David E. Wexler's Online Review Report Card

Have a lot of experience with only one look at you, he will ask you some questions he already knows what is the problem. I highly recommend him.

Very unpleasant and disappointing experience. I saw Dr Wexler's associate Dr Shensel. My appointment was at 12:30 but I wasn't seen until 2pm. After waiting that long, he saw me for less than 10 minutes. He talked over me, dismissed some of my complaints and seemed as if he was in a hurry to get me out despite the fact that I waited patiently for over an hour to see him. He recommended a procedure that requires anesthesia but they did not explain their billing process as it pertains to other providers that they contract with so it was unclear if their anesthesiologist was in network with my insurance. Independent contractors such as anesthesiologists are allowed to bill separately from the treating physician so I like to do my due diligence because out of network benefits through my insurance are astronomical and I don't want any surprises. When I asked questions about that I was told that the office manager would call me. This was 2 weeks ago and I never got a call. The fact that they dismiss a patient's concerns, leave a patient uninformed, fail to disclose pertinent information and don't return phone calls tells you all you need to know about their practice. If I can't count on them for simple things such as billing info, then why should I entrust them with my health and care? Smh. Needless to say I am DONE with them and will not be returning. 🙄👎

Dr. Wexler was not very helpful. After my initial diagnosis I followed up because my symptoms had not subsided. He was rude and implied that my issue was because I was not following his instructions. After getting a second opinion from Dr. Kevin Holzman out of Livingston and receiving a less outdated solution I am much better. Shout out to the nurses and receptionists at Dr. Wexler's office because they are wonderful.

Love him, amazing service and prevented a major future problem at the age of 32

I’m a 10 year patient of Dr Wexler, He saved my life on 12/3/2010 at RW Rahway due to a ruptured sarcoma gastric tumor.. Dr Wexler has continued monitoring Me till this day with required Endoscopies, very much needed medical treatments, medicines and advice. I completely, wholeheartedly trust and have “highly” spoken to family, friends about him. He is exceptional, highly recommended . Thank You ...

I started seeing Dr. Wexler in the early 90's when I was in my mid 20's. I was there with my husband who was having a stomach issue. When I mentioned to Dr. Wexler that I had a VERY rare genetic GI disease, he took great interest and told me to stop back in his office in 3 days, he'd have something for me. (I was not the patient). I returned 3 days later and he had a stack of papers about my very rare disease. Research had only recently been done and I didn't have the latest information. Well, now I did. It was grave. I'd need a colonoscopy and endoscopy (and a bunch of other tests) EVERY OTHER YEAR for the rest of my life. I had already had some colonoscopies years earlier to diagnose my condition and of course no one likes them. To find out I'd be needing one every other year was upsetting, but as Dr. Wexler pointed out - it would be life saving. Our relationship began. He coordinated all my tests since then, giving me the results straight. There were always polyps removed. He'd always have me call him for the pathology report and he didn't sugar coat. He always gives well-thought out answers. A few years after I had twin sons and both inherited this GI disease. He began seeing them for it when they turned 5. They are now in their early 20's and he's done all the scopes etc. Dr. Wexler didn't just care about the GI aspect of my disease (it causes you to develop cancer in the breasts, pancreas, female organs, thyroid, and more). He made sure I had all my organs checked and kept everything coordinated. When I had to have my prophylactic hysterectomy at 45 I was sure he was on board, approving of the doctor and keeping the records. When I needed my gallbladder out he attended the surgery as a favor to me, though he wasn't required to (the surgeon was). Any major medical issues that come up in my life - I involve Dr. Wexler. I want his expert opinion on everything. I couldn't have asked for a better, more caring, more knowledgeable doctor who has gone WAY above his duty to save a life. Without him knowing about my rare disease, I would be dead by now. Without all the preventative testing he does, I surely would have suffered from cancer by now. If it wasn't for him caring enough to convince me to enter this life of awful tests, I wouldn't be here to write this. He keeps current on the research and informs me always. He's always pleasant, thorough, returns calls (but very late at night) and never rushes you. The staff is friendly. Liza has been there since the beginning and is still there - that's a long time for an Office Manager. To date Dr. Wexler has done at least 16 colonoscopies/endoscopes on me. He is always caring and puts you at ease. I could go on and on. You won't find a better GI doctor in the area. When I see him for an issue, I never go to another doctor for a second opinion - rather, when I see another doctor for an issue, I ask Dr. Wexler his opinion. When he doesn't know something he will refer you to the doctor/specialist that he thinks is best. REMEMBER - YOU are a big part of how your visit turns out. Ask the important questions, be polite, be patient, and follow the doctor's advice. You are your best health care advocate. You have 1 body - treat it right and follow the doctor's advice.

Dr. Weaker is a very compassionate, caring physician who is responsive and treats his patients as though they really matter. It is a pleasure dealing with him and his staff.

my parents went in for their procedure with Dr. Wexler only to find out from their primary doctor information that he never shared with after the procedure which they inquired about.

Dr Wexler has been my gastroenterologist for many years. He has taken good care of me. I trust his decisions and advice.

Very disappointed with him! Went with my husband to have the colonoscopy performed and no information shared to us by Dr. Wexler. Met with our primary HCP during our physical and he informed us what was done. We are looking for another doctor and will never return to him.
