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.

Dr. Straub is an excellent & skilled physician having administered all my colonoscopies for close to 25yrs. He & attending staff have always been very professional. Dr. Straub readily answers questions & symptom concerns; he leaves you feeling confident that his diagnosis & recommendations are always intended with the best patient outcome in mind! I would not hesitate to seek his advice & care for any issue requiring the expertise of a Gastroenterologist.

Dr. Straub is an excellent physician! He has correctly diagnosed me in the past. He is thorough in colonoscopy and endoscopy procedures! I trust him and wouldn’t have anyone else do those procedures on me. He was suggested to me by my family doctor, Dr. Geraci, who has always referred me to the best of the best!!!!!! Dr. Straub also treats my husband. Well feel secure and am thankful for Dr. Straub to meet our Gastroenterology needs.

Dr Straub is awesome! His assistant was very rude to me so im rating my overall experience at the Northshore office in westlake ohio a 3. She was rude on the phone and In the office. She did not care to explain anything and was very condescending. If He were not so good I would not go back!

I would have no idea where to begin to describe Dr Straub. He is not only a fantastically intelligent and attentive doctor, he is also a kind and compassionate human being. He spent a great deal of time with my husband and myself- putting our minds at ease during a very difficult time. His empathy for what our family was going through was extraordinary. I will recommend Dr Straub to any friend or family member who may need his expertise.

Dr. Straub is a wonderful doctor who listens to his patients and then sets a plan in motion. My husband was very ill and at the time Doctor Straub had relocated to Toledo. If I could have gotten my husband to Toledo at the time, I would have gladly relocated for him to take care of my husband. He is patient, kind and understanding.
