Dr. Ausk is AWESOME!! I just met her in advance of my colonoscopy and she was so confident and personable, I felt totally at ease immediately. Though I have to go on the “5 year plan” for colonoscopies, not so bad so long as Dr. Ausk is the one taking care of me! (BTW, definitely get the “Gatorade colonoscopy mixture” if at all possible!!!)
Not only was Dr. Ausk awesome, all the nurses and techs were equally as amazing. They took great care of me, had me laughing from the get-go and throughout the procedure and even offered a bit of song and dance!!!

I have trouble with anesthesia and they really listened. Dr Ausk is excellent as well as the nurses. An easy experience.
I had a very positive experience. The very sweet nurses were kind and caring. Ben the anesthesiologist, was fun and efficient, and doctor Ausk who I just met was kind and knowledgeable. They were efficient, the facility was clean and smelled fresh, it was my first visit to their office and I would recommend them to friends and family.
Dr Ausk and her staff made the procedure as comfortable and pleasant as possible. She explained things well and have me confidence in her skills
Lovely looking facility. Minimal wait time. All questions to doctor answered . Did not feel rushed .Staff couldn't have been more comforting.
Efficient, courteous, great communication and care from reception/intake to recovery.
I had a great experience with Dr. Karlee Ausk. She is an excellent listener, very thorough in explaining details, and took the time to answer all my questions. Her positive and reassuring attitude made me feel confident and well cared for. After my appointment, I felt uplifted and grateful to have her as my doctor.
I was previously a patient of Dr. Rees Lui, who was also an amazing doctor. When she retired, she referred me to Dr. Karlee Ausk, and I couldn’t be happier with the transition. I truly appreciate the care and professionalism she brings to her practice. Highly recommend!

As a patient who often stumps physicians due to the complexity of my disorders, Dr. Ausk is one who goes the extra mile and a half to discover what I need. Truly grateful.
