I showed up and the lady that checked me in was extremely rude and “almost” acted like it was a chore to actually do her job. I find it very hard to accept that someone could be so rude when something might be going on with you. Very unprofessional. Once I got in the back, those that took care of me were very professional. I met with Dr. Krishnan for less than a minute and it didn’t seem like he wanted to speak with me about my issues. It almost felt as if “how many procedures can I do this day”. Procedure went fine. But the last colonoscopy I had done, the Dr. actually came back and talked to me about my results. Not Dr. Krishnan. The only communication I had was with a nurse. I only met with Dr. Krishnan for a very brief period of time. He NEVER once asked about my symptoms. Once again, It felt like “how many procedures can I get done today”. At least my last Dr. seemed to genuinely cared about what might be happening. Not very impressed with this clinic other than the nurses that… took care of me.
