What They Are Saying
I was very pleased with the center.
Dr Tocco and their team took the time to explain everything clearly, ensuring I felt comfortable and informed. The procedure itself was handled with great skill, and the recovery was easier than I expected. Their kindness, attention to detail, and expertise made what could have been an intimidating experience feel much less stressful.
I highly recommend Dr Tocco to anyone in need of a GI specialist. If you’re looking for a doctor who truly cares about their patients and provides top-notch medical care, this is the one!
Everyone very attentive and engaged, very good experience under the circumstances.
Can't say enough good things about Dr. Weber. Very good explanation of procedures and he truly listens, and cares.
I usually see Nicolette VanMaldeghem in between visits with Dr. Bakken and she is excellent as well. I have nothing but good things to say about this practice.
Sharon Collins
This by no means affects my review, but my appointment time was 9:40am and I was not called back until 10:40ish. Maybe I missed the “fine print” and that should have been expected, but in regards to those with some anxiety, that hour wait with your thoughts and worries is a little tough. Just my two cents.
Thanks for the great care!
But, what impressed me was the staff in the office. The TEAM (receptionist, the nurse who checked me and made me ready for the procedure, Anesthesiologist and nurse in the procedure room, the recovery room nurse, the PA who called me later in the day to check-up on me) showed me such care and compassion. It made me feel as if I was the most important patient that they would encounter.
It is obvious that these professionals love what they are doing. They love helping others. That made all the difference to me.
Thank you.
Definitely made what is in general not something you look forward to, very easy to get thru.
I definitely would recommend this practice for your digestive heslth.
