My experience was pleasant. The doctor was above and beyond.
I feel very safe and well cared for, not only by my doctors but by all the staff. The care is excellent; they know how to treat patients very well, and I'm always seen promptly. Thank you for such great service.
I have always been satisfied with the care at this hospital; everyone is very professional. Thank you for taking the time to provide the best possible care.
Everything went very well. I'm happy with Dr. Churrango. He's a good professional. I have no complaints whatsoever. Thank you.
Dr Churrango and his staff were very nice and professional. They took their time with me and didn't rush me and told me to feel free to contract them if I had any further questions. Dr. Churrango took his time and explained my upcoming procedure to me and why it was important. It made me feel more comfortable about my upcoming colonoscopy appointment. They were great. ??
