I searched for a long time for a doctor I felt comfortable with and who I felt I could trust. I don't want to have procedures that I don't need and I want things explained to me in a way that I can understand. I found all this and more with Dr. Cabansag. I am happy with her and don't need to go anywhere else. I feel fortunate to have found San Francisco Gastroenterology.

Dr. Cabansag is great! I feel super comfortable with her and she is very knowledgeable ! However her office staff is pretty disappointing, I've been waiting 2 weeks for them to call in my new medication. I have even called them to follow up and it still has not been done. Ernie who deals with scheduling is the best employee they have there.

Dr. Cabasag is a really excellent Dr. She is kind, considerate and has a sense of humor that helps make any gastro procedure not so bad! I was lucky to have her as a Dr. for my two-part procedure as I was very nervous and concerned about all of it. She put my mind at ease and it made a huge difference for me. Plus, her office staff are wonderful, too!

Dr. Cabansag really listens to what I say and responds . She is an excellent doctor. She asks questions to further her understanding. She does not rush, and she spends lots of time with each patient. I wish all my doctors were like her.
