Very friendly, polite and comforting.
Professional and Caring Team.
Staff and experience all great. Just a little overkill on notifications. Emails, texts, letters, and calls
Clear pre treatment instructions and excellent discussion on what to expect.
I had a concern over sedation that was discussed with the Doctor and the procedure went great.

My experience was excellent! From the pleasant staff at the Check In, to the excellent Preparation Nurses, to the Surgical Nurses and Dr Schwartz, and the Post-Check Out, they were all so organized, professional, knowledgeable, respectful, and completed the process in less than two hours!
I was contacted early the next day with a follow-up phone call. This was important because I had a few questions that were responded to immediately.
My test results were great and I'm 100% satisfied with the entire process!

Very knowledgeable, nice person, professional
Next time I’ll ask questions on MyChart directly after the procedure to talk to the doctor instead of waiting 5 months for a zoom meeting.

Reception was good and a detailed explanation of the whole procedure and what to expect after the process was given clearly and to the point. It was my first time to do my colonoscopy.
The nurses helped me to ease the anxiety and made sure I understood everything that was happening to me at that time.
Thanks Dr. Darren and the nurses too.

Dr Swartz is always very detailed and understands what I’m going through and gives good advice when needed. Cares about you overall as a patient I always feel heard.
Great experience. Nobody wants to have colonoscope. But if you gotta,these folks do it right. Kind, thorough, considerate. Answer questions. As good as you'll find. Highly recommend.
