"Everything was great in the way the staff and the doctor took care of me during the procedure, but I never heard Dr Freidman with the results of my colonoscopy"
"Went in for routine colonoscopy. Everything ran like a well oiled machine. Dr. Friedman and staff were thorough, so nice and made the experience as pleasant as possible"
"Dr Leung is such a good person and dr! Very knowledgeable and friendly! I’m pleased with my experience!"
"this doctor and his staff are great. having a colonoscopy is not the funnest procedure to prepare for but as far as the procedure goes this office and his staff are very caring respectful and clean. I have a condition that I have to have a colonoscopy every year to two years probably for the rest of my life and as far as I'm concerned as long as he's in business I won't look elsewhere for my specific medical needs"
"Dr.Friedman was very approachable and quick to diagnose my condition. I was suffering for 14 days with terrible acid reflux and high BP. Doctor quickly got to the root cause by performing an endoscopy. Endoscopy was performed seamlessly and observations explained thoroughly. Before the endoscopy, I was very nervous and doctor provided the confidence and support needed."
"Very kind and informative. I was nervous about my colonoscopy and endoscopy, the staff at the facility were just as nice and kept me safe. Always a positive experience with whenever I contact his office as well. God Bless him and his staff. It’s not everyday you have a positive experience either everyone involved in a surgical setting."
"My colonoscopy went great. The staff (from the reception to the nurses, Dr. Friedman, to the procedure staff) were kind, courteous and very professional. The facility was clean and modern and I felt at ease from check-in to check-out. I highly recommend using Dr. Friedman and his staff."
"Dr Leung was very polite and friendly, he explained very clearly the results of my procedure. I would not go anywhere for this type of procedure highly recommended. Thank you doctor."
"My first colonoscopy screening w/ Dr. Leung did not take long. He’s very professional and so is his staff. My procedure was all done a little over an hour. I would definitely recommend Dr. Leung."
"As good as en experience you can have for a colonoscopy. I’d recommend him."
"I had a smooth experience with Dr. Friedman at Texas endoscopy. I had a colonoscopy done recently. Didn't experience any discomfort during the visit. Everything went well. It didn't take that long. Spent just a couple of hours at the office. I was able to recover in 2 days post the procedure."
"It was great! Professional and nice person. I had a colonoscopy last week."
"Doctor Kevin Leung is an excellent Dr. Very tentative and patient."
"Dr. Friedman was very outgoing and friendly during my pre-op office visit. He answered all my questions with warmth and empathy. The day of the colonoscopy procedure, Dr. Friedman and his team did a great job before and after the surgery making me feel at ease. I highly recommend Dr. Friedman!"
"With such an uncomfortable procedure the office was pleasant and made me feel comfortable from the point of entering the office to being ready for discharge. I like how the doctor gave me a refresh of what they found last appointment and what to expect with this appointment. Thank you and see you in 10 years!!"
"Very professional and had a very good check up, Thanks"
"I have been to Dr. Leung a couple of times and would go no where else I highly recommend him."
"Thank You for being so thorough and professional You and your staff are the best 👌 I highly recommend you 😊"
"As great an experience as one can have getting a colonoscopy. This was my first time. Dr. Friedman and his team were pretty AMAZING!! Not only did he explain the procedure in detail, he also answered all my questions. Most importantly, they were incredibly efficient! They didn't have me waiting for hours. My husband brought his laptop to work while he waited. He didn't get any work done. I was in and out that quickly. I would highly recommend Dr. Friedman."
"Dr. Friedman conducted a colonoscopy for me which went very smoothly. His support team were super friendly and knowledgeable. The waiting and preparation took about 1 hour, while the actual procedure lasted 35 minutes. I felt perfectly fine after the procedure and was back to usual routine within couple of hours. Highly recommended"
"I’ve gone to Dr Friedman for a long time. He’s treated treated me for ulcerative colitis for years. I trust him. My total health is and has been his primary concern since I started going to him. He’s the best."
"Every staff member was excellent and the process was incredibly efficient! I believe this was my 3rd colonoscopy with this team and they have all been as positive as an experience as this procedure could be."
"Organized, professional, and delightful staff with clean facility! Dr. Freidman and his CRNA, nurses, etc were thorough and provided some humor during what would normally be considered an "unpleasant" experience (first colonoscopy)!!"
"Washington Gastroenterology at the Federal Way location provided excellent services and high professional standard of care, from the reception desk to the admitting nurse, procedural team, anesthesiologist and specialist physician, Dr. Kevin Leung. Everything was explained to me in detail while I was being carefully screened and evaluated during check-in and prep for my procedures, and and I was given full opportunity to ask questions as needed. The entire staff was both professional and caring. My procedures went smoothly and I was made comfortable during this time. Post-procedure, I was attended to carefully and given high quality care and monitoring, with ongoing instructions given for easing my recovery. A nursing staff member explained my written post-procedure packet, then Dr. Leung came in to debrief me further on the procedure and initial results, and to follow up on a previous discussion of my digestive system care, medication and lifestyle. I will receive a written letter shortly with the lab results of the samples taken from my procedure, and a follow-up office visit has already been scheduled. I am highly satisfied with my experience at Washington Gastroenterology at Federal Way, and would unreservedly recommend this staff to others."
"The clinic provided a lot of communication about procedure preparation and called a couple of times prior to the appointment to inquire about possible COVID symptoms, mask requirements, and answer any questions. The staff and doctor was professional, friendly and thorough. Dr Leung offered good information on procedure importance."
"This was my first colonoscopy, and Dr. Friedman and his staff were wonderful. Dr. Friedman took his time to explain everything to me and the actual procedure was done in top-notch professional manner. I couldn't be more pleased with how everyone did their jobs,."
"Just had my first colonoscopy. Would highly recommend Dr. Lung!"
"One of the most professional doctors I have had. Four years ago I had some stomach pains and Dr. Friedman was not one to just throw meds at me. He offered up an Endoscopy to take a look before he could make an accurate diagnosis. Glad I did, he discovered I had the H-Pylori bacteria, which can become very serious if not taken care of. He put me on antibiotics and I was back to normal. Fast forward present, I was experiencing bad acid reflux, so I went back to Dr. Friedman. He could tell I was worried about having hpylori again. He offered to start work earlier the next morning and squeeze me in for an endoscopy. Who does that? A great doctor does that! He found a polyp in my esophagus and removed it. Biopsy also came back negative for h-pylori and life is good again. Great bedside manor. He's thorough in explaining everything you want to know and answered all my questions. Office staff are also extremely helpful and friendly."
