Reviews
My experience was good. Staff was very nice.
A very professional staff. The stay was fun. The professional service from each and every one in the staff awesome. The best prep instructions in everywhere. I am glad I met Endoscopy Center - East. My next appointment is in seven years and it is fair to say I will miss sharing time with them but, if I am OK I am Ok.
Excellent
Quick and easy.
Dr Chen was very kind and listened to all my concerns very nice facility.
