I felt very well taken care of. The nurse, anesthetist, doctor all came to speak to me to explain what I should expect. Once I was conscious again, I felt no discomfort. Very professional staff and I would recommend Raleigh Endoscopy Ctr!

Physician never introduced himself, he shook my hand when he released me but never even acknowledged my wife who was sitting beside me. All the care was very good and I had confidence in the staff.
