and supportive."
"Dr. Reddy’s PA., Mallory took care of me and made plans for testing of some recent problems. Not only is Dr. Reddy familiar with patients with Lynch, so is Mallory."
"I truly am impressed with Brittany Hill .Both times that I have seen her is personal and yet professional. I truly have to say that anytime I have to see her I will try to be there."
"My appointment for a check up went well. My health history was reviewed along with pertinent questions re my current condition. I felt the visit was handled professionally & cordially."
"Some of your nurses have on the way out before the Pharmacy has a tendency of talking down to patients. I really didn’t care for her at all. You asked my opinion so there it is. Mallori and the lady after her was fine. I guess it’s the fact that she was new and trying be perfect was her thing. I did retail management for 40 years but I never thought I was above the job. Here’s a chance for a teaching class. Have someone play a customer and check out the bedside manner."
"Timely office visit. Schedule for procedure convenient and easy appointment time. Very informative staff. Pleasant positive interactions with Dr.Lamendola and her staff team."
"Setting up a future procedure. Met with Mallori, nurse practitioner for Dr. Mark Porta. Mallori was great. Answered all my questions. Very good team!"
"I had a beautiful experience with Gastroenterology Associates. Everyone was very pleasant and attentive to my needs l will give them a 100 percent recommendation to anyone."

"The people at the Gastroenterology clinic are friendly and professional. Sincerely concerned about the well-being of their patients. I would recommend them to anyone."
"Staff and doctors are very polite they all listen to you and help to solve the issues as fast as they can. Very clean facility I would recommend them to all my friends and family! I love them 💗 They Care about there patients!!"
"I’m been in a lot of pain for the last three months and been putting off being treated. because I didn’t want to be seen by Doctor Oubre. I am recovering from cervical fusion so I didn’t want to go through anything else. The nurses aide that checked me in and asked all the questions was one of the sweetest little girls I’ve ever seen There. However, I want to change doctors and that has been a trial at a time that I am in a lot of pain and need the care. The first doctor I asked for refuse, and then I asked for someone else, and they haven’t even called me back. Kind of disappointing since I have been in so much pain. As I write this, I am sitting in LOL emergency room to be admitted and treated . Hopefully they can get to the bottom of this."
"Dr. Be’s NP, Mary Buckwalter, was very thorough and directive in discussing my issues. I was seen promptly and received helpful information. I was very pleased with the overall visit."
"These doctors truly care about their patients. You are seen quickly and questioned thoroughly about your health. I wouldn’t go anywhere else for my gastroenterology needs."
"I love everything about this place, one stop shop. Dr Lamendola is the absolute best. Above and beyond caring about her patients well being and overall health."
"This was my first time there and my first time ever meeting a GI doctor. And let me just say that this was hands down the best experience I have had with any doctors office/staff. I walked in 15 min early, got checked in in less than 5 minutes, sat down and maybe sat down for 3 minutes before I was called back. I was there for over an hour but needed multiple things done so I was okay with how long I was there for. All of the staff are so nice and helpful, and Dr. Kurz listened to me and all of my concerns and is going the extra mile for me."
"I am a New patient to this facility, you get anxious and nervous about the Gastroenterologist experience, however; they put all of my anxious thoughts at ease. I would highly recommend this facility and I am very pleased with my choice of doctor and NP..."

"I WAS TREATED REAL GOOD, EVERYONE WAS PROFESSIONAL, THEY EXPLAINED WHAT WAS GOING ON WITH ME, THE DOCTOR ALSO EXPLAINED THE TREATMENT, THAT I HAD TO TAKE,I WOULD TELL ALL MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS, THAT THEY TREATED ME, LIKE SOMEBODY."
"The receptionist I had was so very rude I have never been talked to in such a terrible way! She was the youngest receptionist there. She just as soon called me a liar as not!

Then I sat for over 55 minutes and went back up to see if she knew how long it would be because I had another appointment I had to go to! She said she didn’t kno! I was there early for my 8:15 appointment and I had an appointment at 10:00 in Prairieville. She would not call in the back to check .

I be been going to Dr McDonald for many years and if I didn’t like him so much I would be hyping to find another Dr because of how I was treated!! The NP Carolyn Borne is also excellent and gave me a number to call if I ever have trouble again! So overall my experience was not so pleasant as I had to deal with the very unkind receptionist and I feel she should be reprimanded for her behavior ."

"My spouse and I see 12 different doctors. Only one has a long check-in process. I'm not sure which process is longer - checking in at the Gastroenterology Associates office with their new computer check-in process .. or purchasing a house. I'm glad came 30 minutes early. It's smooth sailing after suffering though the check-in process! My suggestion: make the process easier."

THANKS😍 Dr. Leo and staff. Dorothy Selders"

I was unaware of the fact that there were any NPs seeing patients until my last visit when , being overdue for my regular appointment, I was scheduled with a NP. She was great. Warm, caring ( which I’d already come to expect), personable, and she got me a prescription version of an over the counter medication at considerable savings.

Then the assistant to the PA was courteous and took her time to be thorough in the pre-assessment information such as vital signs, medication list review and corrections and the reason for my visit so that the PA would be prepared. The PA moved quickly, talked and typed really fast due to my lateness but she still managed to address my issues and order the test that I need to have done to completely assess my ailments. That to me is having the best of both worlds getting it all done in their own special way and I appreciate their care."

"I have always had good things to say about going here and I really like Dr Chauvin. I have had him for all my family members because I like him. He has good bed side manners and is straight to the point and what we are going to do to get us relief or how we are going to get to that point. The only negative thing that I would say is the prep. The prep keeps changing and this new One with the two bottles was not good for prep. I never got clean and that was after doing everything they tell you to do for four days before your procedure. Go back to the one bottle with the two tablets by Dulcalax. This one worked great. Over all the nurses and doctors were great!!! I would tell anyone to go here."
"The PA, Brittany Hall, was wonderful! She was patient and clearly explained issues. She was, like the physicians at this group, very thorough. Follow-up was great. I’m an RN and I am not prone to great reviews of medical groups, but I definitely recommend this one!"
"Dr Barker is the best. He listened to all my concerns and answered all my questions and my husband's. He was very knowledgeable and treated me with care and concern. He didn't brush me off or make me feel like I was crazy. He is an example of how all doctors should be."
"I love the staffs manners with the patients. Dr. Michael Barker is awesome and honest. He listens to you to understand what issues he can address for his patients. . I highly recommend this TDDC"
"Everyone was welcoming, organized, and professional throughout the process! Mallori- Dr. Nelson’s NP was great! She was very professional, caring, and thorough in the diagnosis of my issues. Very easy to talk to!"
"I would whole heartedly recommend everyone to give Gastroenterology Associates a try. I have been a patient there for years and have received top-notch care under Dr. Andrew Nelson and staff. He is patient and give attention to his patients needs.They make you feel safe and comfortable. Thanks for providing me with excellent care. I love this place and you would too. Give them a call!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤"
"I feel that my practitioner works in my best medical interest, and I trust her judgment. She listens to my concerns, and has a treatment plan to move forward. Mallory and my doctor are a team who works well together on my behalf."
"I have been a Patient here for over 16 years. First with Dr W Anderson and than Dr JW McDonald. Best Doctors in the world. Even my Pain Management has Dr McDonald as his Belly Doc. I'm pretty sure he has a lot of Patients, but when I'm in for a visit it's like I am his only one."
"Everyone was friendly and very helpful. The Dr. was very nice and asked alot questions and paid attention to my answers. It was my first time there. Defenitely would recommend going there."

"I applaud this group for exceptional patient care! For months I have suffered with acute abdominal pain. My primary care physician diagnosed the problem and referred me. Because my Doctor wasn't immediately available I was scheduled to see Physician Assistant Kasey Gora. SHE IS WONDERFUL! Although she provided excellent care and has a wonderful beside-manner, it was her follow-up that made me feel as though she truly cared. She called me on a Saturday morning! But, it wasn't just a phone call, it was a conversation. She did not just ask a general question! She was very specific and listened to my responses. She even explained why I should be filling better and the continued plan of care. During my follow-up appointment, she was very intent on ensuring I knew what to do to minimize the Diverticulitis. She is Awesome!"
"I continue to be impressed with the level of expertise and professionalism exhibited here. Lately I've had the pleasure of seeing Dr Barker. He and his personal assistants have even further impressed me by adding a degree of friendliness and personality that has brought my overall experience to an even greater level of satisfaction. I feel very confident in recommending this facility in general and Dr Barker in particular."
"My experience at this clinic was awesome. The staff is exceptionally kind and professional. Especially my physician Dr. Mullins, he is so patient, kind and understanding. He takes the time to listen to any and everything you have to say regarding your health issue(s). Then, he begins to brain storm to figure out what needs to be done to resolve the issue(s). Viewers you can’t find a better clinic nor physician anywhere in the country better than this one, I have been coming to this clinic for over 20 years."
"I have been a patient of Dr Kirk Mullins for over 20 years at the Gastroenterology Clinic. He has professionally attended to both me and my husband’s medical needs. He not only is highly regarded in his medical profession he is also genuinely caring as a human being. I would recommend Dr Mullins to anyone who is in need of his medical specialty. Donna Belanger"
"Mallori Fletcher is the Nurse Practitioner who probably saved my life. She sent me for an ultrasound where a cancerous lump was found in the muscle of my stomach lining. I had surgery and chemo and am now Cancer-free. Thank you, Mallori, for your professionalism, conscientiousness and kindness. Because you chose to err on the side of caution, I am here today. I can’t say enough good things about Mallori Fletcher!"
"Dr. Chapman is by far the most helpful and understanding doctor I have ever seen. He has been the only doctor to get my health issues under control. I recently had the pleasure of a video appointment with Kasey Gora. She was so amazing in answering my recent concerns. She is definitely an asset for the clinic. I would also like to say how wonderful and kind the nurses are in the infusion department. Any time I have questions or concerns they respond quickly and give very helpful information and advice."
"They were very accurate with the time frame that they gave me for my procedure. Everybody was extremely nice and very professional. I highly recommend the doctor and the place."
"Top notch! She took her time with me, I NEVER felt rushed, and her knowledge and experience really came through. It really reassured me everything would be ok!"
"This was my first time to see Mallory. She was thorough and was on time. I hate waiting for an appointment and she was on time. Very easy to talk to."
"I am extremely pleased with the care I received from Rebecca Landry, MD. at Gastroenterology Associates. She was very attentive! She showed genuine concern to finding the cause and solution for my discomfort. And I must say this was far from my experience in Ascension. Fortunately, I know now that I am receiving exceptional care at Gastroenterology Associates. I’ve finally found a Gastro physician to take my concerns seriously! I left that office feeling heard and respected while maintaining my dignity! I genuinely trust Rebecca to care for me and my gastrointestinal issues. I certainly encourage YOU, if you are uncomfortable with your current physician or perhaps looking for a Gastro specialist, call Gastroenterology Associates in Baton Rouge, LA today!"
