Learn MoreHave had many colonoscopies over the past 25 years but this was the easiest and most efficient of all of them. I appreciate Dr. Schultz detailed explanation of things following the procedure in addition to the care provided by him and Hannah prior to the procedure. Thank you!
I was reluctant to get checked out, but my brother died of colon cancer recently. I had three polyps removed and look forward to gettin checked out every three years. Besides the anesthesia, I couldn't even tell I had a procedure done. The prep before the surgery had me losing about ten pounds and got me to reduce my food in take and start exercising. This procedure saved my life!
The staff at CTEC is courteous, caring and efficient.
Excellent place for a procedure. Those nurses are on the ball….they get you in and out! Thank you.
