My brother was extremely ill, Dr Shindy happened to be booked for through the next 3 wks, but when I explained to his receptionist how sick my brother they immediately recognized the urgency and the Dr Shindy saw him the following day. He was so kind and so caring. He has since throughout the years has seen and treated several members of my family for various issues and he is the same caring person today as he was in 2008. He is an incredible doctor with the best bedside manner of any doctor i've ever met. You are treated so lovinging and so caring as if you were a member of his own family.

Dr. Shindy is very professional and extremely nice. I saw him the first time for a colonoscopy (March 2022) and he was very nice and made me feel very comfortable. His front office staff are very nice and we’re extremely helpful when I was unclear how to do the prep. I was unable to make my office visit (5/22) and they offered to have him call me instead. So thankful for this. He once again listened to my concerns and addressed everything. I’m very happy Dr. Rowady recommended him to me!

Dr. Shindy, as always, was friendly, thorough, remembered my history well and was very pleasant to interact with. I wasn’t sure that I needed to come in as it was a follow up appointment, but in our discussions Dr. Shindy alerted me to a condition that needs to be addressed. I am very pleased that I kept my appointment and that something that I may have overlooked is going to be taken care of. And as always his staff were very nice, friendly and easy to deal with. All in all a great visit.

PA Tang was very thorough during my consult to try and get to the root of my abdominal pain. I was comfortable with her immediately and appreciated the time she took asking about any recent changes in my life that might drill down into the source of the problem. In addition, Mary and Maria in the front area were also very polite and helpful. I highly recommend this office if you are in need of a Gastroenterologist.

Always kind and focused on care and treatment—patient comfort is #1 on their list. Dr. Shindy takes time to explain your individual situation, beyond the well constructed informational papers and your summary of diagnoses. Prompt return on phone calls if your situation changes or there are concerns. Always answers, manageable suggestions, and supportive guidance especially with new or developing circumstances. A++

I was a new patient to this office, after I made my appointment I was sent a link to fill out the paperwork and answer questions about my health so the doctor could familiarize himself with my history prior to my appointment. The office staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Shindy himself was extraordinary, compassionate, friendly, knowledgable, wonderful sense of humor. He didn’t just focus on my symptoms or trying to find out what was my physical ailment, but he addressed my whole being mental, emotional, spiritual as well as physical. He truly understands that the Psyche plays an important role in the physical. I highy recommend this office.

I must give him a good review for many reasons. One of them being, that he has been the only doctor to give me a rational answer as to why I've had my lifelong health issues. I think he is one of those doctors that should be recognized and awarded a prize.

What was helpful was the literature Dr. Shindy provided after my first appointment. It helped me gain extensive knowledge about the procedure. Everything with this office is online so that's a plus!

Probably one of the best doctors I've ever had. He's incredibly thorough, very reassuring, and very funny. I found Dr. Shindy very easy to connect with. It was a very stressful issue for me, and he made me feel much better (both emotionally and physically). I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff. I'm moving to Austin in a few weeks and sad I won't be able to continue seeing Dr. Shindy if I have another issue.

Dr. Shindy is an outstanding physician. He is caring, spends time with his patients and is probably one of the best Gastroenterologists in California. We are truly blessed to have him in Pasadena. Engaging him as your physician will be one of the very intelligent choices you make choosing a Gastroenterologist.

Dr Shindy is the rare doctor who truly listens to you. He knows his medicine but not intimidated by your questions and desire for more information. He will take time to explain diagnosis and threatment. Even simple questions about colon prep he will take time to answer. Both my husband and I will travel from New Mexico to see Dr. Shindy.

Dr. Shindy is very knowledgeable about his field. He takes time to hear your medical history and explains the ailment/disease, how to prevent symptoms/discomfort and treatment procedures in a very articulate manner at the same time will listen intently to you and address each of your concerns. He will take his time with you once you are in his exam room and you will not feel rushed in the least bit, you will feel very comfortable in his exam room. Being that he is so thorough in exams and explanation of your ailment that after your visit with Dr, Shindy, you feel and trust that you are in good hands being in his care. Also, another very important factor is that he does not lag in follow-up and is most definitely on top of his game. He is an exceptional physician with a professional yet caring disposition and is devastatingly handsome on top of it all-sorry I couldn't leave that out. Definitely a valuable resource in the medical community. An all star, all the way!

I have recently seen Dr. Shindy. As a physician myself I was very impressed. He is professional, kind and very knowledgeable. As a physician there are things that we notice that others may not. I evaluated this practice in every aspect. I wanted to incorporate the good things into my own practice. suffice it to say this group of physicians runs a well organized, clean, and efficient practice. Dr. Shindy also performed a procedure on me. Again his skills are excellent. His post procedure explanation was excellent. I was given images and a report of what was found the same day before leaving the procedure suite. A few days later his office called and game me the rest of the results. Over all I had an excellent experience with Dr. Shindy. Not only do I give me high grades but I will also refer my own patients to him and that says it all.
