Patient Reviews
Jul 29, 2024
Had my 2nd colonoscopy, 1st with Dr. Watkins at CaroMont Health in Belmont. Honestly was concerned by the neg reviews too late to cancel my appt so understatedly stressed and nervous more than usual for the procedure. However, my experience was excellent from check-in to the nursing and support staff to the pre-op visit by Dr. Watkins who was perfectly reassuring and professional. Had issues with the IV line due to dehydration from the prep but nursing staff were so kind and supportive and quickly resolved the issue. Afterwards Dr. Watkins came to give the clean bill of health and was just as professional and cordial. All in all very appreciative of the care I received.
