I had a colonoscopy done a few days ago that I had put off for years because I thought it was going to be so horrible. Not at all! I had a fabulous doctor, Dr Canale, wonderful bedside manner, said a prayer before we started, he was so kind and gentle. I could not have been happier with a situation that could have been horrible. I will definitely keep Dr Canale as my Dr and will have him again, if he is still practicing, for next time, in 5 years. Thank you Dr. Canale and everyone at Merced Surgery Center. From the moment I walked in to the second I left, EVERYONE was wonderful. Thank you to all that helped me in anyway.
