I was referred to Dr. Karakurum when I was at the emergency room. He's a sweetheart! He's personable and knowledgeable. I was having a really hard time, and he put me at ease. His staff is fantastic! Everyone from the receptionist, to the nurse that helped with my procedure, was just fantastic! They were able to get me in the same day I called, which is very rare for a specialist. If I need to see him, I will go back.
Description of Work: Dr. Karakurum is my gastroenterologist. I saw him last September.

I was referred to Dr. Karakurum by my primary care physician after my suggesting it was time for another endoscopy/colonoscopy. The office was very pleasant and the business staff were very pleasant and professional. Dr. Karakurum was very professional but easy enough to talk to. The procedures were scheduled and performed in his office. On the days of the procedures (the endoscopy and colonoscopy were done on separate visits), I was taken to the procedure room on time. The staff was attentive and let me know exactly what would happen. Procedures were conducted without incident and Dr. Karakurum was present when I awoke from the anesthetic and presented me with his overall findings along with a brief wriiten summary with photos of "points of interest". The only unpleasnt part of the experience occured as the anesthetic wore off and more questions came to mind. I was directed to ask the nurse, John. He became impatient and seemed to take offense at being asked questions about the outcome of the procedure. This happened on both days. When I asked about the availability of the final written report he even went so far as to state that I would not be able to see it. With the exception of his reaction to being asked some questions about the procedure, I will say he was very professional. Fortunately, the office staff was more helpful and I was able to obtain the reports. With the exception of the post procedure experience with the nurse, the overall experience was positive and I expect to see Dr. Karakurum again.
Description of Work: Endoscopy & Colonoscopy to check for cause of some mild upper abdominal discomfort.

Information on preparation for the procedure was good. Efficient, friendly nursing care before and after procedure. Anesthetist from local hospital was thorough and attentive with his preliminary questions. Printed report on the results of the procedure was comprehensive and easy to understand. No sense of rush or pressure, although the facility was busy. There was some confusion about the date when biopsy results would be available, but when this was sorted out the follow-up was thorough and clearly explained.
Description of Work: Colonoscopy and upper endoscopy, performed in office.
