William J. Ravich's Online Review Report Card

I was sent for a motility study and I thought it was going to be done by a doctor. The test was done by a nurse and this doctor only interpreted the results. His diagnosis had me thinking that if I ate any solid foods, I might choke. His diagnosis is not something that I have but could “possibly” occur at some obscure point in the future. After getting a second opinion, I’ve been advised that this doctor’s speculations are not supported by the test results. I would not recommend anyone to this provider.

I was sent to Johns Hopkins when the Dr in my area could no longer help me in fear he would damage my esophagus. Dr. Ravich took my case. He has been a God send! I would highly recommend him, best gastroenterologist around! Straight forward and tells it like it is. I truly appreciate it!

This self-proclaimed world authority is the worst. He perforated my wife's esophagus and when she got gravely ill failed to return our call. Was extremely rude and dismissive prior to procedure. She wishes she had trusted her original instinct to walk out of the office

I have been a patient of Dr. Ravich for about eight years and have found himto be a keen diagnostician, with the ability to listen carefully and to explainissues very clearly. It is my pleasure to recommend him for G.I. issues,especially those relating to the esophagus.

I have been going to Dr Ravich for several years. Both he and his staff are all that you could want in every respect. Professional, competent, pleasant,attentive.

Best GI doc out there! I've been seeing Dr. Ravich for years and love him. He's very thorough and knowledgeable. Staff is wonderful too!

Dr Ravich is a lifesaver! No one in the areas that I live could help me. I was constantly nauseated, vomiting, and in alot of pain. Furthermore , I had extreme swelling in my abdomen. One specialist at a highly recommended hospital suggested that I was a forty year old female and on the overweight side and should see a pain clinic to learn to deal with it. In the meantime my problem got so bad I was vomiting blood. I was sent to Dr Ravich by a wonderful allergist in our area. After my first very thorough appointment, I left with no answer but a promise of a call. Within two hors I received my first call with two more calls the same day. The doctor himself called and spoke with me about his plans for treatment. All the test and procedures were scheduled at a convenient place for me and I'm thrilled to say that in spite of some occasional relapses I feel better than I have felt in years. I feel that God sent me to Dr Ravich and I will always be grateful

He is the best. I recommend him to everyone. My local doctors couldn't find out what was causing my constant vomiting and diarehha for over a year. Within two visits, he found the problem and recommended the medication that stopped it for the last eight years.

Incredibly smart. Not especially warm, but very caring about wanting patients to get excellent care. The best gastroenterologist I've ever seen. Highly recommended for problems that have challenged other doctors.

Was very rude and had no time to listen to the problems that my daughter was having. Said he would take five days to review any test that were done. Very frustrating and was of no help at all.
