Testimonials

“I’ve been seeing Dr. Long for several years and never had a bad experience. He listens and always seems determined to get to the bottom of my issues. His NP, Louise, is very knowledgeable, and they work well together. Now I don’t even have to go into the office, I just had a web visit with him. I’m very pleased with him.” – Karen (Healthgrades)

“I have been seeing Dr. Long for years. My life changed with the procedures he has done over the years. Answers all my questions!! Is very nice, caring, and down to earth.” – Dawn (Healthgrades)

“Dr. Long’s office is first-rate starting with the office manager. My appt was scheduled for the wrong date, either my mistake or the lady I spoke with. In any event, Dr. Long’s office manager put me on a waiting list and got me in the next day. Dr. Long was very good at listening to my issues and wasn’t in any hurry to do unnecessary procedures, which I greatly appreciate. He explained what he thought we should start with (an antibiotic) and go from there. Dr. Long’s nurse was so helpful in getting the prescription filled for me. She was a true lifesaver. I’m due for a colonoscopy this year, so I’ll be back to schedule that with Dr. Long. I wouldn’t consider going anywhere else. Top-notch organization at the Cedar Park location. Five stars from me.” – M (Healthgrades)

What Are the Best Treatments for Hepatitis B and C?
