I can't begin to tell you how wonderful this office is! Dr Messallam, Gladys, Mr Emmi, Aaliyah and Aaron were all fabulous! I am so blessed to have been sent to this practice! I trust Dr. Messallam totally! Please thank all of them!

I had to get lab work done. They gave me a list of locations. I went to 400 Towers, signed in and was denied service. The nurse said it only for their patients. So, I stopped by the one on Barrett Parkway. Tried to log in and the system said I was logged in at Towers and there was no way to change it. This is not the first time of this lack of access to Wellstar labs. It is getting old, my husband has had the same problem. Someone needs to fix the lab access. Please!

October 6, 2025

Fix the lab access issues. It been a mess for several years. My wife went to 2 and gave up.

I couldn't understand the front desk people They don't speak up Whispering instructions doesn't work Sorry

Excellent experience!

September 22, 2025

The PA was exceptionally concerned and very conscientious. The receptionists were cordial. The physician was professional and quite perceptive... picking up an audible problem with my voice which I had not mentioned ... during our first meeting. He clearly explained his scope and other specialities to which he would refer me.

September 22, 2025

5

The young girl at check in could have been a little more friendly. Did not seem to want to be there. Otherwise I loved the practice, the nurse was great and the doc was super. I will make sure to let all my friends know about this practice. My experience was wonderful. Thank you.

September 16, 2025

Dr. Messallam listened carefully and was very thorough. The office staff were super nice too!

Dr. Messallam was so very thorough in my visit. He is going to check all areas to help regain some lost energy.

September 19, 2025

5

Before visiting Dr. Messallam, I was incredibly frustrated with the treatments and diagnoses I received from other GI doctors. I suffered from constant diarrhea caused by antibiotics that destroyed my good bacteria. As a result, I quickly developed C. difficile, campylobacter, and norovirus. Working in the school system took a serious toll on my health-I got so sick. No one ever told me to take probiotics, and by the time I started, it was already too late. Dr. Messallam is the only GI specialist I truly trust. He has conducted countless tests and treatments, and I feel so much better now. I've even gained a little weight, which was very important to me. Dr. Messallam is a brilliant gastroenterologist, and I wouldn't trade him for anyone else. I truly hope he stays with Wellstar.

September 11, 2025

5

Dr. Messallam is an example of what a doctor should be. He is cordial, has great bedside manners, listens, is very knowledgeable, and puts a lot of thought into the patient and the patient's condition. My father was an MD and my pediatrician. I have gotten that level of care from perhaps only five other doctors in my nearly 70-year lifetime, and Dr. Messallam is one of them.

It was a great experience. The doctors were amazing. They did a good job explaining how he was doing for a little over a year. I've had the opportunity to work with him now several times. The office is great. The doctors are great. With that said, I really appreciate them and wish them continued success. They obviously have a winning formula over there. So thank you.

The testing is extensive. I'm still being followed to determine a valid diagnosis. The previous lab I was sent to did not perform the complete labs, Gastro Dr. wasn't too happy with this outcome. They only performed partial lab order which is causing doubles trips and confusion.

July 31, 2025

It was my first visit with them so I don't have a lot to review on but I am happy with everything so far.

The ladies at the front desk, are unprofessional. They do not greet you when you enter the office or are they polite and respectful. The front staff needs retraining or something else.

I am very grateful the doctor is willing to visit by phone rather than make me drive from Ellijay to his office. Atlanta traffic is nerve racking.

It was a great experience. The doctors were amazing. They did a good job explaining how he was doing for a little over a year. I've had the opportunity to work with him now several times. The office is great. The doctors are great. With that said, I really appreciate them and wish them continued success. They obviously have a winning formula over there. So thank you.

Dr. Messallam is an example of what a doctor should be. He is cordial, has great bedside manners, listens, is very knowledgeable, and puts a lot of thought into the patient and the patient's condition. My father was an MD and my pediatrician. I have gotten that level of care from perhaps only five other doctors in my nearly 70-year lifetime, and Dr. Messallam is one of them.

Before visiting Dr. Messallam, I was incredibly frustrated with the treatments and diagnoses I received from other GI doctors. I suffered from constant diarrhea caused by antibiotics that destroyed my good bacteria. As a result, I quickly developed C. difficile, campylobacter, and norovirus. Working in the school system took a serious toll on my health-I got so sick. No one ever told me to take probiotics, and by the time I started, it was already too late. Dr. Messallam is the only GI specialist I truly trust. He has conducted countless tests and treatments, and I feel so much better now. I've even gained a little weight, which was very important to me. Dr. Messallam is a brilliant gastroenterologist, and I wouldn't trade him for anyone else. I truly hope he stays with Wellstar.

The young girl at check in could have been a little more friendly. Did not seem to want to be there. Otherwise I loved the practice, the nurse was great and the doc was super. I will make sure to let all my friends know about this practice. My experience was wonderful. Thank you.

Dr. Messallam was so very thorough in my visit. He is going to check all areas to help regain some lost energy.

The PA was exceptionally concerned and very conscientious. The receptionists were cordial. The physician was professional and quite perceptive... picking up an audible problem with my voice which I had not mentioned ... during our first meeting. He clearly explained his scope and other specialities to which he would refer me.

Fix the lab access issues. It been a mess for several years. My wife went to 2 and gave up.

I had to get lab work done. They gave me a list of locations. I went to 400 Towers, signed in and was denied service. The nurse said it only for their patients. So, I stopped by the one on Barrett Parkway. Tried to log in and the system said I was logged in at Towers and there was no way to change it. This is not the first time of this lack of access to Wellstar labs. It is getting old, my husband has had the same problem. Someone needs to fix the lab access. Please!
