DR KATE NAPTHALI REVIEWS

Dr Napthali is an amazing specialist! I was feeling lost with all my Gastro problems until I was referred to Dr Kate Napthali She does my colonoscopy with ease and make it an anxiety free experience! Dr Napthali has been working around the clock trying to get me the best help possible in the Hunter area! The public hospital emergency departments turned me away with pain killers for my haemorroids and internal bleeding, but Dr Napthali is doing her best to get me seen to ASAP! The reception/office staff are also the best assistants to the specialists! I am forever grateful to Dr Napthali and Beechnut Medical for taking extra attention and care of me out of their own time! These are the specialists you need on your team.

Dr.Napthali is friendly, kind and hilarious. She makes you feel completely at ease talking about medical issues and takes the time to makes sure you really understand what is happening. Highly recommend her.

Dr Philcox and Dr Chen are very good at what they do. Everything from surgery to taking a personal view with their patients and helping them to achieve maximum wellness both physically and mentally. I highly recommend Hunter Gastroenterology for those times when you need the best help available.

I had tha chance to be seen by Dr Philcox and I have found him extremely knowledgeable and thorough. The clinic is also a very nice environment.
