Patient Reviews
Nov 08, 2023
Dr. Pleva and his office staff (Especially Taylor) are a fantastic group of medical professionals. During the summer, I was SO sick and kept getting bounced around from physician to physician with very little luck or help, when I was finally told to see a gastroenterologist no one could get me in for months and months, I was essentially bed ridden from pain. When I finally made the call to Dr. Pleva's Office, Taylor took the seriousness of my situation and treated me with so much care, respect and dignity. Within a day I had an appointment to go over my symptoms and two days after that was given the opportunity to have a colonoscopy (Even post them fighting for me with insurance) to diagnose me with Crohn's Disease.They listened, they cared, and they treated me within a more than timely manor. Dr. Pleva gets to the point which I appreciate in a medical professional and he is extremely knowledgeable. Dr. Pleva and his team have truly improved my quality of life and I am so thankful.
