I completely trust Dr. Harmston with my colonoscopies. Been going to him for approx. 20 years. Nice guy and professional. Answers any and all questions. Staff is great too. I’d definitely recommend him for colonoscopies.

I met Harmston in the procedure room at IMC. Not impressed! He has since tried to manipulate my only being able to see him?! I will not return to him and do not want him as a future provider. He is interfering with my healthcare

The procedure went very smooth. Little wait time, took me back, prepped for the procedure. As i do not like needles, the nurse that gave me the IV was very good. I did not feel anything. They said almost within 5 minutes of when i would be ready to go home. All in all i am very satisfied with my care. Doctor must must have been good, i did not feel a thing.

The sign in and wait time was quick. The admit nurse was informative and very competent. I had surgical notes from two Nov surgeries which were thoroughly read and discussed with me by the Doctor prior to my procedure and afterwards as it pertained to my results. Having had this procedure done over 20 yrs now I couldn't have been more pleased with the Doctor, staff and facility.
