What Our Patients Are Saying

Doro P. ★★★★★ Wonderful staff was well taken here.Thora W. ★★★★★ Dr. Lee Allen and her staff are delightful, efficient and supportive. Very positive experience.Derek S. ★★★★★ Very well run operation. The Lansing Surgery Center staff is excellent. Dr Plaehn is engaging and communicates clearly both before and after the procedure.Lois C. ★★★★★ This was my first visit to Dr. Julien’s office. The day before, the office called me to confirm information on my referral which was not correct. That was straightened out. On the day of the visit, the office staff was friendly and I did not wait long to be called back. DR. Julien was pleasant, and took his time answering my questions. I felt good about the appointment and left with confidence in him as my doctor.Mary D. ★★★★★ I had worried myself to the point of being very anxious. Dr. Oprenau and his staff calmed me and very gently and efficiently took care of my problem. I’m so grateful.Cyndi P. ★★★★★ Great experience with staff and my doctor, Dr Ross! They know it's a nerve wracking day for their patients, and they are so kind and respectful.Charles H. ★★★★★ I was satisfied with the service that I receivedRoxanne P. ★★★★★ Everyone knew their job and things went very smoothly and quickly. Everybody was polite and when I need to go back, that’s where I will go.Steve ★★★★★ Absolutely wonderful team. Dr. Lee, anesthesiology, the nursing staff, and reception were the best. Smooth and uneventful from arrival to leaving. Will be back.Jaime S. ★★★★★ I’ve been to see Dr. Coffey a few times now, including for one surgery (on that note, I found banding to be literal torture— allegedly it isn’t a big deal to some but I’d NEVER go through that again—so ask what the odds are that the banding would be AWFUL & painful vs just going for the surgery (which also was super painful but that’s just the nature of it, and at least it was a pain I could get through) and one screening procedure. I found him to be straightforward (not that he’s overly blunt but just that he’s a straight shooter) and he’s nice, as were all of his staff.Linda S. ★★★★★ The receptionist was amazingly nice and so are all of the nurses and aides and doctors. I had a terrible experience approximately 20 years ago which was done at a different facility but Lansing surgical clinic was wonderful. No pain no anxiety no frustration and I was able to go on with my house duties the next day. I thank you again so very much and I thank all who took part of making me feel welcome and safe.Jaclyn S. ★★★★★ I had a great experienceCandis R. ★★★★★ I was in rather desperate need for a new GI doctor, and I could not be more pleased with Dr. Jones, his PA, Jonathan, and the rest of the staff.garrett F. ★★★★★ Very professional and welcoming.

He and his staff always do thier best to make me feel as comfortable as possible, and to take the stree out of the visit by being respwctful, considerate, and calm.Dr. O. recommended I get a specialized kind of physical therapy before I have any surgery.Thanks to him and his recommendation, the issue I had, has all but resolved itself. He gave me a choice to go ahead with surgery or not and see how things go. I chose to waylay surgery, and he agreed. That told me he actually does care about his patients, and is more concerened about me, than lining his practices pocket.I'm extremely grateful for having the Digestive Heath Instute in my line up of my personal physicians.

The office itself is a little cramped and dated, but the staff is efficient and I’ve never waited too long to be seen. Recommend this group and especially Dr. Yusuf.Amelia M. ★★★★★ Khadra Mohamed is an excellent PA. She is the first healthcare provider that I feel asks enough questions and truly wants to get to the bottom of the issue. I feel like if the doctor doesn't ask a lot of questions, symptoms can be missed because individuals don't even realize it isn't normal. She takes her time with her patients, asking them questions about every aspect of their health, making you feel listened to. She also continually looks for solutions with testing and medications. You will leave the office feeling more hopeful, than discouraged.Steve S. ★★★★★ Dr. Coffey is amazing pretty much a pain free experience. Thank you!Eloise ★★★★★ Very nice Patient with me and understandingGerald K. ★★★★★ Excellent care ,staff and doctor were greatNancy L. ★★★★★ Everyone that I interacted with throughout the morning was professional and caring.

The staff are very complimentary of him, and I felt very well cared for.Barbara H. ★★★★★ Loved the pa I had very caring and knowledgeableSelame S. ★★★★★ I’m a referral coordinator for local practice here in Lansing. As someone that refers patients to Capitol Colorectal daily, I can honestly say that this practice delivers excellent patient care and even better customer service. In the case of urgent/ASAP referrals, the front office staff is extremely efficient and accommodating for our patients. I have to eulogize Aly N in particular...for those urgent referrals, she calls me as soon as our patients are scheduled (or she’ll send an appointment notice for routine referrals), so that our providers are well informed throughout the process. Regardless If they are non par with the patient’s insurance, Aly has not only notified me, but she has given me a list of CRS doctors (in Michigan) that participate with that patient’s insurance just to be sure that patient is ultimately taken care of. In addition to her meticulousness, Aly is positive and quite marvelous to work with!Yvonne M. ★★★★★ Very friendly and professional staff. Dr. Opreanu was timely and informative both before and after my procedure. Incredibly clean facility. I recommend Dr. Opreanu and the Lansing Surgery Center to anyone looking for a positive experience and outcome.js_loader
