I am not sure where all the negative reviews are coming from. My colonoscopy was scheduled very quickly only a week and half out and that was likely because I requested a female doctor. My voicemails were returned promptly on the same day, The nurses I spoke to were very friendly and mostly helpful. On the day of my appointment I was taken back promptly and the procedure itself was very fast! This was my first go around with getting a colonoscopy, I was actually terrified and had experienced extreme anxiety the entire week before my procedure. I was very nervous about getting sedated for my colonoscopy, I had spoken to the nurse On the day of my appointment, about being nervous about sedation, I asked the nurse checking me if I had to have sedation. She told me that NO IT IS NOT REQUIRED, its a personal preference! Dr. Ashley Evans and her nurses were amazing helping me get through my first colonoscopy without any sedation or pain meds! It was a little uncomfortable in some spots/going around corners however very tolerable. I would recommend anyone who is nervous about sedation to at least try the procedure without it. You won't regret it and the staff are so comforting and helpful in getting you through it! Thank you so so much.
