Reviews for DHAT Rowlett - Lakeview Pkwy
"I had an appointment with Natalie Owen, and I am very satisfied with my experience. From the moment I walked in, I felt a sense of comfort, starting with the front desk greeting. The Medical assistant, Savannah, was lovely and calm while taking my blood pressure and history. PA Natalie Owen is different from many of the practitioners I have seen over the years, especially at the V.A. Medical Center. Her attitude and manner was genuine, kind, and caring. When we discussed my plan of care, she carefully took the time to make sure I understood/comprehended what she was saying to me. Finding a doctor / PA who is caring, sensitive, and passionate about what they do is challenging. I’m so grateful. Thank You."

"Overall, I had a very good experience. The staff at the surgery center was amazing and Dr. Paradiso was very nice. My only negative comment is that the doctor did not come to see me after the procedure, so a few questions I had did not get answered."
"I LOVE Dr. Arslanlar and Jacquelyn Lane PA-C! I have used Dr. Arslanlar for more than 10 years. I have recently had the pleasure of working with Jacquelyn Lane, PA-C. They are both fantastic and listen intently to your concerns. I have very complex issues and they have kept me healthy. I don’t think you would be disappointed using them. Be aware though, it does take some time to get an appointment because they are that good. It will be worth your wait. I highly recommend them!"

"The staff is very friendly. I just recently lost my husband and the day I went in. I had to see the PA instead of my doctor but when they let my doctor know, my husband passed away Dr. Pattell came in to give me a hug and find out what it happened. I appreciate everybody being so understanding. the only downside is my appointment was at 2:30 and it was almost 330 before I was seen."

"Jackie, the PA was wonderful- she was caring, personable and took the time to understand my symptoms, took a very thorough history and was very collaborative with a sensible care plan to address my needs. I am a healthcare professional myself, and really respect and appreciated her expertise but even more-so the amount of time she took to listen as well as explain things. One of the most thorough medical visits I’ve had in quite some time."
"I saw Dr. Harris at the recommendation of a friend. She listened to my concerns, actually suggesting a diagnosis that I had suspected. She did not diagnosis it, as it was not her speciality, but, she encouraged me to keep seeking answers to my years long health journey. I will certainly keep her as my gastroenterologist because I know she will work with my primary doctor and me to get to the root of my digestive issues. I would recommend her to anyone needing a good, patient, compassionate and knowledgeable gastroenterologist."

Truth be told I was a little reluctant but so thankful that he did. The scan detected a tumor on my right kidney which turned out to be Renal Cell Carcinoma cancer which was just about to grow out of stage 1b into stage 2. Thankfully due to the early detection I only had a 1/3 of my kidney removed resulting in a good prognosis. If it weren’t for Dr. Patel I probably wouldn’t be here today. Forever grateful David N."

"Dr. Patel is an incredibly skilled physician who truly cares for his patients. I have very complex medical issues and have been seen by approximately 100 doctors. He is by far one of the very best! He is a great listener, never has made me feel rushed in a single appointment in 10 years, and has successfully treated me for numerous GI conditions. He goes WAY above and beyond to make sure I am as healthy as I can be. I have the utmost respect for him as a person and a doctor.

"Dr Patel is very confident down to earth Dr knows what he's talking about and is easy to relate to."
"Dr Harris is the BEST! The most thorough GI doc I’ve been to (after 7 others) for a problem no one can figure out. She was the first to really spend time and LISTEN to me and refer me to other therapies that might be able to help. She doesn’t give up, say I can’t help you, and pass you on to the next GI doc, which is all I’ve experienced before. Easy to talk to, professional yet friendly. Highly recommend!"
"Courteous staff. Dr. Arslanlar is very patient and listens to the concerns of his patients. You never feel rushed or uncomfortable. Very pleasant Dr. To be around and talk to."

"I was referred to Dr. Patel by my PCP, who raved about him. I see why, now! Very thorough going over my medical history and discussing any current issues. And, on top of that, he was very personable and had a great sense of humor! Staff was very nice and competent, as well. Highly recommend!"
"This was my second visit with Dr. Patel. I have Diverticulosis and was having a bad attack of diverticulitis. I was treated in my local hospital’s ER & kept there to get a CT and a strong antibiotic via IV. I saw Dr. Patel for my follow up. He explained why this attack was different from the last one, 14 years ago. I was not taking care of myself-eating poorly, not exercising, not enough fiber in my diet, etc. All added up to classic reasons when combined lead to diverticulitis. He recommended the changes I needed to make to get better and stay healthy. He was very patient and knowledgeable. That being said, I hope I don’t have to see him before my next colonoscopy in a few years… ;-)"
"Dr. Harris is wonderful! She took the time to listen to my concerns, and thoughtfully answer my questions. I left feeling heard, after many months of visits with different doctors and feeling unheard. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Harris and will be passing her name along to everyone i know."
"Excellent care and staff."
"Love this place."
"I have been going to see Dr. Arslanlar for over 7 years and all I can say is he is amazing. He listens to me and really takes the time to hear my concerns and offer the best options and information available. He makes sure to keep my other doctors at other clinics informed with my latest visits. He is an amazing doctor and really cares for his patients! His staff is also amazing including his nurse Claudia. Anytime there is an issue and I call, she is sure to get back to me with an answer. Exceptional treatment! 120% recommend!"

He is super sincere and down to earth guy. Not only that he is top-notch and what he does. I always felt like he was there for me, and I never felt abandoned through the whole process. He answered every question I had, and was there for me the whole time. You don’t have to take my word for it, give them a call and let them set you up an appointment. And hopefully they can help you like they have helped me. Good luck on your future endeavors and take care ."
"Dr Patel took time to answer all my questions about the procedures he was very calming and reassuring."

"My experience is and was very good. Dr Alvarez is a very professional person i would recommend her and her staff to relatives and friend's."

"Dr. Lisa Alvarez is knowledgeable and compassionate. She changed my life by talking to me, not at me. I asked her earnestly for help and she cared.

I appreciate having a doctor who cares about me as a human being."

My husband rushed me to the hospital in Wylie, TX and the ER Doctor indicated that I needed to be taken to the BSW hospital in Rowlett. Dr. Harris performed the procedure successfully. I recovered quickly with no side effects whatsoever. Dr. Harris was very personable and professional and I have seen her on two other occasions for the same procedure. Everything has gone so well."
"Family has been seeing Dr Arslanlar for years. Great doctor and highly recommend him."
"I saw Dr. Harris as my sixth gastroenterologist after six years of disabling GI symptoms with no definitive diagnosis despite extensive testing (read: nightmare patient). She took the time to thoroughly review my history, discuss possible further diagnostic/therapeutic options, and refer me for diagnostic laparoscopy. I have nothing but praise for clinical care which was well worth the hassle of the office phone system that leaves you on hold for ten minutes, then disconnects you. Perhaps the practice is screening for highly motivated patients?"
"Dr. Arslanlar is very personable with an extensive knowledge about his medical area of expertise. He is honest with his patients. I have been his patient for years, and he has never steered me wrong. And I feel great!!"
"I highly recommend DHAT they are very professional and informative. I have been working with Dr. Arslanlar since 2019 and he has always been a great help with understanding and managing my health issues."
"The doctors and all the staff here are very knowledgeable. I would recommend them to all of my family and friends."

"I’m a new patient. Dr. Patel made me feel very comfortable and I felt comfortable talking with him."
