Providence PatientMy experiences with Dr. Martyak have all been positive. I feel cared for and seen by the doctor. I leave her office feeling confident because she has provided thoughtful, wise and compassionate care for my condition and will continue to do so, regardless of where the diagnosis and discoveries lead. She is an exceptional doctor, especially within her field. Ailments of the stomach can be isolating and depressing, not to mention chronically painful. Martyak creates a safe haven, with a 'can do' flair.
