I’d like to recommend Springfield Associates for the colonoscopy screening. The nurse, tech, nurse anesthetist, and, especially Dr Boynton, we’re very kind and professional. Best of all, I don’t remember a single thing about the actual procedure!

My dad had the best treatment here. Both the intake and discharge nurses were super patient, respectful, and kind to him. Dr. Arraya is very nice but straight to the point, also patient and respectful. Not sure we could have found a better team for his procedure.
