Amazing! What a pleasant surprise! Not only was Dr. O'Brien very knowledgable, easy to talk with, and thorough in his treatment of my daughter, but he was ON TIME and efficient! A rare find in my experience, ever! He explained the details, as well as the path forward, in a clear, understandable way, and was just great! We left feeling confident in the next steps. I would refer this doctor every time!

Only place I will go for a colonoscopy. Why? Because they are the best. The Doctor O'Brien and Plaza Staff are concerned about your comfort and well-being. Their services are second to none. Thank you for taking good care of me and my bottom. Bruce Jolma
