Patient Reviews
Sep 14, 2023
My husband has been to numerous gastroenterologists for stomach issues that significantly impacted the quality of his life. Every one either told him to eat more fiber and sent him on his way, or simply told him there was nothing wrong and then sent him on his way. Enter Dr. Carreira...he didn't quit until he found some answers. (Fiber was the WRONG thing to take, causing him even more pain). His time and diligence in taking my husband seriously and getting answers has given my husband hope for getting his active life back. As well, his demeanor and ease of approach with any questions have been/are so very appreciated! I would highly recommend him to everyone with gastro problems. Thank you, Dr. Carreira!
