Mr. Thiru S Arasu

Reading some of these reviews I would not judge the doctor by certain individuals in his office staff. Dr. Arasu is a GREAT doctor! He saved our daughters life with his immediate diagnosis and treatment. She would not be here if not for him. I have six children (now grown) and three have seen him for various reasons throughout the years, NEVER once have we had a bad visit with him or his PA/NP. Certain office staff could improve, but I don't believe his office staff is specifically selected by the doctor any longer. Many medical offices are now staffed with employees from a corporate blanket like BayCare, St. Joe's or other large healthcare companies. Regardless of isolated incidents with staff, I will still go to him with our grandchildren when needed for his expertise. He is also one of the nicest and most caring doctors we have been too. Known him for 20 years!

I accidentally went up to this doctor office window instead of my doctor office window, one office staff lady rudely told me AND rolled her eyes at me. She actually looked as if she would fight me after, hair dyed red. I have since read many reviews where patients speak about how rude this staff is. How unprofessional to act that way when you are dealing with people who don’t feel well. They take peoples money and service but do not act professional.

I can’t begin to express how disappointed I am with Dr. Arasu and his staff. Not only does his “bedside manner” completely contradict what one would expect from a pediatric doctor, he is arrogant and condescending. He truly believes his time is more important than yours. Be prepared to wait for over an hour, even if you are the first patient scheduled. His staff has the audacity to claim they don’t triple book. However, two families were checked in before us with the same 7am time slot. When he finally decided to grace us with his presence, he was rude, vague and unable to thoroughly present a diagnosis. He mentioned the next step would be to perform a procedure “that is very expensive and your insurance probably won’t cover”. He also said not to bother getting the blood work he ordered done at Quest as they won’t make any money. Lastly, I was trying to take notes as there is a language barrier (he is incredibly hard to understand, especially while wearing a mask for Covid). He told me I would be getting a report/summary and to “read it and make of it what you will”. I wasn’t aware I was also a gastroenterologist. I’m laughing as I write this as I’m baffled as to how he thinks this is acceptable behavior and treatment towards his patients and their caregivers. Not to mention, his staff is beyond rude and completely unhelpful. Be prepared to do all your own research, etc. in regards to finding locations that will perform the procedures the doctor ordered (many places do not perform the procedures on minors). I’m all for doing some of my own research but is it asking too much to be pointed in the right direction?! Have a little empathy and compassion for these kids and do your job.

Years ago our son was a failure to thrive baby and had problems eating . He could have been retarded if we didn't get his help due to inability to get proper nutrition and absorbtion. Dr. Arasu did a very thorough work up. Dr. Arasu gave us the best advice and all the tools and help we needed. Our son is now 15 very healthy and thriving . He is a hero in our book!

Dr Thiru S Arazu one of the beast dr we are 7 years with him our son he getting butter and heel thank you to you and all nurses

Dr. Arasu is great, however his office staff is a zoo. They are short and rude with patients. They confuse patients charts while on the phone. They told me I had a different insurance company and are now telling me I owe money, when I know I dont. They need to have a better way of making sure they are looking at the correct information when speaking about a patient as well as inputting the correct info in the charts. Unhappy with the way they run things.

Very very rude and impatient. Im a home health nurse and I had called him regarding an issue with my patient and he cut me off half way of me explaining the situation and didnt give me a clear order. So when i called back to get clarity, afterwards he told me "dont ever call me again"

So far our experience with dr. Arasu and his staff has been great. My child was asked by her primary care physician to be seen for an urgent GI Dr arasu home for her that very same day and we didn't hardly even have to wait 15 minutes. Yes the arpn does do a lot of the talking but for my fifteen-year-old daughter she's much more comfortable in that situation. That also gives me confidence that the team is wise and making good decisions together. All associates friendly, helpful there and phone

Stay away! All this doctor does is come in sit in a chair say yes and no to the arnp. I took my son in with chronic abdominal pain, gas, and cramping after constipation 2 weeks ago and he stated there is nothing he can do. IBS does not exist in small children according to him and I left there with a child in pain everyday of his life and all he said was the next time he is screaming in pain to take him to the ER. He refused doing any testing for food intolerance also.

Dr. Arasu saved my life when I was a teenager. No one could figure out why I was nauseated every single day for five years. He found the 17 ulcerations throughout my GI tract and cured me. I can never thank him enough. I hope to see him again one day to thank him in person. Wonderful doctor!

I was treated by Dr. Arasu for Crohns Disease from 12 to 18 years old. He was always kind and gentle. He treated me with respect and never talked down to me. I would recommend him to everyone.

I took my 17 year old daughter in to see him because she was having pain every time she ate. He was so gentle and so understanding of her pain. He tried medication, but when that did not work he did test on her to figure out the point of her pain and found out it was her gallbladder we scheduled surgery and even then he showed that same kindness.

Stay away from this office. First this doctor has never even touched my son to check him out, he leaves it up to his ARNP. All he does is come in and sit in a chair and fold his arms and says yes or no to whatever the ARNP has come up with. Also he is never on time and average wait time is about 1-2 hours. They have awful communication skills. They would say they called and left me a message and NEVER did. I had to go over 5 days to get a stool card result that takes 5 mins. zero stars for him!!

Felt like a drive-by diagnosis. Arasu didn't prescribe any medicine to help with symptoms after being diagnosed on a Friday (going into weekend) and after MONTHS of testing with pediatrician and dealing with symptoms wondering what the problem was. Office needs more staff because phone rings with no answer during office hours for nurse or just to schedule appointment and when you do have appointment never seen on time. Once in room feels rushed by Arasu. I have since found another doctor.

Dr. Arasu has helped our son I am so thankful we have found him. He listens to what we say and answers our questions. Not like other doctors who told us it is IBS we listened until he became so sick that we found Dr Arasu and he has help us get our son healthy. Anybody who tells you this man is not good has their own issues. Not only do you see the NP you also see the DR every visit. What office does that? Every Visit you have time spent with you. Please tell me who does that?
