- MSMarianne Smalley3 days ago3.0Could not do colonoscopy because they do not have an ultrasound machine and I need it in order to get an IV started.
- GGGabrielleJun 24, 20261.0Tired of the suffering mentally and physically. I just called to let them know my son and I know it’s not important now. People wanna keep blowing me off because Missouri has been neglecting the 100% of medical attention. I said I have a blockage. I have an infection that’s been in my abdomen for over two months, my symptoms are extremely alarming. Can’t take any hot water on my body. Can’t have my dog laying up against me. Can’t even put on a sweatshirt without paying and I’m being ignored. I said I have an infection in my intestines, I am writing this review because when it comes down to what I’m suffering, people are in trouble. You should have a sense of urgency. I deserve to have a sense of urgency with the way I’m being neglected. I’m not a machine. I do not take batteries to function. I am a human being. I’m tired of starving and not being able to go to the bathroom. I’m pooping yellow mucus. I have an infection. And I’m waiting for the lady from Jefferson County to reach back out to me. She just left me a message yesterday for hospital standards with how the way Missouri is neglecting me with my very serious symptoms and the way I feel physically with two organs left that I need you treat others the way you want to be treated. People are gonna pay because I never should’ve had to suffer to this extent, and the proof is in my intestines. !!!!!!!
- GCG CAug 24, 20235.0Friendly people, didn't have to wait too long.
- ARA RDec 18, 20191.0You’re greeted by a closed window and an unfriendly front desk receptionist. You’re seated in a waiting room littered with advertisements for unnecessary procedures, most of which having nothing to do with gastric health. You’re seen by a practitioner. Someone who has no speciality in the field for which the are practicing. You’re not able to make an appointment with a MD because “they only do procedures”. The practitioner that I saw was flippant and dismissive. Avoid this office.
- DHDonald HarrisAug 22, 20191.0Front office is nice, but there is a limit to what can be done to cover for the revolving door war at the clinician level. Run!!
Frequently Asked Questions About Center For Gastrointestinal Health
What preparation is required?
For the procedure to be thorough and accurate, your colon needs to be entirely clean.
How do I prepare for the colonoscopy?
Detailed preparation instructions will be provided to you at the time your appointment is scheduled.
What about my current medications?
Review your preparation information sheet for specific guidance. Essential medications, including those for your heart, may be taken on the morning of your procedure with a small amount of water.
What are clear liquids?
Clear liquids include water, coffee or tea, strained fruit juices without pulp such as apple juice and white grape juice, soft drinks, sports drinks like ginger ale, cola, Sprite, 7-Up, and Gatorade. Low-sodium, fat-free chicken or beef bouillon or broth are acceptable. Lemon or lime Jello without fruit or toppings is allowed. Hard candies are permitted. Avoid anything containing red or purple coloring.
Why can't I have red or purple coloring?
These colorings may leave residue in your bowel that can be mistaken for blood.
How soon after the procedure will I return to full activity?
You should be able to resume your normal activities, including driving, the following day.
Why do I need a colonoscopy for colon cancer screening if I have no symptoms?
Symptoms of colon cancer typically don't appear until the disease has advanced. Since colon cancer is the second-leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States, screening is critically important.
How long will the procedure take?
The colonoscopy itself typically lasts 30-45 minutes. However, with preparation time and recovery, you and your escort should plan to be at our facility for approximately 90-120 minutes.
I take antibiotics before dental procedures, will I need to take antibiotics before my procedure?
The American Heart Association has established specific guidelines for determining when antibiotics are necessary before endoscopic procedures. These guidelines may be different from those your dentist follows for dental work. If you have concerns about whether you need pre-procedure antibiotics, please discuss this with our office. Antibiotics are typically required for patients with artificial heart valves.
Is the procedure videotaped?
While the images from your procedure are displayed on a television monitor, we don't have the ability to record video of procedures.
