Amazing physician, teacher, and man! Grateful for his talent Top notch! A game! Colonoscopy with no sedation - gentle, thorough, efficient Highly recommend!

Dr. Karnes was extremely thorough and knowledgeable. Because of this, he was able to correctly diagnose me with Celiac Disease at a young age. That, in turn, helped many of my older family members get properly diagnosed who had other physicians. I am convinced that a decade later, I wouldnt have known I had Celiacs if it wasnt for Dr. Karnes thoughtful approach to patient care.

Dr Karnes did my endoscopy and colonoscopy recently because I was having issues. He is the nicest, kindest person. He came and reassured me before the procedures and everything went smoothly. His office staff always responds to questions right away too. Hes a pleasure to work with.

WOW! Oh Cmon!? Anyone that gives this doctor less than 4 Stars on a BAD DAY is just crabby and taking it out on someone undeserving of such crabbiness. I went there to have my first exploratory test all men of a certain age dread! In fact my really good primary care doctor Ive had forever didnt convince me as well as Dr. Karnes that not only did it make sense, but there was much less to be concerned with than people make out of it. Being a bit of a Physician Connoisseur having been treated by doctors in over 20 countries (somehow, Ive made it through 53 other countries without the need for a doctor! :) from shaman and witch doctors to the top of their field Asian, European and American doctors, Dr. Karnes is everything you could want or expect from a doctor. Timely Polite Very Well Informed and spends the time to explain any details Proactive and possessing the empiric abilities of a doctor well beyond his specialty area understanding how it all relates to one another. Which is hard to come by in American medicine these days. Having a calm unrushed persona in a world where doctors have to see dozens of patients each day is a feat in itself and makes for a great wellrounded patient experience! Finding a doctor more focused on healing and patient care is an increasingly rare thing in America. The office staff were wonderful too! First time in a decade a phlebotomist took my blood without leaving the slightest of bruises...NONE! ZERO! THATS WORTH 5 STARS ALONE!

He wasnt able to help me after two years of attempted treatment. He ignored heavy side effects from medication he prescribed, and ignored me when I needed him to approve my short term disability after my work refused to let me return due to my prolonged illness.

And yet another MD who spends 10 minutes with you and has his medical student ask all the questions.  With all of the advances in digestive medicine I am truly shocked that all he had to offer was samples of a pharmaceutical product and a test that I have already done hundreds of times.

Dr. Karnes is excellent at diagnosing the problem/s. He is able think outside of GI issues which is unique for a specialist. His clinical skills are outstanding and he is Very gentle. Dr. K has a great bedside manner and very caring. I am never embarrassed or uncomfortable with any of the procedures I have had or discussing any problems with him. He is the one you want on your health team.

Dr. Karnes is an outstanding GI doctor. His strength is diagnosing problem/s because he thinks about other possibilities outside of gastro intestinal problems. This is very unique for a specialist. His clinical skills are awesome and he is Very gentle. Great bedside manner too. I have never been embarassed or uncomfortable with any of the procedures that he has done. He is very easy to talk to as well. This in one doc you want on your team.  5 STARS.  *****   :)

Simply horrifying! Would recommend Karens to my worst enemy. No time spent with me post procedure. Over all the visit was a nightmare!

Dr Karnes is the kindest and most patient physician Ive ever encountered.

Dr. Karnes Actively listens to you. i had to have an EGD and a Dilation proceedure without sedation and I was able to watch the proceedures on a large, color, computer screen. Dr. Karnes explained what he was doing and the anatomy of the esophagus, small bowel, and stomach. When the procedures were finished, my first 4 words were, That was too cool. All the staff employees I have met, have been top notch also. Very caring

Dr Karnes is a kind and caring man. He is very easy going and gives you his full attention. Although Im still without a diagnosis he certainly has tried and is very personable. He returns phone calls and has a gentle bedside manner. Mayo Clinic trained hes quite knowledgable.
