Learn MoreWonderful, caring and compassionate doctor. This was our first visit and procedure with Dr. Ghaith. He was kind and explained everything. He has a great bed-side manner and made us very comfortable. The procedure was in the Troy office and was on time and quick. The front desk was friendly and efficient. The office is very well run. Would highly recommend Dr. Ghaith and his team.
I had to have my first colonoscopy today and was quite nervous! The entire staff and Dr. Canon took great care of me. Highly recommend him and his team to anyone looking for a great GI!
The communication and care here were above and beyond. From clear and frequent pre-appointment instructions, to the check-in process, then the procedure itself, and aftercare, I felt like the staff cared and was there to support me. It will be awhile before I need my next visit, but I will definitely choose this practice again. Also, I will refer anyone who needs a colonoscopy to this location. Thank you for the wonderful care and making a stressful procedure easy to navigate.
I have horrible medical anxiety and had never had a endoscopy before. Every single person I encountered from the front desk to the RNs, to my actual doctor, were fantastic. They made me feel so much more comfortable with everything. Highly recommend this place.
