Patient Reviews
Jun 19, 2025
I feel safe with him and I believe that he has my best interests at heart. After a horrifying experience with another GI doctor, I spent two years looking for a good gastroenterologist in Austin. I was so disappointed with my findings that I considered continuing my search in San Antonio and even Houston. That was about six or seven years ago. I have since had two colonoscopies with Dr. Sperling and have also been treated for other issues. Dr. Sperling went to the trouble to speak with another doctor about my medication and then called me himself to discuss my options.Importantly, most everyone else who has had my condition has resorted to an extremely bland and insanely boring diet, but Dr. Sperling put me on a high fiber diet and I have thrived.
