Patient Reviews
Apr 06, 2024
Dr. Lam and his team were very detailed in the report for my Esophagastroscopy. The colon revealed (5) polyps. One was Pre-Cancerous. They are saving lives one day at a time. The prep was a bit rough for my symptoms, I used caution. Magnesium Citrate may have been better-not sure. Will likely return again in 2-3yrs. There seem to be less patients at this facility, easier in and out. Thank you Dr. and Team!
