Dr. Rose visited with me before the procedure to explain what the process would entail and answered all of my questions. All of the staff members were cordial and helpful. My discharge nurse was great. Check in wad easy as well. I did notice that the area they have to work in is quite small.

What struck me most about this experience was the genuine care and consideration in every team member interaction, from checkin thru prep, procedure and post, all were kind, thoughtful and professional throughout. It made a challenging day for me go smoothly and more confidently.

Amazing and caring medical team. An insurance glitch caused my appointment to be cancelled without my knowledge. I showed up fully prepped for screening colonoscopy with no appointment and Dr Rose’s group saw me anyway. They really went above and beyond to save my day.

Let's be honest, no one wants a colonoscopy... but if you need one the staff and Dr. Rose do a good job. I was made comfortable. Everything was clearly explained from beginning to end. I also appreciated the touch of humor when you first walk in.

It seems kind of weird to describe a colonoscopy as "fun," but it kind of was! The nurses were so kind, and Dr. Rose was professional but had a great sense of humor. The anesthesia was a cakewalk.
