Nobody really wants a colonoscopy but if you have to get one see Dr Paredez! His entire staff was professional, attentive, courteous, and made it a comfortable experience.

Honestly such a greart experience. It was my first time being put under for anastesia and i was really nervous about it. But when i got there, everyone was so nice and comforting. I felt like i was going in for a spa treatment, they tucked me into my bed with a blanket and made sure i was at the right positioning and comfortable. They answered all of my questions, and let me know what to expect. I dont even remember going to sleep and then next thing i remember i was waking up back in the recovery room with someone to greet me and let me know how it went. 10/10 would recommend, all of my fears of going under for any operation are gone and funny enough i almost look forward to going back for my next one!
