All the staff and personnel were professional, very caring, and friendly. They went the extra mile by calling me and texting me the day after my procedure to see how I was doing and if I had any after procedure complications. They also called me 3 days after the procedure to check up on me. They were very busy while I was there and the check in was a little long, but overall I was very pleased with the Endoscopy center and definitely recommend it.

I was referred to this facility for a procedure. Every member of this facility was amazing. They were so nice and caring. It’s an extremely stressful situation but they made sure that I understood and that i was taken care of every step of the way!! They were all amazing!

I was little bit worried after i read the previous comments but my experience was really good. The nurses are amazing and the anesthesia lady (couldn't catch her name) was amazing as well. They saw i was nervous and they talked to me to calm me down and even turn on the music little bit. Definitely recommend this place.

Ask for Early Colon Cancer Screening Based on Your Family History
If colon cancer runs in your family, it could affect your colon cancer screening age – the age when you should begin getting screened for the disease.
Get a Screening Colonoscopy for the Sake of Your Health and Your Family
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.
COVID protections are in place. Front desk, nurses, anesthesiologist, doctor and all staff were very friendly and professional. I would recommend this place for Endoscopy or Colonoscopy.
