Patient Reviews
Mar 29, 2024
I understand other reviewers complaints regarding Dr. Kanthawar's rather abrupt method of communication. learned from my multiple visits is he wants to complete what he needs to say and does not like to be interrupted. Save your questions till he is done. He did answer my questions, even if I had to ask twice.Yes, he had to rush through appointments because he was the only gastroenterologist in the entire area, making him quite busy.I went to him due to two things. I was well overdue for a colonoscopy, and I began experiencing chronic, daily, profound liquid diarrhea. After the colonoscopy he set up a treatment plan for me and explained thoroughly why it was going to probably take a full year before I was back to my old self. Currently, (March 2024) and six months into my treatment, my colon is showing signs of healing. He recommended weaning myself off the drug and explained exactly how to do that, and how long to take each lowered dose before I need to lower it again.
