Patient Reviews
Jun 27, 2019
I have been a patient of Dr Schnell since 2009 after another GI doctor perforated my esophagus. He always has taken excellent care care of me and listens when I am explaining an issue. I have had several EGDs now and all have gone well with no side effects. Excellent physician! Just wish he was still practicing out of the Summerville office!
