Dr. Dean Palmer, MD

The Nurse practiser makes diagnoses just by what you say without doing any kind of testing. The staff is not looking out for your best interests. And it's all about the money not you

Dr Palmer is an expert in his field. He speaks to his patients after each procedure. The staff is the Pre- Op is very competent as well as comforting This is my 3rd colonoscopy with Dr Palmer and I am completely content with his expertise in his field and the care that I received from him There NEEDS to still be additional research in the pre work that needs to be done before a colonoscopy. The weakness and possible dehydration is something that a patient shouldn’t have to deal with before the actual procedure

Met Doctor Palmer over 15 years ago as my Father-in-law doctor at memorial regional hospital. Impressed by his knowledge, patient, compassion we made him our family doctor. We have been very happy under his care. As my acid reflex is progressing and need more attention, I trust Dr. Dean Palmer to guid me till I achieve fully recover.

Disclaimer: This rating is for the staff and not the doctor. The reason I'm putting this review is because I never got a chance to see the doctor. I called about being a new patient and needed an initial routine colonoscopy screening. The girl who answered the phone said that I would be seen first by one of the doctor's 2 nurse practitioners. They would walk me through the procedure and what's required and then I would be scheduled to see the doctor for the procedure next. I left my contact information and was told one of the NP would see me. Well, it's been several days now and still no one has reached out to me. Long story short, I'll be looking for a different gastroenterologist. Too bad, cause this doctor has pretty good ratings overall. Unfortunately, I never got a chance to experience his service. Recommend staff get a good talking to.

My first visit with Dr. palmer’s office I waited 90 minutes in the lobby before being taken in to see a nurse. She was very apologetic and did a really good job. In fact the staff is all very nice so I went back for a follow up. This time after waiting 70 minutes in the lobby I could not wait any longer and as politely as possible told the staff I was leaving. A patient’s time is valuable as well. It was very inconsiderate and unprofessional. I won’t be back.

I had gone to 5 different doctors over 3 years trying to figure out what was wrong with me. Dr. Palmer was the only one who was able to figure that I had a rare hereditary disease and for that I'll be forever grateful.

Easy to talk to. Very helpful.

Dr Palmer was and is amazing! So knowledgeable, Poilt, sensitive and of course professional... and his staff are amazing! Andy is SO nice she went way and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed and that the process was easy and seamless!

This gastro is the vest

Dr. Palmer is a caring and highly competent Gastroenterologist. He has closely and carefully monitored my health, and my family’s, for more than 10 years. Dr. Palmer has found and resolved problems that were otherwise life-threatening more than once. His office and medical staff are professional and considerate, efficient to return calls and provide results. I highly recommend Dr. Dean Palmer as your gastroenterologist physician.

The best doctor along with the best staff ever. Love them all. Very caring crew

Excellent physician however his staff is out to destroy his practice. They make it impossible for patients to make appointments. Left messages daily for 2 weeks requesting appointment from Debbie. Then needed script faxed to hospital for barium enema, Memorial hospital called his office 15 times requesting script. 8 faxes were sent, each missing doctors name, patients name, or diagnosis. After 2.5 hours, received correct fax but too late for Radiologist to do study. Won't be back!

The best Dr I have ever met very helpful and knowledgeable and professional that also goes with the staff.

Dr. Palmer is incredibly intelligent, professional and kind. I met with Dr. Palmer regarding wounds on my legs that could not be healed. The wound center told me my wounds could have an underlying GI problem and seeing a specialist might help my wounds. A friend at work recommended Dr. Palmer as "the best" and she is correct. Dr. Palmer was thorough on my first visit and knowledgeable about the condition that the wound care thought I might have. I highly recommend Dr. Palmer.

Excellent Doctor explains everything.
