The Procedure

Your stay in the facility will be approximately 2 ½ hours. If you are having a colonoscopy or upper endoscopy you will receive sedation for your procedure.

 It is required that you have a driver to take you home after sedation. If you do not have a driver, your procedure will be cancelled and rescheduled for a later date. 

If you do not have a driver, a taxi cab may also be called on your behalf.

Your ride is welcome to wait in our waiting room or we will be happy to call them when you arrive in the recovery area. Please have a valid telephone number where they can be reached allowing them to arrive in a prompt and timely manner. Under no circumstances will you be allowed to drive yourself.

 Any family accompanying a minor is asked to stay in the facility.
