Meet Your Doctors
I went in for an endoscopy and was absolutely terrified because I have a huge fear of needles. The nurses, anesthesiologist and Dr G were absolutely wonderful. quite possibly the best experience I've had at a doctors office. The nursing staff was extremely kind and got everything right on the 1st try. Kudos to them.
The facility is beautiful and everyone is friendly and professional. Nathan (RN) was excellent starting my IV and making sure I was warm and comfortable. The procedure team greeted me and explained everything. Dr. Malamood is the very best! I will not hesitate to use this facility again. I feel lucky to have access to such a skilled and friendly medical team!
