Dr. Alan Shapiro and staff go out of their way from start of booking the appointment to following up a day after your procedure to make sure you are back on your feet and resuming normal activities. They are friendly, warm, professional and most importantly they care how you feel!! I would highly recommend Glendoscopy center and Dr. Alan Shapiro for any Endoscopy procedures.
