I had my colonoscopy today and it was a very good procedure. There was no pain or discomfort at all. Dr Coffey and the nurses were very comforting and professional. They all had great attitudes and were comforting to be around. Thank you for your service in the medical profession. God bless you, Vernon Peck!
