"Dr. Houston is awesome. I've had three colonoscopies over the past 15 years. He and his staff are very friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. So glad I found Dr. Houston."
"Colonoscopy... nothing glamorous about this procedure! Dr. Houston and his band of merry staff go out of their way to make sure you're as comfortable with the procedure as you can be (under the circumstances š) ...the pre-op visit is very welcome, you can get all your questions answered by the anesthesiologist and doctor! The nurses and support staff are intuitive and accommodating! They ALL have a fabulous sense of humor!!! They also follow up the next day to check on you!! Kudos to Dr. Houston and his staff!šš»šš»šš»"
"Very professional.. Had photos and findings before I was discharged from colonoscopy,, staff and facility and anesthesia very nice.. Great experience"
"Dr Houston did an upper endoscopy and a colonoscopy on me on the 16th of October and did a very thorough and professional examination. I have had him perform past colonoscopy on me before and so I trust he will do a great job !!! Thanks Dr Houston"
"Dr. Houston & the staff at Lone Star Endoscopy Keller were great! The patient care was exceptional and I would recommend them to anyone needing GI care!"
"I have been seeing Dr Jody Houston for over 22 years. I have always felt very comfortable in their office and their day-treatment facilities as well. The staff is always friendly and helpful. Dr Houston is one of the finest physicians I have ever seen. He is so kind , he puts me at ease right away. He keeps up to date on his specialty and research. Taking the time to listen and answering my questions, I am always confident that his treatment plans and any referrals made are just what I need. I am very blessed to be in the care of Dr. Houston and TDDC."
"Great nurses, doctors and facility. Professional yet with a sense of humour (when applicable) and very attentive. Not somewhere many look forward to visiting.but if you must goā¦. This is not a bad place to be!"
"āI highly recommend Dr. Jody Houston for anyone needing a gastroenterologist. From my first visit, he made me feel completely at ease, even when discussing topics like bowel movements and colon health that no one really wants to talk about. He took the time to educate me on the importance of getting a colonoscopy early and walked me through the process so that I felt informed and comfortable. When I went in for the procedure, everything was seamlessāit was the best sleep of my life, and I left with the great news that I donāt need another colonoscopy for 10 years! I suffer from both celiac disease and diverticulitis, and Dr. Houston has always given me clear advice on what to do and what to avoid to manage my conditions. I trust him completely with my health, and so should you!ā"
"I was not super excited about getting a scope, as one would imagine, but Dr. Houston was very professional and gave me a clear and easily understandable report from my procedure. Highly recommend for the over-50 screening colonoscopy! Only negative was it took me several months to secure an appt!"
"I have been to Doctor Houston several times over the years. Always he and the staff and operating room personnel are top notch. Would highly recommend."
"Great office and staff. Everyone is so helpful, happy, and busy! The nurses were so friendly and professional. They have perfected their process and were so efficient. Dr. Houston is thorough, communicative, knowledgeable, and funny. I appreciate the wonderful beside manners. Was recommended to him by a few friends and highly recommend."
"I'm a retired healthcare provider, so the standards for my own personal providers is really high. Dr. Houston, his staff and the good folks at the endoscopy center in Keller met and surpassed all of my expectations. He is incredibly kind and personable. He explained everything very well (I was in the neurosurgery world, so I don't know a lot about the GI world!). The procedure was easy peasy and completely uneventful. My friend, Ryan Pond, CRNA, did my anesthetic and he did a superb job. I couldn't recommend this doctor and his entire team more highly. Thanks for practicing competent, caring medicine!! RJ"
"The facility is really clean and organize and I was treated with the outmost respect and actually with white gloves. Everyone introduced themselves to me and explained everything that they were going to do. Doctor Houston came after I recovered from the anesthesia to check on me and explained the findings."
"Dr Houston and staff were absolutely amazing. The level of professionalism and how personable they were was such a great experience. From the point of registration until the next day follow up call, they made me feel reassured that I was in good hands. Signed ~ A Happy Patient"
"The team that worked with Dr. Houston was amazing. I have been telling everyone and anyone who need a colonoscopy to check out Lone Star. I cannot say enough great things about you all. Thank you so much for your caring spirit. May God bless each and everyone of you."
"Dr Houston is very respectful, kind and always makes sure to answer any questions and is very detailed. My experience has always been 5 stars. I highly recommend Dr. Houston. The staff at the facility were very friendly and made me feel comfortable."

"What an incredible experience I had at Dr. Houstonās office as a new patient! I was expecting the typical visitā¦ Arrive early Fill out a bunch of paperwork Sit and wait Go to triage Wait some more (typically a lot) Dr. comes in for a 10 minute visit Wait some more Finally pay and leave 90+ minutes later This was DEFINITELY not the case with Dr. Houston and his amazing team. Since I filled out my paperwork online in advance, I only waited 5 minutes in reception and was then ushered into the exam room. Dr. Houston appeared less than 5 minutes after that and spent probably 20+ minutes talking with me about my concerns. He was very punctual, thorough, provided enlightening information that I could understand, and was very respectful of my time. What a refreshing experience! I was leaving his office within 45 minutes of my arrival time; unheard of these days with doctorās visits. Thank you Dr. Houston for such a pleasant visit! : )"

"Dr. Jody Houston and staff were fantastic. No different than the last procedure I had done 5 years ago. My appointment was on time, everything was explained well, and the procedure went exactly as expected. 100% satisfied. Big thanks to Susan who checked me in and got me ready to go, Melissa who took me back and Amanda who put me to sleep. Best nap ever. Dr. Houston did his part and I was done and off to lunch."

"This dr found a spot on my pancreas and sent me to have it biopsy. Which turned out to be early stage of cancer. We were looking for hernia so to have found this and sent me to surgeon for surgery. Was very thankful for him finding and sending me to get it removed."
"I would suggest that your lobby needs Iām more inviting look, Maybe some greenery or plants some better lighting maybe lamps tables HOME look. Your restroom needs a bench or something more than a chair so you can put your clothes on it so it feels more inviting also. Your nurses and. Staff were very helpful and kind and professional. Thank you, Mr. Buffa."
"I canāt believe I am saying this, but I actually look forward to my next colonoscopy because of how well Dr Houston, his anesthesiologist and nurses took care of me. I highly recommend Lone Star for great bed side manners and service excellence."
"Dr. Jody Houston, MD performed endoscopy and colonoscopy on me on January 4, 2024 at Lonestar Endoscopy Center in Keller, Texas. The entire process from checkin to recovery and discharge is streamlined without any waiting. Dr. Houston spent time with me to understand any changes in my health since the last visit. He is very courteous and tries to build positivity in patients. During the procedure, I received treatment from a team of 4 nurses and a technician. They were all professionals and well experienced. I highly recommend Dr. Houston for GI related evaluations and treatments."
"Always above and beyond. Staff and Dr. Houston treat you like you are their family. Those are not just words but YEARS of experience. He works on vacation, his staff fights to the matter for you when insurance is acting up. I can't express how incredible Dr Houston and Janice and Teresa are."
"Dr. Houston and all the staff at Lone Star Endoscopy are fabulous! They run a very organized practice, yet with a human touch. Everyone I dealt with was kind and thorough in their work. Dr. Houston has excellent bedside manner, answering all questions before proceeding. I highly recommend Lone Star Endoscopy and Dr. Jody Houston."
"The Entire Staff at LoneStar Endoscopy Keller did a fantastic job. The nurses and Anesthesia were very friendly and the care provided was second to none. My Gastroenterologist Dr. Houston made me aware of what to expect before the procedure and did a great job explaining the findings to me after my procedure was completed. I was extremely pleased with my visit and will definitely continue to use LoneStar Keller for all of my future procedures. Thank you!!"

"Dr. Houston Always makes me feel comfortable about my uncomfortable event ahead. I know that he will keep me informed of any issues that arise. I love the people that work around him everyone is wonderful."
"I recently had both endoscopy and colonoscopy completed by Dr Jody Houston and staff at the Grapevine GI facilities. Prep aside (who likes that?) I highly recommend he and his team. Prep instructions were thorough with intermittent text reminders about next steps. Endoscopy center staff were very attentive, pre and post procedures, and clearly patient comfort focused. The schedule was kept on track with little to no waiting. Post procedures Dr Houston communicated how they went and highlighted important findings. He also gave me a copy of the reports before I left. A nurse made a follow up status call the next day which I appreciated. In an era of increasingly mechanized medical procedures I recommend this team to anyone approaching time for either procedure."
"Dr Houston is amazing. Very confident and knowledgeable. Discovered things I was doing that I had no idea were probably harming me instead of potentially helping me. Facility is very nice and clean and office staff was super nice as well."
"In a family type of atmosphere, nurses and physicians in here are very friendly, and make you feel as a valued patient & an appreciated human being. Dr Jody & Team make it easy, stress-free and enjoyable to undergo this complex and serious medical procedure like it wasn't one."
