They were very nice. I would recommend them to everyone. The doctor and nurses were all really good to me.
I'm impressed. Originally, I was skeptical of a health facility that communicated with patients remotely & electronically as much as this one. It didn't feel personal enough. My colonoscopy experience, though, was impressive and satisfying. From intake through discharge, I felt well cared for. The staff put me at ease with their caring professionalism. Everyone listened to my concerns and answered al my questions. I was at ease throughout the entire process. My only regret is that I wish I had the printed Colonoscopy Bowel Prep instructions that I received after my initial colonoscopy for my followup colonoscopy. My initial instructions lacked the information regarding bowel prep on days seven and three prior to colonoscopy. Otherwise, I couldn't be happier with my patient experience.
Staff were friendly and efficient. Communication prior to procedure was great.
