Learn More Colonoscopy

A colonoscopy is a procedure used to see inside the colon and rectum. The colonoscopy is utilized for many purposes including; detecting inflamed tissue, ulcers, and abnormal growths. The procedure is used to look for polyps and early signs of colorectal cancer, which can help your Plano,TX Gastroenterologist diagnose unexplained changes in bowel habits, abdominal pain, anal bleeding, and weight loss. The American Cancer Society recommends that colon cancer screening begin at age 50, and follow-up screenings are done in 10 year intervals. This interval period could be shortened based on your initial colonoscopy results. Read More >>

Learn More Capsule Endoscopy

A capsule endoscopy examination is a procedure to see inside the small bowel. The capsule examination is utilized for purposes such as detecting bleeding, ulcers, or inflammatory bowel disease. The procedure is painless and allows a video capture of the entire small bowel. The Capsule Endoscopy or PillCam, allows your Frisco,TX Gastroenterologist to see the portion of the intestine where the endoscopy or colonoscopy can’t reach. The capsule itself is a small pill that has its own light source and takes a video of your small intestine as it passes through. While the video capsule travels through your body, it sends images to a data recorder you will wear close to your waist. Afterwards, your doctor will view the images on a video monitor. Read More >>

"Rest assured! The prep the night before was the worst part of my colonoscopy procedure. The Park Ventura Endoscpy Center did NOT have the typical assembly line feel although there were several patients in the waiting room when I first arrived. This is due to the exceptional staff! I was first greeted by the front office staff with a warm smile - and later by the nursing and other support team (nurse anesthetist) who were professional, informative and caring. I had my follow-up appt with Dr. Brown the same day he was on TV giving Ron Corning the results of his colonoscopy. Don't let those TV good looks fool you - he was still the same caring and gentle physician I first met!" 04/2012 | Google

When I lost my father to colon cancer I was still a bit hesitant about having a colonoscopy. After much thought about my father, I finally decided to have the procedure done. I was very glad I did! Dr. Brown and staff found 2 large polyps on the 1st procedure. The 2nd procedure done 2 years later was much of an improvement with 2 small polyps. Please don't wait to have this procedure done if you're over 45 with a family history of colon cancer! Its not a matter of the doctor looking at your bottom side! Thanks Dr. Brown!" 03/2012 | Google

After suffering for more than 2 years I decided to have the banding procedure performed. The procedures were painless and performed in the office in a short amount of time. Don't wait, the problems won't go away and Dr. Brown can get you back to feeling great and symptom free after only a few visits. Thanks Dr. Brown!" 02/2012 | Google

Dr. Kenneth Brown and his staff at Park Ventura Endoscopy Center in Plano TX, and his wonderful Caring staff. Explain all the process for my endoscopy and colonoscopy, and accomplish the test, in a very compassion and professional manner, from the receiving nurse to the anesthesiologist. Help me with a very positive experience of this test. I'm grateful and, give them my total recommendation. A. Zequeira Richardson Tx" 01/2012 | Google

"I am so glad a friend recommended Dr Brown to me. I was suffering from extreme indigestion and thought it was due to being overweight and stressed out. Then I heard how Dr Brown had helped her overcome the same symptoms. So I made an appointment and got scheduled for an endoscopy. Turns out it was more than indigestion and seeing Dr Brown when I did probably saved me from future throat cancer. If you are having problems, don't just keep eating Tums, come have it check out. The procedure was painless and Dr Brown's staff was wonderful at keeping me relaxed." 10/2011 | Google

"This was the easiest procedure that I have ever had. Everything was explained to me prior to the procedure and I had no complications or complaints. I will continue to see Dr. Brown and refer friends to him." 10/2011 | Vitals.com

"I first came to see Dr. Brown in September 2011 for a second opinion for Chrons disease. At the time when I was seen by Dr. Brown I was in indescribable pain. As a new patient Dr. Brown spent 90 minutes with me. I will never forget his words of we have a plan for you to feel better and regain your a quality of life back. I have suffered with this disease for 10 years. From a colonoscopy, to a minor rectal surgery, to the end result a ileostomy I have my life back. a ileostomy is one of the best things that could have happened too me, ending years of suffering. Simply put two Dr's Kenneth Brown & Tony Macaluso have restored my life 100%. I cannot thank both of them enough for improving my situation and ending countless and unnecessary years of suffering. Thankyou!

"Dr. Brown is a wonderful man to deal with. Many people find this procedure a bit trying; and he does his best to make you feel at ease and comfortable. He is very considerate and takes his time to listen to what you may have going on. For those first time colonoscopy people: eat light 2-3 days before your fast - it will make the whole process a lot easier on your body... day of procedure is a breeze..."

"After moving here three years ago I immediately started having major complications with my Crohn's. A month later, I ended up in the hospital needing 2 abscesses drained and the surgeon, Dr. Jabbour (who is excellent too!) recommended Dr. Brown. My first impression of him and his staff were fantastic! They took excellent care of me and Dr. Brown was very compassionate and considerate. I've had major complications in the last two years and Dr. Brown has been there every step of the way. He also took the time to sit and listen about some of my personal issues one appointment. He performed my colonoscopy and I wasn't nervous at all. During a hospital stay, he and Angelica came to visit. I could never go to anyone else. Bottom line, I completely trust his judgement and I know I will be taken care of. He is wonderful!"

"Dr. Kenneth Brown is a remarkable doctor that has a sense of humor when things are not their best. He is sensitive and a very good listener and I've been Blessed to have him give me the best of care and I trust his diagnosis and professional advice. My primary doctor referred me to Dr. Brown after I had 7 stints in the emergency room due to my stomach problems. He was the ONLY doctor that was able to provide a good diagnosis and put me on meds that have truly made all the difference for me. He is the BEST and only has compassion for the well-being and health of his patients." Sonya | 08/2011 | Vitals.com

"I would strongly recommend Dr. Brown and his staff. I have had ulcerative colitis for 13 years now and been with Dr. B for about 4 years. I have been happy with how they are there for me and listen to my needs; I feel like a name, not a number. Last year I participated in a research study and was very happy how Brandi worked around my schedule to make it work. Brandi is one of the best blood phlebotomists (blood work for the study). I am very nervous with needles and she made it painless and easy. The study was great to participate in. Several scopes later (awake during one even), I strongly recommend Dr. B and his staff to help you the way they have helped me." Melinda | 08/2011 | Google

"I went to Dr Brown for my colonoscopy and it was so easy to set up and the staff were great. The facility was nice and the nurses were so nice. I was a little nervous about getting a colonoscopy, but I slept through the whole thing and I am glad I went through with it because I had a large precancerous polyp that he removed. No one should be scared of this procedure." Ted | 08/2011 | Google

"Great experience. Wonderful staff. Nice facility. Good location. In and out in 2 hours. Would definitely use again." BK | 07/2011 | Google

"Dr. Brown is a great doctor that I have been seeing for over 6 years. I have had multiple visits with him and have nothing but the best to say about him and his staff.  I have recommended him to all my friends and family." Mary W. | 07/2011 | Insider Pages

"I had my firstAfter seeing three gastro doctors, one internal medicine doctor and a couple of nurse practitioners over SEVERAL years..I purchased the D Magizine Top Docs edition with the hopes of finding a new direction we could go with my daughters Irritable Bowel Syndrome symptoms. I found bio featuring Dr. Kenneth Brown and was so excited. He specialized in IBS. I told my husband, Im going to call and just see if they accept our insurance but Im not telling my daughter until I know he can see her. I had an appointment in no time! So thankful they did take our insurance. Together we saw Dr. Brown and pretty much unloaded on him. What she had been through for many years; variety of meds, admitted to hospital, numerous emergency room visits. He immediately responded with this is manageable and I can make her better! I can fix this! She was scheduled the same day of our first visit for tests and she also participated in an IBS study (many thanks to Lucy and Brandy)! I cant tell you how he changed her attitude and life (by just listening to her and telling her this is not in your head as other doctors had suggested) and the best news, we got our daughter back! She was in college at the time of our visit and he quickly understood that a soon to be teacher could not excuse herself every few minutes from a classroom to step away to the restroom. This is the first time a doctor actually listened to us and was confident and reassured us that things would get better for her. I highly recommend him! I cant leave out the staff… they were so wonderful from the appointment scheduler, to the nurses, to the ladies that scheduled all of her tests; the entire practice is very professional and obviously very much a part of the success of the patients! Thank you again!" Dana Lee | 06/2011 | Vitals

"I had my first colonoscopy this week. Dr. Brown was recommended to me by a friend/physician. The facility was convenient, new and clean. The staff superb. Jenny and Phyllis were very reassuring. Julie, Jack, Abbey and Dr. Brown were warm and professional. I highly recommend." Kim M. | 05/2011 | Vitals

"I was referred to Dr Brown by my own physician to have a colonoscopy done at age 48. Dr. Brown and his staff were very kind & informative. I was diagnosed with cancer. Dr. Brown immediately sent me for an MRI to make sure it hadn't spread & called me that night with the results. I was very lucky that it was caught early and hadn't spread. I was in surgery within 2 weeks & am now cancer free. Most people are apprensive about having a colonoscopy done, but the alternative could be worse. Dr. Brown and his staff are very caring."

After he ran tests,had surgury within in a week.Wish i had seen him sooner. Next was a Colonoscopy. His staff was great and the procedure went very smooth.Everyone was very personable.

"After a disappointing experience with another doctor, I made an appointment with Dr. Brown. He took the time to address my concerns and after several procedures was able to treat me effectively. He found things the other doctor had missed! My recent procedure for a colonoscopy went very smooth and I am a very happy patient! I would recommend him to anyone. He has a very good personality also!" R.James | 03/2011 | Vitals

"I must tell all of you out there reading this that my colonoscopy was a breeze. The doctor was awesome [Dr. Brown] and his staff was great. They took time to explain everything to me in laymen's terms and a special "thank you" to Marcel and Trisha....the nurses who were there to answer all my questions and to belay my fears. I was thrilled with the medication that they gave me to put me to sleep...Propofol. I slept through the whole procedure and it was as simple as taking a nap…in fact it was exactly like taking a nap. This is my second time in using Dr. Brown and his staff and I am not going to go anywhere else. I had no problems afterwards and in fact...went out to eat with my husband. Look no further...these are the guys to use....LKM"   Mike | 03/2011 | Google

"I had suffered pain and bleeding from hemorrhoids for several years. At one point I was sent from a clinic to the emergency room where it was recommended I have major surgery to correct the problem. Surgery would have been extreemly painful and I would have to miss at least two weeks of work. A friend told me about Dr. Brown. Within 5 minutes Dr. Brown had found the problem and recommended a band treatment. The entire process took less than 2 minutes and within a few days I felt better than I had in years. I had 3 follow up procedures done and have been trouble free ever since. I highly recommend Dr. Brown to anyone suffering with hemorrhoids! It's an effective and nearly painless process."

"After years of suffering from hemorrhoids and being traumatized by the old method of treating the issue I met with Dr. Brown who explained to me the way the procedure works. Dr. Brown really cares about his patients and treated me over a year ago. I have not had any more problems since his treatment. It works and works well. I have referred several friends to Dr. Brown and they all had great results. Highly recommanded."  Robert |02/2011 | Google

"I was very nervous when I first went in because I have a very complex disease & have been to see 3 other GI Doctors that haven't been able to really pin point what was going on with me. Dr Brown made me feel at ease and talked through the pros and cons of treatments & really made me feel like I wasn't crazy & going through this alone. He really thought outside the box on my treatment. I would defiantly recommend him."

I would highly recommend Dr. Brown."
