Solid, comfortable, and efficient place with great staff. Just be sure you call ahead to verify the COVID policy for adult escorts and whether they can wait inside; the website was out of date on that point when I went.

I am 69 years old and recently had a colonoscopy at Waverley Surgery Center. Anybody who has prepped a colonoscopy knows you are not feeling really terrific before the procedure. From the minute I was met at the elevator to the time I left after the procedure, I must have interacted with about 10 people. Every person treated me with respect, kindness, consideration, and were engaged in providing comfort, meeting my needs, and informing me of each step to be taken before and after procedure. I knew I was in the best hands. I highly recommend them. This was my third colonoscopy at Waverley and the experience was same quality each time.

Waverly has been my place for years for colonoscopies and now an endoscopy. The staff are always kind and gentle, and I feel completely confident about my safety and well-being. I’ll continue to go there for any services I need that they offer.
