Very professional and informative. I wasn’t treated like a number. Very important to be treated like a human and that you care about my health. I would recommend and yes I am going back to have my colonoscopy.

I rarely see Dr's fore I've been pretty healthy most of my life and stick to holistic measures, for the most part. I dint like going to see Dr's or going to hospitals unless necessary, but I was really comfortable with my first visit. I will definitely will continue treatment.

Gave great information pertaining to my situation. What he told me to do has so far taken care of this persistent situation.

The dr and the staff were all great. My first time visit. Really nice and caring. Give them 5 stars for that. However, I waited for over 1.5 hours to be seen, which is not acceptable for me. I was there on time (20mins prior to my appointment actually) and I had to go back to work. I understand that the office is busy, but please plan the aplointments so that the time makes sense. Not everyone has the time to wait. Anything over 30mins of waiting is too much. Thanks!
