"He is one of the most insulting,rude and petulant doctors I have ever met ! Extremely impatient and nasty;he appears eccentric and I never felt comfortable asking him a single question; because his reaction is always capricious and never obliging. He also appears unkempt, he often wears no socks, has dirty feet and tattered sandals. This is poor professional attire for a specialist and this is not Sri-Lanka or another third world country. I definitely would avoid him if you want an empathetic and easy to talk to Gastroenterology doctor.Otherwise,he will go out of his way to make you feel like a fool and is a rotten-egg."

"Dr WICK killed my uncle during a routine colonoscopy. My uncle suffered for a over a year with horrible complications before passing away at home this past weekend. I’d think twice before letting him do a routine colonoscopy."
