Benjamin Potter

I have known Dr. Potter and gone to Him for procedures on two occasions, twice for Colonoscopy and one of those times for upper Endoscopy as well. He is thorough and kind and his expertise and experience are very evident. He uses humor and down to earth, and most importantly He is kind. I would recommend Him to anyone and I indeed have.

I have seen Dr. Potter twice (EGD & colonoscopy) and highly recommend him based on his professional expertise, communication skills (clear and thorough explanations), and the most helpful and pleasant staff.

Thanks in part to the extensive prep for my colonoscopy, my experience here was quick and painless! I declined to have any sedatives and was able to watch the whole procedure. The staff was happy and efficient and Dr Benjamin Potter did a great job! They found and removed 2 polyps. I highly recommend Portland Gastroenterology and will return here in 5 years for my next colonoscopy!

I would stay away from him. He misdiagnosed an intestinal obstruction twice and also missed a precancerous polyp. He is egotistical and directs conversations his way, instead of listening to patients. He will also let his office staff take the blame for his wrongdoings. He's not to be trusted.

This HACK perforated my mothers ascending colon during a routine scoping. While waiting with her after the procedure, he seemed more concerned about pulling his lobster traps later that afternoon, rather than the health of his patient. He could hardly contain himself. He talked so fast and was obviously in a hurry to get on the water. My mother almost died. Thats no exaggeration. Avoid this careless, fast talking, revolving door hack. He cares more about lobsters than his patients.

Excellent experience all around. I was not looking forward to the procedure but Dr. Potter and his entire staff were extremely competent, quick and considerate.

I saw Dr. Potter for an endoscopy, colonoscopy, and camera scan. After the procedures I was given an explanation of what he saw. The most impressive part of all this was meeting with Dr. Potter a couple weeks after the procedures and he went over all the findings. He was the first doctor I have seen that actually didn't just say you need to loose weight. He explained it all and gave me helpful advice on eating and some exercise tips. He did not seem rushed and was not typing notes. Great Doc.

Have had colonoscopy done x2 & husband had x1. Excellent physician in this regard;much better experience than I had when I lived in Massachusetts & I thought those colonoscopies weren't too bad either. This so far, was the best as far as colonoscopies go.
