Always a great experience with colonoscopy. Kind, on schedule, quick to come back to you in recovery to give results. Even an easier prep with new product.
Everyone was professional and had fast service.
Dr. Wagmann is the best Gastroenterologist specialist and the nicest person you will ever meet ❤️🙏
Dr. Marino is 10/10. He got me on same day for an issue I was having AND got me in to see a specialist I needed VERY quickly. Wouldn’t have happened without him. Best bedside manner too. You’re in good hands.
Respectful to my needs, explaining what my procedure will be.
