Colonoscopy and endoscopy is not a fun test to go through. This facility ( College Heights Endoscopy) makes it as pleasant as possible. The staff is so nice and professional it is totally painless! I won't go anywhere else. When my husband was told he needed one he only agreed if he could go here. The doctors finally agreed to get him to go. This staff is fabulous!!!!!!
