Reviews for Digestive Health Associates of Texas
"I have been looking a doctor that won't put a bandaid on my problem. That will fix my problem,and I'm hoping in June when she does my surgery that this will happen it's in her hands and Gods. She is very professional very patient and answered all my questions. I am thankful for her because she seems concerned about my health and wants to truly help me."
"I had an amazing experience with Dr yepuri. He was kind, and I really appreciated how communicate with me , in a way that I totally understood what he’s was saying.
I was however very disappointed with his receptionist. I find her to be very unpleasant. And borderline rude.
My experience with all his staff was very pleasant. I would recommend Dr Jay Yepuri To any of my friends and family."
"Updated: Dr. Harris and office reached out to address my concerns and my experience since then has been great. Thank you!"
"He was nice and took the time to listen to my issues and provide the needed help. His staff was also great!"
"The Dr meet me like he he had all the time to listen to me and that’ was very important"
"Great staff. I wish would take more time to explain details."
"From start to finish, everything went very smoothly. This made me feel very relaxed 😌. I was very impressed by his staff as they readed me for this procedue. I would highly recommend Dr Chandra."
"Such a great physician but also a great staff
No one hurries the process and everyone is very kind So glad he is in my corner!!"
"Everything was done with professionalism and care. Can’t say enough good things about these folks."
"Everyone was very professional kind & helpful"
"Dr. Odstrcil has been an awesome doctor. She is always positive, concerned about my daily living quality. She is methodical about her approach to the changes in my life.
She has a great assistant, Liz. She is Dr. Odstrcil's right hand.
I have found my life-long GI doctor."
"Dr. Kànkanàlà is young but appears knowledgible."
"I am giving Dr. Yepuri a 4 star because he was very helpful and answered any questions I had. The reason I did not give him a 5 star is due to the staff. From the moment I walked in my experience with the staff was not great. The lady in the front was rude. The nurse told me I should have been brought to the back sooner but she forgot to get me and then she laughed. Before I left the staff did not go over instructions pier to my procedure in which I had to reschedule.. I called Monday to reschedule in which I was transferred to his head nurse but got her voicemail; which says to call scheduling.. When I called scheduler they said I had to call the nurse to do that.. So I called again and left a message its now Wednesday and I still have not heard from the office. In short doctor is great but his team is not at least in my experience and that was my first visit.."
"Was shamed a bit for not having my paperwork done completed prior to arrival even though I arrived 10 minutes early. Didn’t appreciate that much, but besides that it was a great experience. The appointment was quick, easy, and personable. Left with a clear understanding for next steps. Dr. Murray was amazing and easy to converse with. Great personality and work quality."
"Dr. Brown himself is awesome: skilled and quick. But the process of seeing him can be incredibly stressful. The phone lines for his office are consistently packed and frequently hang up inexplicably."
"We have used Dr. Nadir for years. He is patient and encouraging."
"Dr.Shea is very professional and explains everything in detail."
"The staff in Dr. Kedia's office are very professional and have done their very best to meet my needs."
"DR. JOSEPH was great. His whole staff was amazing. James and Minnie helped me through a very hard time. Thanks guys!"
"The best pediatric GI, always make kids comfortable by his funny jokes. Very knowledgeable."
"The office staff was very attentive and nice. The Dr. was caring and he took the time to listen to me without rushing before examining me and then speaking with me."
"I have been using gastroenterologists through Digestive Health Associates of Texas for years. Dr. Padda puts the chart down and listens to me, which I appreciate. He performed a routine endoscopy for me, and I had my follow up, but a month later, I still cannot get my prescriptions. My insurance needs more information from the physician that it is medically necessary, but I have spoken to Rayna multiple times, and the information is not sent. They did a superb job caring for me during my endoscopy. As a patient with a terminal lung disease, I appreciate that the employees at the endoscopy center they use take a lot of Covid precautions, but I really need my medications filled. They also do not answer the phone between 12-1pm, because they are all at lunch, but that is when many of us have a break and are able to call. Have never run in to that with another doctor's office. Couldn't imagine how this works for patients with normal 9-5 jobs."
"Caring and to the point."
"I do like Dr. Kenneth Brown and the service he provides. What kept this from being a 5 star rating is the Billing Dept. They kept trying to get me to prepay my co-pay for a procedure, even after my insurer called them direct, twice, to explain coverage was at 100%, and no co-pay. It took me 2-3 calls with my insurer to confirm 100% coverage, then onto 5 different calls and an email to DHAT Billing to reach a manager and by then, they realized that indeed there should be no co-pay. Its now been about a week since the procedure and waiting to see what else will arise on billing. Will follow up if any other issues arise/"
"Everything went really well, I felt like Dr. Ackerman knew the best treatment and did a great job. His staff was very responsive. Only suggestion I have is I was completely unprepared for how I would feel or what to expect during recovery. The instructions I received were exactly the same as the procedure to examine my pancreas via ERCP, but stone removal has been completely different."
"I found him to be very nice and polite. Found my problem and I need to go back for a follow up."
"Very nice doctor who listens more than most. Just wish I could do office visit instead of virtual."
"Great doctor Dr Akerman did my procedure. He waited for me to wake up and explain what happened with the procedure. Will recommend to my family and friends. Great job."
"His staff is WONDERFUL. He has proven to be a very good and knowledgable dr. I would have to say that my ONLY “complaint” (probably only for non assertive people like me) is that he tends to talk like he’s in a hurry which often discourages me from asking the questions I have. Other than that, he’s been wonderful."
"Very pleasant and helpful"
"Initially, the office at DHAT took additional time to schedule me an appointment due to internal polices for releasing paperwork. It took a week just to schedule the virtual appointment. For someone with chronic and sever pains who has been rejected by all other non-GI doctors stating I need a GI doc to look at me, every day feels like a lifetime to wait.
First impressions of Dr. Badr were great. He is very knowledgeable in his field and I look forward to working with him further.
The review score may be improved depending on the results, treatments, and experiences as this is an active review."
"If you need a colonoscopy done see Dr Murray and make your appointment with his friendly staff."
"I have had three colonoscopies at Digestive Health with Dr Mark Murray’s staff and everyone of my visits has been perfect. Dr Murray and his colleagues from the first phone through the procedure and last follow-up phone call has been kind, courteous and professional."
"All was great except the Suprep. It has a vile taste - I nearly vomited several times. Please give me an alternative next time."
"I am happy about the out come and experience I went through during my surgery, thanks to Dr.Akeman and the peoples who work with him.
God bless."
"Knowledgeable staff could make a huge difference for this office. Some patients have insurance plans that allow them to see any doctor. Those patients should not be turned away.
After many months of attempting to get an appointment, I was finally able to see Dr. Brown. He was very kind, personable, and compassionate. I appreciate his approach to medicine."
"A great experience with Dr.Murray."
"If your looking for a specialist that’s fast and knows what to do make your recovery from what ever your going through smooth, come here. I came here from lots of previous work out of state. I didn’t have to start from scratch to get what I needed (meds). he reviewed my documents, quick talk, on my way. Picked up meds the next day from my pharmacy. Unsure how he is with treatment and follow ups but if your looking for a gi specialist I felt comfortable with him as a woman and he knows his stuff"
"I think Dr Sarles is difficult to get hold of, but other than that, I've been very satisfied."
"I had my first appointment with Dr. Masand today and I agree with the others - he is a very nice man. He was very understanding of my concerns and spent time asking and answering my questions. He was patient and I appreciate that he took the time to make me feel comfortable and explain everything to my understanding. I am glad to have been referred to him."
"Everybody was professional and polite
Docter media listen and very helpful"
"Very patient... Told me exactly what was going on and what to expect Would work with him again. Would've been five stars, but his location is not the easiest to get to"
"I hadn’t been to see Dr Kedia in a couple of years, yet he and all his staff still remembered me, and were just as kind and efficient as always"
"I had a long wait time because the doctor was busy with a critical patient. Otherwise he is a good physician."
"Has been a great experience so far. Colonoscopy was not a painful procedure. Upper GI, I couldn’t even tell."
"I went in for my procedure a nervous wreck, and physically sore. I had to drink a solution, beginning at 6:00pm the previous evening, and again at 3:00am, and was up until 5:30am the next morning, resulting in no sleep! Dr. Yepuri's nurses and staff were so capable and patient-I was put at ease, and I'm grateful for their assistance. Dr. Yepuri and his staff explained everything to me as it would occur, and, after making sure that I was feeling okay after the procedure, graciously escorted me out to my car. The next day, a nurse called me at home to check on me and see how I was doing. That means a lot to a patient. Thank you all so much for your patience and kindness!"
"My first visit was great. The next two visits, I felt very rushed. He's an amazing physician, but please more time with patients!"
