This was my first colonoscopy at prime surgical center of Newport Beach. And if somebody told me I'd be writing a review about my colonoscopy I probably would've laughed but I ain't laughing now! My concierge primary care physician and gastroenterologist, the amazing Dr. Angie Sadeghi (whom I affectionately call Dr. Angie), recommended this facility. She’s the kind of doctor who makes you feel seen, heard, and genuinely cared for. When she suggested Prime, I trusted her implicitly. Let’s be real: nobody eagerly looks forward to a colonoscopy, especially that dreaded prep the night before. But walking into this place felt like arriving at the Dana Point Ritz-Carlton rather than a surgical center. The exterior is impeccably landscaped, pristine, contemporary, and new—pulling up at 6:30 a.m. already set a tone of calm luxury. Inside, the young receptionist greeted me with such genuine warmth and personable energy that you could tell she truly loves her work and the team she’s part of. That kind of authentic joy at dawn? Rare and refreshing. From the prep nurse, attending nurse, technician and to the recovery team, every single person I encountered radiated the same vibe: true camaraderie, light-hearted banter, and a palpable sense of friendship among the staff. They were kidding with each other in the best way, clearly happy to be there—it’s like the whole place runs on mutual respect and real connection. As a lifetime Titanium Marriott Rewards member and big fan of the W Hotels, I can say this without hesitation: prime surgical center of Newport Beach is like the W Hotel of surgical centers—boutique, elevated, and effortlessly sophisticated. The waiting area for my son was comfortable and thoughtfully appointed (complete with amenities and that hilarious sign: “This food isn’t for you”—had me chuckling even pre-procedure). The fashionable seashell drapes in the prep stalls? A far cry from the usual sterile mint-green hospital curtains—I actually complimented them out loud. And the gowns? Surprisingly comfortable, high-end quality. I half-jokingly asked if I could take one home. The procedure itself? Seamless. Dr. Angie stopped by beforehand to reassure me personally, spent a few minutes with my son in the waiting area (talk about going above and beyond), and everything went exactly as she promised. Once they wheeled me in, I have zero memory until gently waking up in recovery feeling like I’d had the best eight-hour sleep of my life—no grogginess, just refreshed. I chose to schedule this on my birthday—yes, my friends and family thought I was certifiably insane—but I told them: it’s like celebrating at the Ritz-Carlton, minus the champagne and caviar (though the care was that luxurious). In matters of health and wellness, I refuse to compromise. It’s the one area where counting pennies feels like false economy. Money is what we spend; value is what we receive—and this experience delivered tenfold. Remarkably, the cost was half of what I’ve paid for similar procedures on the East Coast, yet the quality of care and environment was exponentially superior. Why settle for less when you can have this? If you’re facing a procedure and have the privilege of choosing, do yourself a favor: go where you’re treated like family, with expertise wrapped in genuine warmth. Thank you, Dr. Angie and the entire prime surgical center team—you turned what could have been a mundane (or worse) experience into something almost spiritual: a reminder that when we invest in our well-being with intention, the universe meets us with grace. Highly recommend. Truly.

Stay away. Extremely disappointed that they were unprepared for my husband's procedure which was scheduled months in advance. To request docs the evening before to satisfy an Anesthesiologist is completely unacceptable. Plenty of other Surgical centers to use.

My daughter had surgery here January 2018. Inviting atmosphere, clean and excellent staff. Having a procedure here beats going to a hospital.
