• Will never return to Dr. Wolfman or Coastal Gastro Docs. I have pain in my gallbladder area, pain in the center of my chest, and have imaging which shows multiple gallstones and a condition known as sludge. I also recently had vomiting and a few other symptoms, but made the appt to discuss long term GI issues too. He gave me 8 minutes. Dismissive of a gallbladder issue (he may not be right, based on a previous doc from Coastal being wrong about a hernia that required surgery less than a month later). Dr. Wolfman was condescending and rude. When I asked about my concerns of having a gallbladder attack, his response was, rudely, "What IS a gallbladder attack?" in an attempt to make me look foolish. This was clearly said with the intention of trying to embarrass me or make me make a fool out of myself. I told him what I knew of it and he gave no information back. He said "I treat patients not ultrasounds" when I expressed concern about the sludge condition. He said 30% of people have it. I've known 2 whose led to removal, 1 led to an attack. He also appeared to refuse to believe me about the reason (quickest available) that I went to a place an hour away for the hernia surgery consultation and surgery. He challenged that assertion THREE TIMES! Refused to discuss anything else. Similar issues with Dr. Jain from this practice, which led to him doing nothing during the appointment except tell me I either have no hernia or it's fine and then refuse any other discussions about my G.I. issues "until after a colonoscopy" which I had to cancel because I HAD TO HAVE SURGERY FOR THE HERNIA LESS THAN A MONTH AFTER SEEING HIM! I do not recommend any doctor from Coastal Gastroenterology Associates also known as Coastal Gastro Docs. I made the mistake of trying a different doctor at this place and I greatly regret it. You may very well end up with a condescending doctor who gives you only 10 minutes, refuses to even go over your history, and makes what may be very inaccurate assessments based on almost nothing of an appointment and, if your experience is anything like mine, you may end up needing surgery based on what they missed (and dismissed rudely and condescendingly).
