"Dr. Lasardo did an excellent job, explaining what procedure we would be doing if there was any problems, he would let me know how to follow up and the procedure went well just like he had said it was"
"My experience at The Endo Center was excellent! First let me say that the pre-procedure communication in the weeks before was the best. On the day, Jenny at registration was pleasant and helpful. Kelli RN, admitted me, got me settled, and skillfully started my IV. I joked that I was even looking forward to jello after. As soon as I woke up I was given juice and crackers. Ann, anethetist, listened to my concerns and provided some extra comfort measures. RNs Denise and Jen and Tech, Nadine were reassuring with a sense of humor too. I felt comfortable and safe. Dr. Losurdo provided clear explanations before the procedure and after. A nice, cheerful lady wheeled me out and I didn't catch her name but she pleasantly sent me home. This an excellent, professional, compassionate, team! I'm 80 years old and I've seen enough others to give my highest recommendation!"
"Overall excellent experience with GI Alliance and Dr Losurdo. From office administrator to preop and procedural team they were all welcoming and went above and beyond my expectation. This is why I went there and will continue to do so next time"

"I have been impressed by the professionalism of Dr. Losurdo‘s office from the very first meeting and through my whole colonoscopy experience. I have been notified and reminded to do all of the necessary steps for a successful procedure. The materials were available with enough lead time and any questions were answered by a phone call. I would highly recommend this doctor and his office! Thank you for a very positive experience of a very uncomfortable procedure."
"From the moment I stepped into the office, I knew it was going to be a good experience. From the registration person (Celina) to the recovery nurse (Johana) to the procedure nurse (Denise) and tech (Daphne) to Dr Lorsurdo, they were all very knowledgeable, helpful, caring and kind. This being my first time, the experience was so simple because all these people made me feel comfortable. The prep was another story and if you can get past that the rest is as easy as can be. Great office and staff, nurses and doctors. I highly recommend this place. You will not be disappointed."
"Great experience for a not so pleasurable procedure. Friendly staff & on-time appointment. Dr Losurdo, Anna the anesthesiologist, and my nurse were great. I got wheeled into procedure room, oxygen mask on, IV turned on and boom……I’m in the recovery room without feeling a thing. If you like coffee, they had the best medium roast….. I got another cup to go. I am fine waiting another 5 years though."

"The entire procedure went very smoothly. Dr. Losurdo didn't have to explain much to me because this wasn't my first colonoscopy, which I appreciated very much. If I had a complaint it wasn't about the procedure, it was about the prep. I know that this is the worst part of a colonoscopy, but starting the prep late in the day before the procedure made it run well into the early morning of hours the day of the procedure. Small problem but worth mentioning."
"Wonderful doctor, he listens to your concerns, you don’t feel rushed, very thorough, kind, understanding, then he lets you know what he feels is the best solution he would like you to do, then he gives you a printout & explains everything & then he ask that you call him back in 2 weeks to let him know if there are any changes, then decides if you need a follow up or possibly test.In my case I wasn’t rushed into any big decision. Great experience"
