    This review of doctor Carr Locke is way overdue! He saved me! I was diagnosed with gastroparesis by him, seems that many gastro doctors outside of NYC even know what gastroparesis is. So in December of 2018 I went to see him,he knew the pain I was in and he wanted to help me as soon as he could and he did just that. My insurance was giving them a hard time of approving the pyloroplasty procedure, Dr. Carr-Locke made the procedure happen for me anyway. My rehabilitation time took a bit, I did not feel better right of way and Dr. Carr-Locke made it clear that it was not 100% correctable. After about 6 months felt 100% better, I could eat again, no nausea, no tiredness... GONE. I look back at what I went through and cringe to think about it, I was miserable. Dr. Carr-Locke was to the point, no sugar coating anything and I did not need that anyway. He is a true professional and the absolute best at what he does.
