Dr. Isaac Kalvaria

I was his patient until I received notice he was retiring but I found him again & he is accepting patients. I have needed a doctor but none meet my expectations like Dr. Kalvaria.

Had my throat stretched by Dr. Kalvaria and since then my voice hasn’t been the same. I think he somehow nicked a vocal cord. I used to sing somewhat well and now I can’t hit the notes I used to and my voice sounds raspy, not like before the procedure. It has been almost 2 years since this was done and I can’t stop wondering what he did in that operating room! Also, they used some sort of anesthesia that burned when they administered it. I asked a nurse friend the other day about it and she said that’s the meds to make you forget what happens and it should never burn! Needless to say, I Dr. Kalvaria is no longer my doctor and the word is out what he did to me... Had my throat stretched by Dr. Kalvaria and since then my voice hasn’t been the same.

I have had the good fortune to go to Dr. Kalvaria for many years for colonoscopies and follow ups for celiac disease. I highly recommend this man of integrity and intellect. I have recently relocated to another state and wish I could take him with me.

I miss him! Can't find another Dr i trust. My colon and spleen got punctured in Costa Rica cause i had no insurance and no one in my country would help me. He was sooo great and said he would certainly have helped me with price had i cslled him. Did 2 more colonoscopued in last few years. We joke before i go under. Loved Stella too. Very bummed this office wont take me since Kalvaria retired. He had too many patients for Dr Sutherland to take on. Im at a loss ??

Kalvaria himself is a wonderful doctor. I have nothing positive to say about the staff of his office. Several people working there have been beyond rude to myself or my husband. More often than not, there is no one to answer the phone. They are unresponsive, forget to call back to schedule appointments, and generally extremely difficult to get anything done. I am not sure if the quality of care is worth dealing with the incompetence of the office. Kalvaria himself is a wonderful doctor. I have nothing positive to say about the staff of his office.

Dr. Kalvaria is one of the best gastroenterologists in the Sarasota/Bradenton area. He explains everything to you. He is patient and willing to answer question too. I have referred him to several of my clients. His staff is great too.

Terrible experience with this waste of a doctor. He literally laughed in my face when I suggested my problems were probably from Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. I have since gotten an official diagnosis but I will never forget leaving this office in tears. Disgraceful that he still has a license.

This is the hardest office in America to make an appointment with I have no idea why they don't have somebody to answer the phones regularly like every other business in the world has. Today I finally get through to a person and their servers are down I'm so over at why do I have to beg for an appointment when I'm giving somebody my money and my insurance company is paying for these procedures that is giving them thousands of dollars doesn't make any sense to me I'm going to find another doctor This is the hardest office in America to make an appointment with I have no idea why they don't have somebody to answer the phones regularly like every other business in the world has.

Tried to call this office to schedule an appointment for an entire day. NO ANSWER on the phones. I just routes around through a loop. They must be over loaded with business that they don't need to answer the phone there. I was referred by SMH Urgent Care. Maybe SMH isn't aware of the issues in his office. If they can't answer the phone, then they can't do anything else either. Tried to call this office to schedule an appointment for an entire day. NO ANSWER on the phones.

Excellent doctor and a kind person. Never a long wait.

Very compassionate, and usually running on time. Patient and gentle.

I have been a patient for years with Dr. Kalvaria. He is patient and friendly. He listens to my concerns. I have had two colonoscopies performed by him.

I would like to make an addendum to my entry of June 18th. At that time there were problems with the patient portal system and the telephone voice mails in Dr. Kalvaria’s office. Once I was able to talk with Dr. Kalvaria I felt very comfortable with him and his expertise. In fact, due to his experience and attention to detail he found a very small growth in an unusual area and it was able to be removed before it could create major problems. One never knows but this thoroughness may well have sa

Although Dr. Kalvaria was excellent along with his anesthesiologist Dr. Sunday his staff is completely INCOMPETENT. At the time of my procedure I was incorrectly charged hundreds of dollars and still have not received a refund yet have been sent overdue bills that the office said was a mistake. Over a dozen phone calls to staff have NEVER been returned. I received the wrong orders for the lab and had to spend an entire day getting the correct paperwork in which I actually had to go to his office and get because no calls were returned. I have a long time friend who is in digestive health and they said it is a shame because he and staff used to be the pinnacle of digestive health in Sarasota---NOT ANYMORE Although Dr. Kalvaria was excellent along with his anesthesiologist Dr. Sunday his staff is completely INCOMPETENT.

I spent 2+ yrs, $20,000 in prescriptions and my issues are the same. I complained to his staff never received a response. I had to threaten them to get my records. Not so helpful since this doctor is a mbr of the Florida Digestive Health Physicians group, Dr. Lee Mitchel refused to see me because I had been a patient of dr. Kalvaria. Restraint of Trade comes to mind! A shock to me that another referred doctor would not see me because I fired a member of their group. Stay from this whole group

Dr Kalvaria is a competent physician, however the office is so poorly run that it could put your health at risk. In addition to being disorganized, the attitude of the staff is dismissive, somewhat careless, and bordering on a lack of respect for patients. Just getting through to the office staff is next to impossible. You leave voicemails only (no humans available) and someone may or may not return your call. The office administration is unreliable.

I had a very complex colon polyp situation, and Dr. Kalvaria was able to keep me from having my colon removed. I have found him to be an excellent diagnostician, and he has been a friendly and caring physician.

Dr. Kalvaria has been my gastroenterologist for several years. The level of care is outstanding. He takes the time to explain conditions and procedures fully with recommendations for self care. He seems to connect with patients on a personal level. I mentioned once that I often had leg cramps after hard exercise. He said he takes yellow mustard, which contains soluble magnesium. IT WORKS!! My favorite anecdote from any doctor I ever visited, it was totally candid and I am grateful.

I highly recommend Dr. Kalvaria. I had a consult with another physician who recommended surgery. Dr. Kalvaria was thorough in exploring other options first and I am now successfully in remission with medication and surgery isn't needed.
