Patient Reviews
Jul 26, 2022
Dr. Dennis Choat is a wonderful doctor and a great man. He performed a reverse colonoscopy without complications. His attention to detail in explaining the procedure prior to surgery was excellent. Post-surgery care was top notch. Entire office staff was great. Surgery was in October of 2019, still fine today (2022).
