“Barely set down in waiting room when I was called for visit. As soon as nurse took my vitals, Dr. Was ready to see me. All pertinent information and recommendations were on point. Procedures scheduled in 5 days! Normally you would have to wait months. Very pleased with the entire interaction. Most definitely recommend. ”

I am not a new patient I was a patient when he was in the clear lake area before he was in sugar land and I followed him because his bedside manner was one of the best in my 56 years of life. His talent in the procedure room was what made me Hooked he drains a pocket of fluid off my pancreas without cutting me, he is frank with you and let’s you know if you keep doing what you are going to keep doing what your doing this is what is going to happen I love a doctor that will talk to you in reality not give you fluff

I really liked the doc. Office staff called me the morning of the appointment to try to gather pertinent information even though the appointment had been made two weeks earlier. She seemed disorganized and not prepared. Nursing staff was great.
