A very strange visit with a person called a "professional" a guy that works for a medical office that is a LLC (limited liability company ),very disrespectful ,contradicting recomandations made before at my previous colonoscopy.Apparently his expertise is being a "primary investigator "at FRI.I did not know after 2 colonoscopies that I had previosly,I am at risc of getting A punctured colon.When I said that it can only happend due to an accident Or maybe lack of knowledge of performing a colonoscopy, he was trying to tell me that I do not need one. I sensed a bad vibe and said that if he do not want to perfom a colonoscopy on me I will go to a different place,and he suggested I should just do that.Avoid if you can.

Too rushed. I guess he takes too many patients in a day. Not what I want in a doctor.

I would give this place a higher review, but my wait time was insane. My appointment was at 9:45am- I didn’t see the doctor until almost 11:45am. I hope this doesn’t happen again or I’ll have to find a new doctors office. Also my husband had an appointment at 11:00 and he waited until 11:45am to be seen. We ended up seeing the doctor together so we could just get out of the office quicker.

The doctor is great. I do not like that there is no direct line to his office. The answering service is curt and unhelpful. His new location is very far for me.
