Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

I had a very positive experience with Dr. Astha Bhatt. The front desk staff was warm and welcoming, and Dr. Bhatt was attentive, kind, and professional. I did have to wait a bit to get an appointment, but it was absolutely worth it. There were no delays during the actual visit or the procedure. I felt heard and well taken care of.

A very sudden acute abdominal pain sent me to the ER where I was diagnosed with a bowel obstruction. Dr. Bhatt surgically removed it along with all surrounding necrotic tissue, and resected it. Dr. Bhatt is not only a highly competent and extremely skilled surgeon, but she is also a terrific doctor in terms her outstanding bedside manner. She listened attentively to everything I had to say and, in terms easily comprehensible to the layman, willingly responded to all my questions and concerns. She patiently explained my problem and all potential treatments directly to me as well as in a post-surgical phone call to my distraught wife. Later, during a very pleasant followup office visit, Dr. Bhatt removed not only the staples that kept my incision closed, but also a catheter that was inserted by others who left me without any post-discharge information or instructions on what to do about it. I can't speak highly enough about Dr. Bhatt and freely give her my highest recommendation.

Wonderful and Professional Doctor
This is a doctor I would highly recommend! My husband has some medical issues. We met her while my husband was in the hospital. She is compassionate, listens to her patients, and explains things thoroughly. What a breath of fresh air. She will tell you her concerns and explain in great detail without all the medical terminology so anyone could understand. She takes her time is and is very thorough. Don't go to any other Surgeon.....she by fair is the BEST! We didn't have trust in the last doctor, and she put our mind at ease and we felt assured with her expertise.

Advanced robotic and laparoscopic minimally
The encounter was made as comfortable as possible by Dr. Bhatt. She treats her patients and my husband, who was with me, in such a kind manner. She made sure to address all of my inquiries and provide me with a thorough appointment during which he explained my diagnosis alternatives. I would suggest him to my family members. One of Broward County, Florida's top colon and rectal surgeons. I heartily endorse her to all of my friends and relatives. Advanced robotic and laparoscopic minimally invasive procedures are the areas of expertise for board-certified general and colorectal surgeon Dr. Astha Bhatt.

Best Colorectal Cancer Treatment
Astha Bhatt, MD is a Colorectal Surgeon and Board-certified General surgeon. AMAZING, TOP quality, and even beyond elite; but, her kindness is what stands out the most. Dr. Bhatt listens; she is very clear about her purpose of giving her patients the greatest possible outcome and providing quality medical care. She performed my colon cancer surgery, and I would suggest her as a surgeon to everyone I've spoken with. If I ever needed a colon and rectal surgeon, Dr. Bhatt would be my first choice. She is an expert Surgeon in Colorectal Cancer Treatment. Best Care provided. The Staff at the clinic in Pompano Beach office is great!

I had the privilege of being treated by Dr. Astha Bhatt for Diverticulitis, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From the very first consultation, Dr. Bhatt demonstrated an unparalleled level of expertise and compassion. She took the time to explain my condition thoroughly, including what Diverticulitis entails, the treatment options, and the lifestyle changes that could aid in my recovery.Her approach was both patient-centered and highly professional. Throughout the treatment, she remained attentive to my concerns, ensuring that every question was answered clearly. The personalized care I received made me feel confident and supported during what could have been a very stressful time.What truly sets Dr. Bhatt apart is her holistic approach to managing Diverticulitis. She not only addressed the immediate symptoms but also provided long-term strategies to prevent future flare-ups. Her dedication to my well-being went above and beyond, and I am now symptom-free and better informed

Fantastic proctologist and colorectal surgeon in Broward County. I go see Dr. Bhatt. Dr. Bhatt is the best, in my opinion! Working with Dr. Astha Bhattacharya was a breeze in every way, from her bedside manner to her education over the whole pre- and post-operative process! I feel very privileged to be looked after by her and her coworkers. She is an authority on every aspect of rectal and colon health.

I can state that the best colon and rectal surgeon, Dr. Astha Bhatt, and her team did an amazing job with me after a few months of serious bowel surgery and a full and quick recovery. After the procedure, I was able to walk unaided and resume my regular diet a few hours later. After the surgery, I was able to resume mild physical exercise after two weeks. I returned to my regular routine and resumed my outdoor sports after six weeks. At last, three months later, the scars were hardly noticeable. All I can say is that I will always be appreciative.
