About Christopher I. Maxwell, M.D.
“I chose gastroenterology because of the fascinating science and the chance to prevent cancer. I was attracted to a varied practice with time spent in the office, in the endoscopy center and in the hospital, plus the long- and short-term relationships with patients.
“I really enjoy working one-on-one with patients to solve problems, preventing cancer with screening colonoscopy and seeing results, both procedurally and in the clinic. I am understanding, straightforward, detailed and thorough. I like to empower my patients to manage their own conditions by helping them understand their physiology, what can go wrong when they have certain diseases and their treatment options.
“I am extremely thorough, and I provide evidence-based medicine to help patients achieve the best results and a better quality of life.”
In his free time, Dr. Maxwell enjoys mountain-biking, skiing, snowboarding and being a dad.

Reviews
All of the Staff was Amazing!
I felt very supported through the whole process. Everyone I encountered was kind and caring and very helpful. And Dr Maxwell, of course, was incredible!! He treated me so respectfully and kindly. He is a very skilled and competent m.d. and also has a really great bedside manner. I appreciate everything and highly recommend Dr Maxwell, his team and this facility!! Many thanks!!
Dr. Chris Maxwell and his team have always taken SUCH good care of me!!! I just had my second colonoscopy as a 26 year old so I was understandably slightly nervous but the team did such a lovely job of putting me right at ease. Dr. Maxwell interacts in the way I would hope every doctor did!!! He listens so sincerely, takes such good notes to refresh himself about you before your appointment, doesn’t ever feel rushed, looks at you and the situation holistically, and is kind and sincere. I’ve been abundantly grateful to have Dr. Maxwell on my health team!!!
Dr. Maxwell and his team were kind and personable. They made sure I understood everything with very clear education and instructions. They assured that I was comfortable and provided quality care.
Dr Maxwell is truly a gem of a physician, he is compassionate, considerate, and thorough. I have utmost confidence in his treatment.
