Patient Reviews
Jul 02, 2022
Dr.Chachu and her staff we’re wonderful. First time visit for a colonoscopy. They made me feel comfortable and explained everything in great detail. Her work was so good, I couldn’t tell I had anything done. I have great quality pictures from the procedure. Absolutely no pain or discomfort of any kind afterwards, I feel wonderful. I don’t know how often I have too have this done, but I will be requesting her ever time. She was the nicest and sweetest doctor I have ever meet.
