Thank you for making this a great 1st time experience!"

I would definitely recommend him."

I’m a huge fan of him and his staff. No nonsense and quick but caring. Absolutely recommend. I’ve had 3 and finally got an “all clear” result."
"I would highly recommend Lone Star Endoscopy for a colonoscopy. The staff is so polite and helpful. I felt very welcome from the time checked in. I followed their printed instructions precisely and was complimented by Dr. Weber for a great preparation. He answered all my questions very professionally. His staff often asked me if there was something they could provide me. They called to check up on me and even sent me a best wishes for good health card. I want to thank Janie, Nate, Shawana, Pam, Leslie, Matie, and Sueane for contributing to my successful procedure. I’ll be back in 5 years."
"From the moment I arrived i got the best attention. They moved the office from Grapevine to Southlake. Nice environment to be welcoming even during the pandemic. Staff was awesome. I've been taken care of by Dr. Spady for years and he's always been kind and considerate. Always please when he tells me I'm good for another five years. Hats of the all staff!"

"A pair of ambulance rides after midnight resulted in emergency room visits and my introduction to Jody Houston, MD. Nearly three years later he is my guy if you need to stop a G.l. bleed. More importantly, he is my guy for persistent follow-up. His diligence helped to expand my lineup of medical specialists like hemotologist/oncologist. 🤕Yea!! Seriously, bad news went to worse news to good news. So, if you ever need a great gastroenterologist in a great group practice find your way to him at Texas Digestive Diseases Consultants (TDDC) in Southlake/Grapevine."

I had just had a proctocolectomy with j-pouch which was successful but was experiencing a complication and my GI retired. Dr Levitan just really cares about solving the problem.

Being a retired nurse, I’m always interested in how medical offices function and how the staff communicates with the patients and other employees. Everyone involved in these facilities is professional, caring and efficient in their job. Dr Steffer and staff always introduced themselves, especially important in this era of face masks. That is very important to me . Thank to everyone involved in my recent care!"
"I have seen Dr. Lacey for several procedures over the last year, and all of them have been excellent experiences (despite the not-so-great nature of them).

I would highly recommend using Dr. Lacey and his team in the future."

"I felt nothing but comfortable when I entered the building for my colonoscopy. Nothing but respect for all the staff who assisted me and for Dr. Weber. I felt completely relaxed and at peace knowing Dr. Weber was doing the colonoscopy. A colonoscopy is not a pleasant thing to prep for but my experience was 5 stars."
"Dr. Houston, the staff, and my complete visit was professional, warm, and had excellent communication. No one looks forward to a procedure. I won't be looking forward to my next one.

I highly recommend him👍🏼"

I highly recommend Dr Lacey and TDDC!"
