As a physically fit 25 year old, I don’t think she expected to see a 6 cm polyp in my sigmoid colon. But she was able to remove ALL of it during my colonoscopy! She took the time to communicate the pathology results even when she said was on a vacation, and she actually thanked me for being proactive about my health.

I must say I felt love from the time I walked in, to the time when the doctor came in to prep me for what was about to take place.

"Our experience with Dr. Godambe was exceptional. Outstanding. (1) First, Dr. Godambe genuinely listened to our concerns - our perspectives - on caring for our son (who we brought to her for care). She then responded thoughtfully. We left thinking that she truly cared about us as people. (2) She was also thorough in her responses, in her diagnoses and in her recommendations. (3) She was super prompt in responding to calls and in reaching us with an urgent x-ray update. Highly recommend on all levels!"
