"My Colonoscopy went very well. The nurses explained everything very well and were a pleasure to talk to. The facility was very spacious and clean. Awesome experience!"
"The total experience was great. No long wait in the waiting room. The staff were very friendly and professional. Dr. Duplechain was very knowledgeable, too the point while still being very attentive and easy to talk to. I definitely recommend him for all of your digestive needs."
"I have been a patient of Dr. Charles Monier for many years. I began seeing him when I lost 17 pounds in a week back when I was welding. I was a heavy black pepper eater. I ate black pepper on white beans,tomatoes, cucumbers, etc. Dr. Monier did my first colonoscopy. Told me I had colitis and treated me with medication. I have had colon screening over the years since. A few years back, he found a huge polip in my colon during a colonoscopy. He is an excellent doctor who I trust 100%. He doesn't have to tell me anymore to stay away from black pepper. His staff is friendly. Ms Gina is super friendly and nice. Over time,I have called for medication refills or different matters. She has always returned my calls promptly. She is surely a role model for the new workers to look up to. Katie and Dr. Stephen Duplechain are super too. They are super friendly and treat you with concern. Buy the way, I'm 58 years old and my mom raised me to always tell the truth. That is what I have just done."

I had a colonoscopy done and to a person the whole process was easy and very professional. I arrived at the facility at 10:00 AM and was literally walking out the door just after 11:00 AM. With other doctors I've waited that long just in the waiting room. I was nervous about the results because of some family history, so I also appreciated getting them immediately after the procedure and not at some future appointment (all good news, by the way). I was also very surprised by how gentle the anesthesia was and how easy it was to recover from it. If you are nervous about getting this done, these people are the very best and will do an excellent job with you."

"Dr Toups always makes you feel comfortable very courteous and friendly office very nice and clean with a great staff my daughter goes to him and feels just like me I recommend him to a good friend of mind he called and has a appointment coming up soon"
"Dr Toups is the absolute best Gastro Dr I’ve ever had and I’ve lived all over the U.S. Caribbean and Pacific and no one is as understanding or caring as he always is. The visit to the Gastro Dr was always an appt I feared because the doctors are as mean as the issues you’re fighting but Not with Dr Toups he’s smile and manors make a world of difference and I will never use another Dr. to manage my Crohn’s disease.
