Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Not Interested In the patient.
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.

Horrible bedside manner. Met with me for 15 min and thought he knew everything about my illness and dismissed the findings my previous two GI specialists. He was arrogant, close-minded, and acted annoyed to have to listen to me and take time out from his schedule for a visit. He basically said that he has never had a patient/read about someone with my symptoms so no use in trying to find a cure- take this pill three times a day for the rest of your life. He made me cry during the visit he was so mean- no doctor has ever made me cry before. BTW, I saw him twice thinking he must have had a bad day the first time. NEVER again. Read the other reviews, apparently I am not the only one who had this rude experience... just saying, do your research. I was referred to the clinic and was randomly assigned to this provider.

Arrogant, condescending, dismissive. Absolutely uninterested in listening to the patient - but quick to dismiss any questions.

Dr. Austin has terrible Bedside manner. Very snippy and condescending. He acts like he is annoyed from questions. Glared at me the whole time anytime I had a question. He should be fired. He is the worst doctor I have seen in years and I would never recommend him.

Dr. Austin performed my colonoscopy this morning. He was friendly, answered all questions, was highly professional, focused 100% on my care. The procedure was accomplished without incident - no perforations, no complications. He trusted his competent team to relay my results and aftercare as he went on to the next patient. As he should. My pre-op nurse, Emily, my sedation nurse, Nikki, and my post-op nurse (Lee?) were all proficient and patient. I will definitely return to Dr. Austin if needed.

He was very rude and didn't explain things well. He didn't even want to come see us after doing my husband's colonoscopy. We had to request that he comes to see us and he acted annoyed. In addition, he didn't send a follow-up letter after the abnormal pathology was finalized.
