"First of all it was like pulling teeth to get through on the phone to a real person..Then they keep sending texts to fill out a bunch of stuff for a consultation..If you try to call, you get that all over again. If you are lucky someone answers. Besides that, I really like Dr. Rambath and he takes the time to answer your questions. He lets me record him talking since I can't remember everything..lol"

"I don't know why this is my wife. I had my visit recently. My visit was great - questions answered and advice given. Jon (Mike ) Rainbolt"
"I feel he listened and way concerned for needs but he never examined me. And he did not explain the EGD procedure to me or what I could do to relieve the pain I was in until the procedure. So would say he could have been a little more informative."
"San Marcus digestive disease is really good. I’ve been patient of theirs for many many years and consider them very good."
"Dr. Merriwether was awesome, made everything easy to understand. Thank you"
"I had my first consult with Dr. Merriwether ; what a breath of fresh air!! Finally! A young doctor! I have been to at least 100 doctors visits in the last few years and I was very impressed with his perspective and insight. This guy is smart. !!NOT An EGOTISTICAL MANIAC!! He was kind, empathetic and humble ; these days that is hard to come by. He made no personal judgements on my disease. In fact he gave me hope about my situation and explained my condition. he made an accurate assessment and started a treatment plan. 10/10 people. Don’t let age fool you. Stop going to elderly doctors who have nothing else in their lives so they work until they die."
"The Dr made me feel like I mattered and I was very comfortable"
"Office staff was very friendly. Dr Meriwether was professional and knowledgeable. I was pleased with my experience there."

"I have been a patient of Dr. Shannon Marek for many years. He and his wonderful staff at TDDC have always taken great care of me and also my family members. They are very knowledgeable, professional, and caring."
"I like Dr. Meriwether. I've only seen him for the initial visit so far but I was impressed. He seems to be caring and he actually listened both to the answers to the questions he posed and to my questions and readily answered them with patience. He also took time out of his busy day to call me and discuss some questions I had that I had sent via their patient portal app."
"She spent the time and listened to my questions and answers they."
"Great people!"
"I recently had a procedure done by Dr Neghme and have been very pleased with the surgery team, the outcome, making the arrangements and the follow-up with TDDC practitioner nurse via zoom (as I live hours away). I received detailed information on the findings both via a written record with color photos and via zoom where my questions were answered in detail by NP Kristin Means. I feel that I am in good hands with the care I received and will definitely return for any future concerns or routine folliw-up."
"Got an appointment quickly. Office staff was very helpful & friendly. Dr Meriwether took time with me and really listened. Highly recommend him and his staff"
"I have a very complicated gastrointestinal history that requires fairly aggressive treatment. I see a leading specialist out of state and when we moved here was very worried that I wouldn’t be able to continue receiving adequate care. Dr. Merriweather was amazing not only at listening but also at being willing to work with the out-of-state specialists to ensure that I continue to receive the care that I need. I will be continuing to see him as my local provider and my out of state team virtually, they will collaborate. Highly impressed."

"Dr Cluley has been very helpful in explaining my concerns with my liver. Although we have not met in person but only via telephone, he evaluated the testing and imaging results very thoroughly and but to rest my concerns. During this time of Covid-19 it is especially important to interact with a doctor who is not rushed and takes the time to provide reassurance that all is (in my case) well."
"I appreciated the Doctor the first time I sat with him. He was so knowledgeable and respectful to me. Then I was able to meet with some of the nurses that work with him and they were the same. I came home from my first visit and called a dear friend about my experience, and she replied, "that's my doctor, isn't he just wonderful?" I really knew for sure I was in great hands."
"Recently went there with uncontrolled acid reflux, dr Moore was very professional and seemed to be honestly interested in what I was going through.
