Never in my life have I met a doctor who has shown such a level of care and compassion for their patients. Dr Walia is the best. She does everything for her patients and she cares for them as if they were her own. I truly cannot believe how lucky we were to have been referred to her.

My experience so far from scheduling, front office, paperwork, scheduling to the Doctors attention - has been amazing. My Daughters both get seen here and they have had procedures done. If it wasn’t for the thoroughness of the doctor, we would have not be able to help my daughter. The information provided is always very detailed and everyone is very attentive. The Front Office has been an amazing help. I am so grateful that our doctor referred us here!

I cannot recommend Dr. Walia enough! She is so kind and compassionate and took so much time with us. She helped my 3 1/2 year-old feel so comfortable at the appointment as well as my husband and myself. She made herself available to us after hours when we had follow up questions or needed something. She is extremely knowledgeable, kind, and so helpful! We drive from Athens to see her and it's totally worth it! Highly recommend her!

After it was recommended our daughter see a GI and after research of several Dr.s, I am so very glad this was the place we decided on. She spent time with us and explained and discussed so much with us just in this first visit today and I believe we are finally getting answers we have been trying to get for a year. The drive is a little over an hour , but it's worth it! Dr. Walia and her staff are great, I highly recommend her , very ,very pleased thus far.

Christina Anderson
My sweet little girl was having some tummy troubles. We were sent to gastro health for kids in Gainesville. We have been seeing Ritu Walia for 3 months. She is absolutely the most amazing doctor. She is so great with my daughter. She treats children with respect and I can't say enough good about her. Her staff from the desk to the nurses are simply amazing. They are always kind and happy to answer any questions I might have. My favorite part is how much time this doctor spent actually talking to my child making her feel comfortable and overall the best experience I've ever had at any doctor's appointment ever. If you find yourself in need of a gastro healt doctor I would definitely recommend giving them a try. Thank you Dr. Walia! You are amazing!
