Learn MoreThis center runs like a swiss watch. The staff coordinate, communicate & excel in their jobs. Dr Rylander & his team made me feel comfortable & at ease, explained everything they were doing before doing it & the outcome. My IV nurse 💯 gold stars, 1stick not even a pinch and no bruising or tenderness after. Once awake Dr Rylander & anesthesiologist checked on me & explained the results of the procedure & what to expect. The recover team was outstanding. She was patient & compassionate. She reviewed recovery instructions, results & answered ?s. She contacted my ride & walked me to my car instead of just handing me off. She briefed us both of what to expect & with a great smile sent us on our way. I received a few texts from the center the next 2 days checking on me. Center staff texted & called days before my procedure to insure I got & understood prep instructions & what to bring that day. This is my 2nd time using this.center & highly recommend it.
Awesome experience for something not to fun to think about. Everyone in the center were helpful, professional and made this an easy process. The prep is the worst part. Highly recommend the Endoscopy Center. This was my second time using them.
Everyone is very professional. The nursing staff is very friendly, which helps puts patients more at ease. Didn't have to wait too awfully long past my scheduled appointment time. If I had one nit-pick, it's that only curtains separate the patients in the pre/post op area, and everyone can hear each others' business. But logistically it's tough to avoid without having fully separate rooms, so not that big of a deal. Overall, a positive experience with this center.
Clean facility, with a very polite and professional staff. Easy to find, and easy to access.

Very friendly and professional staff. This was my first time at the Center and I had no complications or complaints with the two procedures performed by Dr. Gomez. Highly recommend this facility.
