Learn MoreI don’t normally write bad reviews but Dr. Eaker and his office off Renner rd should be shut down. The amount of disrespect and heartlessness shown by every employee I encountered was unacceptable. If your primary doctor has referred you to them, figure something else out. These people will leave you feeling horrified, violated and like a just another number. I saw another review say “I wouldn’t recommend this doctor to a dying spider!” And I firmly agree.
Friendly and knowledgeable personnel. They exceeded my expectations! I highly recommend Westglen Endoscopy Centter!
Went for my LAST colonoscopy here (I aged out of this test!) . The staff and the facility were amazing. The nurses were so kind and friendly. You can tell they enjoy working together. If you need to have this test, this is the place to go.
