Dr Momeni is exceptional. I have been suffering for years. Now I know my food allergies & will receive medicine for my infections. I would love to mention Melissa, front desk, essential worker. Soothed my nerves & accomodated my Show moreoffice visit. Very patient. We need kindness in these days. I would also like to personally thank Jannarra in the Poughkeepsie office of Digestive Diseases. My 3rd hydrogen test was cancelled in error. I was extremely weak, weighing 98lbs. Jannarra immediately calmed me down. She said she would fix the error. I was faint with worry because of my weight loss & my office visit cancelled. With Jannarra's expertise, she addressed the computer glitch & made sure my appointment was in tact. She calmy told me it is ok. Please, with my heartfelt wishes, thank Jannarra in the Poughkeepsie, NY office. Even through the protective plexiglass & mask, I can see Jannarra's true sincerity & unique compassion. During this long Pandemic I am extremely grateful for your front line Essential Workers, namely Jannarra & Melissa in Fishkill. Please put a letter of recognition of myself & her supervisor Stephanie. I verbally applauded such fine employees. I appreciate the above & beyond consideration, especially Dr Momeni accomodating my tests at 12noon rather than 8:30am. I am again grateful.
It is rare that I give a positive review on anyone in the medical profession. I have been in the medical profession for the past 20 years as an EMT, and I hold them to the same high standard I hold myself to. They are either in Show morea rush, in love with themselves, and/or not interested enough in you. However, Ms Duverger is a notable breath of fresh air. She listens. She cares. She knows her stuff. Simply put, I left her office with the feeling that I had been seen by a true healer. She addressed my problem, listened to me, and found me relief to a problem that has plagued me for years. She was engaging, friendly, and warm. As I'm now a Senior, I am seeing Doctors much more often now. I feel more than qualified when I say that Ms. Duverger is simply wonderful, and only gave her 5 stars because there weren't 6 offered. Thank you so much.

Doctor was in and out within 2minutes. He found it humorous when I raised issue of my stitches. He touched my stomach, laughed and said it was fat. No question about diet or exercise. Of which I am pretty strict.

DR. DUVERGER IS A VERY GOOD DOCTOR I WOULD RECOMMEND HER TO ANY OF MY FAMILY OR FRIENDS.
It went well
Wonderful workers
Everyone was pleasant and professional, especially the med tech Joy. I was uncomfortable however with the doctor who I felt was staring at my chest and touched me (shoulder, knees) unnecessarily
Ms. Cynthia Duverger was very thorough explaining the results of my procedure, and answered all my questions very professionally!
It was uneventful and organized, which is the best thing one could experience at a doctor’s office.
