"I recently had a procedure performed by Dr Hymel at WJMC Endoscopy Center. Dr Hymel and his team took time to introduce themselves and explain all aspects of the procedure. They all made sure I was comfortable and answered any questions I might have had. The center was very clean and well staffed - everyone I encountered was pleasant and professional. I was called the following day by a nurse with the center who asked about my recovery at home. I couldn’t have had a better experience with the entire team and would highly recommend using Dr Hymel at the Endoscopy Center."
