My experience with WAGI and Dr. Agrawal was generally positive. The wait time from door to procedure was minimal, as Dr. Agrawal's bedside manner was excellent and deserving of a 5-star rating. However, I had a less than ideal experience once I was brought back for the actual colonoscopy.
While the intake nurses were very pleasant, I felt the care and communication declined once I reached the procedural area. There, I was placed on a gurney with several people giving me instructions, but they failed to introduce themselves. It felt more like an assembly line than personalized patient care.
As an RN with 24 years of experience, 14 of those in the operating room, I know the importance of easing a patient's anxiety, especially for a procedure. Simple steps like introductions using AIDET and ensuring patient comfort can go a long way. Instead, I felt rushed through the process, with no consideration given to positioning me comfortably despite my known hip issues.
After the procedure, I experienced significant pain in my left hip, likely due to the improper positioning or a failure to attention of my injuries. This could
have been avoided with better communication and a more deliberate, patient-centered approach.
I would encourage the WAGI team to slow down, use AIDET, and treat each patient as an individual, not just another colonoscopy on the schedule. Attention to these details can make a big difference in the overall patient experience.

I felt very comfortable with the care I received.
All the staff were very professional.

Colonoscopy Prep was the least uncomfortable I’ve experienced. Once I’d checked in, the staff were friendly, thorough, and professional. Interaction with Dr Agrawal was brief, but efficient.
I’ve start painless. OR staff were friendly and efficient. CRNA was clearly knowledgeable, answered questions and administered anesthesia painlessly. Wake up without ill effects or any discomfort. Went home happy and a little loopy. Ate, took a nap, and resumed life.
No post-wake up cramping and embarrassing gas (apparently this was old-school).
As an PACU RN myself, I don’t think this experience could have been any better.
My own tip: for the next two or three days, take an over the counter stool softener, an easily digested fiber supplement like Metamucil and eat easily digested foods, I.e., potatoes and rice, chicken, and white breads until your first bowel movement. It could be a day or two.

Dr. Agrawal is very kind and you know he cares. Very pleasant. The nurses are very nice and take care of you to help all the way. I love his nurses.
Nice to know that Dr remembers me and my situation. I see him every year and have never had any troubles with him or the staff. They’re all super friendly and caring
Dr. Agrawal is very thorough and knowledgeable in his profession. He is very kind and you can discuss well of your issue without any hesitation. The best gastro Doctor I met.
Professional, friendly doctor and staff. Great office to have a procedure.
Very friendly, helpful, and professional with a smaller facility that offers the feeling of personal care. The procedure went smoothly with the doctor or nurses explaining each step. Definitely a 5 star rating
I had a fantastic experience. Friendly and gentle. Very professional and kind. A definite win.
Friendly and professional staff at all stages of my procedure. Dr. A is a good communicator and open to questions. Every step at WAGI was easy and stressless.
I liked my visit. I was respected
All staff members and the Doctor were very kind and knowledgeable. You receive a lot of instructions to help make the procedure a success. Highly recommend Dr. Agrawal and staff.
Dr. Agrawal and his staff are amazing!!
I'm very pleased with the procedure I had done at WAGI. This is my 3rd procedure, two priors were done when the organization was called Digestive Health Specialists. The physical plant is very pleasant and conveniently located and the staff are courteous, professional, and highly competent at all levels of the encounter. The process is smooth and streamlined like clockwork and I feel like I'm getting excellent care there.
my second, another caring procedure,
I found the doctor very informative and helpful.
Appointment with Dr. Agrawal was excellent. Very kind and patient. Took time to clarify and answer questions. Very thorough and informative.
So comfortable. I was so nervous and stressed going to my procedure but when I arrived, I felt so welcomed. Dr Agarwal came and talked to me, I was so relieved and relaxed, I was taken to the procedure room and the team was so welcoming. Best experience I ever had. I hope I will have them again next time.
The procedure was done well. The prep was a mixed up problem. My computer and wifi were down so I got a copy of instructions from the clinic. They were wrong. Instead of a two-day prep, the instructions I was given ordered a three-day or “extended prep”. It was miserable, unnecessarily prolonged.
I would recommend that front desk personnel be informed regarding colonoscopy instructions because not all patients have access to online material.

The only place that is professional than any other medical place that I have been to since living here for 2 years in the state of Washington. The staff was very nice, which is rare here.
