"Everyone was very nice and accommodating. The Dr Magee answered all my questions and was very cordial. I definitely would recommend Digestive Health & Associates."
"Dr. McGee is a great Doctor, but it is pretty much impossible to reach someone to schedule an appointment, schedule a procedure, etc. If you leave a message it usually takes someone a few days to call you back."
"Everyone was so kind and helpful. Very professional staff who explained everything they were doing and why. Dr. Kumaravel is the best doctor ever. She always has a smile on here face and is happy to explain things to you."
"I was referred to Dr. Magee after a CT showed my gallbladder has problems. The referring doctor said that “they may want to take out your gallbladder”, so I assumed that Dr. Magee would do that if needed. At the beginning of my appointment, I learned that Dr. Magee isn’t a surgeon. He was personable and helpful, answering my questions about my condition, and he referred me to his colleague, a GI surgeon. I would recommend Dr. Magee without reservation for patients with GI issues."
"Dr. Bob Anderson and his experienced team, from the Anesthesiologist to the Nursing staff, seamlessly performed their duties to minimize any qualms I had regarding the colonoscopy. The genuine care and attention given to me during a stressful time was greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Digestive Health Services to anyone undergoing a procedure of this nature."
"Experience was very good. They addressed my questions on days prior to my procedure, easy check in, nurse answered questions and was very helpful and friendly. Dr. Anderson was great. He is very friendly and met with me right after procedure to explain and answer any questions. Everything went very smooth."
"I recently had the pleasure of being treated by Dr. Mantas, and I must say, he is a fantastic doctor. It's incredibly rare to find someone who can handle both upper GI and lower GI issues, but Dr. Mantas is an expert at both. Since I needed help with both, it was amazing to have a doctor who could take care of all my gastrointestinal needs. Beyond his dual expert ability, Dr. Mantas has a fabulous bedside manner and is truly patient-focused. He really cares about his patients and takes the time to listen to their concerns. During my appointment, I never felt rushed. I could share all my issues, and Dr. Mantas listened intently and thoughtfully. He makes sure he thoroughly understands your situation, so you feel heard and valued. On top of that, Dr. Mantas is just a genuinely kind and nice person. I feel so lucky to have found such a wonderful doctor who not only provides excellent medical care but also offers a supportive and understanding environment. I highly recommend Dr. Mantas to anyone in need of a skilled and compassionate gastroenterologist. Robert"

"Facilities are excellent. Staff is very attentive, professional and cordial. I would suggest better communication with the patient’ driver before the procedure to be sure any needed information and questions are addressed."
"If this is from Dr. Mantas office, I didn't like the system. I felt worse than being at parkland hospital. Starting with the person who answers, when trying to make the appointment; telling the consequences for not showing up, changing the appointment, etc. Making us to hang up, without getting to talk to someone, and they don't always return the call! I never got the right information... Won't recommend this place to my friends."

"This colonoscopy was as good as a colonoscopy could be. I had wonderful detailed prep instructions. My medication for the prep came a week before I needed it. There was no problem with taking the medication. The office ran efficiently. I was grateful to be knocked out for the procedure. I suffered no ill effects afterwards. Thank you all so much for a great job!"
"Dr. Mantas always takes as much time as I need. He answers questions and shows me on the picture charts what he is talking about. While I would prefer to not be there he makes it worth the time."

"I have enjoyed Dr. Magee as my gastroenterologist for many years. He and his staff make the uncomfortable prospect of needing a colonoscopy bearable."
"The doctor was really nice and explained things well. Most of the nurses I had were very nice besides one of the male nurses who acted unprofessionally. I understand nurses talk about their patients but I don’t appreciate it when one talks negatively about you where you can hear it."
"Dr. Mantas and staff, Leaving reviews is not my thing but in this case I'm happy to do it. I want yo thank Dr. Mantas and his entire staff for their professionalism and kindness. It was my first colonoscopy and my heart rate was elevated and spirits were low. From the time I checked in until the time I left I was showered with kindness and informed of every step during the procedure. The follow up/post procedure info was timely and informative. I am happy to give a review to an amazing medical group. Hats off to all of you for being a special team that takes care of people when they need it most. Glenn"

"I absolutely love Dr. Kumaravel. She literally saved my life. In 2016 she diagnosed me with liver cirrhosis. Over the next 4 years she took care of my condition in very loving and compassionate way. She kept me alive long enough until I could receive a liver transplant in 2021. She kept on top of my condition through the whole process and when the time came she referred me to Dr. Vahora at the Liver & Kidney Institute. Dr. Vahora was another great doctor at Dallas Methodist Hospital. Dr. Kumaravel has now become my wife's GI doctor as well. Anytime someone asked me about my liver transplant, I always refer them to Dr. Kumaravel for any digestive issues. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

"I had seen Dr. Veena Kumaravel about 7 years ago. It was time for me to get some more procedures done, since I was about 2 yrs overdue, so I contacted her office again. The intake nurse was very kind and thorough. As far as Dr. Kumaravel goes, I don’t think I have ever dealt with such a kind doctor. Our visit was a FaceTime call, but honestly, I was able to ask lots of questions and she was very clear in her answers to me. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a doctor with great manners and makes the patient feel special. Thank you to you and your office personnel for being so nice and quick to take care of things."
