“My son was scheduled to have surgery on his hand. We met Dr. Arvay . She was AMAZING !! She was very compassionate and took time to answer all our questions and concerns. Dr. Arvay was kind enough to talk and laugh with us. She definitely made both of us feel more at ease. Once the operation was complete, I had a couple of questions. Upon calling the office the staff and billing department were extremely polite and helpful. We definitely will recommend Tejas Anesthesia to family and friends!” – Melissa Spiekerman
“I’ve only had two surgeries in my life, the first experience was awful (post surgery) because I was sick to my stomach for hours after I was released home. Because of my bad experience I was worried when I was told I need to have a second procedure . This time my anesthesiologist was Dr. Davenport (Tejas Anesthesia), I told him about my experience and he was so knowledgeable and our conversation about anesthesia comforted me. The recovery was a breeze, nothing like before. Thank you Dr. Davenport for taking that time with me.” – Rose Carr

“My appointment was a pleasant experience. The staff was very attentive and genuinely kind. I met with Dr. Ellis and he provided me with options on how to best treat my pain effectively. His attentiveness and empathy with what I was going through, helped me get what I needed to get back to my normal lifestyle. Thank You!” – Silvia Saucillo
“I visited Dr. Ellis June 25th. I’ve had lower back pain since my 4th back surgery 11 years ago. He gave me what I’d call a temporary pain block at L3 and L4. I had INSTANT relief. OH MY GOSH. It lasted four days, but I go back to see if they can do the RFA procedure on me. I’m READY ! ! ! ! ! He is a very compassionate Dr and I’ve already recommended him to a friend. Believe me…….stop reading and make an appointment.” – Chuck Graham

“The nurses and the doctor I saw were amazing. Very good at shots and blood draws; didn’t feel a thing. I appreciate their care as I had an unexpected visit while visit San Antonio.” – Victoria Hatley
“Love this hospital. I had my daughter here 4 years ago and had a great and wonderful experience with labor and Delivery staff. I’ve also been here to the emergency room when my gall bladder was rupturing and I had a great experience as well. They saw me right away and took care of me. I am currently in here (labor and delivery) now 26 weeks pregnant with some symptoms that’s were a little concerning and I had to stay over night and the nurses have been the best ever. They are so nice and really make me feel comfortable. They joke around with me and are very nice and caring. They even tried to take my vitals without waking me up so I can get some rest ! ❤️ Love this place and the experiences I’ve had here. Will recommend to everyone I know.” – Mariah Avilez
