Patient Reviews
Jan 06, 2024
I was really pleased with Dr. Ghassemi. I moved 2 years ago to NC and an old problem recurred. I was able to get an appointment within a reasonable time. Dr. Ghassemi listened and asked all the right questions to try to figure out the issue. She told me that the GI Scheduling was booked out several months. I was able to get an appointment about 4 months out, but needed to be with a different doctor.But here is the thing--the problem with scheduling and with getting appointments to see Dr. Ghassemi is that there as a high demand for GI doctors and not enough of them, made worse by the new guidelines recommending 1st colonoscopies at age 45. This is NOT Dr. Ghassemi's fault! If you want to wait for Dr. Ghassemi to do your procedure, it WILL be a long wait. It's just how it is. Dr. Ghassemi can't work 24/7. But for routine procedures like colonoscopies and endoscopies, any skilled doctor can perform them, and Dr. Ghassemi coordinates follow up care.
