I was referred to Dr. Kuettel of Associated Gastroenterology Medical Group, in Anaheim, for my first colonoscopy.As probably most can relate, I became very apprehensive of the procedure, expecting an experience i'd surely long remember, as the others rich with dehumanizing element....THIS such a probing?! Just to learn to exactness, the foulness of my innards! Despite determined effort to change this outlook, I was unsuccessful.The dreaded day came, and I was aided through prep by SUPER assistant, Aicelynn. She's SO professional in her diligence to accurately record the pertinent details of my medical history. Her patience and pleasantness during this tedious process was highest level, and lent greatly comforting assurance. Next, I met Dr. Kuettel, who, in but a minute, became one of my all time favorite doctors. It's important to note here, i've been under care of MANY teams of doctors throughout my entire life. So few have shown to possess insight as demonstated by Dr. Kuettel. Effective was the exemplary effort of aforementioned assistant...but concerns nearly silenced still lingered, and w/o my mention Dr. Kuettel addressed each one. By his considerations, (even to that of my self consciousness!) my tension became ease. And so - procedure went w/o slightest discomfort!DR. KUETTEL CARES. This he proved again by thoughtful acts and suggestions very helpful during my follow up. Through telling images, and utmost dedication, Dr. Kuettel makes plain, PATIENTS BENEFIT from colonoscopy. I know I did.
