"Dr. Erik was very friendly and had a great bedside manner. I was in an out of my colonoscopy within an hour. It was a very nice nap."
  • April 18, 2023
"Dr. Thyssen heads a great team of expert and caring staff. Today’s visit was a colonoscopy after a previous office visit. From the moment today’s receptionist greeted me and, before paperwork, immediately pointed me to the nearest restroom (Bless you!) until the recovery RN released me, I received excellent care from all team members. As a retired RN and decades long IBS patient, I heartily recommend Dr. Thyssen and his staff (at both SIG and AEC ). Thank you! "
