Best GI around!! He properly diagnose me while pregnant with gall bladder disease.
It is interesting to see the dichotomy between these reviews. I am sixty-five years old and have had four stomach surgeries. Between California and here I have seen many gastroenterologists. Doctor Karam is the best I have had. He is all business but if you ask or tell him what you want and that you need more of his time, he will make every effort to satisfy you. As far as his staff goes I don't put up with somebody being rude and will report it to the doctor if needed. But it takes a lot to upset me, I am retired from Los Angeles Sheriff's Department and am used to people being mad at me. All businesses go through employees due to issues like the ones reported in these reviews, but I don't think that is enough to stop me from seeing a great doctor. When dealing with doctors, occasionally you need them to listen to your side of the story and what you expect from them. So you need to be more assertive when the need arises.
I was diagnosed with Celiac disease by my doctor and my wife scheduled me. I read a few not-so-positive reviews and was very much not excited for this appointment.
Dr. Karnam was fantastic. Very quick (which was what I needed), but insistent that I check into a few things with the new diagnosis. What stood out to me was when my wife started asking questions about my 7 year old boy (whose blood work had come back the previous day) and the strong possibility that he too is Celiac. Dr. Karnam got on his phone, gave my wife his cell number, and said that he'd be getting in touch with a friend of his to see what he could do.
This guy is amazing! If you have any weird GI problems, go to him. He has a common sense approach and is efficient and thorough.
I can say that I was genuinely VERY PLEASANTLY SURPRISED in every way. The staff was all very friendly, polite, and quick. The facilities were new and looked fantastic.
03/08/2017 My second visit with Dr. Karnam and I can't say enough kind words about him. He is very nice and caring. His staff are very nice as well. Very glad my physician referred me. I live in Springville but the drive is way worth it.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND The Gut Whisperer! I don't give many reviews, but this one I felt strongly about posting. A+ Service!
Long story short. He followed through with his associate and we're being seen much sooner than had we not received a strong referral from Dr. Karnam.
I have had a doctor tell us that my mother-in-law was going to be on a breathing tube he was going to insert in her neck and that she would be in hospice care for the rest of her life. I told him we have power of attorney and that he was not going to put a breathing tube in her and that he was to stop the pain medicine. As our argument progressed he was telling me he was the expert and that I should listen to him, but I told him we were the experts with regard to her. It has been six years since the argument and she is fine, so if you feel they are making the wrong decision or you want them to address something that is more important to you, tell them.
He saved mine and my baby's life life!
I would highly recommend Doctor Karnam to anyone. He knows his stuff and has helped me with issues outside of my stomach problems. He is very knowledgeable and smart. Great Doctor!
