Reviews for Peninsula Endoscopy Center
"I had a colonoscopy there today...can't say enough good things about my experience from check in to check out. They were very organized, efficient, personable and calming. Great co ordination of processes . I interacted with alot of people, and all were personable and professional. Made what could have been a scarey experience not so at all."
"Excellent experience, the practice is highly organized, with useful email reminders and patient info as the appointment date gets closer. The appointment was on time, and the staff are friendly and expert, both in the office and the procedure area. The procedure area is sunny, spotless, and very attractive, a lot of PNW glass artwork on display. They make the experience as pleasant as possible."
"I highly recommend the medical staff and Dr. Agrawal at WAGI. I find them to be not only kind and considerate, but also very efficient and knowledgeable. I am so glad that they had been recommended to me when I needed to enlist digestive services into my health care."
"I have had several procedures done by Dr. Schwartz over the past four years, all with excellent outcomes. I have found him to be very professional and knowledgeable, while also being patient and communicative. I have every confidence in his care and expertise. The entire staff was kind and helpful, which makes every interaction feel calm and comfortable. I have the highest regard for this practice and would definitely recommend them to anyone seeking high quality gastroenterology care."

"I would highly recommend them, to anyone who has any kind of colon issues. My procedure was swift and very well preformed. All the staff was very professional and caring, the preparation packet was put together very professionally, for the patients to follow step by step."
"From the minute I walked in, to the minute I wobbled out, the entire staff did all they could to make the experience as pleasant as possible, which considering that a colonoscopy is not exactly at the top of anybody’s favorite experience list (right?), is really saying a lot. The staff, from Dr. Donner, to McKenzie, to the receptionist, to the nurses and anesthesiologist in the OR, and even other staff walking by, were professional, very friendly, and informative. The whole team obviously enjoy and take pride in what they do. Highly recommended."

"Entire staff along with Dr Sanay Agrawal were friendly, professional, informative, answering any questions while always providing a really calming bedside manner for their patients.

"This was the most comfortable uncomfortable experience I’ve ever had. So much so that I wanted to leave a review. No one is excited about a colonoscopy, especially the first one. From the very beginning their email interaction was great. They had very clear instructions and regular interaction as the day approached. The day of, nothing but kindness, understanding and complete professionalism. From the moment I stepped into their office, every single interaction was positive and assuring. I was so incredibly impressed. Even the office music was excellent! (Seriously, I forgot to asked about your playlist.) Bravo Peninsula Endoscopy Center. Bravo indeed."

"Dr. Donner and staff were amazing! Very professional and made my first time in an amazing experience! Staff from beginning to end was the best! Thank you everyone! 💯👏🙂"
"Everyone was very pleasant and informant every step of the way! They were also reassuring. If you take time to read the paperwork they send, you understand what is expected of you. A gentleman below obviously did Not read it as he seemed to be surprised re check in procedures. As a patient myself who has also been vaccinated, I appreciated the precaution and that it was not filled with extra people. My husband wanted to be with me but understood why. I also received a follow up call the following day to make sure I was doing well and asked if I had any questions for them. Thank you for your professionalism as well as your care during this crazy covid time."
"I had a lot of anxiety, but the staff was kind and knowledgeable and put me at ease. They listened to my irrational concerns with as much seriousness as I presented them, and I really appreciate them taking the extra time to help me understand what was happening."

"Dr. Agrawal and his medical staff were a pleasure, very professional and caring."
"The information they for being ready for the procedure was excellent so I could prepare myself properly. When I arrived they were very nice and felt like friends. The prep room was fine and the nurse who did what was needed did it smoothly and without any pain for me. I was out cold during the procedure and felt fine when I was awake again. Many thanks to them!"
"Very courteous and professional. The procedure was handled very well."
"Everything was well planned and very well done as far as the telehealth preliminary visit, and the actual procedure itself, on the day of, so 5 stars there. Only areas for improvement were that the 'prep kit' information (prep begins 3 days before the procedure) was not communicated ahead of time, so I had to call the office 4 days beforehand to remind them I had not yet heard from them; then picked the information up in person that afternoon. Also, it would have been helpful for the 20% pre-payment receipt (due the day of) to have specifically stated 'what' the payment was for (rather than just stating it was paid/approved), as this is detail required for approval of the funds thru an FSA CC account, or for reimbursement after the fact of same. I will add as well on the positive side that patient advisors were made available in off hours, including the weekend, for questions, and they did in fact reply in a timely manner. As such, I'd make the overall rating 4.5 or better...with a 5.0 on the patient care side, and a 3.5-4.0 on the administrative side."
