The check-in process was quick and the staff member was friendly, professional and helpful. The facility was clean and comfortable. Carlos, RN was friendly, professional and handled my set-up for the procedure with care. Joel Funk, MD and his student MD performed the procedure quickly and pain free with with a positive outcome. I would recommend Urologist, Dr. Funk and Banner Urology.
