Excellent doctor, exceptional staff and the best front office staffing...I can't say enough about N.P. Ferraz⭐

Very fast,speedy service from the time you walk in the door until the time you leave!!! A lot more reasonable for time and better than going to kent hospital infusion center for my first time Skyrizi Infusions!!!
Every staff member is kind and works well as a team. Thank you for the wonderful care.
Staff was friendly and made me feel comfortable. I was taken in early for my procedure and didn’t have to wait. They took the time to explain the results clearly. The nurses and Dr. Decker were very friendly and efficient
I love Dr Newton. He's an awesome doctor. You can tell he cares about his patience. I'm comfortable with him. He makes sure you understand what is going on. I would recommend him to anyone. He's great!!
The Staniford Street staff are always kind and courteous, and are invested in not just the specialty care they provide, but in patient wellbeing as a whole. As someone who has lived with chronic illness their whole life, I count myself lucky to be a patient at their practice. Thank you everyone at University GI!
Have never met a more professional doctor PA NP in my life! Kind, considerate, compassionate they are definitely doing what they were meant to do in life! I would never see another G.I. again.
Very good once I got to see him. Took over a year of telephone tag with his office to schedule a colonoscopy. Have been trying to schedule an endoscopy for 3 months and they just won't answer phones. Next time i am in Providence, I am going to his office in person. HIs office office rates zero stars.
Great Doctor. Highly efficient, compassionate, friendly and caring.
Dr. Pianka is SO SO amazing, SO kind and generous with his time. He’s caring and truly, truly wants the best for you. Highly recommend if he is accepting patients!!!
Everyone here at University Gastroenterology is absolutely so nice and considerate people. I enjoy coming here despite all my tummy aches!!!

Terrible service they don't call you back I've been with them for years trying to get medication is impossible.
Dr. Chen is an extremely professional and compassionate GI doctor. He is very thorough and listens to his patients questions and concerns. He explains procedures in a reassuring way that allows his patients to feel less anxious. I highly recommend Dr. Chen! He's an expert in the gastrointestinal medical field.
