Outstanding and consummate professionals. Minimal waiting time, in my case for a colonoscopy, not more than 20 minutes for in-processing to include interviews by the nursing staff in pre-op. The entire staff from the receptionist and the nursing staff were courteous, totally professional, friendly and with a great sense of humor. This is my fourth colonoscopy with doctor Barberevich who has always been a complete professional with a friendly and courteous manner, as I am sure his colleagues are. I have no reason the go anywhere else in the future.

I love dr costanzo! He has seen me several times in hospital and office and has a great bed side manor! He is Very educated and has a fantastic personality to put me at ease with this awful disease (crohns) I have and will continue to recommend him for a gi doctor! The office staff is another story!! I dread making appointments or dealing with them for anything! They are really hard to get ahold of and once you do they are mean and make whatever reason you call for more difficult or worse! They use street slang and are very unprofessional! I can’t understand why these people would work in a health field because by the time I hang up with them my blood pressure is higher and they make me sick to my stomach EVERYTIME! To think they deal with people who are far worse then me (cancers) and have to deal with this is just ridiculous😥 Great doctor! Awful office staff!!
