Didn’t seem willing to patiently answer my questions before a colonoscopy. Bedside manner wasn’t great from him and his whole team.

Sep-2022
Getting the appointment was a little difficult - hence the 4 star rating - I called as a new patient nearly a year ago - but I’m attributing that to COVID - office cancelled my 1st appt - I cancelled my second. Finally almost a year later I had my colonoscopy!
Upon arrival at office - all the staff was very pleasant. Procedure was on time. Dr & staff explained things and were open to questions. (The prep was worse than the procedure - as usual!) I would definitely recommend him to friends or family.

The staff was amazing. I felt as though I was getting berated for being overdue for my screening. I didn’t feel as though I needed to explain I lost my parents and my husband became disabled over the last 3 years. Trying to navigate major life changes probably isn’t an excuse. I was there however, I don’t need to feel chastised by the Dr who is going to be working on me.
