Review for Dr. Austin
She failed to review my case and during our initial visit told me my pain could be explained by my symptoms and discussed surgery options and went ahead to move forward. 2 weeks later my symptoms worsen she denies stating she could help these symptoms and denied I brought them to the initial visit...

Had a colonoscopy with him. Terrible experience. Not interested in my history and seemed bored when I insisted on telling him about my past history. In a hurry and dismissive. I have no idea if he really examined me thoroughly. Will never see him again.
