"The entire staff from check in to discharge were very kind and professional. All my questions were answered and I had no worries. The nurses were very friendly and put my mind at ease. Dr. Steephen came and visited me before the procedure to make sure I was comfortable. She then came and gave me the results when I was in recovery 😊"
"So thankful for Dr. Anita Steephen and Lone Star Endoscopy for the easy and comfortable process for my medical procedure. They made the experience comfortable and I felt so well taken care off. From Michelle -the nurse who got me checked in, started my IV and got me settled down- she was so nice and the IV barely hurt. She was kind and helped calm my nerves, to Nicole the Anesthesiologist, to Courteney and Mollie the recovery nurse- every single person was so kind. The procedure is nerve wracking and can be anxiety inducing but the staff made is so so easy. Dr. Steephen was compassionate, encouraging and I am so glad I picked Lone Star Endoscopy for my procedure."

"I was assigned to Dr. Steephen after reporting to Texas Health Presby. Hospital Emergency Room for abdominal pain. She did endoscopy and colonoscopy and found a massive tumor in my colon. At first I thought Dr. Steephen was aloof and not a very caring person. After getting to know her, however, I found she does care for her patients and is highly skilled. She is from India, I believe, and her culture is much more reserved than the normal american culture we see every day. This reserved demeanor may come across to some as aloof or standoffish but it's really not who she is. She does not 'sugar coat' her diagnosis and is very direct. I would recommend her to anyone."
