Dr. Atkinson and the nurses are very kind and explain everything thoroughly. It is nice to feel genuinely cared for.
Everything was orderly, efficient and fast. My visit went well. No problems. Very satisfied with my visit!! Thank you!!!
Everyone including the doctor made me feel very very comfortable.
I had some issues since I previously had Blue-Cross-Sheild insurance. Apparently they still had by old insurance policy and would not approve my procedure. The first time I resolved this with the receptionist only to have to revisit it again with a different receptionist. Notes should be entered into my chart to avoid this problem. The nurses and prep staff were excellent !

According to an article in the New York Times, current events are turning up the heat when it comes to heartburn. More Americans are using prescription and over-the-counter heartburn medicine to manage stress and reflux, resulting in nationwide shortages of acid reducers.
Staff was very friendly and conscientious of safety with the Pandemic. The staff continually checked to see if I had any questions, make sure I understood the procedure and make sure I was comfortable.
