I hope the right people read this review, as I’m sharing my personal experience to help others who may be considering this facility. I had a colonoscopy here on 2/6/2026, and the staff were awesome and welcoming from the moment I checked in at the front desk to the back pre-op area. The nurses were incredibly helpful and compassionate, making sure I understood what to expect prior to my procedure. The anesthesiologist met with me at my bedside beforehand, confirmed my procedure, and answered all of my questions. My physician, Dr. Varia, was awesome as always. He met with me afterward to make sure I was feeling okay post-op and reviewed the findings with me at bedside. The anesthesiologist also checked on me afterward, which I truly appreciated. I previously had a horrible experience with a different doctor at a different facility back in 2015. I experienced severe stomach pain afterward and was moved from post-op to the emergency hospital area for additional testing. It was very traumatic, and I ended up putting this procedure off for my second exam for many years because of that experience. That said, I’m so glad that my current physician, Dr. Apurva Varia at the Center for Digestive Diseases in The Woodlands, uses River Oaks Endoscopy Center. I can confidently give five stars to the entire staff. In the future, I will absolutely trust them to provide a safe and positive experience for their patients. Thank you all!
