As a med device rep of 30+ years, all I can say about my colonoscopies with Dr. Eidem is nothing…read morebut amazing. Each procedure was flawless and timely.

Dr Eidem tore my colon during a routine colonoscopy. I ended up in the hospital for 10 days with…read morenothing by mouth, and IV antibiotics. I was told by Dr Eidem that I had 4-5 polyps he had to remove. Three years later I got up the courage to have another colonoscopy as requested by my new doctor. My new doctor informed me after the colonoscopy was over that he found no evidence of polyps ever in my colon. I thought I was going to die after my colonoscopy with Dr Eidem. It took over a year to recover. Please, if you value your health, do not use Dr Eidem. This app made me give him a star, otherwise I wouldn't have.

**My username is an alias, for privacy reasons. I'm a legitimate patient**…read more Dr. Alvarez or her practice or both are either incompetent, insane, or badly run. I was recommended to Dr. Alvarez by a friend who is a patient of hers. My PCP sent over the referral. I was not allowed to make an appointment with Dr. Alvarez when I called them. First, I was told there had to be a "transfer of care" because I previously saw a doctor in their group (GI Alliance) two years ago. They said that the transfer was pending, a mere formality, and that I should hear back later that day. No one ever called me back so today, I drove over to their office. I spoke with the Office Manager, who flat out said Dr. Alvarez had looked over my chart and is refusing to see me. NO REASON WAS GIVEN. Huh?? That is a first for me. I've never been denied to see a doctor for non-insurance reasons. My PCP's office then called over to them and was again told about the "transfer of care". That's not what the Office Manager had stressed to me. Seems no one has any clue what's going on here and I still have no real idea why Dr. Alvarez is refusing to see me. I urge anyone wanting a referral for her to exercise caution...and consider looking elsewhere. Clearly, there is a lack of transparency here and no real evidence of a doctor who really cares...certainly not about future patients or their health.

Becoming a doctor granted me the art of being able to connect with people while treating their disease and/or ailments. In conclusion, patient's concerns and preferences are always a priority in my mind on forming treatment plans and I feel this is an important part to maintaining the patient-to- physician relationship and key to treating disease.

I cannot convey how grateful we are for having found Dr. Duraiswamy years ago. It is seldom that…read moreone can find a specialist that is thorough, patient, and a great diagnostician.

Recently went to this provider and was recommended a colonoscopy. Got the colonoscopy done and am…read morenow receiving bill after bill; even though the provider themselves are in-network with my insurance apparently they decided to schedule the procedure somewhere OUT of network, and not only that facility but also the anesthesiologist and assisting provider for that day are all changing insane bills because of this. It was never discussed that she would be using an out-of-network provider fees for this procedure, and never would have done the colonoscopy with her had I known everything was going to be charged out of network. Other than the billing issues, this Dr didn't seem concerned with getting to the actual root of the problem and just expected me to take laxities the rest of my life, which I'm not about to do. From start to finish, would not recommend.

I saw Dr. Kim for a consultation. As an RN I am very good at calming patients, but when it is me,…read moreI am a basket case. OK, I'm anxious and my BP goes up. Dr. Kim is very personable, warm, compassionate. So much so that my anxiety totally went away. I have needed a screening colonoscopy for about 6 years, and scheduled to see him, he was that confidence-inspiring. I recommend him, as a health care professional and as his patient. He really is "as good as it gets!"

Dr Clarke is a wonderful caring gastro dr BUT...his front office ladies at the Sherman office are…read moreabsolutely horrible! I called to ask to leave the nurse a message after being at the ER all night with diverticulitis attack and she refused to let me leave a message. I then asked to leave a message for Dr Clarke but she refused that as well. The only thing she offered to me was a virtual appointment the following week! Terrible. All I had was a few questions. If I didn't love Dr Clarke so much I would find another gastro. So beware .... In a time of great need Dr Clarke might be inaccessible.

I have used Dr Sarles for about 30 years. He has done all my colonoscopies and endoscopies. In fact…read moreI had my 3rd endoscopy today. You go in for your procedure...he explains what he's going to do...you get prepped...he does procedure...after you return to recovery you get dressed. Dr Sarles comes by and tells you exactly what happened during procedure and if any polyps were removed or biopsies taken and answers any questions you have. You're given patient instructions and photos taken during procedure and your ride picks you up to go home. He will inform you of lab results or you may call about 2 weeks later. I find him very personable yet a very serious and caring physician.

I took my then 21 year old daughter who had been suffering with stomach cramps and diarrhea for…read moreseveral years but peaked while in college. Sarles put her on medication, which was too strong and made it worse. After a couple of blood test and a colonoscopy told her to just deal with it. Didn't even recommend a diet. Said she couldn't handle it! We went to UT Southwestern and found a real dr who listened and after several tests my daughter tested positive for SIBO. 2 rounds of antibiotics and she's over it. What a difference a dr that listens and understands what he's hearing verses a dr like Sarles who just wants to get out of there. If you have a pressing issue go to UT Southwestern.

The staff was really professional, they made her process so easy and smooth. The manager emailed me my moms paperwork, I was able to easily print it and fill it out and it made our time at the doctors office a lot shorter. The staff was informative & kind. It was so helpful that the doctor and her staff spoke Vietnamese. We were able to community with ease. Dr. Nguyen explained everything to my mom, she made it easy to understand. We are lifetime patients for sure.

He called them and asked to set an appt and they told him that they couldn't and would need to call him back. That was a week ago. They still haven't called to set that appointment up that they originally asked for in a letter. UPDATE: I got a response to my bad review faster than I got a response to multiple phone calls to set an appointment. I called multiple times way before the holiday. I had my wife call and leave her number also. Neither of us got a call back. Don't believe me? Call his office. You won't get a response. ORIGINAL REVIEW: Absolutely impossible to get ahold of this doctors office. They only have a voice mail. His office does not call back! They have a web form for appointments that they ignore. I only got a response when I got another doctor to refer me, and even then I couldn't talk to anyone from the actual office to schedule an appointment. My brother is an existing patient and he can't get them to call him back either. Don't waste your time. You won't have a good time.
