The staff and Dr Cowling were awesome and glad that they recommended me to go straight to the ER. My vitals were extremely low. I'm much better now. I'd like to thank UTHealth so much. Excellent service.

Yes, when I made the post-op appointment, I was told everything was available at the office. I didn't need anything. I assumed I had no payment. It was a post-op visit. When I got there, I was charged for my co-pay and when I expressed my concern about post-op visit, I felt like the lady at the front desk just was rude about it and went on and on about it for a little bit. That was the only problem I had with the office that day.
