I had the worst experience of scheduling an appointment at this place. I was referred for an MD and my appointment was scheduled for May 19 but now when I called today to confirm, I was told that my appointment was scheduled with one of her PAs. Why? Why do you change things on your own? When I asked to reschedule, I was put on hold and then the person just vanished. Also, it was close to 5pm. That is there closing time. Why do you want to employ such cheap tactics in order to avoid dealing with people on the phone? You could have simply asked to call tomorrow.

What an amazing Doctor and staff. Dr.Shepard and his staff are so professional, caring and knowledgeable. They are great at what they do. I had my first colonoscopy. From the time I checked in until it was all over the staff was very tentative to my care. The staff explained everything from A to Z. I was so nervous they made me feel like family, they reassured me, made me laugh and comfort me. Dr. Shepard talked to me before the procedure and afterwards as well. Then after the procedure one of his staff members walked me to the care holding on to me to make sure I didn't fall and get to the car safely. I wish I could give you more than 5 stars. Thank you for the gentle care.

Horrible service! Super rude workers. I was trying to get an appointment then the woman on phone was super rude to me. I understand I’m not a native English speaker, but she was super impatient and used improper language to me.

The lady at the check in desk was friendly. The nurses were friendly. The doctor was friendly. However the billing/scheduling department is rude. They don't care if your sick or your financial background. They need to show more empathy. Also I was told to come back in 8 weeks, called and there is zero availability until next year. So I'm unable to to come back in 8 weeks. More like 15 weeks. They doctor/nurses need to know the schedule calendars so they aren't promising things to patients. Ridiculous

Went on 10-6-23 for a colonoscopy consultation and 10-17-23 for the procedure, and i can say that Dr,Person and the staff at Athens Gastroenterology and Endoscopy are the kindest and most professional people that you would want to have for your procedure, I highly recommend them and I give them 5 stars! Thank you for your kindness and professionalism during my tenure, 😁👍
