"Everyone was nice and the doctor was great . Don’t remember a thing.."
"Great experience considering the prep. The plave is clean and well maintained. Dr. Spearman and all of the staff were professional and respectful. I would strongly recommend Gastroenterology Associates of San Antonio to anyone."

"Well, we got there early. Waited outside in the waiting area. Then got escorted in. Waited in the inside waiting room. Was finally called to go get "dressed" and wait for drs to come. Once they came to talk to us and check the records things went fast. Even the checkout. All in all, things went well Drs and nurses were very kind and through. Very professional."

"Dr. Spearman was great. Took the time to explain everything and addressed all of my concerns. Very good experience"
"This was my first time at this facility from the time I walked in the building the receptionist greeted me with a smile and proceeded to gather up the information I needed. When i went to the back for screening the young lady was very polite and very friendly, The doctor was very helpful to me as he explained how everything was going to be done, overall I was very pleased with the visit."
"First of all, Dr. Spearman is wonderful. However, the nurse that was starting my IV was extremely rude and insisted that I had diabetes melitus after I explained to her that I have diabetes insipidus. She looked at me and asked me what that meant to me like I am a “complete moron” and I told her that it is a pituitary issue, not glucose problem. She proceeded to check my blood sugar anyhow even after I told her I did not want her to nor did it need to be done. Then she was very rude and slapped the oxygen tubing in my lap and did not bring a blanket after I said that I was cold. The nurses need training and need to know that diabetes does not mean blood sugar issues automatically. An RN does not make you smarter than everyone and I am a LVN."
"Wonderful facility the staff was very friendly. Dr. Spearman was very professional."

"Excellent service, very professional"
"over the past 30 years i have had numerous gastroenterologists due to various job-related moves throughout the country. Dr. Spearman is the most accessible and most responsive. Darren Spearman, M.D. was reccommended to me by my PCP during a visit, where i had expressed frustration over getting someone on the phone with my previous gastro physician, whether for an appointment or any other reason. i always had to wait for a call back. My experience with GC of SA was very different. Someone always answers the phone and directs your call accordingly. Probably the most impressive thing about Dr. Spearman, aside from being a fine physician, is that he does not rush patients through office visits to move on to the next patient. He takes as much time as necessary to go over any and all questions / concerns, and does so in a very casual, conversational manner, unlike some physicians who can be condescending. He is also a really nice person"
"He is one of the best I have ever seen and is very professional."
"Dr. Speerman was absolutely amazing! I could not have asked for a better Gastro. I hate it that my insurance will not let me go there again, but that’s on the insurance company because I would’ve been a patient for life! He is so caring and listens, but not only listens, but here’s you intently. Thank you for everything you did for me while I was there :-)"
"Dr. Spearman and his staff were amazing!"
"In all my years of getting medical attention around the country, Dr. Spearman has to be in the top three experiences. He spends time to listen to me and what is going on in my body. He doesn't just jump to conclusions on what is wrong. He also educates you, in terms you can understand. You feel involved in your care choices instead of dictated to. Now you add in the support staff at the practice and it is tied for first place as the best medical experience I have had in my 66 years. The nurses, technicians and administrative staff are all top notch. I wish the rest of the medical profession was anywhere near this good. BTW: I hardly ever give a 5 star review for anything. I grade hard."
"Everything was great. In and out without a problem. The staff were very friendly and polite. Dr Spearman had his team on point."

He asked me to let him know how an added cholesterol medication worked for me as a binder. Now I am letting him know, I have less pain and urgency! I can go to work without fear of pain nor embarrassment. Thank you Dr Spearman!"
"My short time with Dr. Spearman involved a comprehensive exchange of information concerning my medical situation and upcoming procedure. During this time he answered all my questions in a very professional and thorough manner so as to leave no doubt in my mind as to what my procedure will involve.

You can believe that what he tells you is the truth. Very knowledgeable and professional. Kind person, but chances are he is not going to be your best friend. Staff is also professional and courteous .... and this is especially true at the front desk which I refer to as the firing line. Take my word for it, they don't get any better than Dr. Spearman."

I have already recommended this office and Dr. to all my friends. Blessings"
"I would give 5 stars to Dr Spearman, but a 1 star to the scheduling and front staff. Their disrespect for the patient was amazing. Their inability to help deescalate a situation was a zero. Dr. Spearman deserves a more competent group of people."
"I had a very good experience with Dr spearman this is my second time to the office the first time I had Dr pisner and it was the worst experience he only gave me about 3 minutes of his time made me feel rushed didn't even follow through for the reason I was there which is for a colonoscopy he just sent me home with probiotics which I already had so I really appreciate being able to see a different doctor and Dr spearman was great"

"I had a procedure to view a hiatal hernia this morning. The experience was as pleasant as it could be. The staff was pleasant, friendly, and efficient.

I dressed fairly warmly, so it wasn't too bad. I was in and out in an hour and a half. Well done!"
"Dr. Spearmen was very professional with a sense of humor! He asked multiple questions in an effort to determine what was causing my medical issues. He also thoroughly explained the follow up procedure."
"Dr. Spearman was very nice and helpful with my questions. He was very thorough with his answers and helping me understand things about the esophagus and GERD. He agreed to do an Endoscopy with me and that hasn't happened yet due to his diagnosis of Covid. (I hope he is doing better and feeling well!). The reason why I gave 4 out of 5 stars is because even though it was early in the morning, I felt a little rushed. I had my blood pressure taken before the talk with him and asked for them to do it again which didn't happen. Then when he sent me over to schedule the Endoscopy, I heard him saying that he had 31 patients that day which is a lot of people to take care of. I think he should spread out his work load if possible and not be so open to announce the quantity of patients he sees. There is always a turning point when a doctor can't take on new patients. Sounds like he may need to do that. Overall, I am happy with him and can't wait for him to tell me the results of my Endoscopy appointment scheduled on 12/11. 😁"
