Patient Reviews
Jul 10, 2025
Dr Short was so patient with me. He was incredibly thorough and made sure all my questions were answered and helped me fully understand my Crohn's. He also helped me understand my treatment options and was very knowledgeable about which path to take. I highly recommend seeing him if you prefer a more gentle approach.
