The thought of a colonoscopy--even just a screening one because of family history--can invoke fear in a person. So I really appreciated being referred to Dr. Sundberg (Internal Med/Gastroenterology) for this procedure. Dr. Sundberg was personable and professional. He explained exactly what the procedure entailed and reassured me that he would give me the most up-to-date medications to lessen the discomfort. Additionally, the pre-procedure fluids I had to take were 1/5 the quantity my poor father had to take per another doctor. Preparing for the procedure was then a breeze for me. The doctor's staff provided detailed steps for me to follow to ensure the easiest procedure, and they worked. It was nothing to fear at all! Afterwards, Dr. Sundberg personally discussed the results and explained carefully my responsibility for future screenings. Overall, he presented as a confident but caring professional.
