I just had a colonoscopy done a few weeks ago by Dr Farhad Sahebjam from Gastroenterology…read moreConsultants of Southwest Virginia, which my primary physician recommended I have done as a preventive measure since I'm older than 45 and have never had one done before. With all the myths going around about having a colonoscopy done, I was naturally a little nervous, just like many others probably are. But here at this Center everyone was so friendly and professional that by explaining the procedure and providing me with the knowledge of the advantages of having one done, rather than trying to avoid it, I looked forward to having one done. And Dr. Sahebjam was so kind and caring that he put me at ease the moment I first met him and provided me with the knowledge to understand the procedure and the benefits of it. If any polyps were found they could be removed, providing hope that everything would be alright. My insurance covered the payment for the whole procedure except.the copayment for seeing a specialist and the medications needed to prepare for it, which my CVS pharmacist helped me pay less for these by using a special program they had in which I write about in my CVS Pharmacy review. All the step of the way I was kept informed that it was covered and I wouldn't have to pay a cent. Naturally after reading the negative reviews I was worried but now I know better than to pay attention to them. The Center kept in touch continously with me via phone calls, emails, and text to make sure I didn't miss an appointment and in case I had any questions on the preparation procedure. I had an assigned person to keep in touch in case I had a question on the preparation for the procedure. The colonoscopy was performed at the Lewis Gale Medical Center in Salem, Virginia by Dr Sahebjam. I did have to drink a lot of water after I drank a medication mixed with water, but this made me thirsty enough that I easily drank the extra couple of glasses of water with no problem at all. And being without eating didn't seem to bother me much as I thought it would. A good friend of mine drove me to the Hospital on the morning of the procedure and waited for me there until it was finished. There I was treated very well and interviewed by several people, including hospital staff, nurses, anesthesiologist, and Dr Sahebjam. As soon as they brought me to the procedure room after I changed into hospital clothing, they put the anesthesia into my vein and an oxygen mask and immediately fell asleep that didn't feel a thing. I woke up to the call of my doctor who explained that everything had gone well and showed me the pictures. Since I didn't have any polyps and the results were normal he recommended that I didn't have to have another one done until 10 years. I was given the exit papers including copies of the pictures they took by a nurse, got dressed, and taken in a wheelchair to my friend's car, who drove me home. I week after I had a follow-up visit to the Center where a nurse explain to me how the procedure had gone and saw that I had totally recovered from it. I highly recommend this place to anyone who needs to have a colonoscopy done, as well as Dr Sahebjam and his staff.

Lovely office, incredibly skilled physician and nurses! I had an embolization procedure performed…read moreby Dr Guyer. From the consult all the way through post op , I was treated with the utmost respect and compassion. The nurses assigned to me, Macy and Katie, were extremely professional and absolutely went the extra mile to insure my comfort and care was far better than anything I expected! Dr. Guyer listened to my concerns and questions during the consult and met with me pre-surgery. I absolutely recommend this practice and group of medical professionals! Top-notch!

She did not actually examine me, instead, she rattled off this and that unrelated factoid about migraines, and prescribed something that made me feel worse. Please, there is a patient and a clinician. The job of the latter is to examine the patient and make a diagnosis. No exam, no diagnosis. Thinking is in order

Will go to this facility again as needed due to this experience. Thanks!

Staff and doctors are amazing. It's the now 3rd party billing that makes AFC horrible…read more The 3rd party billing is in a "different" country. And they've screwed up my families billing to many times to count. We have 2, yes two forms of health insurance. When you try to call to fix the issue, you can't understand what they are saying except for "that's your bill, pay now?" "We bill you, you pay" Avoid the medical billing shakedown from these 3rd party mobsters. They'll have you in collections for thousands over a aspirin that you never took. They do medical billing code like they are playing a game of bingo. AFC, if you want to be a better place, ditch the 3rd party mobsters and con artists. Staff and doctors are great, not worth dealing with a shakedown for your money because they have no idea how to bill your insurance.

The doctor was very nice and they did a Covid/flu test in office. Luckily it might be allergies or the cold thats going around. The offices are clean and comfortable and it was a very smooth, no wait visit. They do labs and other tests as well as physicals too so this is a convenient option if you're waiting for your doctors to fit you in or get sick during the weekend, as we did. It's in the same plaza as Kroger in the left corner. Easy to find and convenient.
