If you have a colonoscopy this is the place to be. The staff and doctors were very nice people. I felt like I was in great hands.

My experience before and during the colonoscopy was excellent and I would give it a 5 star but not so with the after effects. I woke up immediately with extremely sore throat and a squeaky voice. 3 weeks later the sore throat is gone but still have squeaky voice and gets worse the more I talk. I made 2 attempts at getting an explanation for this from the doctors office but given a short answer that they did nothing to my throat and never heard such a thing. I just know I was fine and then I wasn’t. It was noticed immediately by my daughter when picking me up 3 hours later after leaving me there. I did see on the internet that some people have experienced this and was thought to be acid going up throat and irritating vocal cords that can take weeks to heal. It sure would have been nice to have had such information from a doctor rather than having to do the no-no of googling.

Dr. Choski and staff are the best. Would never go anywhere else.

Why are Hispanics Less Likely to Screen for Colon Cancer?
Colon cancer screening rates are significantly lower among Hispanic Americans over 50, and Hispanic Americans are more likely to be diagnosed with colon cancer in advanced stages.
Nurse Jackie was fabulous and took great care of me as did the rest of the staff. However, my appointment was at 12:30 and I didn’t get back for my procedure until 3:30. That added 3 hours to my no food or drink directions. By the time I left I was extremely dehydrated and felt horrible. My husband stopped and got me food and drink as soon as we left but it’s hard to recover from 15 hours without fluids. A short wait is understandable because you can’t always predict extenuating circumstances. A 3 hour wait is extreme considering all of the patients there are fasting at a minimum.
