Dr Gaston has proven twice to address my issues with my gut and found the correct treatment. I went to another GI closer to my home me and had an upper/lower and failed diagnosis and treatment with no direction in what should be done for my problem . I went back to Dr Gaston and he found my problem and we are on the road to the treatment needed. Thank you for giving me direction and hope for relief

I had a colonoscopy and Dr. Gaston and his staff were very professional. Dr. Gaston made me feel comfortable before the procedure and the procedure was quick. I highly recommend Dr Gaston for your colonoscopy and any digestive issues.

This is a great office. I was referred to them by Colonoscopy Direct. The receptionist was polite and friendly. Dr. Gaston is very knowledgeable and extremely professional. When I had my procedure the nurse and medical assistant were professional too. After the procedure, Dr. Gaston checked to make sure I was good to go home while also explaining his findings. The nurse and medical assistant each made sure I was good to before I left. I felt no pain or discomfort afterwards. Also the next day Mrs.Gaston called me for a follow up to make sure everything was good and that there was no concerns.I thought that was very impressive especially for this day and age. Metropolitian Gastroenterology is a great medical practice with the friendliness of a family business.

Dr. Gaston gave me my first colonoscopy at Age 50. Kinda late considering my Mom died of colon cancer. Early detection is the key. he removed the polyps . And with regular check up.and sound advice I've ok. Recently I had difficulty swallowing so I visited him and he told me I had GERD. He told me to stop drinking coffee after the examination he put me on some medication and upon taking it the girl went away I'm so grateful for a guy like him!

When I went to see Dr. Gaston it has been an absolute easy breezy experience. Going in for a colonoscopy is not the most joyous occasion, but Dr. Gaston is absolutely incredible! It seems like I dozed off for a nap and they woke me up and it was done! It certainly helps that I got rave reviews on my 63 y/o colon😅. I certainly recommend the team at metropolitan gastroenterology with Dr. Darrien Gaston at the Helm.

On June 6th 2019, I went in for a colonoscopy and everyone that was part of the procedure made me feel real comfortable. Prior to the procedure Dr Gaston made me aware of the good and the bad. Well, of course I was a bit nervous until that anesthesia hit me I was out like a light. Dr Gaston told me when I had awaken that he found 6 polyps and removed them while I was asleep. I feel good and have been working towards changing my diet. Men 50 and over need to get checked out and I recommend going to Dr Gaston.

Dr Gaston is an excellent provider. He is the best provider I’ve had in the last 5 yrs, I have been suffering from GI issues that other providers didn’t address even when I asked for solutions. He is a caring professional with the knowledge and skills to improve your health. So very thankful for Dr Gaston

My experience with MGC providing my colonoscopy was excellent! Dr. Gaston & his staff were totally professional & considerate. Even the preparation period was an improvement over previous, similar procedures. Even the laxatives used during the preparation was superior to products previously used. I can enthusiastically recommend D. Gaston & GMC to any in need of such service. Julian Valentine
