"Dr. McMyler and staff are friendly, professional, and very efficient. I did not wait long. I remember thinking that I felt like I was on an assembly line on the day of my procedure.

I would highly recommend Dr. McMyler and Gastroenterology Consultants!"

Though I was not thrilled with the result but I was grateful for the care from everyone! thank you!!!"
"I was apprehensive about having to go thru a colonoscopy. I hadn’t ever been under anesthesia or had any procedures, previously.. Dr. McMyler and all the staff were amazing. Each step was explained by the appropriate staff member and they asked for questions or any concerns and each staff member went on to the next person. It was a giant well oiled machine. I was comfortable and well informed the whole time. For what it was, it was overall not bad for a medical preventative procedure."

Asked lots of questions about what I was experiencing and what medications I was taking.

"Dr McMyler and the staff were great, helpful and informative."
"My experience with Dr. McMylar was excellent. The office offices a screening questionnaire to determine whether or not an office visit is required prior to a screening procedure. Dr. McMylar recommended an endoscopy to me as well as a colonoscopy based on prior and family history. She explained the realist thoroughly and was quite prompt in forwarding the lab results. I deducted one star because I think we should be offered a selection of preparatory products and not just one whose only commendation was that "it lets you drink less." Well, it doesn't because you have to keep drinking more clear liquids right up to quitting time. The pharmacy they use is good and advised me that I could save 40% by buying it direct instead of going through my insurance - that was a plus. Prep for these procedures is never pleasant, but next time I will request a different med."
"Very professional and efficient."
"This was my second colonoscopy with Dr. McMyler and will go to her again when needed."

The medical staff were incredibly supportive and ensured that I was comfortable throughout the entire process."

"OMG--I was scared to death but this was an easy experience. They have it down pat. I was back home in an hour and a half from time I left home. Will never go anywhere else. The last place I went I always waited on Dr over an hour while I lay there frightened to death. If you have to have it done DO NOT GO ANYWHERE ELSE--been there done that--this is the place to go. Dr very very nice and they don't make you go for pre and post op office visits like the others do."

"The procedure (Colonoscopy) was timely From the time I walked in to the time I walked out. The team was knowledgeable and competent. They were expecting me, and each member knew what to do and instructed me as to what was going on. Of course, the worse part of the procedure was the day before with the prep. However, doing it right, made the procedure a success, and had no issues the next day. At the end, Dr. McMyler went through the entire results with pictures and explanation, I'm not say I enjoyed it, but it was necessary, and the whole team made it as simple and efficient as possible, I highly recommend them."

She is very knowledgeable and was very patient. She even assisted with helping my elderly mother off of the exam table and ensuring her safety.

"Dr McMyler and all staff were absolutely fantastic!"
"Always professional and personable. This was 3rd procedure over the years. Wouldn't go anywhere else."
"Getting a colonoscopy is one of my least favorite things to do mostly because in the past the prep was just not fun. However, my experience with Dr. McMyler this time around was much easier and better than past times with others. The prep was easy to do. The check in process was quick, and the whole process moved like a well oiled machine. Quick preliminary processes with all needed information given, out in seconds and woke up quickly after procedure and did not feel groggy from the anesthesia.

Not once did I ever feel like she was in a hurry to get to the next patient. She will continue to be my physician as long as I can see her."
"I don’t often need to see Dr. McMyler, thankfully, but it’s because she’s a great doctor! I totally trust that she will keep me healthy (in her area of specialty!). She is very personable, professional and easy to talk to. ***Make sure you give her a clean canvas to work on!"
"Great first experience! Dr. McMyler was great!!"
"I had an excellent experience with Dr. McMyler and Gastroenterology Consultants of San Antonio. When I realized my colonoscopy was due and I'd already met my deductible for the year, the staff went above and beyond to get me in before Christmas. They helped me get all the paperwork completed well in advance. I spent exactly ZERO seconds sitting in the waiting room after I arrived! I spent about TWO minutes waiting in the next room before I was called for the procedure. The staff here is so good at what they do, working as a team to explain the process, the instructions, the risks, etc. The next thing I know, I was waking up and being shown the photos of my procedure and reassured that all was well. Because of Dr. McMyler and the staff, this procedure was barely a blip in my week and they made it easy to take care of really important preventive care that can be less than fun. Glad I got it taken care of."

"I have been a patient of Dr. Donna McMyler since May, 2009. I trust her implicitly not just because she is a great doctor, but because she is caring and professional. As a person who is not expressly overly fond of doctors, Dr. McMyler has made every visit, whether office or procedure, extremely calming. My most distinct favorable trait is the fact she listens. During the pandemic, I was severely sick. I had extreme nausea, severe stomach and bowel pain, as well as green feces. Dr. McMyler was sympathetic and told me not to worry. Following a home stool study test, I was diagnosed with Adult RSV. Once again, Dr. McMyler prescribed the right medicine. Within two weeks, my system was back to normal. Dr. McMyler and her staff are courteous, professional, attentive, and caring. I have recommended her to several friends, and they, too, have become long-standing patients. If you are suffering from any type of stomach, bowel, or colon problem, I highly recommend Dr. McMyler. You will not be disappointed."

"My care given to me by Dr. Mcmyler and her staff has been exemplary. I have nothing but the up most respect for their hole practice."
"My 1st colonoscopy was done on March 24, 2022. Dr. McMyler had a nice bed side manner before and after. A few days prior to the procedure, I received related calls, texts and emails to ensure I was on track with the preparation. I was a little nervous that I called to ensure I was doing everything right. Her staff was always pleasant. Yep, the drink is weird (like funky kool-aid), and the "going" is like a bad food experience at NIOSA. Worst part (for me), was feeling so terribly thirsty bf the procedure so we took a huge thermos of iced water for me to gulp after. Advice: GET IT DONE, don't wait, no excuses and do it early in the morning if you can, but don't let that stop you either. Today, I feel better that it's over with. Thank you to Dr. McMyler and her staff, who were super kind and patient and I'll see you guys in 10."
"Although I was nervous about my first procedure, the staff was very understanding and reassuring as they helped me through the whole process! Thank you To Dr McMyler and all of the staff!"
"Dr. McMyler and the staff at Gastroenterology Consultants of San Antonio were excellent. The procedure was over before I knew it. Dr. McMyler explained what she found and what she extracted during the colonoscopy. The follow up included an interpretation of the pathology report. My only negative comment would be that the entire pathology report should be made accessible to the patient, not just a summary. Some of us are able to understand scientific/technical language."
"It is always a pleasure to see Dr. McMyler and the staff at Gastroenterology Consultants of San Antonio. They are friendly, caring, helpful and always professional. Thank you"
"Shows a sincere interest in her patients and the solutions to their problems. Her staff displays a harmonious and cooperative spirit toward me and my family. Both my husband and I are patients of Dr. McMyler and we would give a 10 out of 10 to her."
"The most horrible experience in my life to try to schedule an appointment ! ! After my assistant waiting on line for 50 minutes she was told she could not schedule for me because of Hippa. On my return out of the country I called and after waiting 35 minutes I finally got a scheduling person only to be put on hold and then disconnected. I called again only to start the wait and process all over again but they refused to schedule because I did not have my Medicare Humana info on me although I told them it was the same thing as when she did my surgery. So I asked to speak to the doctor or her assistant and was told that they do not return calls and CANNOT speak to them. So I will go to an emergency room and obviously search for another doctor."
"Posting on behalf of my mother. She had a scheduled appt in June at Gastrocon San Antonio and somehow she got rescheduled to Aug and we weren't notified. The doc she was scheduled with was out that day and since she was already prepped, Dr. McMyler stepped in to do the procedure so we weren't inconvenienced further. She was very professional and personable. Qualities you need when dealing with anything medical. I'm thankful that my mom's experience was a good one with Dr. McMyler. Mistakes happen but I'm happy to say they owned it and rectified the situation. Thank you."
"I’ve always used Donna McMyler, MD for any gastro issues and regular checkups including Colonoscopies. This is for my wife as well. She’s a very caring physician with an absolute genuine & friendly bedside manner, plus a excellent physician. I would recommend her and her group to anyone. Danny Pierce"
"I had a recent doctor visit over the phone and found it to be convenient, more efficient and very helpful. Hopefully, Dr Meyers offers this service even after this pandemic is over."
"They are the Chick Fil A of colonoscopy! Super efficient and well run!"
"This was the easiest experience ever. It’s done before you know it! Fast, efficient, courteous!!"
"Everyone was very nice and explained the procedure well. Dr. McMyler was amazing! Very friendly and informative. A true professional with an excellent bedside manner."
"I have had 3 different gastrointestinal doctors. She's by far the best. Very thorough in explaining what she is going to do and after the procedure is done she explains everything she found and what is the plan for you. Love this doctor."
"Dr McMyler is wonderful to work with. She’s extremely attentive to your needs and she takes her time to answer your questions. Dr McMyler and staff are always welcoming and definitely take their time to hear and address all levels of your concerns."
"The experience was an easy one. The process was fast and well organized. The staff was very professional. I was very pleased with Dr. McMyler. She was friendly and open to answer all questions. Should I have problems or just need another colonoscopy, I will return to this office."
"I’ve had 2 successful colonoscopies, done by Dr. McMylar. From the time I called scheduling, until I left recovery, every staff member was professional, courteous. helpful and accommodating. Dr. McMylar makes me feel valued as her patient."
"My gastro appointment did not begin well. It was drastically delayed and for that, I was a little irritated. When my name was finally called, I noticed the staff was very professional and proficient. They quickly took my vitals and led me to my bed to get undressed and get an IV. Shortly thereafter, I was rolled over to the procedure room. Dr. McMyler introduced herself and I promptly informed her I was a little angry. Her excellent bedside manner kicked in immediately! She was not above explaining what had happened and apologizing! From there it was smooth sailing with the exception of the anesthesia! That stuff really burned. So much in fact that I screamed a little twice. The anesthesiologist just held my hand and said the burning would soon stop. Well, it did because the next thing I knew, I was in recovery. Dr. McMyler was there and she told me her findings before telling me I could get dressed. Very professional, excellent staff and bedside manner! Would I go back? Absolutely!"
"Dr. McMyler is friendly, caring and has a wonderful staff. Made me feel safe, comfortable and were reassuring. I highly recommend."
"everyone was so nice and easy going. made me fell very at ease and welcomed."
"The staff was very friendly and professional especially when I told them I didn’t have my license or a credit card to pay. I was told not to worry and I could pay on line. My visit with Dt. McMyler was great. She listened to my concerns and made me feel comfortable when I asked questions. I found my wallet after my appointment and when I went inside to pay I was greeted by name. Sorry, I didn’t get the young ladies name, she assisted me when I first got there, but she was so friendly and kind."
"Great staff very friendly. They take care of you!"
"My appointment was on the phone due to our new norm. I was worried because sometimes communication can be difficult when you can't see if the other person understands. My fear was silly, because Dr McMyler seemed to understand my problems and explained what the course of treatment would be, very nicely. It is hard when you haven't met the person face to face, but I felt good about the experience."
"Both my husband and I have had procedures at the Stone Oak Location of Gastroenterology by Dr McMyler. She was extremely pleasant and knowledgeable. Procedures went very well and I would recommend her and this facility wholeheartedly. From arrival to leaving the entire staff was very polite and professional."
"Dr. McMylar is a good and knowledgeable doctor. It was my first colonoscopy and she and her team were very comforting, friendly and kind. I felt I was in good hands. The procedure was smooth and quick. After the procedure Dr. McMylar explained in detail with pictures what was observed."
"Dr. McMyler and her staff are very friendly and helpful with their clients. Dr. McMyler is is a professional with a good bedside manner and a since of humor. I may only see her once every 5 years but she is a joy to go see. I thank and apricate her and her staff"
"Dr. McMyler was fantastic! 2nd colonoscopy she’s done for me. I highly recommend her."
"Excellent office management. Swift check in. Totally compliant with Covid protocols. Friendly staff. In and out in a timely manner. (I have been a driver for friends at other practices where the wait time was totally unacceptable. ) Fully awake when I spoke with Dr. McMyler following my procedure. I highly recommend this practice. Their professionalism is A+."
"The doctor and nurses were very nice and friendly. I felt very comfortable."
"I was nervous about the procedure and my possible diagnosis. The folks at Gastroenterology Associates were amazing. They were polite and knowledgeable. The anesthesia folks calming and easy to talk to. Dr. McMyler is wonderful. She took time to talk to me before and after the procedure. She explained what she had seen in procedure, showed me pictures and even called me back with the test results a few days later. I would highly recommend her and the facility for any gastrointestinal issues you have."
"Dr. McMyler is a dear. Quick and easy procedure, the "prep" is much improved since my last time."
"I was pleased with my appointment! The check-in was seamless, as I completed the paperwork online. Second, the lobby wait was very minimal. Lastly, Dr McMyler is amazing! She attentively listened to my concern and asked several probing questions that caused me to think she really heard me. She explained the process and even billing concerns. Finally, I would be remissed if I didn't mention her medical team; EVERYONE was courteous (which is a rare find). From check-in to check-out... it was a great experience!"
"First impressions of Dr McMyler and staff were very positive. The staff could not have been any nicer to me. Each person was professional and personable. I felt confident each person knew their job very well. Dr McMyler is a very compassionate doctor that truly cares about her patients. She ensured I was completely informed of each step of the prep and what the procedures would entail. After the procedure Dr Myler came in and gave me full report. I was able to leave knowing everything was healthy. The anesthesiologist was very reassuring that the correct type of medication would be used and I would be able to walk out the building on my own. I truly recommend this facility and especially Dr McMyler. By Vivian Stoltz 2-4-2021"
"I appreciate Dr. McMyler, she actually cares about the patient and is willing to take the time to listen. Dr. McMyler speaks with patients before and after the procedure. She takes her time with the patient in recovery to inform about the outcome of the procedure. Dr. McMyler is an exceptional physician. I highly recommend Dr. McMyler."
"Dr McMyler and her Team were AWESOME!!! I was referred to her by my Primary Care Provider. They explained each step in a procedure I had done. They calmed my nerves because I was very nervous and they also reassured me. Dr. McMyler told me you will see me when you shut your eyes and when you wake up lol.. I said ok and that’s exactly what happened when I awoke. Definitely recommend her and her Team. I promise from my experience you will not be disappointed. Thank you so much Dr. McMyler!!"
"Had a great experience. The staff was so caring also. I would highly recommend."
"Professional and courteous staff"
"Nice place!"
"I have nothing but good things to say about the front desk, nursing staff and Dr. McMyler at Gastroenterology Consultants. As a first timer, they put me totally at ease and made me feel comfortable, physically and mentally, during the whole process. They do hundreds of procedures a week but somehow manage to make you not feel like a number. It’s the human touch that truly makes this operation special and I can’t thank them enough. My message to this group is: Keep up the awesome job that you do. Your job is so, so important. As the husband of a colon cancer conqueror, you (each one of you) are our protectors from an enemy we cannot see. With much respect and love., John Allgeier"
"Dr McMyler and the entire staff at Gastroenterology Consultants of San Antonio did a great job during my recent colonoscopy. From the moment I walked into the building I never had any concerns about my safety. Everyone was wearing a mask. The staff were friendly and made me feel very comfortable about the procedure. Dr. McMyler was friendly and professional at the same time and had a great bed-side manner!"
