I had a great experience at Middlesex Digestive Health. I had to do a 3 day prep for my colonoscopy because of my previous unsuccessful preparations. The 3 day prep worked and I was able to have clear bowel movements. The doctor and the team were very professional.
Everyone was very friendly and attentive. However, i would have liked it to be a little more private. I was in a big room with a dozen or so beds only separated by a curtain so I could hear everyone’s conversations with the doctors and nurses and everyone could hear mine and that made me a little uncomfortable.
Middlesex Digestive Endoscopy staff were very efficient and caring. It is nice to have a place in the suburbs you can go to so close to home that does endoscopy.

Great service, very professional and friendly experience. Kept me informed at all times throughout my visit. While not looking forward to my next colonoscopy I’ll certainly be back here when I next need one.
