Reviews
This was my first GI procedure with Dr Voaklander. She and her wonderful staff explained everything clearly, answered my all my weird little questions and gave a chuckle or two. Next thing I knew, I was done. I have no idea why I waited so long to get in and get screened, they made it easy.. even got a warm blankie after I got into the gown. The prep was no fun, but everyone in her office was sweet and professional.
Everyone was very caring and helped me due to how much pain I was in. The employees were very good and made sure I was taken care of.
Easy, breezy colonoscopy procedure. Rebecca was informative, kind and professional!
Dr. Voaklander is great! She has a calming, happy and friendly way about her that immediately put me at ease. She is also the very best GI in the valley and I'm confident in her knowlege and ability and I trust her completely.
Dr Voaklander and her team were absolutely the best.
