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.

he makes appointments with his patients and never keep him until you’re in his office. He makes them on the phone, but he forgets all about you because you’re not in his office. I do not call that a very good position.

Prompt, efficient, knowledgeable, and personable
Dr. Hooks promptly accepted my husband's referral for an EUS after a concerning incidental find on a CT for another condition. He quickly scheduled and performed the EUS and biopsy. He immediately informed us of his findings, quelling our anxiety. Grateful!

Personable, professional and knowledgeable. Dr. Hooks inspires confidence and when you follow his directions, you realize why. He really wants to help you improve. I listened and followed his instructions and was well much more quickly than I expected. Then he was nice enough to do a colonoscopy on me, and I don't remember a thing about it! Service that made me smile.

Wonderful Doctor!
I have to say it is rare these days to find a doctor who spends time with you. Explains my issues and answers my questions. I am so happy with him. He has been my gastrointestinal doctor for 6 years. He is a gem and his office staff from front desk to nurses, like April, are top notch!

In 2013 I had an esophageal procedure and when it was, again necessary, the previous physician had retired and Dr. Hooks was recommended. Prior to the procedure, he reviewed my records and he asked if what the cause might be for the esophageal stricture and way to prevent a future problem had been discussed by the other doctor. It had not and he proceeded w/an explanation of a probable cause and a prescription ; the problem has not recurred. Also-when he says he'll call w/a result, he does it!!
