Question Medical Appointment transportation for colonoscopy

Are there any services that provide transportation to medical appointments in Orlando? Also, any services that provide an escort to medical appointments that will wait for you at the appointment? I'm asking for a single friend new to TV that needs to go for a colonoscopy and anesthesia is involved, so she won't be able to take herself. Thanks!

There are people who do this type of thing, but there is a cost involved. There are many good gastrointestinal doctors in The Villages.

A young lady (19 years old) posted the other day that she is looking for something to go while she is here. I know nothing about her but she may be willing to drive.

This involves a specialized diagnostic procedure with endoscopic ultrasound. I think it can only be done in orlando
