I had a great experience with Dr Makhani. He's kind, and takes his time to answer any questions and concerns. I had never had a colonoscopy. and I'm many years beyond the recommendations to have it done. He calmed me down and said I'm a good candidate for it, and better to have it done and it behind me. I did, and at the same time i had an endoscopy. Fortunately, the procedures went really well, and im fine. I dont have to worry and wonder about it anymore, and I finally felt I'd found a caring doctor that I could trust to get through the process. Thank you, Dr Makhani. I will refer you to anyone who asks me if I have a great gastroenterologist!

I had a great experience during my recent visit to Dr. Makhani’s office. From the moment I walked in, the front desk staff was welcoming and efficient. I appreciated how organized the check-in process was, and I didn’t have to wait long before being called in.
Dr. Makhani was attentive, professional, and really took the time to listen to my concerns. They asked thoughtful questions, explained things clearly, and made sure I felt comfortable with the treatment plan. I never felt rushed, which is rare and refreshing these days.
The office was clean, modern, and well-maintained, and the nurse/assistant was also kind and helpful. Overall, it was a smooth, stress-free appointment. I would highly recommend Dr. Makhani to anyone looking for compassionate, thorough care.

I have to rate Dr. Makhani as one of the best doctors who has treated conditions that I have had. He takes the time to really comprehend the issues I have confronted. He follows up on my condition, contacting me by phone to inquire as to my condition, and
his office has an e-mail service, which allows me to inform his office of matters. He is one of the most respected persons in his field. I am indeed fortunate to have Dr. Makhani as my doctor.

Dr Makhani has great bedside manner!
I went in for a consultation and liked him. I told him i have white coat syndrome. He offered to take his white coat off if that would relax me a little. He didn't need to do that, but I thought so nice that he offered. I'm a skiddish patient, and not the
best with procedures, but he took his time
explaining things to me, and though im still always apprehensive, I really
appreciated it and think he would be a Dr
that would walk me through it if I needed
reassurance.

Smart. Good listener. Very personable. Takes his time. Aware of both Alternative and Western medicine options — which I love. Nurses are on the ball. Well-run office which is highly unusual. Excellent follow up. He calls personally which is unheard of these days!! I had a gastroenterologist that was in his late 70s and just phoning it in so this is a HUGE upgrade!! Very happy that my internist referred me to him.

Even though Dr. Makhani has many other patients I consider my myself "the favorite". He's down-to-earth and still possess the qualities of the Dr.'s portrayed in the series, "Little House on The Prairie". I truly believe if he had a horse and buggy he would make house calls.
