Patient Experience
Here’s what real UES patients have shared about their experience with our doctors and staff.
This office was well run, clean, and Dr. Park kind and gently humorous. I feel very comfortable going here. City MD made me the appointment here after contracting a stomach bug, and I am going to switch to Dr. Park as my GI. Thank you!
So nice and quick to see me - took the time to really discuss symptoms and solutions (didn’t just get me in and out) and was available for follow-up immediately.
Everyone so nice and attentive from the staff to the Doctor.
Dr . Park is very kind and know exactly what is best treatment for patient.
Very good doctor, knowledgeable and treated me with care. Park listens to concerns, and always lets you speak and getting your concerns out.
Dr Park is so informative , patient and caring! The office is well organized and the staff are friendly and fun!
Great service from start to finish from Faith when I walked to meeting with Dr. Park. Great care and clear communication on next steps.
UPDATE: The office reached out to me after my feedback and apologized for the situation. I appreciate that they took my concerns seriously and are trying to improve things for future patients. They also sent me a gift card as a gesture of goodwill. I wanted to acknowledge their response and the effort they made to make things right.

Very frustrating experience. I booked an appointment with Dr. Park, and the first time they canceled it due to a “double booking.” So I booked another appointment for the following week, as it was the earliest available slot. I also booked an appointment with another doctor in the same network for the next day because I needed to be seen sooner, and the office confirmed that appointment and sent me a confirmation email. A few hours later, someone called saying I needed to pay a deposit and that my appointment was actually not confirmed. I couldn’t talk at that moment, and when I said so, he simply hung up and never called back. Later that evening, both of my appointments, including the one with Dr. Park the following week, were canceled without any proper explanation. Very unprofessional and disorganized communication. If a deposit is required to confirm an appointment, this should be clearly communicated during booking and before sending a confirmation.
I cannot say enough great things about Dr. Park. The first gastroenterologist who listened, read my history and gave a proper diagnosis.
Such a nice doctor! Had a great experience!
I had a great experience with Connie, she listened to my symptoms and was very proactive in my care. I appreciated her straightforward approach and bedside manner.
Only feedback is for the billing department. I took an at home breath test and had to pay copay, but was told I would be credited the investment when I returned the test to the office. I have not received compensation after serval follow ups. If you are a new patient - do not allow them to steal your money.
Dr. Park was amazing, it was my first time visiting this office today. Honestly I can say Dr. Park listened to all of the symptoms I was having, followed up with discovery questions and did testing. She made me feel seen and heard and didn’t opt to just prescribe me over the counter Metamucil or miralax! She is digging deeper to find the cause of my gut issues and I am appreciative of her attentiveness, knowledge and care. Also, Dr. Park assistants were so nice, spoke and greeted me with a smile and they were very gentle. The office space was so nice and clean very modern aesthetic. If you want to be feel seen and heard I recommend visiting Dr. Park and her practice.
Dr. Park is the best!
Dr. Park was very kind and attentive. It was my first appointment and I felt at ease with her calm demeanor. The staff was also very professional and kind.
Dr. Park was punctual, professional and answered all of my questions and addressed my concerns.
Love Dr Park!
Dr. Park was awesome. My colonoscopy went smoothly. She explained everything before and after in. detail. She answered all my questions and gave me a good referral for next steps. She listened and took my concerns seriously and gave me peace of mind. Also great office staff.
Dr. Park is incredibly thorough, compassionate, and attentive. She takes the time to truly listen What impressed me most is that she not only listens carefully but also works diligently to find practical solutions and develop a clear plan of care. She combines medical expertise with genuine kindness, which is a rare and valuable combination.
Dr. Connie Park was great :) Really helped me
I felt truly heard by Dr. Park. I have never had a specialist meet with me for 40 minutes, listen to my concerns, and suggest actionable next steps. Dr. Park was very thorough when explaining options and risks. She did not dismiss me because of my age, gender, or history of mental health conditions as other doctors have.
I am so grateful to have found a provider who really cares about her patients.
Great doctor- totally professional, excellent listener and makes you feel comfortable during an uncomfortable time. Totally recommend.
Great experience, talked through everything about what to expect, made me feel very comfortable about everything!
I had a great first visit with Dr. Park and her team. From the moment I arrived, the staff was kind, welcoming, and professional, which immediately made me feel comfortable. Dr. Park has an excellent bedside manner — she took the time to truly listen to my concerns, answer my questions, and make me feel heard. I appreciated how thorough and thoughtful she was in creating a clear course of action to help diagnose my issue. I left feeling confident that I was in good hands and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and attentive doctor.
It is always a pleasure to speak with Doctor Park. She is very kind and professional. She listens to my questions and concerns. After being diagnosed with Celiac disease around 8 years ago, I saw multiple Gastroenterologists looking for guidance but ended up feeling confused, but after a colleague suggested Dr. Park, I realized I found the right one for me. I never understood my condition as well until I met her. She is amazing and I’ve been seeing her for over 3 years now.
Seen in a timely manner. Front desk staff are friendly and professional. Dr. Park is lovely and has great bedside manner, I felt she was really listening to all my concerns. I didn’t feel rushed at all. Great location, too! Dr. Park is on Park Ave 😀 Highly recommended!!! 👍 👍
Dr. Park listened carefully, answered all of my questions and took her time to describe her plan
Dr. Connie was a breath of fresh air. I have been dealing with a plethora of health issues over the course of 5 years and therefore dealing with many doctors. I can confidently say Dr. Connie was one of the most empathetic doctors I have dealt with who listened to me the whole time without interrupting. She clearly knows what she is talking about and is very experienced. Highly highly recommend.
Great service, knowledgeable It's. Very helpful! Would recommend them
During this appointment I felt seen and believed- which was huge considering my previous experience into support. I’m grateful for the ways my questions were answered, concerns were listened too, and solutions to try were offered.
Dr. Park is an exceptional gastroenterologist. She listened to me patiently and took the time to address all of my concerns. That level of care is very important to me, and it’s rare to find a doctor like her. She truly cares about her patients, and it shows not only in her thorough examinations but also in her kind and compassionate manner.
Best Doctor I ever come across. Dr. Park listens intensionally to address your concerns and find solutions. I found her through google searches, read the reviews and indeed it did not disappoint. She gets to the root of cause and takes from that way up.
Dr Park is friendly, patient, compassionate, and highly educated in IBS issues. The waiting time was minimal. Courteous staff, a nice plus.😊😊😊
Wonderful experience overall. The doctor as well as the staff are very helpful and friendly. I did not have to wait and all my concerns and questions were answered.
Dr. Connie Park is wonderful. after a horrible experience with another GI doctor, i came to Dr. Park and refused to change again (even after relocating work). i still make the effort to come all the way to her office. i feel heard by Dr. Park. She really listens and cares about her patient & that’s why i continue coming back to her. We need more doctors like her in the field. Thank you for everything you do!
Dr. Park was very compassionate, empathetic and knowledgeable. She is a wonderful physician and a great example of what every doctor should strive to be!
Dr. Park is so helpful and informative. The front desk check in process was easy and the staff were welcoming. I was in and out the office within 45 minutes as a new patient.
Dr park was patient and caring and funny. I told her I'm afraid of being under and she understood and gave me options for pain management. A pleasant experience to chat with her.
After years of searching for answers, Dr.Connie Park was able to give me the testing and answers I needed. She's a great doctor and I highly recommend her.
Dr. Park goes above and beyond as her patient care, bedside manner and ease of explanation were superb during my visit. She made me feel comfortable and most of all heard.
