They run a very well organized program. This was my first colonoscopy and they kept me informed every step of the way. When people say you do not remember anything , they are telling the truth. The last thing I remember was Lisa giving me the medication and the next thing I know I was waking up in recovery. I was extremely nervous about this so I have been putting it off for 4 years but it really was not that bad.

I was very comfortable being there. The Staff was very nice and professional and treated me very nice. The doctor was running behind, but that didn't bother me. I'm glad I went there for my procedure.

My husband and I had an appointment at 7:15 am and as soon as we arrived there , we were welcome by receptionist . She explained our agenda will be during our visit. After a few minutes I was called to go in. I had the doctor, two nurses and a subject matter expert that explain the procedure to me. They asked me multiple questions to make sure first They understand the reason for my visit and second I understand the detail of the procedure and the result plus follow up. I was very pleased with the hospitality of the staff and how they welcomed me and comfort me during the visit. The doctor was very pleasant and keen to understand my issue and explain the detail of my symptoms to me. The nursing staff were very helpful. The office itself had a private area for each patient and overall I had an excellent experience. . I will recommend the place to everyone that has a need for this procedure. I will give them a rating of 5 from 5. Thank you DR Jorge Uribe .
