"This office saved my life, simple as that. May 8- 2023 was the start of several rough months, including 4 surgeries. I am better now, and it was only by the hand of my original surgeon, and this office. If you are looking for a Drs office that will make you better, this one is for you. How do I know, they did it for me:"
"Have been under Dr S care since 2021. I absolutely love his conservative approach to care. Just because you have insurance and need a procedure, he’s tried less invasive options first then moved towards scheduling a procedure. Yes he could have just gone straight to procedure and billed ins, but by his conservative approach, I was able to lessen the degree of what he needed to do. Office staff also responds to my messages well and in a timely manner."
"Dr Surapaneni is a very nice doctor. He listens, understands and explains everything. I had no side effects from my colonoscopy, and he also understood how hard it is to finish the prep. He got me a prescription for pills to take with a lot of water instead. My follow-up appointment was good. He answered all my questions very patiently and I felt good when I left the office. I would highly recommend him."

"I worked with Dr. Surapaneni for many years as a registered nurse before becoming one of his patients.

"This is the G.I. doctor you want to see! I’ve had stomach issues for years, I’ve been diagnosed with IBS diverticulitis and so forth. I’ve seen all of the major names in the Clearlake area and nobody could ever help me.

"I am a new 50 yr old and my wife wanted me to get the colonoscopy that I always used to fear as an 8 year old kid at the old barber shop . All the old men were open about their TMI stories of the doctor visits while I tried to just concentrate on drinking the barber shop icee cold glass bottle of coke that cost 10 cents. I still had that fear at 50 until they woke me up after the procedure. Dr. Surapaneni and all the nurses and admin and anesthesiologists that I came in contact with kept me too busy with easy talk and then it was over. Thank God that he also had good news that all is ok. No need to fear anymore until I get any problems within 10 years and I will dread that super sweet flush drink prep.Better than the ocean salt water gallon alternative."
"Dr. Surapaneni listened to my personal concerns and promptly gave me checks to address them. He accepted my request to perform endoscopy without sedation because my insurance did not cover anesthesia. He walked me through the entire procedure and I felt at ease the entire time. He's knowledgeable overall and has an easygoing character. I would definitely recommend Dr. Surapaneni to anyone with a gastrointestinal issue."
"This Dr Surapaneni actually listed to me and looked at my paperwork from the hospital and was able to get tested done in 2 days! I am very grateful as I had gone to a different Dr week before and he was young and would not even listen to what I had to say or even look at my hospital reports plus he wouldn't even have looked at me until mid September! Dr Shaw was his name, young G.I. Dr... he seemed to just treat his patients as a number! I would highly recommend Dr Naveen Surapaneni for you G.I. needs. Very caring Dr and nice!👍"

I also feel Blessed to have him as part of my team of doctors. Thanks to Dr Z. Dai for the referral. Thanks Memorial Hermann Southeast for having Marvelous Doctors."
"Dr. Surapaneni is fantastic gastroenterologist. For over a year I’ve had unexplained stomach pain & nausea that increased every time I ate. Other doctors didn’t want to dig and some even tried to tell me my unexplained pain was depression. Dr. Surapaneni was diligent with my case and really tried to figure out what was going on. A couple of surgeries and a PEG tube later, they found my old Nissen Fundoplication was too tight and I had a hernia that didn’t show up on any imaging. He’s been a great doctor I can depend on, and with his help I’m slowly getting my life back!"

He is one of the best GIT Specialist and let him be your Doctor!"
"Dr. Surapraneni is hands down the best GI doctor. He takes time to listen and then suggests a course of action or treatment. He fully explains in easy to understand language why he suggests certain things and does not make you feel silly whatever your question might be. He seems to have a grasp of the latest medical thinking and does not shy away from explaining about past treatments that have been superseded by more modern procedures. I have also spoken with his PA who is equally easy to understand and also takes time to listen and suggest. A very worthy student of an excellent doctor I would recommend Dr Surapaneni to anyone anytime."

The only thing negative I have to say is if you have first appointment of day for 730 am and they ask you to be there 30 minutes early they dont mean that they will actually be there that early.
