I made an appointment in June or July in preparation for another colonoscopy this year. The earliest date available was the end of August. Less than 48 hours before my appointment I received a phone call from someone that said they were having trouble verifying my insurance. My insurance hasn't changed. However, she then told me that the practice no longer accepts Medicare. I don't know if it was my Medicare plan or all Medicare plans. She didn't offer any further explanation, just told me that I couldn't see the doctor. I asked about paying out of pocket, and she just said, 'No'. The doctor is great! I know she's been with this practice for a long time. In my case they had all of my insurance information since the last colonoscopy, nothing had changed. I received no less than five robocalls informing me that I was due for a colon screening this year. If they were no longer accepting my insurance plan, I should not have been able to even schedule an appointment. The only contact I should have received was an alert informing me that my insurance was no longer being accepted by the practice. Now I'm left to 'shop' for a gastro-doc. Not happy.

It's hard to find a good doctor. I had Dr. Khandawalla. While he's better than Dr. Thompson in…read morebedside manner, he's not great in it. He is unashamedly money hungry, wanting to do a colonoscopy every year. I mentioned that I was still taking indigo for my UC when we were already out in the hallway. He laughed at me and asked the doctor who was standing next to him if he ever heard about it. It's the best medication I've used so far and I don't even have to go through other people to get it. I had a great gastroenterologist not long before him, unfortunately for me he retired. After one of my colonoscopies, they sent a bill for $800 for labs for the polyps. After a million calls to them, one of the staff talked about it on the phone with me and said that next time, I need to tell them at the clinic to only use providers that are covered by my insurance. Be ready for 3 bills in addition to the $1000 that you have to pay upfront for each colonoscopy. I switched to a doctor who does their colonoscopies at Memorial Endoscopy Center. The total for everything ended up being like $1500 with them. With Khandawalla, I had to pay $2200. I did see Dr. Thompson first but only went to him once because he was rude and not at all delicate about my prognosis. That was hands down the worst bedside manner I've ever received. But Khandawalla was pretty rude and annoying too. The front desk staff care more about the socializing they are doing with each other than about talking to patients. They are stiff necked while interacting with patients.

I will NEVER go to this place again. I was scheduled for a colonoscopy and waited 2 hours after scheduled time in waiting room. Was taken back and waited another 45 minutes after undressing. When they came in the procedure room. The doctor got started. I did not recvd an IV. I was in alot of pain and told them repeatedly it did not feel right. The nurse, not sure if she was a nurse or not. I was still VERY alert, and she proceeded to give me more sedation (I did not ask for) and then Dr Clemmons entered and started the procedure. I felt the pipe tubing and lots of stomach pushed (literally) and I was screaming in pain. No one even asked me if I was ok. Horrible experience. With all the anesthesia I just blacked out and hours later in recovery my husband appeared. A lady told me the Dr would be in to talk to me, and I do NOT have any recollection of any. Upon meeting Dr Clemmons at first I thought he was a nice doctor but whatever his reasons where I felt literally like I was a number. No one followed up they gave me paperwork AND SAID THEY WILL FOLLOW UP IN A FEW DAYS. Never DID. I took the findings to another doctor he asks what this is. I'm so embarrassed hate that I allowed this office to do my colonoscopy. not even sure i trust the results. I called to speak with him, and it was way too many pauses, he was very disconnected.

I am a former employee of Dr. Clemons' office, and I want to share my experience. In my opinion,…read morethe procedure rooms were not consistently cleaned or sanitized properly, which was extremely concerning to witness in a medical setting. I also observed that the instruments used for in-office colonoscopy procedures did not appear to be properly sanitized, which raised serious safety concerns. The work environment felt hostile and toxic, and the way staff were treated in front of patients was unprofessional and humiliating. It did not feel like a place where employees--or patients--were treated with respect. There is also a very high turnover rate, and the office was consistently understaffed during my time there. We were repeatedly told that hiring was coming, but in my experience, it never happened--patients even commented on how often employees were leaving. On top of being short-staffed, the manager repeatedly emphasized that the office had quotas to meet, which put extreme pressure on a team of only four staff members. The phones rang constantly, yet the manager would say things like, "that's not my job, I will not be answering phones." HR also made comments such as, "I'm very confused as to why it's a heavy workflow," which, in my experience, showed no empathy and no understanding of what the team was actually facing. In the procedure room, there often did not seem to be enough staff to safely support the workflow. There was no nurse present to start IVs, and I was concerned that some staff did not appear to have the proper licenses for the tasks they were performing. I also personally witnessed situations where patients seemed overly medicated and at times were unsteady or appeared at risk of falling--these moments were alarming to me. In my experience, HR and the doctor's wife were not present in the office, so they did not see the reality of what was happening day-to-day. Decisions seemed to be based only on what the manager said, not what was actually occurring. The doctor himself works extremely hard and truly cares about his patients, but in my opinion, he is being overworked and unsupported by the people around him. Many of the colleagues who are still there are struggling in silence. Just like me, they need their jobs, so they stay quiet--but that doesn't mean the problems don't exist. I finally spoke up about serious concerns, and in my experience, it completely backfired. I was laid off, and the excuse given was my "time," even though patients and coworkers knew I always did my job to the best of my ability. From what I witnessed, the focus seemed to be money and metrics, not patient care. I also saw test results sit for long periods with no follow-up, leaving patients waiting without communication. I am truly thankful for the patients I was able to help during my time there. Supporting them was the only positive part of my experience, and I am grateful for every person who trusted me. Patients should know they have a voice. If you believe you have observed unsafe or unprofessional practices, you have the right to report concerns. You can file a complaint with the Texas Medical Board. You may also report concerns to local health authorities in Houston if you feel patient safety is at risk. As a community, we deserve better. Speaking up is how we protect one another and push for change--no one should feel ignored or unsafe in a medical office. Based on what I experienced, I would not recommend this office. To anyone reading this: do not stay silent. Protect yourself, trust your instincts, and take action. Your health and safety come first--choose a provider who treats it that way.

Hey, I'm a realist & things happen beyond our control so the clinic being a part of the hospital was a big plus to me. We arrived at my appointed time. The front desk ladies were awesome & checkin was easy. We were shown to a waiting room & surprisingly my name was called a very short while later. I was shown to my private bed & the admitting nurse went through all the paperwork with me, I changed into a very fashionable gown & she popped in the IV (she was a good stick, the IV was in on the first try & did not leave a bruise!). After another short wait, H gave me a kiss & I was on my way. I was wheeled into the room where the procedure wad top take place. There were a few people there, all busy seeing things up. They greeted me warmly. This is when I decided to close my eyes because I did not want to see the tools & whatnot they were laying out. The next thing I knew I was waking up & H was holding my hand. I was told the prep was the worst part of a colonoscopy & it's true. Whatever drug they used worked wonders without leaving me woozy & unsteady. I felt good enough to go out for breakfast. It's like nothing happened. Easy peasy. The staff at this clinic are phenomenal. The nurses are the best & they are all angels! Caring & empathetic, these women & gentlemen were top notch. For something I was not looking forward to & worried about, it turned out to be a very nice experience.

When I asked if it wasn't up to the Doctor to make that determination after an initial appointment, she informed me they didn't do initial appointments (if that makes sense at all).
