Learn MoreEveryone was so very professional. If I ever have to have an endoscopic exam, I will come back. Thank you.
This was my first experience at an endoscopic facility; I believe I received the utmost care from the time I checked in. The entire staff was attentive and caring, answering all my questions- a special acknowledgement to Nicole, Monica, and Neddie, and one more individual whose name I can't remember in the procedural area, but she was equally kind. Last, but assuredly not least, I would like to thank Dr. Bajaj and his expertise and pleasant demeanor. I am truly grateful.
