He had read my prior charting which goes back 8 years and the latest report 3 years ago. He fully explained the colonoscopy process, its reasons, outcomes, and the plan for any scenario. He had a pre-prepared sheet for the prep and I was immediately scheduled for the procedure. Everyone who talked to me knew exactly what to do, what to say and there was no time wasted.
