"My experiences with Dr. Muhammad Ali and his staff at the Hamilton Wolfe location in San Antonio, Texas have been the most pleasant ones. Staff - receptionists and nurses - and Dr. Ali himself, are very friendly, professional and efficient at what they do. Dr. Ali will come and see you after the procedure. He will explain the findings and, in return, answer all your questions. I thank Dr. Ali and his people for being such a dedicated team! Five stars to all of you!"

"Urology SA in Fredericksburg is by far the best. They are professional, caring, knowledgeable and proficient in all they do for patient. My experience each and every time as a patient has always been pleasant and thankful for their exceptional work. They have been taking care of me outstandingly. I’m very appreciative of the their care and service. Thanks"
"Great Bed Side Manner! I felt comfortable talking to him about my concerns and felt confident that he was knowledgeable to fix my issues. I will continue going to Dr. Ali for my Gastro concerns."
"Dr.Ali and his staff were friendly and was very thorough at going over my previous condition. I had moved here from out of state and was referred to them. They are handling transferring of my records all I had to do was give them my previous doctors info and sign a form."
"The care provided by Dr Ali and the entire support team was exceptional. He personally explained the results after waking from the anesthesia. I highly recommend Dr Ali if you need a colonoscopy or seek other gastrointestinal care."
"Colonoscopy. Staff and Dr. Ali were very nice. Like many large “specialists” groups there were too many people waiting and it felt like an assembly line. But, like mentioned above everyone was very nice, no complaints at all."
"Dr. Ali is a very caring Doctor, takes time to explain you problems and explains how procedures will take place and the results. Recommend him for anyone needing Gastroenterology care."
"Dr. Muhammad Ali and his staff were very polite and patient before and after the procedure. I have been seeing Dr. Ali for several years now and I would recommend him for any gastro issues you have."
"My recent colonoscopy procedure with Dr. Muhammad Ali at Gastroenterology Consultants of San Antonio was a very pleasant and professional experience. The people at the front desk, the person taking my information, the anesthesiologists, the people in the procedure room, Dr. Ali and the nurse who walked me out to my car were all beyond helpful, kind, and friendly. I am grateful that they put my mind to rest about this procedure that most people don’t look forward to. Thank you to all of you!"
"My appointment with Dr. Muhammad Ali was great and extremely professional. Dr. Ali and his staff explained everything in detail and provided a comfortable environment for the procedure. Professional people who provide professional care. Thank you, Dr. Ali and staff."
"I recently had Dr. ALI, and his staff for Gastroenterology Consultants of San Antonio. I showed for my appointment on time, but seemed to be the beginning of rush hour. I was waiting for awhile in line after I figured where to stand. A elderly couple not that elderly, skipped to front of line. Can't help that. Once I ckd in went very smoothly. I had a great experience until I was under, then it was over. So when I was under it must of went okay. Pretty Quick. Thank Dr. and staff for making this easy."
"Short wait time. Clean, courteous, professional office and staff. Dr. M is easy to talk to and seems to really listen as well as inform you of whats going on."
"Staff was friendly. Wait time was not too bad . Dr Ali’s nurse Vicky was so nice and Dr Ali explained my surgery and what to expect. He took his time. Over all my experience was great."
"This was my 12th Endoscopy,Colonoscopy and by far the best experience to date. Professional from front desk to the discharge. A shout-out to my Anesthesiologist,you were the best! See you all in 3 years."
"Excellent at what he does. The exam is quick and painless. I would recommend him for future exams. Once your done he comes to tell you your results before you can leave."
"My first time getting a colonoscopy, and Dr Ali and his staff were awesome. They explain the whole procedure and what I should expect. Very professional and knowledgeable."
"I’ve had a cough for 2 years now. I thought I had throat cancer. Dr Ali diagnosed GERD treated me with a proton pump inhibitor and no more cough, just like that. And recently I had a fibroscan on my liver, office called back in reasonable amount of time and gave me the negative results rather than going in for a f/u just for Dr or nurse to tell you that."
"I am a new person! I’ve had trouble with my stomach since I was a kid, over 40 years, and I have seen SO many doctors. Dr Ali is the only one that was determined to help me. I don’t know how to thank someone for helping me be pain free except to write a review."
"Dr. Ali was truly awesome with my surgery. I would recommend him to anyone without any reservations. He was so professional and was seriously concerned with my hesitation and helped me understand the importance of ensuring I complete my colonoscopy. A real superstar and winner!"
"I had my first visit with Dr. Ali recently and I was very happy with his office. I was checked in right away and the wait time was very minimal. The office staff was nice and friendly. Dr. Ali took his time to discuss my concerns and I did not feel rushed. I know I'm in the right place with Dr. Ali's office."
"All the nurses and technicians were professional and friendly. At each step they explained what would happen. Dr. Ali was kind and friendly, and did a good job of explaining the results of my colonoscopy. Everything was done in a timely manner."
"I was scheduled to have my colonascopy done on August 28th. I did the prep on August 27th. I arrived at 6:00 am for the procedure and the hospital didn't have me in the system for the test. I called the doctors office several times and left messages. As of today September 6th nobody has responded to my messages. Very sad business 😢"
"This was my first time getting a colonoscopy and I'm so thankful it was Dr Ali. He is kind and understanding along with his staff. The only thing I didn't like was the prep, but made it thru. Thank you"
"My experience was such: The day of my procedure, I was driving around (6:15am for a 7:00 showtime). trying to locate the facility. I drove to the SA Gastrologist (Babcock) and was told I had no such appt. I then drove to the HWY151 office (located on the mailer) and was alarmed to know that that office no loner exist. My daughter noticed that the new office was on another floor. We proceeded to that office to be told, they do not provide that service but she receptionist (kind and understanding)gave me the correct address (which was a few block over from SA Gastrologist) By that time, someone from the clinic called to remind me of my appt. I explained my situation, and was kindly met with "we understand and we will wait on you." That brought relief, knowing I didn't want to reschedule. I arrived at the correct location and again met with kindness (after being more than 1 hour late). I cannot thank the staff from the front desk to the intake nurse, anesthesiologist, and of course Dr. Muhammad for making this uncomfortable experience a pleasant one."
"Dr. Ali and staff made my 1st colonoscopy experience great. The anesthesiologist explained the process very well and Dr. Ali ensured I didn’t have any questions prior. After my colonoscopy Dr. Ali explained my outcome and again ensuring I had no questions or concerns. Definitely recommend Thank you all 😃"
"My last visit was on Aug 1, 2023 for a Fibroscan on my Liver. The nurse was Michelle (?) and she was just lovely and very kind, with a beautiful smile. 😁"
"All went well, from finally getting me an appointment which i had intended a few months back with no avail. Tried again and was told sorry you were given the wrong information. Filled out all info online and at front desk, all were kind, as well as the nurses, technicians in the preop room, during procedure, Dr. Ali was friendly and made you feel calm. Also the nurse after procedure who wheeled me out. Thank you so much."
"It's a great blessing to be able to get my most up-to-date information on my colon. Dr Ali and the whole team are doing a great job with care, compassion, and helping me understanding my results. Planning for future as well. Highly recommend Dr Ali, his Gas Passer, (Anesthesiologist), and everyone else I met, and who assisted me. A pleasant "nap" my part was easy, painless, and really reassuring. Thanks again. Dr M."
"Very clean facility and all the staff was super friendly! Doc explained everything at my comprehension level. I'm sorry I snored so loud 😔 Thank you!!!"
"Dr. Ali and staff always show the greatest concern for my family's health. This is done with as little drama as possible. Urgent issues are conveyed in a way to instill confidence and minimize fear. It is an easy recommendation to make for their services!"
"The entire medical staff was courteous and friendly unfortunately I cannot say the same for one receptionist. The receptionist is the first person I spoke with and was very rude. I was disappointed because the interaction with this specific personnel set a negative tone. However, once I was taken to the back to prep for my procedure, my mind was immediately changed. There is a significant difference in attitude and atmosphere between the front staff and medical staff once I was taken to the back."
"Dr Ali is awesome doctor very compassionate and has time listen to your needs. Also his staff very nice especially Esther , And Esther thank you again for being very caring rapid response. ❤️"
"I have suffered with gastro problems for years and Dr. Ali went out of his way to help me investigate the root of my problem. He ordered many labs and tests and is very knowledgeable in his field. I sincerely feel he is genuinely trying to help people suffering from gastro related issues."
"Everything was Great. Staff was Wonderful. Really good Experience. The Doctor Listened to everything I had to say and based on that recommended a course of Action."
"My experience at Gastroenterology Consultants of San Antonio was great. It was my third colonoscopy and the best of all 3. They were very professional, friendly and it didn’t take long from arrival to have the procedure and I left shortly after it was over. Dr Ali was very thorough in explaining my results as he walked me through what he saw and did. I definitely recommend their services. Thanks, Jeff"
"Dr. Ali and his staff are amazing. Dr Ali is very personable and thorough. My colonoscopy was painless and the diagnostics that were required. I would refer anyone who needs a GI doc"
"Dr Ali and his staff are very professional and made my procedure a comfortable experience. They spent time discussing procedure and answering questions."
"The office personnel were very kind and professional. The wait was not bad. Dr. Ali was very kind and caring. He was very knowledgeable about my problem and very helpful. I would recommend him to everyone."
"I just want to say that Dr Ali was amazing he’s very smart, with just the recommendation that he give me I got lots better I’ll highly recommend him to everyone he’s the best. Thank you so much!"
"The entire process was very smooth! Dr. Ali took the time to explain everything and was great. His staff was very comforting and was very kind throughout the entire process. Thank you very much!"
"Everything went well. The staff was efficient and kind. There are 2 reasons for 4 stars instead of 5 stars. The first is that it took my nurse 3 tries to get the IV functioning. The second is that although my procedure was scheduled for 11 AM, I had to be there at 10 AM, after which I spent an hour just sitting in the waiting area. I was called back, and it was another 45 minutes before I was wheeled into the operating room. I understand the wait once I was called back, but I fail to see why I needed to be there a full hour ahead of the scheduled time. It seems to me that 15 minutes would be sufficient. I did like that the office did a follow-up call the next day, and I received the results of the tests and biopsy in only 1 week."
"My husband was referred to Dr. Ali for liver issues noticed by his regular Dr., it turns out he had Hep C! He doesn't dink alcohol so it was very surprising. Dr. Ali and the office staff basically saved his life with their discovery, care and recommendations. I will be forever grateful!"
"I arrived early, the front desk personnel was very nice and receptive. The nurses were very straightforward and professional. Everyone in the procedure room knew what they were doing and everything went well and swift."
"Dr Ali was incredible! He answered all my questions and had the perfect “bedside manner” that all patients want in a doctor. Very kind! The entire staff there were exceptional! Highly recommend even if you are a bit apprehensive."
"I saw the Dr. for a consultation and he was very friendly. He explained why the procedure is necessary and what the procedure entails. He made me feel a lot more comfortable about the procedure. I highly recommend him."
