Guest guest Posted October 22, 2006 Report Posted October 22, 2006 I'm going to give the office a call tomorrow and find out what's really going on here. It doesn't seem good to have typo's or mistakes on medical paperwork. I'm a bit hesitant to have our family use this endoscopy center again. My hubby also had another incident with them last year during his endoscopy.

Guest guest Posted October 23, 2006 Report Posted October 23, 2006 Nothing like having a nurse around;-) I just got through to the endoscopy center earlier this morning and was going to email you guys what they said, which is exactly what Jo Ann said;-) Thanks!! FYI - I let the office know what happened to me during the colonoscopy and apparently this guy has had other reports like this made by patients AND a doctor. I don't think this office rep. was supposed to drop a dime on the guy like she did but it's nice to know they are taking it seriously.
