Reviews
Dr Volak listened to my issues and concerns and took the time to provide me with answers to my medical problems. He was friendly while being respectful of me and made me comfortable during my visit.
Dr. Volak took time to listen and was very concerned that my symptoms would be addressed
Wonderful experience! Dr Volak was knowledgeable, experienced and professional. He took time to listen and explain options. Grateful to have found him.
My visits with Dr Volak are always informative and helpful.
Dr Volak is one of the most down to earth Drs I have met. Very informative and reassuring but also easy going and even joking before the procedure. I will go back for another test when needed.

Dr. Volak is one of THE BEST in his field!
Best GI doctor ever!! I’ve been Dr. Volak’s patient for 22 years.
Office staff is difficult to deal with on the phone—enough to wonder about the office efficiency. Nurses are wonderful, just impossible to get in touch with them.
The surgery center where I had my last procedure, hospital, was poor in most respects from the viewpoint of the patient.
I’ll deal with all of these issues in order to continue excellent care from Dr. Vollak.

Dr. Volak has been a part of my medical care team for years. His entire staff is amazing. From check-in to visit withDoctor, nurse, P.A., scheduling, to checking out, they are all kind, extremely knowledgeable, caring, and professional.
I would recommend Dr. Volak to anyone. I have had nothing but great care when I see him. I know he will retire someday, but hopefully that is years and years into the future.
