After a horrible experience with Dr. Agrawal at GW I was able to get in with Dr. Bolen at the Endoscopy Center of DC for a pre-colonoscopy exam. Dr. Okieffe performed the endoscopy and colonoscopy today and I must say, that place is so well managed. Clean, efficient, patient and the nurses have a wonderful bedside manner. This is what medicine practices should be like. I hate the medical industry because it's all about feeding the pharmaceutical industry and doctors don't seem to care about patients anymore. I cannot say they the doctors here were super warm and fuzzy but they were nice enough and professional. More importantly, they seemed to treat everyone the same. My procedures went fast and safely. I had a lot of anxiety about this process but they certainly helped with that by handling the process so well.

Taller People May Be at Increased Risk of Colon Cancer
A new meta-analysis from Johns Hopkins School of Medicine suggests taller people may be more likely to develop colon cancer than shorter people.
After being too afraid for years to go in for this procedure, I have had two colonoscopies over the past 5 years with Dr. Howard. This medical facility takes an experience that could be incredibly scary and embarrassing and turns it into a completely easy event. Dr. Howard and her whole team are wonderful; caring and understanding and the facility itself is clean and set up for privacy and efficiency. There is no pain or embarrassment involved and from check-in to check-out, both times I have been done in a couple of hours. I can not recommend this place enough- I am so grateful for the work they do.
