Insurance and BillingVery professional amb surg office. Dr Hughes is excellent. Staff very helpful. The only thing I did not like at the office was signing the medicare coverage waiver for anesthesiologist at the time of sign in at the front desk. That is not something you hit a patient with at the last moment of sign in.
Dr Hughes and his staff were amazing. Everyone in the facility made my visit almost painless. It was a great experience. I would recommend Arizona Digestive health above any other endoscopy clinic. Thank you all very much for the superb care.
The staff was very nice and caring. This was my second visit to them and my experience was excellent both times. My care here was outstanding.
Dr. Trivedi and staff were very patient focused and caring. Mary Kay, my intake nurse made me very comfortable before the procedure and was so personable. The nurses in the suite were also accommodating to my needs. Sam, my discharge nurse, was very patient and friendly as well as helpful. The only reason I'm not giving a 5 star review is due to the excessive paperwork involved at intake, much of which could have been taken care of previously to avoid waiting for the procedure. All in all, I would recommend the Arizona Digestive Institute for your endoscopy experience.
