Reviews
Excellent care and service from start To finish. Great bedside manner and explanation of everything. Willing to answer any question and put his patients mind at ease
As always the team at Dr. Thyssen's facility are really professional and always so kind. Thank you so much.
Best GI doctor ever. Saved my life several times and keeps me going strong.
I LOVE Dr. Erik P Thyssen at Advanced Endoscopy Center. He has done my three colonoscopies/endoscopies. I send all Friends and Family to Advanced Endoscopy Center for colonoscopies, endoscopies and very great Gastroenterology care. Thank you ALL.
It could not have been better, Amy inserted the IV and I did not feel a thing. Doctor Thyssen remembered me from 5 years ago, or he made it feel that way, very open and answered any question PLUS stopped by when I awoke. Got a call on Friday asking how I was. Drop the prep am I’m there each week. Thanks
