Patient Reviews
Dec 30, 2023
Like many people, I was scared from colonoscopy, and tried to avoid it for many years.I am 62, and my last(and only)colonoscopy was almost 20 years ago!So I decided it is about time to do it. My friend recommended Dr. Joel Sach. I went to a consultation with him about 2 weeks ago, and really liked him immediately. He was very kind, professional, attentive and knowledgeable.He answered all my questions with kindness and a lot of patient. I booked the colonoscopy for today, at Valley Endoscopy Center.Everyone here was so kind, attentive, polite and caring. Dr. Sach was EXCELLENT! The procedure (which I was so afraid of) was easy and fast. Dr. Sach was so gentle and kind. I didn't feel anything, it didn't hurt after, and I went home grateful I found him.He is not only kind and knowledgeable, he is very professional, which is VERY important in a procedure like this. If you are scared like I was, do not hesitate. Book Dr. Joel Sach. It can save your life.
