Your trust is our top concern.

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

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

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.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Excellent care
Follow-up appointments with Dr. Gluskin are always well-focused, based upon what has been learned in the most recent procedure or test. My understanding of my condition and ability to work with it effectively has grown with each follow-up visit, and this one was no exception. I am very appreciative.

Dr. Gluskin and his team are pleasant, extremely thorough, and very professional. I was confident in the care every step of the way. They even took me in EARLY and finished my procedure far sooner than expected (hiw often does THAT happen?

Great experience
Referred for 10 year colonoscopy by pcp. One call, appt date set, prescription called in. They get your medical records, no hour long forms to fill in! Was raining am of appt, as we live in city , no car can be difficult getting cabs early am post Covid , we were an hour early for appt. So organized. Everyone so kind reassuring. Was home 45 min after original appt time! Had 3 biopsies taken, called the next week with all great see you in 10 more years! WAS SO DIFFERENT FROM MY FIRST EXPERIENCE!! Don’t hesitate!

Gluskin Review (Not good)
I made an appointment for the 2/6 at 445p, I confirmed online AND on the phone when I was called on 1/31. I arrived at the clinic at 430p on 2/6 only to find the office closed. NO ONE called to cancel and no email was sent to me to cancel. I called off work and drove 25+ miles to go to this appointment that was scheduled months prior only to show up and have the office closed. The office closed at 5pm, why schedule someone when you all decide to duck early for the day? UNPROFESSIONAL AND HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. Really upsetting because of the inconvenience of driving, missing work, and not seeing a doctor when it's highly needed

The best gastroenterologist in the Midwest.
I think I’m a good consumer of healthcare. I do you plenty of research in advance when I am going to see a physician. Such was the case when I began to see Dr. Gluskin several years ago. His his skill and knowledge of medicine is impressive as well as his sincerity. Unlike many doctors, he takes the time to make sure you understand his findings and recommended treatment options. I believe him to be an excellent diagnostician and practitioner and recommend him fully and without hesitation if you want the very best care available.

First colonoscopy was a positive experience
My primary care physician referred me to Dr. Gluskin. I was able to get an appointment in a reasonable amount of time, the office staff provided helpful instructions to prepare for the procedure, and on the day of the procedure, Dr. Gluskin and the nursing team were kind, efficient, and professional throughout.

Clear instructions, attentive staff, efficient procedure. Never felt discomfort, the procedure was done quickly and Dr. Gluskin provided a detailed assessment of findings and plan of action. Debunked all myths out there about traditional colonoscopy. Highly recommended.

Ms.
7 Dr. Gluskin suggested what may be causing my abdominal pain and bloating of many months. It had an unusual cause I had not known possible. Other doctors I had seen had not been able to determine the cause. It turned out that Dr. Gluskin was correct and it was quickly remedied to my immense relief. Words cannot express the importance of finding a physician of this fine gentleman's caliber.
