We strive to keep the reviews trustworthy, honest & fair.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I have always had a good experience with Dr. Cline and his staff. He is very knowledgeable, friendly, and has a very good sense of humor, which makes him fun to talk to about my issues. He answers my questions in a.way I can understand and even makes you relaxed enough to even ask the questons, since it can often be awkward to ask these types of questions. Nouh Aa

He is the best doctor in Austin. There are only 2 options in Austin area for Colorectal and I went to the other doctor due to the ease in appointment and realized the mistake when I went and had to find Dr. Cline whom I had difficulty getting appointment but once I met him it was worth the wait as he is very good and very knowledgable

I had a radical colectomy with J pouch performed by Dr. Cline in February of 2004 due to a long history of ulcerative colitis. Dr. Cline explained all my options, the risks and the benefits of the procedure. My quality of life has been excellent ever since and I thank him for giving my life back to me. He is an excellent surgeon, compassionate and always takes time to make sure his patients are well informed.
