The reviews listed below were collected independently of AZ Gastro Care through rater8. Each review represents an authentic and verified patient experience.
I have had many of these procedures before this most recent with this Dr. He was horribly rushed, spoke to me for a few seconds. When I saw him again in the room. He walked in and started rushing everyone else. I awoke and had bites in my mouth a swollen lip, major headache and my neck hurt. He came in to let me know of the biopsies he took. Mentioned nothing of my UC, nothing of my Barrets. When I asked him about how my Barrets looked, he said he didn't see anything and that Barrets could heal itself. Which is not true. Making me question if he had even looked at my medical history. I would say no, considering I've had 2 cervical fusions and came out feeling like I did. NEVER have I felt this way after any surgery or Endoscopy.

Dr. Qureshi seems like a nice guy but he never really asked me any questions.
My first appt was to see him bc of elevated blood tests showing inflammation. He said he needed to do an endoscopy and colonoscopy to rule out Crohns. He never asked me about symptoms, or felt my stomach which always seems bloated. When I went back for my follow-up this week he just said good news “No cancer, or polyps!” And that was it. I had a Whipple procedure 3 years ago and he never asked me anything about that. I had to ask him if I had Gerd or hemorroids, yes I do. He said I didn’t have any inflammation and when I told him I’m always bloated he said he’d write a prescription to take for a month.
I picked up the prescription and it is prescribed for ppl with IBS and stomach cramping, neither of which have. It also states that it can cause constipation and bloating so I am not going to take it.
I give Dr Qureshi 3-4 star bc he has never asked me any questions in the 2 minute appts.

I am extremely pleased with the care I was provided by Dr. Qureshi. His manner was pleasant and supportive while commanding respect and conveying confidence, compassion and competence. Preliminarily results he was able and inclined to provide were reassuring. I urge AZ Gastro Care to continue demonstrating its superb commitment to excellence by hiring additional staff of Dr. Qureshi’s caliber.

With Dr Qureshi, 1st time to meet him and just less than 5 mins interface. So far, nothing negative to say. HOWEVER,
Those staffs @ the receiving desk must be rated the lowest negative rating! There were 3 staffs I interfaced with excluding a manager inside who they consulted with. Pls. Call me because that was a stressful situation I was in when I was checking in for my 8:15AM appointment on Jan 14, 2025. I don’t wish someone be put in same situation as I was in esp I am a senior 78 years old with health conditions. My name is:
BERTITA LEDDA. Contact # 480-5593857. Thank you and waiting for your call so I could explain the whole situation in details. I worked ‘til I retired and don’t deserve such stressful treatment.
