Horrendous experience. Had procedure done to rule out a specific illness and biopsies were not done for that. He stated that the esophagus looked normal but studies show up to 20% of people have normal looking esophagus and it should still be biopsied. Therefore, this doctor doesn’t keep up to date on current guidelines. Very unfortunate as this affects other patients looking for help and answers.

Was also supposed to get pre-procedure meds for a medical condition. My specialist sent protocol to Dr. Byrne’s office and I was not given the meds. I am now very sick. his office had the med orders. If he would have taken 30 seconds to call his nurse and check, he would have known. He just dodn’t care.

I feel blown off and like he was rushed and did not care. Made report with hospital and the end result was them blaming it all on his staff. Of course, nothing was his fault.

The minute I walked thru the door there was a smile and pleasant greeting for us. We only had to wait about 10 minutes. Dr Byrne's nurse was very professional and friendly and Dr Byrne was very helpful and knowledgeable. I went away feeling confident that I was in good hands.

Absolutely caring staff and doctor. Sometimes its easy to be crabby and cynical when someone you care about is critical, but this staff and doctor are exceptional & professional.

This physician has never been helpful except for getting us a referral to someone who was when we asked for it. Started procedure and left room and never came back, leaving nurses to finish procedure. Patient on chronic dialysis 4 days later due to complications from this procedure.

Patient had been losing strength and weight for months, was put off for another month or two. Meanwhile, correct Dx was performed at another facility. Had the patient waited, probably would have died.
