Highly recommend!

Patients only in the waiting area once you've checked in with the desk. Masks provided and is required upon entry. I felt really comfortable with their social distancing measures and the waiting area was very orderly and clean. Based on a friend's referral, I was here to meet with Dr. Mark Dobriner for my colon health check. He was highly recommended and has 20+ years experience in the Colon and Rectal care. He's also the Head Surgeon in this particular expertise. He was approachable and displayed empathy for my reason in having a consult. Everything was explained thoroughly in regards to the plan for my colonoscopy. There were many guidelines that he went over, along with an appointed nurse that provided me with a full informational packet regarding the pre-procedure prep I needed to follow. COVID PCR testing is still required three days before the procedure as well as a Rapid Test the day before. Keep that in mind when booking your appointment. The whole process of booking my first consult to the quick scheduling of my procedure, I felt that they wasted no time and that was very appreciated on my part. During the Pandemic, I noticed a big lag in appointment scheduling and response time in general for non emergencies so the ease ProHealth provided here gave me a sense of instant relief. Dr. Dobriner, along with my anesthesiologist Dr. Schreiber and my positive experience with Nurse Jenelle the day of, put me at ease for my first time procedure. I was calm going in, felt all my questions were answered and while I was worried about the outcome, the whole process was not stressful at all. I commend them on their service. And yes, it's true what they say, the Prep is worse than the procedure. Colon Health screening is important! Don't put it off people!

The ER, like most city ER's, was jammed. with all rooms and hallways filled with patients. The wait time was longer than it should have been for my condition unfortunately. The CT scan revealed a blocked small intestine. I was given anti-nausea and morphine. I stayed in the ER overnight and surgery was performed the next day by Dr. Kevin Pei with minimally invasive surgery. Dr. Pei discovered that I had an intussusception intestine. He removed 43cm of my small intestine and reattached it with staples. I was then moved upstairs to a private room in the Kimmel building. The care by the surgical team and nursing staff throughout my six-day stay was outstanding along with their state-of-the-art technology. The practice is recognized as one of the best in the country and I certainly believe this to be true.
