Patient Reviews
Jul 31, 2019
I have been going to Dr. Godiwala for over 25 years. No matter where I have lived in the US I have always gone to him for my gastric issues. He is the BEST. His office staff is amazing. You can tell they enjoy working there. I trust Dr. Godiwala implicitly. I have never had to wait long to schedule an appointment. He is the only person I will go to for my endoscopy and colonoscopy procedures.
