I love Dr.Marks , I chose him as my GI doctor after my first visit with him. My daughter also like Dr. Marks. She is my contact person when I have a colonoscopy. My last 2 visit , I couldn't see him...I was told I could see his NP. I did see her, She was very nice. I had a test, it took over a week after calling asking for my results. I finally called the diagnostic center and ask them if they could mail me a copy of my results...In the meantime Dr. Marks NP called with results. I asked her a question , she gave me an answer. The next day , my results came in the mail....The question I asked and the answer the NP gave me, was not the same results as on the copy that was mailed to me...After that , I decided not to see the N P again!. That ERROR could have cause future problems for me....I still couldn't see Dr. Mark's. The next visit I saw another NP .. I had no problems with her nor the first one, other than that 1 mistake, they both were nice. I had to have an endoscopy and a colonoscopy. Dr Marks did both. He wanted to see me 6 weeks later or months I can't quite remember which it was. When I scheduled my return visit ,I expressed the fact , I wanted to see Dr. Marks..I was told he didn't see pts. every day. It was a distance date (a month or so)she said, Dr. Marks can see you on this date and time! Or you can see the NP sooner if you need to! I said no, the date and time you gave me to see Dr. Marks was fine I'll take it. The day before my appointment I called to verify my appointment time. I'm glad I did. I was told that appointment had be canceled! I asked who canceled it, iI didn't! She the asked , did no one call you?.. NO!! I was then told if I really needed to come in , I could see the NP because Dr. Marks really don't see patients anymore. He only does procedures!! I don't have a problem with seeing the NP every now & then. I know the doctors can have too many pts. and may need help..BUT, I had a procedure done that was alarming to me! I had questions. I was only given papers with pictures! I didn't know what I was looking at. The NP didn't do my procedures! I needed to talk with Dr. Marks! When I chose My doctors, it's because I like them and I trust them! I didn't want to put this on here. I couldn't get in touch with him, I don't do the portal. I needed to ask Dr. Marks questions about my procedures HE performed on me! I'm so sad ,All this happened late later part of 2023, and I still have not found me a new GI doctor. I've got to ask around , check reviews etc! I HATE THIS HAPPENED TO ME AND DR. MARKS! I liked him and trusted him and That's hard to find?? I did an earlier review raving the goodness of Dr. Marks 7 years later,I'm looking for another GI doctor. I even posted on Facebook about Dr. Marks made letting everyone know "If anyone need a GI doctor Dr. Marks is the one! I strongly recommend him.
