A big THANK YOU to Ruby, Dr. Darby, Sharon, Janice (CRNA), Katina and Derlene for their compassionate care and support! Prior to receiving my Colonoscopy on May 24th, I was beyond terrified about the procedure because my mother recently passed from Colon Cancer. However, ALL of the staff at East Bay Endosurgery Center exceeded my expectations of medical care with warmth and understanding. From my initial call to the office about concerns to the very end of my procedure, they listened to my fears and reassured me each step of the way. Thanks again for everything!
