"Very pleasant visit. She listened intently and discussed it thoroughly. Every possible senerio. So used to doctors not doing that. It was a surprise. And I appreciate her listening."
"Went in signed in and with in about 15 minutes i was in the back. Maybe 5 minutes went by and Nurse Practitioner came in we talked and i was done. Set up my stuff for procedure. I may have been in ther 45 minutes. It was great."
"One of the best doctor appointment I have ever had! I Learned a lot, was given great guidance on how to treat my symptoms and was advised to stop using any kind of sugar to starve my cancer tumors which I have already started to do! Looking forward to My Next appt!"
"When I first arrived to the facility I had to go and take care of some business. I was told to arrive at 9:30am , so a got there about 8:45 instead . I think we had a communication issue upon scheduling the procedure. My appointment was really at 10:30am not 9:30am so I had to wait a couple of hours for my procedure to be performed. I didn’t go back until 11:30am . I very upset about this , but at the end everything went well and the staff was very professional. I been going to Dr. Holland for many years and he still the same kind , sweet and very informative doctor I know ..I really need to give a loud shout out to Wendy . She went above and beyond to get my prep for me as well as keeping me posted when there was a cancellation. She gave me awesome instructions on how to prepare for my procedure . Thank you all for the awesome service and care."
"I had a procedure which I was nervous about having and the nurses and Dr. Holland were so awesome. They were very informative and kind. Would highly recommend."

"I love Dr. Chennupati and his staff!! They are so kind and accommodating. Not to mention knowledgeable and thorough!! They truly care about their patient's well-being."
"To be perfectly honest; a little over two years ago Dr Holland offered to treat my wife. We made several calls and even drove up to their office a couple of times to try to get an appointment. And still got nowhere. We felt like we were being ghosted. Then in November of last year (11-10-22) we made another attempt and called them. We got an appointment within two weeks and they have been nothing but amazing since then. I think he may have had a couple of bad apples in his staff and finally purged them out. I would highly recommend them now. The nurse practitioner was very knowledgeable and professional as well. We are very pleased. Thanks"
"Arrival time should be at least 20 minutes prior to use electronic check in process. The tablet froze twice and never got to sign in for consent forms had to do at end of visit. Was moved from one room to another. Wait time was more than 15 minutes. And wasn't finished with tablet until provider arrived. Stressful and took time away from providers visit."

The ladies got me in weeks earlier than my appointment and I talked and laughed so much during my appointment…that my stomach started to feel better while I was there!!! Thank You all for all that you do!!!"
"Yolanda DeLaRosa’s care was extraordinary. She answered all of my questions and was very professional. Everyone at Southeast Texas Gastro made my experience great."
"The only issue I have with this office is that they are popular, which means they are busy. That means I am competing for their attention. But, they are worth the wait."
"Procedures are almost always on time. Nurses, Doctort, and Anesthesiologists are great. Draw backs include long wait times for appointments, especially when you are very sick with belly pain or constipation/diahrea. Doctor Heller is super great, his PA or NP don't know which she is has improved. She still has no little personally, but is less gruff and listens to all you say."
"I've been a patient for 20+ years, they always been professional, friendly for the most part. They continue to strive to get better. If you had a problem with them you need to talk with them about it. Dr. Barenburg is the best."
"Thank you for getting Dale in so quick and the time that was spent on his care. I’ve been a patient of Dr weid since 2011, and I have recommended several family member to him plus friends. Wouldn’t go anywhere else. Thank you to the NP that we saw, she was very kind, efficient, spent quality time and effort to care for Dale."

"This was my first visit and was thoroughly impressed with my attending Nurse Practitioner, the staff, and their well oiled system of stepping you through billing to scheduling. Great job!"
"I have only had one visit so far but they were way more thorough with me than my previous Gastro doctor whom I have been going to for years with no relief at all. I was even surprised to hear that what I’m going through is treatable. Again, my previous doctor(s) never even suggested that."
