Patient Reviews
Jan 31, 2025
Had a colonoscopy yesterday by Dr John Southerland and when asked by follow up pone call I said I'm great! As if it never happened. The team was like a well oiled machine. Each stopped up when it was their turn to go forward with next step Being very punctual, responsible with verifying information asking what they needed to and it was control motion. Dr Southernland did his part in talking to me before going under. They were all very connected & engaged. Thank you Dr Southerland and your great team!! Will highly recommend you!
