Reviews
I highly recommend Dr. Awtrey. He performed my colonoscopy 7 years ago and will be doing a repeat one in a few weeks. He will put you at ease, has a great bedside manner and is patient with any questions you have.
Dr. Awtrey made what was a very uncomfortable procedure for us women (colonoscopy) stress free. He is professional, proficient and has excellent bedside manner and a great support staff. Thank you.
Awesome personality and Professional manner. Listens and confidently recommended a decision to move forward for better health. I think I’m in Great hands after my beloved former GI Dr. Balart, God Bless his soul.
Dr. Awtrey and his staff are prompt, cordial, knowledgeable and very professional.
My colonoscopy went smoothly. I felt safe throughout my procedure, pre op and post op. Happy to give Dr. Richard Awtrey complements on his successful practice.
