"Holy smokes, this place rocks!! Originally I was told by Ascension Seton that it'd be the end of January before I got an appointment. I called this location and they were offering me appointments as soon as the same week I was calling. I scheduled for this past week with Sarah and she was awesome. Every possible question I asked she had a thorough answer for that explored all methods of possible treatment. At no point did I feel rushed or pressured into making any decisions. I hope you never have something going on that causes you to need a GI Specialist but if you do, this is the place you should be going."
"Knowledgeable, friendly and professional. Dr Godell, Dr Neighbors, informative and helpful. I have been seeing Dr Godell for years and always feel like I am in good hands!"

"Very pleased with the attention & help from the staff. Doctor’s assistant was professional & attentive, listened to my questions & explained thoroughly & very kind."
"Well, my experience with Dr. Shaun Maloney was great, again! He proposed a different medication than Flomax, liked my duck joke and sent me off in under 10 mins! However, my 1st appt was canceled without notifying me as was my 2nd appt! The 3rd appt worked but I had a 50 min wait in a small office w/no windows or space to move around. Frustrating. Staff was pleasant and smiled a lot ."
"I have a very complicated GI history beginning with surgeries in 1997. I have suffered terribly with GI issues for 25 years. Dr. Chris Godell is the first physician who has correctly diagnosed my conditions and prescribed treatment that have helped me get my life back. His NP and nurse always respond to my messages promptly . Together we all make a great team that manages my care."

"Honestly, this place is worth it just for Sarah Lear. If you get her for your first consolation, she’s awesome at listening and at taking the time explaining why my body does what it does, or go into other details and concerns with you. My brain exploded when she explained something thats been on going since I was a child, so glad to understand my gastro-biology better. Havent seen Dr. Goodall in a minute, but he’s also a very patient doctor as well. He performed an endoscopy after my stomach was behaving funny from a stomach virus I got over seas. All has been slowly improving since, and his assurance was greatly appreciated after he explained in detail what he saw."
"The appointment with Saral Lear was pleasant. Her questions were pleasant and to the point. She has good listening skills and had a plain of action to try. It is too early in the process to make a decision on the plain of action. Keep it up Sara."
"I couldn't see my doctor because he was booked so I made an appointment with his PA for a followup due to a recent ER visit. She did a great job of explaining my condition and what to expect. She was very knowledgeable & professional. I'd have no problem seeing her again if I can't see my doctor."
"Dr. Dalapathi and his staff were wonderful, he took the time to listen to all my concerns and was able to get me scheduled for my procedure right away."

"The staff, nurses etc were all super kind and great! I was able to get an appointment and wait in the office was super minimal. I wish all my doctors visits went this smooth. They were also super patient with me when giving instructions and hearing my concerns, I didn’t feel rushed and everyone was super kind"

"Dr. John J. Ziebert MD appointment consultation procedure visit on the November 28th was a very attentive visit with Dr. John Ziebert taking time to review all of my past and present health issues and all of my medical history before when we will be scheduling my colonoscopy procedure appointment!!! Dr. John Ziebert MD was a very friendly and knowledgeable in answering all of my concerns in relation of having a colonoscopy procedure done!!! I highly recommend Dr. John Ziebert MD to any new patients that may want to schedule an colonoscopy procedure consultation appointment visit at his Forest Creek clinic location on Wyoming Springs Avenue in Round Rock!!! Jerry Stefek"
"I have been going to Austin Gastroenterology since 2017. They are an amazing group. Tara Conley has been great. She is very thorough. She listens to my every word and complaint and then gives me a solution. If those solutions do not attempt to work she does not give up on me. She WILL get to the bottom of the issue until I am at tip top shape and then stays in contact to make sure I stay there. I never have to wait more than 5 minutes to go back to see my provider. The Links Location is very clean and well organized. They always make me feel welcomed and comfortable. I will tell you Ms Conley's hands are always cold...LOL! We laugh about it all the time!!! Thank you for your service Tara! You are greatly appreciated! ; )"
"Julie was very thorough and told me about the new liver scan. I appreciate the knowledgeable staff who set up my procedures. I left feeling that I was in good capable care."

"I think the doctors and PAs at Austin Gastroenterology are top notch and they listen carefully to your medical issues before they recommend or prescribe meds to address your problems. I have been going to them for many years and I always feel good when I leave an appointment."
"Quick to get an appt. The PA, Tara Conley was amazing. Spent adequate time with me, answered all my questions and I felt comfortable with the game plan at the end of the appt. Very well ran office."
"My experience at Austin Gastroenterology couldn't have been better. Dr Godell's personality and self confidence were encouraging and appreciated. Of course, I had prayed that God would bless the work of Dr Godell's hands and the hands of his entire nursing staff. He did bless everyone and especially me. But it is obvious he has chosen his staff with caring people. All the nurses and everyone I saw where happy, well trained, full of energy, had great senses of humor. I have always has positive relationships with my healthcare providers. But this experience was exceptional and pleasant. I can without a doubt recommend Austin Gastroenterology to anyone who needs their specialty. Thank you to all the staff who obviously enjoy your job and the people you work with. I appreciate each of you."
"Austin Gastrointerology, specifically Dr. Dalapathi and his team, provided excellent care. He always took his time to explain my symptoms, what they meant, and my options for treatment. He followed up with me on my progress and seemed to really care about my treatment plan. I could not be more happy with my care from this team. I highly recommend them."
"I was hoping to see Dr Godell and I waited sometime for this appointment only to be told within the week scheduled that he would not be in that office on that day."

"I have nothing but positive things to say about Austin Gastroenterology. I have had the pleasure of seeing both Dr. Christopher Godell and Lyndsay Solimine A.G.P.C.N.P. I have received the utmost of care from both providers. Between the two, I regularly see Lyndsay Solimine and I must say she is truly a gem. She always listens, finds a solution and always have your best interest. If it was not for her care, I would not of had any semblance of normalcy. I highly suggest any and all patients to see Lyndsay Solimine and/or Dr. Godell. You will receive not only phenomenal care, but providers who will do all they can to ensure your improved health."
"I have been seeing Lindsay Solimine for two years she is knowledgeable,caring,friendly, and cares about the patients well being. I highly recommend her if you are having gastro problems. Last week saw Julie Neighbors and she was great too. Also Dr Godell is great friendly guy."
"Recently, I visited the Forest Creek location to discuss some intestinal issues. I saw the PA, Julie, and she went into detail explanation about my symptoms. She has been with Dr. Godell for over 20 years and her experience and knowledge is exceptional. She prescribed some antibiotics and told me they would be pricey. When the medication came in, I discovered that it was too expensive. I called to discuss the alternatives, but Julie was not in that day. I spoke with Becca (Medical Assistant) and explained my situation. Becca said she would get the message to Julie and would do some research on the medication. The next day I received a call from Julie. She informed me that some samples were arranged and I could pick them up in a few day. The entire staff has always been extremely helpful. I am thoroughly please with the service and professionalism. I would give this office 10 stars if it were possible."
"Dr. Dalapathi and his staff are absolutely incredible. He pays attention to you during the appointment and actually takes the time to help you understand what’s going on. His level of care is excellent. Wouldn’t visit anyone else! 5 Stars is easy this time :)"
"Dr. Dalapathi was one of the doctors that saved my life when I was taken to ST. Davids hospital. He then did my follow up examination after I was able to go home. I found Dr. Dalapathi to be a very caring soul. Through out his care during my recovery he has been extremely thorough and explained information clearly as well as answer all of my questions. I will remember him for the rest of my life and be thankful I had the opportunity to meet him."

"After a second colonoscopy, two Gastroenterologist’s within 6 months, and an ever-prevailing, undiagnosed “problem”, my OB/Gyn referred me to Austin Gastroenterology. Frustrated and resistant to being subjected to another, “Everything looks fine!” diagnoses, I was scheduled with Dr. Meyers. He was the answer to my prayers for a “good” doctor: someone who would actually listen, was knowledgeable, addressed my concerns with more than “shop talk” and spoke in a language that I could understand. More importantly, I prayed for a doctor that would be sincerely interested in my health, would actively seek a diagnoses and map out a plan for my treatment/healing. During my FIRST visit, I knew that he was willing and able to do just that! Dr. Meyer’s is very personable. The visits to his office are bearable; there are no excessive wait times, not even in the waiting room, and my office visits with him are not rushed. My visits with the other two (within 6 months) Gastroenterologist’s, at another facility, seemed like a complete waste of time. Although my insurance company has been less than willing to cover my treatment, Dr. Meyers and his team have repeatedly advocated on my behalf. We are STILL in that fight. Unfortunately, my diagnoses requires on-going treatment which means I will continue to need a Gastroenterologist; BUT, I am fortunate and confident that Dr. Meyers will be my doctor for a long time to come. I highly recommend Dr. Meyers. My husband, now 50, and never having visited a Gastroenterologist is now his patient."
"Dr. Liebermann is tops in his field! He listens when you speak and doesn't discount your fears or feeling. Never rushes you in and out. AWESOME! ! The office staff and nurses at AG on Links are kind, patient, and efficent. I drive from Waco to see Dr. Liebermann."

"Dr. Thomas Lieberman is a competent, knowledgeable, assuring, physician with the ability to hear what going on completely and help facilitate healing in the body.

"Great doctors!! Take their time to explain things to you and answer questions you may have. Only problem the reception personal need to be more friendly and act like they care."
"Very organized friendly and professional staff and Doctor.... I hope i never need these types of proceedures again..but if I do I know who will be doing them for me... I was in and finished before I knew it... My time was important to them as was their time important to me..

"Great visit, the facility and staff are always very atenitive and nice. Julie is very knowledgeable of her work and can always answer any question and be very thourgh and informative. I did have one item that I'm still trying to address but, I believe it is on the insurance side. The medication that was prescribed was in the system as covered by insurance, but when I went to pick it up it was not. Still trying to find out where the disconnect is it at . Thanks so much ."
