Kind and knowledgeable staff. Procedure timing as expected. I would have given a 5 but the bathroom was not as clean as you would expect in a medical space. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent customer service from the beginning to the end of my procedure. The prepping for the procedure was the hardest thing the most difficult thing for me. Once I arrived I got nothing but good customer service and I felt at ease because I was very scared. I don't like needles and the nurse that took care of me Tia what's excellent with making me feel calm. I would recommend anyone to them. I don't want to leave out Dr. Meyerson because he was very professional and good at his job as well. Good job team, I'll see you in 7 to 10 years

Last week. I think the people that I had contact with were friendly and supportive and best of all efficient. Dr. Meyerson is great. The experience was good even for something that is not the most pleasant.

From start to finish this group did the impossible. They made a very invasive procedure as pleasant as can be. From the prep kit ingredients to the caring staff, nurses, and doctor, they knocked it out of the park. If you have to get it done then I would get it done here.

Staying well during the coronavirus pandemic is important, but are you sacrificing your colon health by delaying what could be a life-saving colonoscopy? You may think staying at home is a way you can do your part to prevent the spread of COVID-19, but having a colonoscopy is a basic form of preventive care that could save your life.
Schedule a Colonoscopy to Prevent Colorectal Cancer
Colon cancer is the second-leading cause of cancer death in the United States, but most cases are preventable with routine colonoscopies. According to AMSURG, a leading national healthcare group, more than 200,000 colonoscopies were missed in 2020.
I don’t think that anyone would say that a colonoscopy is a barrel of laughs. Add to that the fact that I am a severe needle phobe. My in person experience with Dr. Chris Ruffini and the staff at Mid Atlantic was exemplary. Each person from Reception to Intake to the dreaded needle to the personnel during the procedure was kind, calm, and competent. (I send a special note of gratitude to Frank and Alex with regard to needles and anesthesia.). Dr. Ruffini exudes the aforementioned kindness, calm, competence and humanity. I am grateful that they took such good care of me.
