Patient Reviews
Oct 28, 2020
I was nervous about seeing dr Sheik since the last review was pretty intimidating. Dr Sheik had a great bedside manner. This was my first colonoscopy and as far as the procedure went he gave me a perfect dose of sedation and I didn’t feel or remember a thing. I didn’t have any nausea after the procedure or any other symptoms.
