Colonoscopies aren't exactly what you look forward to. The prep for one is the worst part -- even…read morethe jar of pickles in the refrigerator look delicious to you the day before your procedure. Having said that, the nurses and doctor were great. Couldn't have been more friendly. They were fantastic! They were engaging, friendly and make you comfortable in an otherwise uncomfortable situation. After all, you are about to expose your butt to an attractive nurse. Even then, they complimented me on mine. I think I heard one say, "What an a$$!" Ok, I made that part up. But on a serious note, I wouldn't exactly take a colonoscopy over a trip to Disneyland, but if you have to have one, this is the place to go. They were great! Can't wait for my next one in ten years. That's actually a lie. Like I said, I have no memory of the procedure itself, once they inject the sedative, it's the Suprep and magnesium citrate you have to drink to 'clean' your colon out and liquid diet, prior to the procedure. Once you get through that and make it to the surgery center, you're home free. Everything else is smiling, friendly nurses and no memory of the procedure itself. You 'go to sleep', wake up and go home.

Absolutely unacceptable billing practices…read more I was overcharged for a preventive screening -- something that is 100% covered by insurance. Not "maybe covered." Not "partially covered." Fully covered. And instead of automatically correcting the overpayment once insurance processed the claim, this office just... keeps the money unless you call and demand it back. Let that sink in. They will not issue refunds automatically. The patient has to catch the mistake and call. How many patients never even realize they were overcharged? How many people assume the office knows what it's doing and trust the bill? This office handles insurance claims every single day. They know how preventive services are billed. They know preventive screenings are covered at 100%. Pretending confusion or acting like this is some unpredictable insurance mystery is insulting. This isn't a rare coding anomaly -- it's routine, standard billing. Patients shouldn't have to audit their own medical bills to make sure a provider isn't sitting on their money. If you overcharge, you fix it. Automatically. Period. If you go here, scrutinize every single bill and compare it to your EOB. Apparently, that's the only way to make sure you're not quietly overpaying.

Did not validate my concerns or questions, and made me feel so dumb, but yet, immediately scheduled me for a procedure. There's no patient portal and no email to contact anyone. However, when you have a procedure scheduled, they text and email you numerous times to make damn sure you bring in your payment or they will refuse the procedure. I can't honestly recommend this place. There are other options out there.

Mentioned, she was out of the office and that there could be another doctor that could see me so then I had the practice manager Victoria Herget call me and I was telling her how this doctor yells at patients in the appointments says that they're questions about their own medical stuff should not be asked in the appointment that that's not what it's for and so the practice manager Victoria Herget said that her yelling at me was just Dr bortuzzo HOT ITALIAN WAY OF SPEAKING so basically saying at that facility it's ok that patients get yelled at and blamed for the doctors or even assistance negligents so I would say , if you're going to see Dr bortuzzo or even going to this facility, you should record all interactions.Especially when practice managers call you too cause that's what I did and then I got a phone call saying they don't take my insurance anymore

He printed me over 50 pages of scientific literature and said it should go away. Luckily English is my first language and I have a science background (I don't mention the second part ever). Well guess what, I went to another G.I. got some blood tests, CT scan, and it was something bigger. If you want someone who will miss something, go to this doc. If you want someone who will listen to you, advocate for you, go to any other doctor. I only took this appointment because it was the first one available, I'd recommend anyone to wait for another doctor, even if it's another one in the same clinic. This was the first doctor that I actually left in tears. Do not waste your time.
