I just had a colonoscopy done there today. Everyone there made the experience so wonderful. I was definitely nervous going in. Patty and Karen were so warm and answered all my questions prior to the procedure - even when they had a tough time finding a vein! Roy, the anesthesiologist, was funny and made me so comfortable. And Dr. Pickle was so nice after the procedure and took the time to stop by and check in. Would definitely recommend!!!!

The staff here is second to none. From the young lady who took my information, to the nurses and staff in the prep, surgical and recovery areas, I couldn't have asked for better care and treatment. This was my fourth time undergoing a procedure there, and again, it was a first class experience. Btw, they also have a good sense of humor !!!! I highly recommend.

I had a colonoscopy there yesterday. I was very impressed by the organization and competency of the employees at the endoscopy center. Everyone was caring, compassionate and skilled and totally focused on my welfare. Fortunately I am in good health and don’t need another colonoscopy for 10 years but I will be back! Thank you to the staff and to Dr. John Park.

Arrived early, immediately acknowledged, everything ran on time, staff was exceptionally nice and professional, procedure went perfectly. Couldn't have asked for a better experience...except, of course, not having to go through it...or the prep. Thank you all!!
